'''THE DOGELORE CIVIL WAR''' ~ ( Late May - Mid June, major events happened on the 17th of June and the 18th of June.)

The Dogelore civil war has many names, such as the June Conflict (Amongst Loyalists) Fatherland Liberation War, Anti-Zeemist Campaign, June 18th Incident, Second Dogelore War or the Dogeneral Square Massacre.<ref>[https://dogelore2.fandom.com/wiki/Dogelore_Civil_War Dogelore Civil War page on the r/Dogelore fandom wiki presumably made by Penguin showcasing all of the other names of the Civil War.]</ref>

by many it is seen as one of the most important events in the history of the dogelore discord server, dogelore would look extremly different if it would be the zeemists that won the conflict.

The initial start of the conflict dates back to around late May and early June, when [[Hhh]] a friend of [[Zeemgeem]] received moderation permissions for helping the development and progress of a few parts of the server, the current owner [[Kirbizia]] was heavily disliked amongst much of the staff team,   

this all led to [[Emma]] and a few other members of the community asking for an ownership transfer from Kirbizia to Zeemgeem, Kirbizia's inactivity and not doing much in terms of actual moderation gave Emma a few good points, the concept of an eventual ownership transfer started gaining steam in the public channels of the server over the course of the week, this upset Kirbizia who on the 17th of June banned Zeemgeem and Emma together with an announcement.  

 

''No more advertising by me and i'll become more active i've been a kinda shitty owner tbh''  

''trying to say i was going rogue and that i would be more likely to delete the server, which is off the goop. They kept trying to get the server and i didn't want to get a LunarShadows type situation so i banned them instead of a demod as they would constantly cause drama and server politics.'' </blockquote>In this announcement Kirbizia stated that she was not happy with the position she was in, and that she was a terrible owner. She also promised that from now on she would be more active, this did not work and users were still somewhat upset.

Eventually she unbanned Zeemgeem and Emma with the intentions of letting them talk out things with Hhh as she passed down ownership of the server to them. This officially begins the inevitable collapse of the old dogelore system and the beginning of the Dogelore Civil War.<ref>[https://i.gyazo.com/de68cdb0092740cab2c4c3eae2fc3985.png Kirbizia's announcement about her passing ownership to Hhh.]</ref>  

There were two main sides in this conflict, the zeemists who were loyal supporters of Zeemgeem receiving ownership of the server and the loyalists who wanted Hhh to stay as owner of the server.

Led by Zeemgeem, considered to be the losers of the civil war, all of the main leaders were banned aswell as demoted,

members of the Zeemist faction have been accused of breaking many integral rules, mass pinging aswell as spamming and causing mass havoc amongst the dogelore community.

It upset much of the staff and as time passed by tensions started to build further more. The staff started suspecting that Hhh never even wanted to hand down ownership to Zeemgeem and only gave the owner role to somewhat calm down things for a small amount of time,

 

eventually the conflict slowly started entering the public dogeneral chatroom and an eventual banishment of two known users, [[Gabe]] and [[Flat Rat]] who spiralled the drama into a gigantic mess and the moderation team could not possibly have controlled it,

as the conflict escalated many channels were bombarded with rulebreaking imagery, span and protests from the Zeemists, eventually [[Ultra]] pinged @everyone with a copypasta that was posted by Gabe that detailed the toxicity of the moderators, Zeemgeem
