#Suggestion - political memes channel
1 messages · Page 4 of 1
the mods only have themselves to blame
Incentivizes artificial activity yeah
all of this could have been avoided if they simply let me lurk and enjoy memes, now I gotta sit here and grind.
@true token has just advanced to level 3.
ayyy 7 more to go
At the very least this is just one thread that can be easily muted for the grind
you're right, i better move my grindset to #gatehouse for everyone else's inconvenience.
I would probably avoid deliberate antagonism
So I'll just hang out here and quietly grind
Sure enough, ya got the thief role
He's been trolling, if you really want access to the courthouse you can just have like normal conversation for like 2 hrs
Also at this point this suggestion thread is useless
I think it should just be shut down
It is kinda moot yeah
@marble barn has just advanced to level 6.
Political memes exist again albeit role locked
bunch of bs
welcome to the grind I guess 
you expect discord users to be normal???

@marble barn has just advanced to level 7.
Ah Care left. Understandable.
Well I guess its working for you
Theres been quite a few who have left since potato closed
Also this is incorrect, I barely progessed from a 2 hour conversation
I already had a few levels and I've been trying to engage more in the actual server with a bit of time spent in this thread and related ones as well
i just find it amusing that potato chat can no longer have the serfs that farm the potatoes
Then it wasn't a very active 2 hours of conversation 😛
Why must you torment me so?
Incoming Shadiversity Great Potato Famine
Accomplishment unlocked: being Irish
too late
you have been sentenced to loathe the english forevermore
@rustic horizon has achieved level 10 and has been promoted to <@&488039558013779968>.
The farmer who owned you took pity on his serfs, and got them declared free, you are now a free man! Yay!
ey, I can see potato memes again, thank you bot
Beercules casually lurking on my progress
I can't help it. It's my nature as a French-speaker to be horrible and creepy
"hon hon hon eating frogs" or something I guess
🐸
The only thing to make this worse:
Also having light mode
So if hate the English, I can be free 🤔
Also, what time period/region is this?
Wikipedia tells me that Serfdom became increasingly rare in most of Western Europe after the medieval renaissance at the outset of the High Middle Ages. But, conversely, it grew stronger in Central and Eastern Europe, where it had previously been less common (this phenomenon was known as "later serfdom").
Is this prior to the High Middle Ages or are we Russian?
Well prolly not Russian considering Shad is King rather than Grand Kniaz or Tsar
Actually wait there's a time requirement based on the presence of potatoes
Potatoes were introduced to Europe in the 16th century, after serfdom was rare in Western Europe
Therefore, we are somewhere in Central/Eastern Europe but not Russia
Are we in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth?
Always were
This is only mildly preferable to being Irish

If that pinged Royal Court, my bad, I was just copypasting the info from roles to jokingly analyze whether Shad simultaneously had the King and Duke roles, confirming the PLC theory
Its just fun..
that did indeed ping us, but that's fine.
theory debunked.
here's shads roles
....holy hell....its a xandark...
indeed Jester
I have been inactive due to having exams
and then working at UKGE.
now I am back, and I have another exam

Remaining candidates are Austria, Hungary, and Prussia
Austria would be expected to be out of the running due to the title being either Emperor or archduke buuuuut
King of the Romans (Latin: Rex Romanorum; German: König der Römer) was the title used by the German king following his election by the princes from the reign of Henry II (1002–1024, emperor from 1014) onward. The title predominantly amounted to being the emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, a title long dependent upon coronation by the pope.
The title originally referred to any elected German king who had not yet been granted the imperial regalia and title of emperor at the hands of the pope. Later, it came to be used solely for the heir-designate to the imperial throne between his election (during the lifetime of a sitting emperor) and his succession upon the death of the emperor. The title became functionally obsolete with the abolition of the requirement for emperors to be crowned by the pope in 1508 but continued to be used as part of the emperor's formal titles until the end of the Empire in 1806.
So Austria is still in the running for now
Hungary was also a kingdom in the relevant time period
Prussia only became the Kingdom of Prussia in 1701 so time to start checking serfdom in each history
"Prussia abolished serfdom with the "October Edict" of 1807, which upgraded the personal legal status of the peasantry and gave them ownership of half or two-thirds of the lands they were working. The edict applied to all peasants whose holdings were above a certain size, and included both Crown lands and noble estates."
So there is a 106 year period where we could be Prussia
"In Hungary the heyday of the second serfdom was the seventeenth century, and it can be said to have ended in 1767, when the empress Maria Theresa limited peasants' labor services. Her son Joseph II went further in 1785 when he abolished the personal subordination of peasants to their lords."
Hungary appears to be a strong contendor until we look at when wide-scale introduction of potatoes took place
The government of Hungary ordered the population to start growing potatoes in the aftermath of a great famine that affected large areas of Europe between 1770 and 1772.
That's 3 years after the abolition of serfdom so Hungary is eliminated
Lmao
In the Austrian Empire, serfdom was abolished by the 1781 Serfdom Patent
Let's check the introduction of potatoes
This is not knowledge I ordinarily possess to be clear, I'm bored and on google
Found an article ranting about Frederick the Great, this may take a while
So whats still in the run?
Austria and Prussia currently
Oh thr potatoking. Enjoy
Hold on I forgot Bohemia existed, lemme check if it meets the criteria
Okay, the title of Bohemia's ruler was indeed King with the caveat that it was largely abolished as a kingdom in its own right though as Austria is running on the King of Romans title, this may be moot. Next up is when they abolished serfdom and when they introduced the potato.
Gotcha, is there a better place? I figured we could joke around here now that the channel is basically obsolete
I'm gonna move to #historical-life for now
I think that's a good idea
Mh... Or #gatehouse, its General enough ig
I have the same rank as Shad 
yup lol
he's not too active unfortunately, busy guy
To be fair. I expected as much. Since he has a lot on his plate and if he is going to be social it would probably be with his family and closer friends
as it should be.
Particular reason why? Except maybe work schedule+3 channels?
it's pretty much that plus having a family to raise.
he appears from time to time though.
though he hasn't been talking here since a year and a half ago.
Still seems more active than some other e-celebs in their discords 
True
Brandon F.'s old server was better, but he's a smaller youtuber and had to nuke it.
Source: modded there.
his old fan server became a flaming pit of racism and toxicity, even by the standards of the re-enactment community.
plus the new owner's account CTE'd along with most mods giving up on the server.
his Patreon server has held up better.
I wonder why...
Paywalls and reduced anonymity either ward off the 12 year olds or make people behave more
You just explained my opinion on free healthcare in short

Huh
