PCBFism

PCBFism is the ideology of PCBF (Polcompball forums discord server) It serves as the successor of Polcompball.fandom/f was mainly founded by Rayz9989#3705, and was modernized and dragged upwards by several people, most notably  NuohLamperouge,  Heinrich Cheung,  ComradeGanyu,  Comrade Shrek,  Polfax,  Typicalfan1,  Pirate Tails,  ThisIsMyUsernameAAA,  General Avelicius,  Chirotesla, and more.

Beginnings
at August 11, it was announced that fandom will be closing the PCB fandom wiki for good on September 7(although it actually closed earlier on September 1), almost everyone was in shock, seeing their beloved wiki where experiences, friendships, and labour were made there, about to die, the moderators of the wiki began moving it to miraheze in an attempt to save it(the attempt succeeded), and Rayz saw the very horror right in front of rayz's very eyes, as rayz knew that once the wiki was gone, the forums, a place of fun, debates, memes, and other great stuff, would go with it.

however, Rayz was determined to not let the very spirit of the forums die, and with the addition of discord's new feature in that time, threads, an idea propped up into rayz's head, and that idea was a Polcompball discord server which recreated the forums via using the threads function, thus rayz began work on it and not long after, the Polcompball Forums discord server came to life. once it was finished, Rayz sent the link to the PCB fandom forums where several users clicked the link and entered the server as these users didn't want to lose the fun of interacting with each other.

Later on... (The Reforms)
By now most of this page has become outdated, PCBF suffered from several incidents:


 * At first Rayz9989 wanted to reward the people of PCBF for contributing and making the server active for so long despite rayz being gone and inactive for a while. Therefore, rayz held several elections to allow people to choose their Mods, contributing to the popular image of PCBF that formed at the time, since the Mods were on the side of majority who enjoyed a great deal of freedom in what they could post, i.e the server did not have much in the way of moderation.


 * Eventually with the help of some progressive Mods that entered the Staff team, Rayz9989 realized that this kind of server was unsustainable. Especially following the fall of real PCB (Polcompball Discord) it became obvious that PCBF must clamp down on fedposting if it wants to survive on Discord, so rayz recruited many Staff members, especially ones willing to enforce the rules, giving them a mandate to keep the server clean.


 * These actions, in addition to an incident involving the Polandball Wiki Discord Server (PBWDS) where several PCBF members joined after a link was posted to it in PCBF, resulting in people coming over to "troll," which was dubbed a raid. This lead to Staff members of PBWDS contacting the Staff of PCBF denouncing the raid and calling on them to take administrative action against those who engaged in the raid. Many members whose actions were judged to be particularly egregious were banned, but some "raiders" were too important to PCBF to be banned. Unfortunately PCBF was not able to fully comply with the demands, however, they attempted to maintain cordial relations with PCBWDS, allowing them to stay and monitor the server, and banning all mentioning of Polandball or PBWDS in PCBF so ensure something similar never happens again. Once again, this prompted harsher moderation to try and restore the rapidly-deteriorating reputation of PCBF. PCBF was perceived so terrible by the public that some people from the rival and officialized/canonized pcb server PCBMH (also known as PCBM, Polcompball Miraheze) were advocating the deletion of PCBF and they searched for any malcontents missed by the Mods of PCBF to screenshot in order to paint a bad picture. The Mods of PCBF used these complaints to delete messages in violation of the rules and sometimes ban the authors.


 * Those last two events lead to the more Conservative/Anti-Moderation wing of the PCBF community becoming increasingly discontent. There were some incidents such as the creation of PCBNH (Polcompball National Haven) that furthered the friction between the Pro-Moderation and Anti-Moderation forces, since PCBNH served as an alternate server with less moderation, which may have tried to compete with the use of PCBF, but this was mitigated thanks to Rayz9989 who continuously brokered peaceful relations and made an agreement that PCBNH was to only serve as a backup, not a competing splinter, so although occasionally active, PCBNH did not pose much of a threat to the activity of PCBF as a whole.


 * One of the most influential figures within the PCBNH side of things, a leader of sorts, was AdmiralNuoh, among the conservatives, he had the most power in PCBF as the oldest elected Mod and now being a Supermod. However, he began to plot things that were contrary to PCBF's goal, such as hostility towards PBWDS staff. A group chat of most PCBF Staff members other than Nuoh was formed, and they often discussed Nuoh's actions. This culminated when Nuoh, in a group chat that inadvertently contained the owner of PCBF (Rayz9989), detailed his plans to overthrow and coup PCBF and establish himself as the new supreme overlord. Obligatorily, Nuoh was demoted for conspiracy against PCBF (aka seditious libel). This led to Nuoh complaining and a deterioration of relations between him and rayz. Thus, Rayz9989 and the rest of the PCBF Staff team, began to lose favor from the PCBNH side of the community.


