Modding was very unstructured at this time, mods could not ping everyone in mod channels so mod votes went unoticed. [[Venomi]] began to integrate a lot of stuff from other meme servers, such as the Dumbass role, Mod votes, Mod applications and the wiab chat, which were stolen from the [[Deep Fried Memes|DeepFriedMemes]] Discord (all staples of the modern [[Whenthe]] experience, thanks to Venomi) This also included the inclusion of the Shapiro Squad, Doge Squad and Garfield Gang roles, which would all become their modern equivalents. Garfield Gang was shortlived and died very quickly. Roles were originally given based on messages sent. However, this was changed to actual quality and time spent on server, despite there still being a remaining debate on what that meant.

===Bruhmoment Troubles ===
===Bruhmoment Troubles ===
Around this time, while the server was at 500 members, [[Cmonster]] made an offshoot server which would become [[Bruhmoment]]. There were a lot of jokes in it about raiding and nuking OkBR, which later made a user tell this to Kirbizia. Her reaction was to ban every single person from Cmonsters server off of OkBR, including around half the mod team and active users. Venomi tried to stop Kirbizia from committing server suicide by telling her to unban all its users, which failed. People stayed on Bruhmoment and continued to talk there.
In August 2018, while the server was at 500 members, [[Cmonster]] made an offshoot server, referred to as "drama server" at the time, which would later become known as [[Bruhmoment]]. There were a lot of jokes in it about raiding and nuking OkBR, which later made a user tell this to Kirbizia. On August 29, Kirbizia decided to ban every single person from Cmonster's server from OkBR, including around half the mod team and many active users.<ref>{{Cite message|author=selim.tn|date=August 30, 2018 at 12:09 AM UTC|content=<@!161939643636383753> kirbizia banned everyone that was in cmonster's server|server=𝓓𝓕𝓜|channel=general|link=https://discord.com/channels/442214776660164629/442214776660164631/484514974073356340}}</ref> Venomi tried to stop Kirbizia from committing server suicide by telling her to unban all its users, but failed.

===Kirbizia Resigns, LunarShadows Becomes Owner===
===Kirbizia Resigns, LunarShadows Becomes Owner===
With Kirbizia's growing unpopularity, Kirbizia decided to quit moderating the server and subreddit. Kirbizia would go on to apologize to Venomi and Cmonster for some of the stuff that happened, in a now long lost tweet. Ownership of the subreddit was given to [[GrantVsZombies]], while ownership of the Discord Server was given to [[LunarShadows]]. Lunar was a relatively new user at the time, and its suspected that he was given owner in an attempt by Kirbizia to kill the server. As the new owner, Lunar unbanned everyone who Kirbizia banned for being a member of Bruhmoment.

In December 2018, the token for Ohtred, the "Other [[Uhtred]]", was leaked, allowing a malicious user to log into the bot. Since the bot had very high permissions, it caused catastrophic damage in all the servers the bot was in. The bot token was leaked by accident when Uhtred accidentally uploaded it to the bot's GitHub repository without realizing it. The person who hijacked the bot is unknown, nor is their motive. This led to OkBuddyRetard being nuked on December 30, 2018. When the bot was nuking OkBR1, there wasn't any staff online with a role high enough to stop it. The bot would delete messages and channels and ban people. Before banning a user, it would DM them "OWNED BY OWNAGEBOT." By the time someone could stop the bot, the server was in shambles.

After the server was destroyed, the appeal server became a refuge for several members. The remnant of OkBR1 was renamed to OkBuddyRememberance, and Lunar deleted it sometime the following year. [[Doctor Penez]] and [[Veemo]] attempted to make an unofficial OkBR2 server, but a new one that was linked to the subreddit was created and they were kicked out.

On April 24, the server reached Level 1. #serious, the channel for discussion over heavy topics, was deleted on April 25, 2023 due to inactivity. Level 2 was reached on April 28, and Level 3 on May 5. The day OkBR5 reached Level 3, the custom invite was set to '''atheism''' (as it couldn't be set to "okbr", despite no server owning it at the time). Two days later, the invite was changed to '''teamfortress''' after a server named Atheism requested the atheism vanity. Two days after that, on May 9, the invite was changed to '''ragecomics'''.

==== Ban of Cygnotto, End of the Event ====
==== Ban of Cygnotto, End of the Event ====
[[Cygnotto]], also known as Coqui, was a very active user on the server for about two months, earning himself the "Ok" and "Buddy" roles there. On July 18, 2023 he was banned from OkBR due to his controversial and "degenerate" history in past servers, mainly his past actions on Irony Hub. The banning of such an active user stirred up some tension among the server's members, causing active users such as Cmonster, 1moretr4sh and [[sexyboyy69420]] to leave that day, although only the last of them didn't rejoin moments later. This, however, seemed to have began a stagnate period of server activity, shifting its remaining center of activity closer to its Minecraft server and its drama.

