A blatant and disappointing theft.
Hello! We’d like to thank you for taking the time to read this. It’s a wild ride, so buckle up. We are the admin team of Exy Days RP. You may have seen our posts in the AFTG and roleplay community tags. For those of you who are unfamiliar with us, we’re a Discord roleplay server, based on the All For the Game Trilogy by Nora Sakavic. As far as we know, we’re one of the first. Exy Days RP was founded in June 2018. As of June 2020, we are 2 years old. This is a major accomplishment for any roleplay server, but it’s particularly impressive for a server geared towards an indie/niche fandom.
This server has been a labor of love for the past two years. We built the server from the ground up. One of our hallmarks is our unique stat system, bi-weekly IC games run with a dice mechanic, and bi-monthly IC events. The game system, xp system, solo training guidelines, fame and notoriety system, and application were designed and created by the Exy Days RP admin team. This, along with our original team and associated OCs created by our members, is something we’ve always been very proud of. We’re consistently praised for our uniqueness, and the fact that it’s what sets us apart from other smaller, newer AFTG servers.
Imagine our shock and disappointment, then, when we discovered that our server had been plagiarized. Before we spill the tea, we want to address the fact that this has taken a toll mentally and emotionally on each of the admins. The plagiarists in question were people we once considered friends, as well as former server mates. This level of theft is not only petty, it’s extremely distressing and disrespectful. If you’ve spent any time in the rp community, I’m sure you can understand what a violation of trust this is, as well as a personal affront. This has been a slap in the face. It undermines the hard work we’ve put into our server, and the creativity we strove so hard for. For roleplay veterans, you also, I’m sure, understand that this is considered a cardinal sin.
We debated how to address this issue. We ultimately decided to provide the tumblr and Discord community with the facts. The truth is unbiased and irrefutable. In the following post, we’ll be sharing screenshots highlighting the key aspects of our server that were stolen by this server. We ask that you refrain from harassing the server mentioned here. While we’re upset and hurt by the actions of these individuals, we just want to share our side of the story.
Here we go!

I’m just very sad to be honest. I don’t want to fight, I don’t want to attack anyone but this server has been something very important to me and something me and the other mods put a lot of time and effort into.