 * Some high profile bans like Ukraiana, BERNHE, and Veliki occurred.

The New Era of PCBF

 * As PCBNH and PCBF began to part ways, a new era of PCBF emerged, one dominated by people who supposedly "hated" PCBF fitting in with the PCBM crowd, but also used the server and began to rely on it for friendly conversations and fun events. MoonlitMayonnaise, Council, Polfax, Whiztale, Bery, Bsaheed, Pirate Tails, TIMUAAA, LordAtom, Bacon, Affiliated, AquaHeart, and MedicsChaotics were some of the people active during this time


 * During this time, the infamous user Quark was allowed to be in PCBF, and he was very active, but received some mutes due to misconduct, and some people tried to ban him. However, this all came to a head when Mayo and Council spread word that Quark had tried to groom Mayo. Quark was then banned from the server.


 * Users expressed discontent that Quark had not been banned earlier, and Council, who was especially disgruntled, engaged Rayz9989 in a verbal conflict that ended with rayz being angered, resulting in rayz posting the very long now-infamous rant "I really was a coward." One day later, rayz apologized to Council after she apologized, and reinstated her as Mod, ending the conflict.

The Beginning of the End

 * After the attempted coup and Quark incident, a devastating tragedy occurred greater than anything else in pcb history. Rayz9989, unable to bear the weight of the situation, resolved to leave Discord for an indefinite period of time. And instead put 3 of rayz most trusted friends, ItsDanny101, Based and Jedpilled, and Bowie, with joint ownership and leadership of PCBF.


 * The PCBF community had growing discontentment, feeling that the new leadership was inadequate, since all 3 of the leaders were fairly inactive. Although Danny, Jed, and Bowie put forth their best effort to achieve rayz goals, the server began to stagnate


 * Unfortunately, the fate of PCBF was sealed when Polfax, having the position of Supermod, grew increasingly paranoid that Quark had alts in PCBF (Quark already had alts inside, this was a well-known fact). Polfax proceeded to rougely delete all invites to PCBF, effectively closing the server and eliminating its growth. The Owners could not help PCBF as its activity slowly decreased in favor of other servers like PCBMH, Kevin's, Somedude's, Femboyreich, and Esoteric Hangout.

The End?

 * After Rayz9989 attempted to resume some activity on Discord, Jao used the previous events to spark controversy, and eventually the broader public was turned against rayz, rayz became ostracized within the PCB community as whole, this would eventually lead to rayz being banned from PCBMH, eventually after all of these events. Rayz losing favor with people and being a very disliked figure most likely contributed the downfall of PCBF because of the next event.


 * Seeing no more use in attempting to continue PCBF's life, Rayz9989 attempted to shut down PCBF by privating all the channels and redirecting all server members to join PCBMH via the only message in one of the two remaining channels of PCBF which announced its closure. However, rayz kept a channel where the public was still allowed to speak, and this channel had no restriction such as slowmode, so there the public expressed their disconent. This made rayz realize that despite all the hate for PCBF, people hated rayz for closing it down, so rayz reinstated PCBF

The End.

 * PCBF activity furthered decreased, even though Rayz9989 took back ownership, since most people left after the server had its closing, and few returned, the userbase of PCBF was much smaller, and with its invites gone, there was no chance of growth.
 * One day, BERNHE contacted Rayz9989 explaining that he wanted to fix PCBF to restore it to its former glory. Rayz believing there was nothing to lose, abided and gave BERNHE unlimited power, stating that it was his responsibility now, but remained the oversee the reconstruction.


 * While for some time, some activity returned to PCBF, it inevitably died down.


 * BERNHE's reputation of fedposting and being aligned with not-so-good elements of the community led to an inability to properly enforce rules, especially since he unbanned many rulebreakers. This led to PCBF being examined by Discord, who then issued what is essentially a death sentence, a formal warning to PCBF, giving Rayz9989 a chance to have everyone evacuate the server, before it was shut down forever.