The leaving of active and well-liked users such as [[Goorm]] and [[Calcuiator]] earlier that month also contributed to the decline.


On July 19, 2023, with <s>one</s> two days of the event remaining, Myszak restocked everything except for the One of a kind Vanity Role, and increased the rewards given from work, slut, and crime. That same day, OkBR5 reached 1,500 members, and subsequently partnered with [[OkBuddyReiner]], an irony server about Attack on Titan. Unfortunately, the partnership was rescinded the next day after the owner came online, but it still gained the server about 40 members. On July 21, 2023, Myszak kicked UnbelievaBoat, officially ending the summer event.

On July 22, 2023, [[The Irony Hub]], a spiritual successor to Irony Hub with direct ties to the server's former staff members, was opened, becoming another factor in OkBR5's declining activity. OkBR partnered with TalkAsia, the official Discord server of r/2Asia4u, on July 23, 2023.

=== Halloween Event ===
OkBR5 reached 2,000 members on September 29, 2023. Like the previous thousand milestone, Myszak announced another seasonal event, the Halloween 2023 Seasonal Event, on the same day. This event brought back the economy channels, as well as adding an anonymous #confessions channel and a [https://www.yourworldoftext.com/~Myszak/okbuddy World of Text page], because Myszak couldn't get the server's own PixelPlanet clone that people actually wanted.<ref>{{Cite message|author=myszakszyszak|date=September 29, 2023 at 21:16 UTC|content=Hello, we have reached two thousand members.

*Jumbo Josh, Skibidi Toilet and Banban, i bet these words give you a terrible pain in your mind... Imagining these scary monsters trying to attack you...*
 
What exactly will be in this event?
> Confessions Channel
A timed Confessions Channel will be made, where users will be able to FULLY anonymously submit their confessions, these can be anything, and also cannot be pretty much traced back. So you can write the most unimaginably horrible shit ever there and not be punished, however it's only limited to text so whatever. The channel is already in the server but i've been waiting for an opportunity to release it.
> Murder Games
Hunger games, user submitted characters fight in an arena.
> OkBR World of Text
( https://www.yourworldoftext.com/~Myszak/okbuddy ) will be released for everyone in the subreddit to write stuff in, make ASCII art and so on.
 
> **Meme Brackets**
Users on the discord server and subreddit will be able to vote on their favorite OkBR memes in a bracket like tournament, im pretty curious to see what will be the most famous OkBR meme... Maybe it's <:obamacrying:1100032224411254875> or <:doge:1100159706900734093> who knows.

I don't know, maybe it could become a new flair or something, or perhaps a new widget on the subreddit could be added, appreciating such beautiful meme.
 
You can DM me and suggest a meme to be added, worry not i've already made a large list of these. Taking into consideration many various arts of memeology... I know, im such an expert.

On October 28, 2023, Mets suddenly rejoined and was instantly re-promoted to Mod thanks to Saucy. Warmest promoted himself to mod again using commands on November 21, 2023, and was simply allowed to keep the role from that point forward. The vanity was changed to /okbr at some point around this time.
 
=== Mini-nuke and aftermath ===
On November 26, 2023, due to disagreements with the higher-ups and other members of staff team, as well as what he saw as the server decreasing in quality and activity, the moderator The decided to start some havoc before leaving. He pruned members who hadn't logged in for 1 week, as well as made r/, the most common role on the server with over 800 members at the time, pingable for everyone. After posting a gif of the character [https://www.detectiveconanworld.com/wiki/Ai_Haibara Ai Haibara] from the anime series ''[[wikipedia:Case_Closed|Detective Conan]]'' (known in the west as ''Case Closed'') saying goodbye, The pinged r/ and promptly left the server. After ensuing some confusion, a few users began spamming the r/ role, some with porn and advertisements to The Irony Hub, leading to it being mentioned 186 times total. Over 370 members were lost, bringing the member count from around 2,199 to the 1,820s.
 
In the aftermath of the mini-nuke, The was immediately banned, along with some users who spammed r/, most of whom were soon unbanned. The continues to be banned to this day and will most likely stay that way due to Myszak's lasting resentment towards him. The server recieved a small activity spike in the days following the nuke, but it quickly plummeted after most of the remaining active members migrated to [[Bazzy]]'s server, [[Can win with great friends]]. Bazzy was soon banned for promoting his server, despite being one of OkBR's most active members at the time. OkBR's #general had a total message count of 37,413 during November 2023, followed by 7,969 during December 2023 and 2,663 during January 2024 (counted on February 10, 2024). Soon after the mini-nuke, OkBR lost level 3, and even lost Level 2 for over a month. CWWGF took the /ragecomics vanity in December, which remained linked in OkBR's #info channel until Myszak finally edited it out on January 7, 2024.
 
On January 28, 2024, Myszak created [https://steamcommunity.com/groups/okbrgroup a Steam group] for OkBR and pinged everyone about it, leading it to grow to a total of 26 members after 2 weeks of existence.
