The Story of My Journey Under KaiserABRichter

I began following KaiserABRichter around January or February 2017. This was the time when I became really dedicated and followed him to every group however this was not when it actually started. I remember watching https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pJUsBBpTna0 this video while I was in German Forces 1940s. And I remember being extremely happy I could finally be in a group where everyone was on the game every day, so I suppose you could say around September-October 2016 was when I first started following Richter technically, but that is besides the point. This was a period of life, activity and purity in the axis community. There were no longer any ‘real national socialists’ on the platform as many had learned from the mistakes and bans of the previous German groups. I joined the Richter Empire as I had a love of fantasy and dystopian settings. The alternate history Richter Empire was a source of this love, and I was active every day. I simply could not get enough of the group and watched the videos of the marches, trainings and speeches on the youtube channel known as ‘SurvivorLaddie’ I served in the group on and off for a while, as I joined other axis groups, but the Richter Empire always remained a significant focus of my time on the site. Eventually the ban of the Richter Empire led to my distrust of the genre, as putting significant time and effort into a group that will eventually get content deleted didn’t seem like a good use of time. The pungence of the content deletions of previous groups lingered in my mind as I continued to wade across groups from the genre.

I officially met KaiserABRichter in Imperial Arcadia, led by Dietrich Oakwood. I learned Dietrich formerly served under Kaiser in previous groups. Dietrich became corrupted with his own power during this time, as he neglected to recognise the power and experience that he gained through serving under Kaiser. Kaiser worked his way up through the ranks of the party, bringing loyalists (such as myself) with him. Eventually the ignorance and arrogance of Dietrich showed, as Kaiser was falsely charged with treason in a kangaroo court. Even to this day I forget what he was charged with, showing the outrageous circumstances of the trial. The Party gathered at Kaiser’s execution but before the Lifeguard was able to open fire on Kaiser, the party opened fire, killing most of the lifeguard. It was a humiliating end to the activity of Imperial Arcadia, as it slowly died after that.

I remained in touch with Kaiser over discord as during this time, he quit roblox, and didn’t serve in too many groups. I came to serve in the Occupied Paris group under John Almeida. I quickly became a General in the group. I realised that the map was stolen from Kaiser, but I thought nothing of it, since it brought back so many memories of the Richter Empire for me, which I thoroughly enjoyed. Eventually I realised the inconsiderate nature of this map copying when Kaiser himself stumbled across the group. After learning of his displeasure I met with the High Command to arrange some sort of compensation or credit. Eventually I and a Feldwebel who has since been disgraced got Kaiser map dev credit. Kaiser’s distaste lead me to take a different approach to the group. Instead of seeing it as a source for memories and fun I saw it as a blatant and foolish copy, never being able to come close to the power and influence of the Richter Empire. I would later leave the group as it started to die.

After I got a bit involved with politics, I joined the Imperial Prussian Army, as Kaiser was Supreme Commander. Upon joining I was made a Captain, but through loyalty and donations I made it to Feldmarschall.  I served as Kaiser’s Chief of Staff, which was around November or October 2018. I was active every day in Prussia, and it was a great experience serving as High Command in a WWI group. Kaiser informed me he was considering making a Scotland group based around the High Middle Ages period. I assured him that I would join, and I became the 11th member of a group that would climb to 2,500. This was the beginning of Scotland, and my loyalty intensified even further as I was ready to commit to the group.

I joined Scotland and was promoted to Castellan, serving as the defensive raid commander in this capacity. Unfortunately before the ranks were reformed I never got to lead the group in defense against another group. After the rank reforms I became a Lord.  The ranks went through multiple reforms during this time. The first marshal failed miserably and I was designated to take his place. I assumed the Marshalship with confidence and pride. I found it challenging to maintain the activity of the officers during this time, however I hosted the majority of the trainings myself. Before I was able to conduct officer reforms and get the officer staff back on track, real life events came up, limiting my capacity to serve in the role. I had to take a break from the group, however my loyalty to Kaiser would never be damaged, only strengthened.

