{{Main|Paris Commune-Norlund Conflict}}
In late July 2021, the player [[RainOfPain125]] from [[CivRealms]] and [[CivUniverse]] started playing on [[CivClassics]], choosing to settle close to the north of Acadia with a group of newfriends and establishing '''The No State Commune'''.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/op7cyu/hereby_declaring_the_no_state_commune_tnsc_now/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 Public Declaration of The No State Commune on r/CivClassics]</ref> This immediately resulted in an uncomfortable situation for Acadia asbecause due toof previous events on CivRealms with prominent members of Acadia including [[Cortwade]] and [[JuniorTide]] heldhaving badpast blooddrama with Rain, the two of whom TNSC considered to be "violent anti-communists".<ref>[https://i.imgur.com/9ifd3Zc.png Public Diplomacy Stances of TNSC, specifically their stance on Acadia. Warning: This stance was updated after Acadia and others tried to destroy TNSC, and thus it calls them shitters and imperialists. Before this, it did not have the "Acadia has directly attacked.." section, or the section at the end naming hostile users]</ref>
=Events leading up to conflict=
Despite the way lots of Acadian government members treated Rain formerly in Norlund, peace and co-existencedétente was always the most clear and obvious option for all members of TNSC.<ref>[https://i.imgur.com/9ifd3Zc.png Public Diplomacy Stances of TNSC (again)]</ref> Acadia claims they had the same idea, that they initially meant to settle for an "uncomfortable peace".{{Citation needed}} And yet conflictConflict between the two nations started from the very beginning, despite their best intentions.
===JuniorTide's house "griefed"covered with signs===
JuniorTide reported and provided a screenshot of one of his Acadian homes sporting signs on the front such as "NORTH KOREA BEST KOREA" and other kinds of left-leaning statements. With no evidence, heHe accused Rain as the one who made them. Rain fired backreplied reminding JuniorTide that he was an [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarchism Anarchist] and is against the North Korean dictatorship. On top of this, Rain had only very recently joined CivClassics and was still in the [[+,+ (CivClassic 2.0)|+,+]] territory, which was nowhere near JuniorTide's home. Despite having no evidence to support his claim that Rain put signs around his home, he publicly threatened to "glass" him<ref>[https://i.imgur.com/niGa5xO.png JuniorTide, citizen of Acadia and Icenia, threatening to "glass" people]</ref> which came off as extremely aggressive to TNSC.
===Pentigrass-Icenia incident===
At some point a new user joined CivClassics named [[Pentigrass]], he was invited by Rain and was new to the Civ genre. HeIt's claimed he was told multiple times to treat people kindly and to not raid or steal anything along his journey to TNSC land. Despite these alleged warnings he started to break into things until he was caught and pearled in [[Icenia]].
 
Frustrated with himself and being pearled, he tried to lie and claimclaimed that Rain ordered him to raid and steal to support TNSC, believing that if he blamed Rain it would give him a "lighter sentence". He would later admit directly to Rain about how he lied to throw Rain under the bus.<ref>[https://i.imgur.com/dBoiE77.png Pentigrass admitting that he lied about Rain telling him to raid other people's property]</ref> Despite Pentigrass admitting his own wrong doing, many who opposed Rain stuck with this new false narrative that Rain was out to inciteinciting violence and raiding among the community. With this narrativebelief, members in Acadia and other nations triedbelieved to run with the rumors and makethat Rain out to bewas an enemy that needsneeded to be dealt with.
===hawkeye0066-Acadia incident===
This idea of Rain being a nefarious untrustworthy malicious raider was further propagandized when another member of TNSC who was new to Civ, [[hawkeye0066]], against TNSC warnings decided to start raiding and stealing things in Acadia just like Pentigrass. He was caught, and was told by TNSC to return what he stole and turn himself in, which he did. This situation was almost immediately resolved with hawkeye being quickly released after his apology and return of items. In fact people in Acadia offered him a house and citizenship.
===Rain's Mining Trip===
On July 27th, 2021 Rain was mining for ore underground at bedrock level when he stumbled across mines that other players had already dug out. However, thesethe users seemed to only be interested in diamonds because they had left all other ores - iron, redstone, lapis - ores which TNSC required. While mining along these pathways he came across an underground bunker, walking around inspecting it to find a sign of ownership until [[Egi]] logged on. Egi seemed concerned at first, but seemed more peaceful as he advisedreminded Rain that he was in Acadia territory, demanding that he leavesleave and minesmine elsewhere, orders which Rain followed.

