| This was a brief 'conflict' between the [[Civ servers|Ex-Civ]] Discord Server of [[Jötunheimr]] and the Reconstruction Era Discord Server. It lasted from around 22:07 Eastern Standard Time to around 02:30 Eastern Standard Time ending with two members of Reconstruction Era being banned and three members of Reconstruction Era being muted.

| | Comrade was very active on [[Typhon Networks]], briefly the Reichsmarschall. His social clique originated on Typhon, and he would remain associated with some of those people after the server's decline. He encouraged people to rely on him, often acting as a leader in [[RTS|strategy games]] even if other players are not willing to listen to his commands. These games create a fertile ground for sowing division which allows Comrade to remain de facto leader. |

|
| |
|
| [[1234fireball]] was invited to the Jötunheimr by [[StrawberryCrisis]] around the September of 2021, with the server consisting of ex-civilization minecraft server players. The people present on the server (for the most part) appeared to already have a low opinion of Fireball viewing him as the same person they played on [[Chernarus Soviet Socialist Republic|CivEx 1.0]] and [[Communi Res Publica Septentrionis|TheRealmsMC 2.0]] with.
| | Comrade's time on Reconstruction Era mostly consisted of him trying to maintain 'dominance' over his social group and trying to extend that power over other people on Reconstruction Era. His presence drove a lot of his former associates and victims from Reconstruction Era. It came to light that he committed sexual abuse leading to his expulsion from the community in full. |
