The process wasn't easy. The members of the G+ community did have to deal with Malcom Axel Norberts, who was an Anti-Barney Bunch troll, but this was quickly resolved, and he appeared to have turned over a new leaf and joined the G+ community.

In March 2017, another G+ community emerged titled [[NewSchoolSwellness]]. This community was established by members who were active at the time, primarily Skewt, [[ShelltoonTV1]], Prime, Firestorm, and a few others.
