Ex-Com Event

An Ex-Com Event is a rare occurrence in which a member of Cancer Caw leaves the group. Ex-com Events usually include 3 or more belligerents, and results in a member or members either leaving the Caw by their own will or by force. Only under certain circumstances may members who have been Ex-Commed return to the Caw, otherwise it is typically considered to be a permanent condemnation.

The Metal Gear: Survive Event
The Metal Gear: Survive Ex-Com Event took place on March 05, 2018. Shane had been recently been playing the game "Metal Gear: Survive" which, at the time, had been receiving mass criticism for several reasons. Shane had been discussing the merits he had found in the game when Jesus interjected with a post condemning the game, as well as Shane for playing it. Max had attempted to make him understand the concept of contextualizing ones shit talk, but Jesus only took offense, joking about Max's recent Break up.

Prior to the provocation, Jesus' only appearances in the call in recent history had only been to lampoon others, or talk about "Stah Wahs". This, in conjunction with a general lack of change in personal character painted Jesus in a bad light in this context. After the initial jab at Shane, he continued to bring it up again, unprompted, a few days later. Shane has had a long history of dealing with Jesus' specific brand of bullshit, and had eventually decided on Banning him from the Cancer Caw. There was no opposition to the decision. The Ex-Com is still in effect to this day, and very likely to remain as such.

Tek Talk Schism
The Tek Talk Ex-Com Schism took place on November 10, 2018. During this time, there was considered by some members to be an overwhelming efflorescence of "Tekken 7" related posts following it's release a few months prior. Endless posts about move sets for the easiest fighting game in existence made scrolling through this era of the chat unbearable. Good posts would be hidden and pushed up by a dredge of questions asked by Dru about frame advantage in a game that lets you queue up and entire combo an hour in advance.

Clab and Max began to have an argument over what the Cancer Caw was even intended for in the first place, which later devolved into Max creating attacks on Clab's real life personal character.

The message ''"You ever wonder why nobody never wanted to be romantically involved with you? It's because your personality is poison." ''was later turned into the Cancer Caws Tagline during the argument.

This event caused the creation of private text chats that may only be seen to those with special designations, which still exist today, and are the only vestiges of the event that exist today.

Nearing the end of the discourse, Shane created "The Shouthouse" as a place for other members to retreat to so their posts can be safe and not pushed up by a bunch of bullshit. With the popularity of not having a 100GB game installed on your Hard drive rose, there was a noticeable decline in Tekken related posts. Reintegration of "Shouthouse" members into Cancer Caw occurred after some weeks.

Pokémon Sword/Shield Cataclysm
On November 16th, 2019, shortly after the release of Pokémon Sword and Shield for the Nintendo Switch, ex-commed Caw member Grady kicked off the day by bringing up old shit about how Pokémon getting shittier is not the same as Blizzard's increasingly political business practices, whereupon he asked to be kicked from the Caw because the Caw "bored him." In the months leading up to the cataclysm, Grady had been posting memes related to the apparent decline in quality in Pokémon games, specifically the then-upcoming Sword and Shield release, on a near-daily basis. Despite his protestations, Shane and Clab were going to buy the game anyway, because it's actually just a baby game and taking it that seriously is dumb.

On the day of the cataclysm, Clab made fun of Grady for asking to be kicked from the Caw because two of his alleged bros bought a game he said not to buy. Max woke up during the middle of this and incorrectly assumed that Clab and Grady were on similar levels of pettiness, but later admitted that he was wrong and that Grady was king of cringe this day. In the days after the cataclysm, Grady continued to post Sneed memes and other shit but no one replied to him because no one was sure how to handle talking to him after witnessing such a nuclear blowup over the most retarded shit. No one is exactly sure when it happened, but Grady silently left the Caw sometime before December 11th, 2019 when Clab noticed that he was no longer in the user list. No one has heard from Grady to this day, and it is assumed that the drug dealers he stole drugs from came back and did him in.
