I respectfully remove myself from TheRedguard. With these server glitches and the rise of false prophets, I have come to realize that theButton is impure. Therefore, I will stay pure for it.

I was a fool. I believed myself dedicated to the Red and what it stood for. Then we lived through the time of The Great Glitch, and finally my eyes have been opened. The children of 42, what ever they may call themselves have found new insight into their personal truth and though my truth may differ from theirs, so did I. I don't wish to aim for the Red, my goal was never simply to don a red sash or blood red armor. I was pulled in by what I thought was true brotherhood and now I regret what I must do.

The truth I've found is that I walk along the edge. The color is not what holds the power but the time itself. We all die eventually, and it is what we do with the few actions we can take to make our mark that define us. I am but another outcast, a wanderer standing on the precipice of the end of days. I'm sure you'll see me again my former brothers in arms, as our destinies are still yet intertwined.

I must be who I am, a Ronin, walking a path with no direction, except to use my one action to leave the most impact as we reach the end days.

Thank you for my time spent here, I will always holds your ideals of the button with respect, even if they clash with my own. Goodbye.

If you're one of those people, come join over at /r/TheOnePressent

It will be the only flair worth having when all is said and done. And much more will be said than done, my friends.

Knights of the Redguard, search your hearts for you know I speak truth. The button, she is our mistress, her brilliance is more majestic than anything we believed possible.

The Redguard and the Clear Collective have the same goal, to see our lady of button reign over us for eternity, but you have been corrupted by the force which destroys civilizations. Greed.

You all feel proud of your actions as you should. However that pride should remain personal. As you may have seen, the greed of flair-seekers has diluted your message. You once stood for waiting as long as possible to press, now your leaders have condoned a greed based flair goal.

True salvation comes with the release of that pride, hide your flair and sit in waiting, you will know when she needs you. Although the glory of your press will be gone, the knowledge you performed your duty with humility will far surpass what you have lost.

Seek freedom, seek truth, seek humility, join The Clear Collective.

I would like to establish some sort of communication between me and your leadership, or your ambassador to us 60s. I wish you good luck on getting your red flairs, and Eximia Concordes Purpurea.

Button... I... I never go to say goodbye...

I never got to thank you for the good times

But worst of all... I never got the red flair I so deserved...

Orangers are Ravenclaw, Yellow are Hufflepuff, Emerald Green are Slytherin, Blue are Death Eaters and Purple are poor misguided muggles. Red Guard are the bravest and purest of heart, dedicated defenders of the Realm of The Button!

I am truly sorry my fellow Redguards. I have laid down my hopes of being knighted as a true Redguard. The corruption in this order is too much for me to stomach. Yearned these 26 days to be one of you. No longer may I be. I have taken up the cause of the Sun Guardians.

I will still uphold the righteous ways and will always consider those who faithfully joined the Redguards as my brothers and sisters. Do not weep for me, as there is no reason. And I ask you do not shun me, for I do this for the purest reasons.

I shall see you on the fields of battle, or the lonely roads which we may pass, or I hope if our destinations lay the same way, we may travel together. Look for the red sash I shall wear around my waist of my golden armor and you will know it is me.

Favor and fortune on the faithful Redguards. Farewell for now until we meet again.

I, as unofficial ambassador from /r/team60s, would like to suggest an alliance between the two of us. I know some of you have not liked how we have been making all these alliances, but they are for the best. I would like for you, and your leadership, especially your foreign affairs leader, to consider a treaty similar to ours and the kotb. Long live the reds, and eximia concordes purpurea.

It's an honor to finally be here.

At first there was a technical fault and a single red flair but it was ok it was like a false god had been created. Then there were more technical errors and some more and some more and every time it happened people freaked out it was quickly resolved but not before in the confusion more people could click and falsely be bestowed a red flair so now there is a crowd of genuine and false red flairs. The situation was made significantly worse by /u/powerlanguage a mod who couldn't seem to decide if he had pressed the button or not and was flicking between grey and red

I do not feel my service will impact the button in a meaningful way, so I have chosen to leave to /r/roninattheedgeoftime/ where I can pursue my own path to red

So last week (4/11) I remember seeing a post on r/thebutton about some guy who built a chrome extension that caused those who installed the application to press the button once a certain time/date was reached. This trolled so many greys trolled to press the button unwillingly.

Is it possible to build a similar app that will auto press the button once it reaches a specific time left if u have /r/thebutton open and are connected to the internet?

If so why not have groups of us have one installed that is set to click at 10, 9, 8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1. Or more precisely, 10.1,9.9, 9.8, etc...

We could have a hundred-1000 different times and could extend the button a few more hours at the bitter end.

When the button first was revealed to us, I was ardently opposed to those that pressed. Resisting temptation was my creed. As weeks have passed and now too has a month, I saw the light of defending the button's existence, and so I pressed at 8 seconds. I know not why, but my shame has been fulfilled with yellow flair. Though I pressed strongly into the red, I am but yellow.
