== A New Url ==


After a rather long period of the gg/cum Url bringing a couple of not so nice users it was decided that the New Url would be Discord.gg/sus


== Custom Invite URLs for Irony Servers. ==
This did not cause that much hate at first, with the Among us memes being relatively new at the time of the url being set. It also grew the server to unimaginable lengths, from around 11 thousand users, to now 65 thousand.
Many irony servers that are not affiliated with any subreddits have been known to use many methods of gaining active members onto their server, one of the most known methods is using [https://support.discord.com/hc/en-us/articles/115001542132-Custom-Invite-Link| Custom URL invites], this method has been used by servers
ever since it's addition onto discord. Custom URLs have gotten even easier to get due to discord lowering the needed number of boosts to gain the final level which grants the ability to add a custom URL for your server. Servers such as [[Comedy Heaven|I.C.U]] or [[Irony Hub]] have been using this method to gain members ever since their existence,
(or in I.C.U's case, ever since [[The Rapture]].) Irony servers usually choose their custom invite URL to be something meme culture related, or something which is overly obscene. An example for this can be the [[Dogelore]] server, before the gg/sus custom URL invite change. The server had it's invite set to gg/cum. This invite is now used by a somewhat related irony server called Cum Palace, known to have a few dramas with the [[Federal Troll Agency]] in the past.
=== DogeLore's new URL ===
[[File:Customurl.png|500x500px|thumb|The custom discord invite URL of DogeLore.]]


After a somewhat long period of Dogelore having it's custom URL as gg/cum, bringing a somewhat handful portion of users, a few of which became active on the server the staff decided that due to a recent increase of Among Us memes, featuring the [https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/sus-among-us| Sus] meme the new invite URL would become discord.gg/sus.
=== Start Of Drama ===
This new custom invite brought tons of new users onto the server, inevitabely this caused tons of havoc amongst the already chaotic community of DogeLore, thanks to all of the new members that were totally unaffiliated with the r/DogeLore subreddit most of the things related to DogeLore completely dissapeared within just a few months,
this custom URL also made many of the already active members of the community move to the more secure and somewhat elitist channel, #casual. With general becoming more of a place where all of the newbies would have conversations.


=== Drama ===
After many users joined the server general did not feel "the same" as it did before the server went "mainstream", much of the active userbase flocked to the #Casual chats, making them relatively active. The new url also led to massive hate and discrimination towards new users. Casual is nowadays known for having the older users whilst general is a place for the newer ones.


With the r/DogeLore server becoming an absolute giant when it came to the number of members that were joining the server, it felt somewhat different to the active userbase, thanks to that there was tons of discrimination towards the newer users and an alienation between the staff and active members,many petitions were made to change the URL to something else, there was a slight chance of the URL being actually changed to gg/Doge but unfortunately, an unrelated youtuber by the name of [https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCpBjivUwgVnxtpJoO_ljzAw/videos| Critiquing Doge] had already taken it, and all attempts at them giving the invite over failed. The petitions regarding a change to the URL got sent so many times that the staff fully disabled the #petitions channel, never bringing it back afterwards.
The url is hated mainly because of the rulebreaking members it brought, after the meme became stale many people were not fond of the newbies that recently discovered the meme. Many petitions were made in order to change the url, it was planned for the url to become gg/doge but it had been already taken, the petitions could not do anything but show the distaste of the url towards the moderators. All the mass petition spam did was just make the staff despise the petitions channel more.


Users hated the URL mostly because of the annoying and rulebreaking members, ignoring the otherwise quality members which came with this URL change, and the server hitting huge numbers when it came to it's popularity.
=== Nowadays ===


=== The Problem Now ===
Nowadays the url is somewhat ignored, members of the server have grown to live with it and without the url the dogelore discord would not be as big and relevant as it is today.
 
As time went on the issue with the URL had been somewhat forgotten, many users who had problems with the URL have already left the community, instead joining [[Josemon]]'s server, or any other small friend server, the members who still remained have largely learned to live with this change, as in most cases the benefits outweighted the downsides.