By tomorrow on July 28th, 2021 when Rain logged in he found that TNSC's only bunker was completely broken into and robbed. The snitch logs implied Acadia was responsible, the members of the raiding party consisted of [[JuniorTide]] (Citizen of Acadia & Icenia), [[Egi]] (Acadian Minister of "Defense"), and [[Polygondwana]] (Poly is probably an alt). The three man raiding party completely destroyed the bunker and stole everyone'sthe stockpiled gear. Sometime after the assault TNSC players logged on and found the bunker in ruins, realizing that Acadia was responsible Rain and TNSC issued an angry international dispute to the CivClassics subreddit.<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/otfgf1/acadia_raids_the_nostate_commune_we_demand_all/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 TNSC issues international dispute against Acadia for destroying their bunker unprovoked]</ref>
 
The raiding party received little to no consequences as a result of raiding the newfriend bunker, never being held accountable for their toxic actions. On the same day that the raid was revealed to the international community, a vote was held in Acadia against Egi for "Impeachment of Egi as Minister of Defense due to unauthorized use of force against TNSC". The vote failed with only 1 in favor, 6 against, and 2 abstaining. Icenia seemed to commit absolutely no punishment against JuniorTide, not even removing him from Icenia, or denouncing him, demoting him, etc. Polygondwana is a name nobody is familiar with, so it is assumed that they are an alt.]

*Farm built over to prevent crops from growing
*Surface terrain griefed and made ugly
*NewfriendsTNSC demoralized,members upset
===Acadia's Justifications===
In the aftermath Acadia started to receive international pushback due to invading TNSC unprovoked, being seen as raiding harmless newfriends for no reason provided. Acadia would later come out with an official post attempting to justify their invasion,<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/ott14t/rainofpain125_drama/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 Acadia making their own statement regarding nuking TNSC's bunker]</ref><ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/civclassics/comments/ouihn0/comment/h733ybn/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3 The nuking of TNSC's bunker told from the perspective of an Acadian citizen]</ref> however TNSC was quick to disprove almost all of their claims.
===="Rain was breaking into our bunkers"====
Rain was accused of running around near the Acadian bunkers to try and bust open a vault and free someone's pearl. This claim that Rain was breaking into any bunkers or vaults is never substantiated or backed up in any capacity beyond logs of him walking past the bunker.<ref>[https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/768261044992737290/992689480739864627/unknown.png]</ref> To further prove this claim wrong Rain uploaded a video of his entire mining trip start-to-finish that brought him near the Acadian bunkers, proving to the community that he was never at any point trying to break in. The video also shows his conversation with Egi that night.<ref>[https://youtu.be/_DcDzK3x5sg Rain providing proof that he was not trying to break into Acadia's bunker(s)]</ref>
===="Rain's goons were raiding everyone"====
It is still unclear as to why Acadia used this to justify their invasion, as both incidents of TNSC members stealing from others waswere handled properly and seen as resolved on all sides.

After announcing to the international community what Acadia had done, many TNSC members did not know what to do - whether they should quit the server or move far away from Acadia and so on.

= Rumors & Consequences=
==="Zombie was funnellingfunneling commies into Acadia" ===
Due to Rain and Zombie's friendship, and Zombie being a member of Acadia, itwhich made her an easythe target toof layaccusations of blameforeign againstcollusion. Shortly after Acadia's raid on TNSC a user [[FE_Flags]] who ran the '''Workers of Acadia Party''' (WAP) accused Zombie, claiming that she created a big shadow scheme where Rain would recruit new commies into WAP in order to sway elections, and in return Rain would get diamonds. or somethingRain likeclaims that. Therethere was no evidence to support that such a deal ever occuredoccurred, and Rain was never aware of any kind of deal. As far as Rain is concerned ifclaims such a deal was evernever proposed, then it was never agreed upon or committed to.
 
