On May 1st 2021, [[Prude]] quietly launched [[BEEFYBOYS.CLUB]] in his ongoing efforts to decentralize much of The WIDEVERSE, in hopes to avoid [[The Final Bop]]. Much of his experience and reference for setting up the instance came from Alex Gleason, developer of the software the site uses, and Graf, a fellow admin of one of the larger right-leaning instances, Poast. Poast had not long been on Fedi, only launched in January of the same year, but had quickly become the landing spot for many right-leaning personalities fleeing Gab and Twitter. This included [[Prude]] in his initial exploration of the platform. As such, there was a natural friendship between the users of BB.C and Poast in those early days, with Graf occasionally lending assistance with Prude's early troubleshooting. Additional members of [[Beefy Boys]] trickled in thereafter. | On May 1st 2021, [[Prude]] quietly launched [[BEEFYBOYS.CLUB]] in his ongoing efforts to decentralize much of The WIDEVERSE, in hopes to avoid [[The Final Bop]].

This period of peace was short lived, as around November of 2021 Poast experienced an increase of refugees from Gab due to disagreements mostly stemming from Groypers and their associated Podcast heroes. As such, the personalities on Poast began to take a turn for the worse. Whereas before most posts were lighthearted and fun, they now were mostly shitty takes on current politics ranging from hating Donald Trump (also known as Trump Derangement Syndrome) to simping for dead Iranian generals or rationalizing being on welfare. Tyler saw a prime opportunity to poke fun at these retarded takes and found them to be easy to provoke into a hellthread where they would ree for 12+ hours. | This period of peace was short lived, as around November of 2021 Poast experienced an increase of refugees from Gab due to disagreements mostly stemming from Groypers and their associated Podcast heroes.

He became so infamous prior to the shift from BEEFYBOYS.CLUB to BEEFYBOYS.WIN, that most of the more prominent wignats had him blocked and muted, to avoid getting dookie chuted. This of course changed with the domain move, as with a new account he was no longer blocked, and able to once again troll with little hinderance. This proved fatal for Poast, as when | He became so infamous prior to the shift from BEEFYBOYS.CLUB to BEEFYBOYS.WIN, that most of the more prominent wignats had him blocked and muted, to avoid getting dookie chuted.

This proved fatal for Poast, as when Tyler made fun of a Nuremsperg for condoning looting (an act they had just a year prior condemned as being something only people they saw as subhuman did), Borzoi (one of the podcast hosts/"intellectuals" that Poasters simped for) attempted to dunk on him, not expecting the Slavic chad to pull out his ace. | ||
