On September 29th 2016, after the original [[Rusticity]] went down due to the admin no longer wanting to host it, Taylor met with Bishyaler with a proposal to rename his server to Rusticity, essentially stealing the brand. Work was done to replicate the server almost exactly, quickly gaining most of Rusticitys userbase back overnight. However, the former admin, angry for some reason, paid a large amount of money to continually DDoS the server, bringing it offline several times until Bishyaler could set up adequate protection. Playerbase lose was minimal, and the server continued for 2 weeks with few hitches. However, in typical BMW fashion, the true killer was infighting, as BMW had largely split up in an effort to not immediately raid everyone off the server, and the splintered factions began petty arguing, mostly coming from [[Ashy]] and his crew. By the end of the wipe, the server was dead, and Bishyaler pulled it down to prevent further security concerns from popping up. | |||