Acadian Senator Tsar Ivan, run by [[FE_Flags]], spoke with [[Zombie_Striker]] directly, in which an admission of funneling Acadian funds into the hands of [[RainOfPain125]] in exchange for recruits into Acadia which never came.<ref>[https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/768261044992737290/992692297361797170/Screenshot_20210729-200513_Discord.jpg?width=320&height=676]</ref><ref>[https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/768261044992737290/992692297080774736/Screenshot_20210729-200520_Discord.jpg?width=320&height=676]</ref><ref>[https://media.discordapp.net/attachments/768261044992737290/992692296795557918/Screenshot_20210729-200532_Discord.jpg?width=320&height=676]</ref> However the counter-argument is that the conversation was intended to expose Flags as a traitor who was willing to betray Acadia, considering that this "deal" was never acted upon and was merely discussed. This would make Zombie look like a "good commie" and could overall improve the outlook of leftism in Acadia. Bear in mind Flags was already considering leaving Acadia.
==="Zombie sabotaged Acadia"===
A player in Acadia{{Who}} accused Zombie of breaking a factory after the raid on TNSC's bunker, claiming it must have been an act of sabotage but theyno didhard notevidence providewas any hard evidenceprovided. TNSC joked that shethe user should obby bomb Acadia, but of course she and the other members never intended on doing it.
 
A member of Acadia [[Bloof_]] would later go on to threaten Rain on CivMC, believing he had told Zombie to sabotage Acadia's diamond factory among other things.
Line 118:
*Zombie_Striker quietly left CivClassics to distance herself from the drama and the rumors made against her after the two raids.
*RainOfPain125 ran far away and logged off, only logging on once or twice before the server was closed.
*TNSC was renamed to Consortium to try and rebrand itself.
*Acadia, Icenia & Yoathyl never held any of the raiders Egi, JuniorTide, Polygondwana, Okx, TTastic, or MrJeremyFarmer accountable for their actions

Acadia was shocked by the sudden, short reappearance of Rain, whose temporary ban had apparently been finished after one month. As Acadians never knew the length of the ban, they were surprised to see Rain back again so quickly. This stirred up problems with Acadia once more, as Acadia now believed that they were hiding Rain somewhere. Egi and Tuomasz came over to Consortium for a "diplomatic tour" and to discuss the situation and the relation between Acadia and Consortium going forward. Choosing to believe Hawkeye, Acadia asked Consortium for the location of the logbox, so that they would be able to pearl him if Rainie ever logged in on his main account again.
 
They told Acadia and other nations that they did not know where he logged, and yet those nations refused to believe it. In a final attempt to save themselves, the members bluffed, saying they know the coordinates where he had logged off and would only tell them if they were compensated and things remain peaceful.
 
Negotiations proved fruitless for Acadia as they were not willing to pay, so they decided to go looking for the logbox in Consortium themselves. [[Egi]], [[Ferro]], and [[JuniorTide]] conducted a search for the logbox on September 23rd. During their "diplomatic tour" the Acadians briefly pearled all Consortium citizens so that they could "continue their search". The search was unsuccessful, and another round of negotiations followed where eventually Hawkeye led Acadia to Rainie's supposed logbox. The logbox was guarded almost 24 hours a day for several days by Ferro, [[Tuomas]]z, and PMC allies [[Asuramaru|Asu]] and [[Ch1pR]], but Rain never logged in on his main account again, nor would most Consortium members who by this time had grown fully inactive due to being bulliedchased off by Acadia so much.
 
The attention Rain's reappearance amassed on the server a discussion starting to appear around whether Rain's ban was sufficiently long enough given the seriousness of doxing. As per Rain's request{{Citation needed}}, the staff team published an official statement clarifying Rain did notdidn't intend to dox or hurt anyone which is why, unlike realmost doxers, his ban was temporary.
{{Main|RainOfPain125#"Doxxing" a member of Acadia}}
Unfortunately, especially as far as public information goes, a lot of what exactly happened with Rain after the first TNSC crisis is shrouded in mystery. It is unclear whether Rain's ban was kept on one month only or as Rainie would later claim, that it was extended to three months, which would mean that he was banned again not long after his reappearance.<ref>Rainie claiming to have been banned for three months: [https://imgur.com/a/tid6ZqU link] (imgur of civwiki comparison)</ref> If his ban was not extended, it is also unclear to what extent he had been active on an alt-account during September/October which he, contradicting his other statement, claimed he was.<ref>Rainie claiming to have been playing during the 'three-month period': [https://imgur.com/a/tkMwumP link] (imgur of discord message)</ref> Neither was it ever publicly established whether Consortium had actually broken ties with Rainie as Hawkeye claimed, or whether the logbox was real or a fabrication.
