Conflict between BMW and Goons existed as long as BMW itself. There was a long and rich history of certain Goons getting butthurt over this or that and gagging at gnats, most notably when Spacedad joined the Rust crew for all of one day and noped out within 12 hours. One of the most notable clashes between BMW and Something Awful was when [[Cal Worthington]]s "Wanted Posters" caused the mods of the forum to lock the years old griefing thread permanently for "doxxing". The main Rust thread was also lock temporarily as [[FactsAreUseless]] bumbled about trying to involve himself in it. The event blew over but left a reputation for BMW among the Goons. One of BMWs most vocal opponents was a forums poster named Cheen aka McCain Av Faggot, who had long hated BMW because they wouldn't play on Vanilla servers.

Throughout the war, a certain sect of members of BMW who disliked Taylor would begin plotting against him in various ways, an event that would culminate twice in The Incel Uprising and The Sauce Affair. | |||

The roots of the war formed when Serious Overchill and Cheen began harassing [[SA Discord]] admin Tempus Thales about Taylors twitter account, featuring such hateful tweets as "Potato chips are banned in the ethnostate". Their campaign culminated in the Fornite thread, where a chorus of Goons cried about all the hateful Nazi alt right mods in SA Discord, and encouraged people to detour from there and instead join Serious Overchill. TT, at the time, shrugged it off but remained ignorant of the true intents of the campaign which were to bolster Serious Overchill and take away from SA Discords presence. FAT32, an admin in SA Discord and Serious Overchill, tried to downplay that last point, while also being in TTs ear about Taylor being a Nazi. | The roots of the war formed when Serious Overchill and Cheen began harassing [[SA Discord]] admin Tempus Thales about Taylors twitter account, featuring such hateful tweets as "Potato chips are banned in the ethnostate".

The first turn in the war began with Taylors banning from the Something Awful forums, because of the earlier mentioned innocuous tweets. With this and the concept that BMW was post-Goon, TT officially began preparations to remove Taylor from his admin position and the discord. The latter part wouldnt be revealed until years later during Operation Overlard, and at the time, TT played ignorant and that the discord was simply "trying to go in a different direction". | The first turn in the war began with Taylors banning from the Something Awful forums, because of the earlier mentioned innocuous tweets.

Prior to the ousting, Taylor had planned to leverage the groups access to gain access to the development of [[GDN]], which had stagnated due to Kales lack of interest, as a way to increase BMWs recruitment, by finding troubled users using text recognition. This basic concept would later be used as the basis for the cover story during Operation Overlard. | |||
