The Georgia Board of Trustees responded to the complaints of the Malcontents, who were dissatisfied with restrictions on land ownership and slavery, by largely dismissing their grievances. The Trustees were committed to their vision of a utopian society where land was limited to encourage small-scale farming and to avoid a plantation economy. However, as the Malcontents persisted, their influence grew, leading to some changes in policies, including the eventual relaxation of restrictions on land ownership and the introduction of slavery in Georgia. Ultimately, the Board's initial resistance gave way to accommodating some of the Malcontents' demands over time.
The malcontents were a group of early settlers in Georgia who arrived in the colony in the 1730s, primarily from England and other parts of Europe. They were discontented with the restrictions imposed by the Trustees of the Georgia colony, such as the ban on slavery and limits on land ownership. Seeking greater economic opportunities and freedoms, they voiced their grievances, leading to changes in colonial policies. Their presence highlighted the tensions between the original vision for Georgia and the desires of its settlers.

I think it was when the Malcontents came to Georgia and because they wanted slavery and the trustees didn't, it caused discontentment. Hope that helps. :D

James Oglethorpe, and he settled it in 1756.
The Malcontents were a group of early settlers in the Georgia colony, primarily in the 1730s and 1740s, who expressed dissatisfaction with the colony's governance and policies. They opposed restrictions on land ownership, the ban on slavery, and the prohibition of rum and other spirits, arguing that these limitations hindered economic growth and personal liberty. Their agitation ultimately influenced changes in colonial policy, including the eventual legalization of slavery in Georgia.