After I returned I was somewhat ridiculed for my break from the group. Everyone called me an inactive failure, however I thought it useless to let these fools question my loyalty to Kaiser. I did not need to defend myself with words, only actions. I started joining the game every day again. Kaiser saw this and I regained the rank of Duke. I assisted in trainings daily and even went so far as to take days off school to be active in Scotland. However not all good things last, as after incompetence and the lack of ability to take initiative, it died.

The Richter loyalists moved to KGB. I had little interest in the group, however my loyalty and willingness to serve Kaiser made me take interest. I served in the regiment for a while, achieving the rank of Lt. but once again commitments in real life made it hard to serve to the fullest extent. I did however take part in some of the activities of KGB and they were mostly enjoyable.

While I was up at a farm one holiday, I purchased the book 1984 to keep myself occupied when I wasn’t doing activities on the farm. Conveniently when I was checking discord a day later, our Oceania in the 1984 genre was announced. I found this quite amusing and convenient. I was looking forward to the group. Once Oceania was set up I became Deputy Party Chairman (3ic) I loved the 1984 genre after reading the book. I was very pleased with the officer staff at the daily activity even before the launch, after we launched, at peak we were achieving 40-50+ activity.  Due to the idiocy and incompetence of one, traitorous minister, the progress was halted. No one knew this would come out of a link that the Minister ‘thought’ was an IP grabber. I don’t believe that anyone would AA the group, destroy the map and turn many others against us, because someone ‘thought’ it was an IP grabber. This was blatantly an excuse for Alexander and his cronies to turn on Richter.

The group easily got back on track after the incident. We once again had 30-40+ activity a day. When suddenly, activity started slowly dying, for unknown reasons. I personally believe it was once again a failure of the staff, who MUST take more initiative. If you claim to be loyal then you put in effort into the group. It’s fine if you have real life issues like I had because I understand. But not everyone has these, the group should have been able to maintain some activity. This was very unfortunate, as it was a genre that I truly held dear to my heart, and to see the funds Kaiser poured into the group get washed away by the plagues of inactivity and incompetence was truly saddening.

Nearly 2 years on from first serving in Kaiser’s group, I see that what he expects is simple, he expects loyalty and devotion. In order to succeed in his groups and his community, you must be loyal. Kaiser must come to trust you. My loyalty for him has never faltered and I still look at him with the same admiration I did when seeing him in game in the Richter Empire. A year and a half later, I am trusted by him, and are able to serve him, which is the greatest honour I have ever received on this site. I look forward to the future, as we prepare for another group.

In the Richter Imperium I was excited for its launch, finally I would think to myself. A group centered around Kaiser and only Kaiser. I was startled to see him change his roblox name from KaiserABRichter to ImperatorABRichter, as he had the name for so long. I took this as further signs that this would be a group that Imperator would work long and hard on. Due to school I found it hard with the ranking system at first, as everyone had to earn their rank. Thus I decided to do what I was best at, documents, scripture, administration, writing and indoctrination. I made documents and laws for the Imperium, and I continue to do this today.

Around about a month ago my pc hard disk broke, which left me incapacitated, and unable to do work for the Imperium unless it’s just hopping on discord on my phone from time to time. The last month left me saddened that I could not take part in the progress of the Imperium. I became extremely frustrated and annoyed until Christmas Day 2018. I was gifted with a brand new laptop. I was ecstatic that I would be able to get back into the mix of the Imperium, and I am looking forward to joining the game again for the first time in a month tomorrow.

The Imperium continued into 2019 where I served as Prime Minister for 4 months. After this, we began Korea with Parsifal Lohenzollern. This was a group that we were going to make become a supergroup. The group that we would put tremendous effort into was Korea. During long periods of sickness, I filled my time with roblox and quickly established myself as the Secretary General exclaiming teachings of loyalty and service of ABRichter. Korea achieved the mighty goal of becoming a supergroup with 50+ activity becoming commonplace. Eventually, Korea was to be sold and it was there that the whole plan was revealed. Korea was in essence a loyalty test to see who would betray due to a communist aesthetic. The test was an extreme success and only a dozen betrayed for about 30 diehard Richters gained. It was here that we moved to a nationalist Italy, where ABRichter styled himself as the Il Duce and Italy was to be given great prestige. This was not to last, however as ABRichter’s longstanding account KaiserABRichter was terminated by roblox, and the nationalist Italy was terminated. The loss of his main youtube channel was also a great blow to morale.

