The December Return

Reminder: The wiki doesn't encourage raids or any such activity. This is merely a documentation of a conflict in the BNCS.

Background
2023 faced one of the most severe droughts of trolls and other users ever. Users like getting banned and not being able to return, while SOTI leaving due to boredom. With the site being stale, there was a new group of users. Users like (BigNateFanForever1),  (or also known as Gina's Love Monkey) and finally. These new users were met with annoyance from some users, such as and. So, they made a "virus" all around GoComics. This didn't last long, but it was the biggest event that the site had seen in 2023.

Planning A Raid
During the month of November, a user known as Detective Slicker decided it was time for a raid. However, due to the wiki's policies about raiding, they quickly stopped it. However, this event might've inspired multiple users, such as SOTI and MrLongDo. On an unrelated note, Detective Slickler went on a mental health break for a bit but came back later.

And there, began the December Raids.

The Sides
Before we begin the events of the return, we must first start with the people.

Sides
It's very clear to see that the Anti-Trolls are winning in the "People" category... but would they win in this war?

The Beginning
On the 15th of December, 2023, trolls started returning. Due to the trolls, multiple people started to take a break. Marking the start of the December Return. There, an account known as "Nate_Wright_Fan!!" posted a comment.

''"Y’know what I hate? Trolls. These trolls are ruining the site, and they only have been here for like what? Two days? And you know what? I think we should start an “Anti-troll Group”. They’re so annoying, and degrading this section. Why don’t we make this group to STOP the trolls foreverrrr!" - Nate_Wright_Fan!!, 2023''

It was obvious that this was a troll. The account was formed/used after the trolls began popping up, and the text was poorly made. It began a 33 reply argument. The troll account tried to prove that they weren't a troll, by stating "Who said I was a troll?" and provided a flimsy reason why they made the account.

The Middle
After that, PolarBear got a comment featured, which SOTI insulted him for. This made him take a break, along with Ember. He returned two days later, where SOTI then got banned.

Two days go by with minimal trolling activity until the 19th. There a 200 reply comment formed. The trolls, SOTI and MrLongDo bashed DD and BNFF1 on an argument. Even under the warning of no trolling behavior, placed by.

This comment read: "Well, I had a pet hamster as a kid, and it wasn’t a walk in the park to take care of him. R.I.P Chuckles you lived a great one year on Earth. Also, I visited the Big Nate Go Comments Wiki for the first time yesterday. Not exactly Fun Central. Random conspiracy theropod about BNFF1 being BBFF2, huh? The place was also filled with trolls. Anyway, have a great day!" Unknown to him... it would not be a good day. It was a battlefield.

The Words of Wisdom
As PolarBear read the thread over the day. He felt terrible. He allowed the trolls to come! He created a battlefield. A big battlefield. A battlefield that would be known, as "the PolarBear Comment Battle". Over the battle. He said some words of wisdom to Daphne's Doodlebug, passed down from his father.

''I really respect you and like you as a person, but I think it’s time for this to end. This has been going on for hours. I agree with you, SOTI and the rest of trolls are immature jerks, but my dad told me this when I was a kid: “'Bullies are like clowns. If you laugh at a clown, they feed on your energy because it’s their job to make you laugh. If you react to a bully, they feed on your response because it’s their goal to make you feel like crap. But if you don’t laugh at a clown, they get fired, because, well, they failed the number one objective of their job. Kind of like bullies. Don’t show a reaction, and eventually they’ll quit picking on you.'''”

PolarBear is a new user, but I believe he is one of the first users stepping down the right path. This battle will be remembered up there with the OG MartySays Comments. It shook up the GoComics, by a lot. While most don't talk about it, you can still feel the impacts. The main users of the trolling, SOTI and MrLongDo, got banned on the wiki. Currently, they're trying to salvage their reputation. It is unknown how it will be in a few days from now. Also, DD deleted most of her comments on “the PolarBear Comment Battle” after PolarBear convinced DD that it was time to let things go. SOTI got banned for the 80th time on GoComics for his role in “The Battle of PolarBear", as well as MrLongDo. In the end, the discord server for the raid was revealed on the 23rd of December.

The raid was over. All was well.
