Back around 2008(?), she made two videos for her friends in Gaia, Admiral Awesome and 4nt. The videos weren't that well known and sat in obscurity for a year in youtube. Then, an unknown individual uploaded the two videos on i-am-bored.com. It gained massive popularity there. A person from i-am-bored then uploaded it to 7chan, a similar site to 4chan, but lesser known. Lurkers on 7chan saw the video, then made a "You rage you lose" thread there, daring the watchers to watch it for as long as they can. She suddenly got very popular there, splitting the sides with Boxxy lovers and Boxxy haters.

Months later, the Boxxy phenomena was still strong. It grew to monumental heights when she created her third and arguably her most controversial one, "Foar Everywun Frum Boxxy". Here, she addresses all that was happening. She herself was enjoying all the attention and was supposed to be here to stay.

Soon, every page was littered with Boxxy. Almost every thread on the front page of /b/ was about her. Boxxy haters got mad, so they made a deal with moot. Filter Boxxy, or we will DDOS 4chan. moot didn't budge, so they went ahead and crashed 4chan. It was down for several hours. This is what was called "4chan's civil war".

Although moot put a filter on Boxxy, he lifted it a week later. The DDOSing did not help anything at all. She was the hot topic, and Boxxy haters were furious about it. A group of people called the Center for Boxxy Control and Restriction (CBCR) decided to step in.

Through a lot of detective work, they found out much of her information and was able to hack into her Youtube channel. There, they changed the background to red, privatized her three videos and left one threatening her to stop making new videos or else they will release all information about her.
