Age of Emergence - Late 4th to Late 5th Grade

Origins in VO

At first, Discord was only used to communicate with our friends in class. From [nato's] experience, it was most prevalent in VO, with Michael, Ernest, Nathan, and Derrick being notable OGs. People who were caught with Discord were punished by teachers, most notably Derrick, who got his computer taken away by Ms. Champney (now Mrs. Irish) twice for using Discord. Michael’s first account was deleted after pressure from his parents, but he made another one, which is active today (not affiliated with Memes and Shiz or Juanity).

Origins in Muraco and #FISH

Another side of the Age of Emergence came in the creation of #FISH by 105mm APFSDS and Kaleson. At the time, it was one of the biggest and most active servers with an average of 50 users in the server. These two groups, VO and #FISH, were completely unaware of each other’s presence but existed at the same time period. #FISH (add other servers if needed) could be regarded as the ignition of Discord amongst the 2025 community as many users came and went through it, inspiring them to create their own servers.
