drama YouTuber called TheBrettBurnz started to make content relating to Sherbase and the UTTP, inserting himself into the Gacha Life fandom.<ref>https://archive.is/FmI9X</ref> | |||
The trolling tactics and | The trolling tactics and artstyle of this period was heavily inspired by the antics of Stephen Larson years prior.

Many new officers would join during this period, either through the invitation of old members or the recruitment servers created by Astrodia. | |||
