Line 1:
A political movement created by [[Thraldrek]] in late 2019, early 2020. The Garman Division can now be seen through its extensive sign placements throughout [[Mount Augusta (CivClassic 2.0)|Mount Augusta]]. Though reaching recognition on multiple discords, the existing [[Oldfriend]] elite saw it as a mere annoyance and ignored it indefinitely. This movement is largely connected to the [[CivCallCentre]].
 
== History ==
Line 6:
A Newfriend, fresh off the spawn, appeared near the middle of the server near [[Icenia]]. Already cultivating a reputation for harvesting Newfriends, it was quickly apparent that [[Garman]] was in trouble. Chatting with CivCallCentre agents, they eventually fell silent, most likely in the vault area of [[Icenia]]. Viewed by some as an injustice to Newfriends, they spoke out.
 
In a final stand of activism, the "Garman Division" was created as a voice for all the Newfriends lost to pearling and bullying. Signage was posted up throughout [[Mount Augusta (CivClassic 2.0)|Mount Augusta]] and the international rail lines going through the city. Extensive protesting was done on the discord server for [[Mount Augusta (CivClassic 2.0)|Mount Augusta]], but it was largely ignored. The movement is now largely inactive.
 
== Impact ==
While the movement has largely been a minor blip on the [[CivClassic]] radar, it did have some impact on the culture of [[Mount Augusta (CivClassic 2.0)|Mount Augusta]]. A spotlight was shone on the inequalities between Newfriends and Oldfriends, and a conversation was allowed to be had. Unfortunately, Newfriends today are still murdered in cold blood as they attempt to navigate the new world they have been born into. The common excuse is that they are alts that need to be pearled, however that does not help with the ongoing retention issues, especially if evidence is not presented to the public.
