Polandball Amino

Polandball Amino is a failed experiment.

History
Polandball Amino was created in July of 2016, Its creator, Rhineland, created it due to the decline of members on iFunny.

He promoted the new Polandball community on iFunny, but many people said it would fail, though Rhine managed to get 20 members on the first day. But still, some members on iFunny still did not like the idea of a new community.

Around a year later the amino had reached 1,000 members and became a separate app from the Amino platform. Unfortunately, its creator Patriot Rhine starting March 15, 2020 has declared total anarchy to the Amino.

Pesky poles invasion
A YouTube channel called “planet fáktow” made a video detailing the Polandball community, he had an additional segment for Polandball Amino at the start, this caused a great influx of Polish speaking people into the amino. They were told to speak English or they would be banned, most Poles didn't change resulting in a ban, but the problem was more than 1000 Poles were in the amino so banning them was hard, so the leadership time role members to report Polish speaking members that weren't changing. This was a problem. Some people started reporting Polish people, even if they spoke English. So to resolve this the members that reported others where banned for a few days. Eventually, the drama died down and the Poles were gone.

The 1st PBA war
Known as The UAE Crisis

Around August 2017, TA banned a long favourite leader for PBA, UAE for posting "inappropriate content", so as you'd expect, people complained. But because of this TA started banning all kinds of people for absolutely no reason. Then people started making anti TA posts which only furthered the problem. It started to die down when leaders told people to stop making anti TA post. But it went away slowly, and the effects of the war can still be seen today.

The 2nd PBA war
Known as Fight for PBA

In early May 2018 (on a different amino) Rhineland posted a Nazi related comment on a random post giving him a 2 day strike. In the days following, many members posted anti TA content trying to stop TA from banning innocent members.

The 3rd PBA war
Known as the Massacre of Polandballers;

In Early March 2019. Things began happening. And Rhineland (Creator of Polandball Amino) got banned for allowing memes on his Amino. Soon. Over 2,000 people were banned and over 10,000 people were striked by TA. 75% of polandballers got banned or striked for no actual reason. While many people began reporting people for no reason and TA would still ban the innocent people. That happened in just 2 or 3 days. Then once. One of people posted that Propaganda postings were allowed. Which lead to people posting Propaganda of TA doing such stuff to Polandball Amino. Which lead to massive hate of TA. TA actually stopped at some time. But it kept doing so. Rhineland luckily has still his second account.

Death Faking
In February-March 2019. Many people had a idea to fake their deaths. And fake them having sicknesses (Example:Leukemia,Insomnia,etc). Once it came to Ellie's Idea. She was one of most kindest persons in the Polandball amino and got trust by others. Then she began lying she has leukemia. And soon she faked her death. But everyone catched that, and she got banned. Many people still think she died of leukemia, but no. In March of 2020, there also existed a brief and unofficial "Elliversary" event with the hashtag #1yearelliething with a grand total of 5 posts involved with it, taking place around one year after the incident was revealed a hoax.

Poletale
This was a game concept by a group of members, it was a cross between Undertale and Polandball. All the game was was to Undertale with Countryball's in the place of the normal characters. This lead to a new rule banning any polandball related crossover with a fandom. Polentale later moved to the Undertale amino, where it died a slowly.

Stand with Hong Kong
In mid 2019 PBA staff started a campaign similar to the TA war about the ongoing Hong Kong protests tagged #StandwithHongKong. Every participant would be automatically awarded the title "HK Defender". Some days later another movement emerged in response, "#StandwithChina" although few people took part compared to the HK movement.

The Leader Civil War
During a couple days before New Years' Eve of 2019, it had been exposed that Patriot Rhine had been expressing his votes between favoritism to certain curators. During the last hours of that night, Rhine then proceeded to remove all curators who opposed him and with a flashmob of posts about an "F U" to him. The few that stayed in power were still surprisingly competent enough, virtually winning anyway with a somewhat majority. Rhine went on the next week to make excuses on January 6-8 about him leaving for jobs and college.

Temporary split of the original PBA and the forming of PBA+
On March 11, Patriot Rhine held a poll saying if he should delete the Amino. 4 people total said yes seriously, while at the very minimum 41 said no. In the same post, he had mentioned suggesting the deletion of his Amino by Team Amino, albeit declined. In the comments of this post however, was a user named lil uzi pixel that suggested he himself ban certain users (which turned out to be all former curators and leaders) once the event took place, followed up by removing sections of features to the Amino (e.g. the Reddit/YouTube tab, Help Chat, etc.). Shortly after Rhine woke up on March 15, he did just that. Widespread panic and multiple Amino counterparts were made shortly after, and he made everyone that stayed either agree with his ideology that it would be reduced to simply a spam site before TA could reconsider his entry or leave.

However, after hours or panic, the Polandball Amino was the battlefield for a coup d'etat which eventually removed Rhine from his power, however the damage was already done.

After minutes of searching for an idea, the Polandball+ Amino (It was being planned in 2018 as a backup during the TA conflict) was made along with other similar Amino counterparts and it was shared into the original PBA, where many people joined. Today it is a ban appeal center.

Two days later, the original Polandball Amino was declared back online, and Patriot Rhine was finally banned by Lond for good. Debates about his possible alternate accounts are still ongoing. A period with 4 leaders in less than a year came: after an election a couple of days since Rhine's defeat, Kielce was defined as the new agent of PBA and later Connor, Lond again and Laxative in January 5 2020.
