The 'Don't Buy the Renegade Raider Skin If You Respect OG Fortnite Players' copypasta emerged as a satirical take on the extreme gatekeeping found within the Fortnite battle royale community. Renegade Raider is considered one of the rarest skins in the game, having only been available during the first season of Chapter 1. The copypasta, which often pleads with the developer Epic Games not to re-release the skin and begs the community to boycott it to preserve its 'rarity,' became a viral joke used to mock players who tie their self-worth to digital cosmetics. It perfectly highlights the tension between 'OG' status and the common player's desire for legacy skins, frequently appearing in social media threads whenever shop rumors surface.
