Buttonverse MC

THIS IS A ROLEPLAY SERVER!

The Reddit Button was a 2015 April Fool’s day prank on the popular website Reddit. The Button had a timer that counted down from 60 seconds and would reset every time someone pushed it. The one rule was that you can only push it once. Depending on the timer and whether or not you pushed it you would recieve a flair (a coloured dot) that others can see. This spawned many beliefs and factions concerning this button that lasted for a month. Wars were fought and alliance were formed.
