New Facepunch Republic

''This page is for the group founded in 2019. For the group of Facepunchers that played in 2015, read New Zion.''

See Also: The 2020 Facepunch Protests The New Facepunch Republic or NFPR is a group/faction dedicated to good vibes. It follows the system of the nearly 10-year old Faction, the Facepunch Republic.

It began after chezhead returned to 2b2t in November 2019. The group quickly became widespread, with Vab_ito being the first Vice President. After some minor domestic debates between Jeffrey_214, OMEGAO000 became the VP a few months later. After the group began to decay when Jeffrey took office in May, 2020, the group saw a mass influx of players after a former gold member (now member) began initiatives to campaign the republic and brought a mass following to it. It is currently an actively rising group.

History
chezhead returned to 2b2t in November of 2019 to revive the republic. He began the New Facepunch Republic, which also entered some conflicts with a player named 0Nebulast122201, later revealed to be an Armorsmith friend via Voice chat. Vab_ito lead the republic strong throughout its heyday although it died down due to griefing and conflicts. OMEGAO000 became the new VP, and things were still going strong until Jeffrey_214 became the new VP (with chezhead being inactive and multiple bases getting griefed and opened). Then, things slowed down a bit until Fredmodulars joined. Surprisingly, he rose the ranks quickly, soon becoming the head of media, and created a large influx of players to join (500% daily average increase in 10 days compared to Jeffrey's 15 in office) and boosted application numbers).

In May 2020 many new projects started one, after another. The republic members participated in rebuilding Castle Hatehart led by Fredmodulars, but it was quickly found out. Another project was 8k8k - base that was the tribute to 2k2k and most of the builds in the base were made in Beta style intentionally. The biggest project was SBA (Spawn Base Alpha) - base that was supposed to be a meeting place for every group member. After Tabb0 completed the construction of a Great Hall (the biggest building at SBA) in 24th May Leadership started first meeting where the future plans for the group were discussed.

The Republic was also compromised of two important bases, SBA and Kickass Cove, by the autistic Hybrid on May 26th, 2020. They soon recovered with an Initiate (mike120500) making a new base named Camp Oakwood as well as Fred creating Steel Outpost, which was soon passed onto CattynGMD when Fred and a friend created Fort Hardware & Software 6.0. The Republic has also started a weekly news initiative for members to read, as well as other mail that is delivered on Wednesday to all bases.

In 31th May new troubles appeared. Many members, and some people in leadership started to question Jeffrey's competences to run the Republic. It quickly rose to protest led by Fredmodulars. Initially civil chat quickly became a shitstorm. Changes in leadership were made, and Fredmodulars came back to his previous position.

How the New Facepunch Republic is Different than the Modern-Day 2b2t Group:
''When Chezhead joined in the earlier days of 2b2t, the group mentality, although existent, was masked to a large extent. You didn't associate as much to a single group as to the general player-base. The general group drama was non-existent. Follow the simple rules and nothing will happen to you. This mentality is still carried over to the new iteration of this old group. The rules set-forth are simple, the group is generally totally removed from the inter-group drama, and attempts to unify all players together no matter their backgrounds. This group still runs under the principle that the only goal is to have fun and do something bigger than yourself. That's the reason why this group is generally appealing to newer players, because how long you have been playing does not change the consideration of the decision to accept someone or not.''
