“BB Server” enters the conversation
Someone asked why the BB server was down again. The reply was a sticker: a small potato-like computer, bristling with cables and a memory board. Under the photo, two large yellow words: BB Server.
That exchange is preserved in the chat on 27 October 2023. The same image had already appeared there on 22 September. It gave a downtime question a very compact answer.
Two packs. One group slot.
BB stickers had been around for years by then. On 6 April 2020, the channel shared one pack and asked people to rate it. A second pack arrived that evening, with another poll.
The admin said only the pack with the best votes would be available in the group. The surviving posts preserve the invitation to vote; they do not establish the final winner.
Thanks, welcome, uptime
On 22 September 2023, the channel announced another sticker pack. The admin answered the announcement with Thanks! A participant replied with Welcome!
Five days later, someone asked “Server down??” The admin’s reply was another sticker: Uptime!
The admin used it too
The BB Server image stayed in circulation. On 24 August 2025, the admin posted it during a discussion of slowdowns, then wrote that the status looked OK and that monitoring and optimisation were needed.
