    As someone who lives on a small, remote island in the middle of the pacific: Avid internet users are the LAST people who should want to live on an island. It isn't fun and games. It's actually hell. Some of the even more remote islands lack concrete and steel infrastructure and are forced to chain themselves to trees to not be swept away by typhoons. Importing has caused prices to be absolutely bonkers. We can't really produce any of our own goods. So yeah: you do NOT want to live on an island. It isn't all pina coladas and paradise. It's hot, hard work and very limited resources. Especially internet and electricity.

    It was her first time on Reddit Island, her first time travelling alone, it was night but she could see the tell tale light of human activity in the distance. Suddenly, she saw a shadow stalk through the sand towards her, moving with a preternatural speed considering the enormity of it. Before she knew it, she felt a clammy, almost greasy hand slap out and grab her wrist before it snatched her still clasped passport. It's face drew closer as it opened up that small yet vital book and the moon, without mercy shone light upon his face
    "Prima Noctis" the words slurped wetly out of the Mod's mouth, his yellowed teeth revealed in a rictus grin as his eyes scanned over the details on her document.
    When he reached her age, his smile grew wider.

    Another thing about the Pitcairn Islands is that there is only one small boat that visits the islands and it only comes around four times a year bringing no more than 12 visitors at a time.
    The Pitcairn Islanders love visitors as they love showing them their quiet little island and sharing it with them while of course tourists bring in money.
    But Pitcairn Island belongs to the Islanders and they want to keep it that way and keep it nice and quiet so once the hair returns you can’t stay, you have to get on board and be on your way
    You can only stay longer if you get special permission from the island’s government and that’s usually only granted for family members or something like that
    So no, you can’t just flood Pitcairn island with a bunch of sweat Redditors and take over the place

      And if you plan on outnumbering the locals and voting them out, you might as well drop the latter part and just outright fucking murder them.
      You would just have to hope that you don't get any fallout from the British government. Or at least replace the initial Redditor population with a fresh new batch of Redditors when all the others eventually get arrested and deported for murdering the original inhabitants.
