The '''Oversaturation Bunch''' | The '''Oversaturation Bunch''' was an event within [[The Speakonia Community|Speakonia Community]] history that took place during late summer 2022. It saw the creation of multiple new Speakonia groups that caused widespread criticism with some members of the community, especially veteran members, due to the sheer overabundance of new groups being introduced and their creators do very little or nothing with them. The name is derived from a term coined by [[IronYoshi1212 Productions|IronYoshi1212]] during his 2022 retrospective. While not as damaging or heated as the [[The Unestablished War|Unestablished War]] a decade prior, it caused some friction within the community. | ||

During the late 2000s-early 2010s, as the [[The Barney Bunch|Barney Bunch]] was quickly morphing from its [[Newgrounds]] iteration, many members began to expand the greater lore within the young community through the creation of various new groups. Some would persist through like the [[The Pubic Family|Pubic Family]], others would quickly fade into obscurity like the [[The Garfield Gang|Garfield Gang]]. The latter option would usually be the outcome. The [[The Foot Fetish Community|Foot Fetish Community]] would up this and bring forth several new groups like the [[The Ketchum Klan|Ketchum Klan]] and [[The Repulsa Republic|Repulsa Republic]], as well as expand on more obscure groups. While the main Speakonia Community didn't pay any mind to them, the Foot Fetish Community's influence would be felt by some members | During the late 2000s-early 2010s, as the [[The Barney Bunch|Barney Bunch]] was quickly morphing from its [[Newgrounds]] iteration, many members began to expand the greater lore within the young community through the creation of various new groups.

While the main Speakonia Community didn't pay any mind to them, the Foot Fetish Community's influence would be felt by some members, introducing groups like the [[The Humongous Bunch|Humongous Bunch]], Hanna Barbera Bunch, the [[The Nega Barney Bunch|Nega Barney Bunch]], and even more with users like Speakonia Plus adding an absurd number of new groups. Eventually they would fade into relative obscurity. Some criticism was levied by the main Barney Bunch users, but for the most part, the two communities stuck to their respected canons and rarely clashed. Sometimes a new group would be introduced every other year. This would all change by the start of 2022. | ||

2022 would be a very eventful year for the Speakonia Community, for better and for worse. Notable in this instance was the introduction of Digi Data, a user who was around during the start of the 2020s but rarely posted. That all changed when he introduced his own Speakonia group known as the "Bluey Bingos", which, in typical, tried and true new group fashion, touted themselves as the ultimate threat to the Barney Bunch and other Speakonia groups. They wanted to stop the Barney Bunch from raping or killing anyone whenever they go to an establishment (or do whatever), as well as claiming that they cannot be stopped due to having an army of robotic duplicates, holograms, and other random pieces of technology. Digi Data would also add a bunch of characters into his group in almost every video he uploaded, but would rarely do anything with them. | 2022 would be a very eventful year for the Speakonia Community, for better and for worse.

That would all change in late August-early September, where users like MrBBFootFetishist, Moana2016, StraightFusion and several others went overboard and created an absurd amount of new groups, with IronYoshi referring to it as "the Bunch Month" due to the overwhelming number of groups introduced. Many would receive an announcement video and little more. Some wouldn't even make it out of the development phase. This would lead to some backlash within the server, due to the excessive spam users were receiving, as well as these new groups never being utilized outside of their introduction. As the month went on, this trend slowly started to die down, as many of the users introducing these groups would start posting less frequently until becoming pretty much inactive. Many of the groups that were introduced also faded away, but StraightFusion assured that he would be using the 4 different groups he introduced in his videos. | That would all change in late August-early September, where users like MrBBFootFetishist, Moana2016, StraightFusion and several others went overboard and created an absurd amount of new groups, with IronYoshi referring to it as "the Bunch Month" due to the overwhelming number of groups introduced.

By the end of the year, only a small fraction of the groups introduced were being used. IronYoshi, in his 2022 retrospective, briefly talked about the oversaturation of groups during the year, stating that, while he wasn't against adding new groups into the community, he did stress that anyone who does add a new group actually utilize them in a meaningful way outside of their introduction, and that they don't do any of the ploys Digi Data did with his group. StraightFusion would also state that he wouldn't be adding anymore Speakonia groups in response to IronYoshi's criticisms until some of his newer groups he made are used more. | By the end of the year, only a small fraction of the groups introduced were being used.

Some | Some members like StraightFusion and RoboticBloxxer said they may have been at fault, as StraightFusion said the creation of the Pansexual Pack and their roles in [[DW4Ever 9-17]]'s videos and the Great Speakonia War may had inspired others to create their own groups such as Barney Bunch Woodchuck, as he said the Pansexual Pack was listed as an inspiration to create the Transgender Troop. RoboticBloxxer said creating the Marceline Mafia may had also added fuel to the fire. | ||