Although this was saddening, nothing could have prepared me for the announcement that was to come next. ABRichter after 5+ years on the platform announced he was quitting roblox. I was dumbfounded. I knew that the situation we were in was a difficult one but the thought of him even considering leaving never crossed my mind. As I write this, I’m still struggling to comprehend this decision and it hasn’t even fully registered in my brain yet. However, I know that whatever decisions he makes. Even if it is another long hiatus like in 2017. I will FOREVER be loyal. Long live the Richter family. Long Live Alec B. Richter.

The Next Chapter

Despite the sadness and loss that we all felt and continue to feel after the departure of Alec, we hold his legacy and high regard and the thoughts of doing him and his legacy justice motivate us to push forward and strive for our very best. Immediately preceding Alec’s departure I was in a state of denial, a state of shock. I just couldn’t believe that he’d quit roblox. He did it earlier back in 2017, however this departure was much more saddening due to the time I spent getting to know him, being loyal to him etc. The Senior Council as well was in a similar state, and we spent a good deal of time debating what course of action to take next. We ended up accepting the offer of Wilfried Mecklenburg and took a place in The New German Empire.

During the time of the New German Empire, our presence somewhat revived activity. Additionally, my dedication to my post as Commander of the Military Court corps allowed the Richters to advance further in the group, establishing new laws and generally reforming it for the good of the group. This progress still continues to this day as I retain my position as Commander of the Militaergerichtkorps.

Since then, we have awaited the development of a new group ‘The Imperial State of Turan’ which will be a group solely dedicated to the legacy of the Richters and of Alec. It will be glorious in its aesthetic, as statues of Richter will line the streets. And in the grand central square of the map shall be a monument to Alec and his greatness and all that he has done for us.

But additionally, at the same time as these two events, Alec began to investigate a website named “Brickplanet.” It was a small site, however this was the key idea. Diehard loyalists like myself were keen to make accounts and join Richter on this platform. After Kaiser explored a few Roman and German groups, he had an idea. He decided to form a SHAEF. I wholeheartedly supported and agreed with this decision as Alec has stated many times in the past that he has an extreme distaste for being regarded as the bad guy. Brickplanet as a new, growing platform will allow us to establish ourselves as the good guys of the platform. It provides endless opportunities for growth, endless opportunities for success. Brickplanet is a new beginning, Brickplanet and roblox will both act as sites for the Richters to operate on, with great legacies and new beginnings alike.

We come to a new era. An era where Turan was sold in exchange for the old group of Scotland. However we did not return to the medieval aesthetic which we once had, we converted Scotland into a group set during ww2 and incorporating elements of the old Tantallon castle which had since crumbled after nearly 800 years since it was first occupied by William the Lionheart (ABRichter) and his Scottish men.

Scotland went on fine, with Muh_Beans serving as Marshal and implementing a new doctrine where everyone had to earn their rank the hard way. This went on until Muh_Beans had to stop serving as Marshal, Where Marshal MacLeod took over. MacLeod failed to invigorate activity and was thus replaced.

During this time, Scotland was expanding out and gaining new states to be held under the Richter name. This was officially the commonwealth of Richterist nations. Richterist personnel served in positions in multiple groups, all seeking to benefit each other and expand the name of Richterism.

Today, as I write this on January 6th, Two thousand and Twenty, all Richterist nation states merged into the German Revolutionary Socialist State. I personally am serving as party leader and I am eager to build the foundations that the rest of the group will run on in the future.

We come to today in September 2020, the first addition to this document in many months. The Richters are the Richterians and we remain alive and well.

We come to today in September 2022, the Richterians in the first 2 years built one of the greatest Legacies ever seen. I am retired and believe I served Aleczaender well to the best of my ability. The Richterians, even without me and Aleczaender, are still thriving as they carry the Legacy Aleczaender started.