Post-Mortem

 * Today, PCBF's legacy lives on with its successor, Beryist Society. Which is run by its namesake, Bery. Many of the former members of PCBF and wiki users reside in this server which has had a much more clean reputation throughout its history, for being welcoming, non-discriminatory, and friendly. Beryist Society also has a sister server, Jonahist Society, which is also used by some of its members.
 * However, recently, lacking a PCBF to hate on, PCBMH has begun rearing its head to Beryist Society, developing a newfound hatred of this server. This is due to Beryist Society's hate and trashtalking of prominent PCBMH members, Jao, Libby, and MCS.

Owners/Administrators

 * Rayz9989: The founder of PCBF. Several boneheaded decisions of his regarding server management and PR contributed to the accelerated death of PCBF. Attempted to leave PCBF behind him multiple times, by giving power to his three friends (Bowie, ItsDanny101, Based And Jedpilled), then YellingYowie, and then, finally, BERNHE0504.
 * The Big Three (Bowie, ItsDanny101, Based And Jedpilled): The first post-Rayz clique that took over the zombified corpse of PCBF. Attempted to revive the server in vain. Eventually, at an unknown date, their reign ended and was replaced with that of YellingYowie, who assumed the "Leader" role.
 * YellingYowie: Took over after The Big Three went away. Didn't really do much, since the server was irreparably dead by the time he took over.
 * BERNHE0504: The last "true" leader of PCBF and the one who arguably killed it off for good. Convinced Rayz to give him power, which he used to sack a good portion of the current mod team, remove hate speech laws, and relax the rules in general. Unsavory people ended up joining due to BERNHE's connections with the many fedposting groups of PCB. Activity spiked during the first few weeks of his rule, but eventually stagnated as people got bored. Eventually, possibly due to PCBMH interference, the server under him was given a warning by Discord, causing Rayz to pre-emptively kill it in order to save everyone's accounts.

The Damned

 * PaleoFabius: A resident National Socialist who unexpectedly went completely insane and began to be extremely racist in both PCBF and the DMs of Fabius' enemies. This incident rallied the entire community, and he was chased off of most PCB Discord and the Wikis. Was possibly responsible for the tightening of Hate Speech laws.
 * Quark88: Perhaps the most infamous user in PCB history, Quark had a massive impact on PCBF. Like almost everywhere else, Quark was despised on PCBF while he was there, but he was tolerated because Quark was a literal walking meme by that point. Eventually, this all culminated into an incident where MoonlitMayonnaise leaked DMs between her and Quark that painted Quark in an extremely suspicious light. This was enough to get Quark kicked out of the greater PCB sphere for good, but for the rest of PCBF history, he kept a network of highly-concealed alternate accounts within the server, which caused utter turmoil within the politics of PCBF, eventually driving Polfax to kill PCBF permanently by disabling the invite links based on paranoia.
 * BERNHE0504: Before becoming the leader of PCBF, BERNHE didn't have the cleanest track record. He was removed twice from PCBF; one for helping Afunhumaninter spread the personal information of a moderator around PCB for the lulz, and another for threatening to dox a PCBF mod that he didn't like at the time. In between that, he was known for his constant fedposting and rage baiting, as well as his affiliation with "Old Left" circles.
 * Ukraiana: Ukraiana was another high-profile ban that shook PCBF. He was banned for saying some suspicious things about LGBT folk, but some people argue that he was baited into doing so.
 * TheHellenicStorm: An adherent of Chetnik ideology, TheHellenicStorm was known for extreme fedposting and rage baiting in the zoo channel. Eventually culminated when Whiztale got tired of them and gave them the boot.
 * Velki Skif/LogicalGrey: Perhaps the most egregious fedposter that has ever existed in PCB (outside of the Deep Casual sphere), LogicalGrey has been banned many, many times from PCBF, and yet, somehow, he kept on coming back. Was eventually banned for good when he crossed a personal line with Whiztale, which led him to give LogicalGrey the boot. Permanently.

Foundations and Beliefs
PCBF was originally founded on principles of democracy, good for the commmon people, and welcoming of all into the community. It developed into a more and more unwelcoming place over time, and the ideals of democracy were shed. And the "dark humor" was lost as rule-breaks were gradually more suppressed. PCBF was a doomed server due to reputation it acquired in its early days as a lawless pedophilic hell. And it futilely tried but was never able to break free of its bad perceptions to achieve its true goal of serving as the official continuation of the forum system that existed on Polcompball and Polcompball Anarchy (Fandom) Wikias. Its official status was never regained, and its goal of enabling a diverse community where people would be able to express themselves freely was thrown to the hounds as in its later days new joiners would be bullied for their beliefs. In the end, everyone hated it, either for what it was, or what it wasn't.
