Mamata

It is an anual event where any Discord server staff member can participate an disorganized tumult, with floods, masspinging, pranks and mischiefs. Everyone can participate the mamata, and anyone can be unfairly punished, since it ends as the mamata day ends. It is important that this does not happen twice (or more) in a year; also, it can be any day of the year.

"May thoust, folk, have mamata, therefore, only once in the year. and I do what I do for I know, thou, o folk, need it as like the man needs the air to breath in."

"Stfu dont end the mamata yet, its fucking 11 Pm. Stop it when it does midnight!"

"/kick @everyone we do a little trolling for mamata :trollface:"
