At one point only 11 messages were sent in the server for a whole year.
  
-On the 22nd of January 2017, //runie// joined the server. +In January of 2017 [[user:runie]] joined the server, and three months later he was made an administrator. 
-Following almost three more months of little activity, runie was made an administrator. +As administrator, //runie// made changes to the server such as adding a basic set of rules and roles. 
-As administrator he started making changes such as creating a basic set of rules and adding roles for server and forum staff. +The invite link to the server was also posted on the [[community:AutoHotkey forums]], causing a trickle of members joining.
-In addition an invite to the server was added to the forums, causing a trickle of members joining.+
  
-Driven by the need to quickly pull up pieces of AutoHotkey documentation, //runie// and //GeekDude// started working on a Discord bot. +In June of 2017, a custom Discord bot written by //runie// and [[user:Geek]] was added to the server. 
-On the 23rd of June 2017, a crude version of the bot was live including documentation search and other simplistic commands.+The bot could pull up arbitrary documentation from the AutoHotkey documentation pages and perform other simplistic commands.

-After several attempts at making contact, //runie// (the only other administrator at that time) started to worry about the future of the server if the owner had seemingly abandoned it. +Because of the inactivity, the server ownership was transferred to //runie// by Discord.
-On the 15th of December 2017, //runie// started a process with Discord to get the ownership of the server changed, and almost two weeks later on the 28th the ownership was transferred to him.+
