I'm gonna leave now. I have a few reasons for this:
1. MASTERMINED IS LEAVING That's a huge bummer, but that's not why I want to leave.
1. Posting feels like a chore. Even this.
2. My favorite forum, Suggestions, has become trash, and the Suggestions I put effort it get virtually no recognition. There's so much junk and people care so little for the rules that threads are constantly locked. And to even get a chance for a remotely popular suggestion, you have to 1. make it impeccably detailed and in-depth, or 2. make it disgustingly terrible and exploit people's anger to get replies. I'm not doing either of those things.
3. I don't need the articles, I can just follow all the Mojang devs on Twitter.
Bye y'all. Don't manipulate negative groupthink attitudes to maximize your thread popularity on the Suggestions forum!
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
Console Battle is two games rolled into one: gambling (whether or not you get one of the OP weapons) and betting (which teammate won't turn on you, since teaming is pretty much a requirement to kill off another team)! Of course, it's not all chance; at its core, Battle is about triumphing and defeating other players... by kicking them out if they win to make yourself feel better.
Hello! I'm Wolftopia, and I love Minecraft and the principal of it. I'm very interested in programming, and I might make a mod at some point. The main thing I will be posting in is the Suggestions forum, since, though I love Minecraft, I think it could be improved and could become an even better game if given the proper attention.
I know I've been on this forum since August, but I thought I might as well post an introduction.
I've been on here for years but never really introduced myself. At this point, I honestly don't know whether to do so or not, considering what's going on.
First arrived on the Forums in order to watch people talk about Minecraft in around 2012. First made a post to find servers to play on, out of annoyance at being attacked by mods on big servers, and continued searching for awhile afterwards. Several months later, became increasingly interested in the Suggestions Forum under the Suggestions Guide of Theriasis. Actually read all the rules and guides before making a generally well-received first suggestion. Continued to both argue on anti-update/anti-Mojang threads in Recent Updates and Snapshots and becoming increasingly involved in the Suggestions Guide.
Most time was spent in much the same manner, critiquing suggestions, helping the Suggestions Guide, and arguing that no, none of the updates suck as much as people think they do. Although no arguments were truly resolved that way, the point of arguing against people who'll never agree with you is not to be right, but to sharpen one's wit and have fun. A server called Nationcraft was found to play on, and half a year was enjoyed on it before continual resets resulted in disinterest.
Was part of making the Suggestions Guide 2.0, after the first Guide was deemed 'too mean,' or 'not good enough,' or something along those lines.
Life continued in much the same way, the Guide being improved upon, interesting things happening in Minecraft, and much fun had for all. Until quite abruptly, the moderators decided there was no possible compromise for the apparent negativity, and without warning shut down the Guide and put up their own, neutered version. Without any kind of reason governing the Suggestions Forum, and the fundamental point of a suggestions forum that Mojang doesn't look at--to refine suggestions before putting them on Reddit--being heavily disabled by the lack of authority backing logic, there was little point in doing anything else there.
From there, all that was left was drifting from topic to topic, watching Minecraft slowly update for four months, until Twitch decided to integrate accounts, which went against certain principles and finally ended everything.
A mention to friends and acquaintances, in no particular order: Theriasis, Badprenup, TheMasterCaver, Cerroz, Yoshi9048, Mastermined, Gamelord, Angeltxilon, DrWeegee, McRiveter, Acknid, Jdc997, Swaglord676, Endergirl00, Alufkin, Shaddura, Teesee, ThingWithAThing, 0_Zippy, Broccoli_Monkey, DeviantCrafter, and Xystem4. And several others whose names I've forgotten over the years.
Thanks for the fun, guys. If anyone wants to find me, I'm ErraticArchitect on Reddit.
If not for this whole Twitch thing, I'd keep going. Even so, I hold no grudge for Twitch's actions. They're doing what makes sense for them, and I can see the benefits. I simply disagree. I understand they won't change their minds if the 'minority' of people disagree, or even if the majority do. I am still not going to be a part of something just because my leaving it will be ignored or forgotten by them. Going with the flow even when you disagree is what causes so many real-life problems. So goodbye, a large portion of my life.
I've never introduced myself here since joining 4 years ago, so I guess I'll say something.
The main reason I visit these forums was, is, and will always be the mapping and modding community (specifically, Advent of Ascension). At one point I visited Discussion and games frequently, but not anymore due to the forum's slowness. As is apparently the case with many other members, I moved to Reddit for those things.
It's somewhat disheartening to see all these longtime members leaving due to the Twitch merge, though I guess this is inevitable. I'll probably still stick around in the Modding section however, because I haven't found another modding community nearly as large as that one.
Regarding Minecraft itself, I'm generally fine with the changes (including combat changes), although I still largely stay on 1.7 since 1.8 broke lots of mods. My main issue is overall shift in the community, especially Youtube.
I was another dude on this forum, you might have met him, but then twitch happened and I couldn't remember my password so I had to be reincarnated as the new and improved Jimbo Mcjenkins, I also had a forum game I had to manage so I will be managing that forum game now

Not particularly a fan of all the changes; and there are a few changes I wish would be made, however, I'm grateful for this place's existence nonetheless.
I wouldn't be where I am in my life right now if not for some of the experiences this site opened the doorway to.
In light of that, I want to thank everyone here, the community and those making the site function. Thank you. You guys are awesome.
I am TheRealReeper. You can find me in the Discussion & Suggestions sections in the Minecraft: Java Edtion section, but mainly I go about my business in the Forum Games section. If you want to ask me a question, don't be afraid to shoot me a PM .Outside of the Minecraft Forum, I have an Xbox One, so if you want to come play with me, my Gamertag is on my profile page (for some reason though, my party feature is broken, so we would have to message each other). I do have school during the week though, so I'm really only available for the weekend. I have 2 siblings, live somewhere in Missouri, and am on my Mac PC pretty much 24/7.

Some
not sucky suggestion threads I made: Console Minigame: Ram Attack! - New Arrows!(quality)For sake of posterity...
I had fun here once, I think; it's been so long ago now.
It's been obvious that this game and it's community are in their twilight years.
But for me, this Twitch thing is the straw that broke the camels back.
I've enjoyed playing Minecraft for nearly eight years of my life to varying degrees. A lot of history there.
It's a shame to see things go like this, but I suppose once something grows so big, the only way it can hope to die is with a demeaning, long goodbye.
I'll sit back and watch; but I know what's coming.
Not that I've really posted in the last long while anyway. Sucks to finally call it quits though.
Bye, kids.
You may want to read my post while you still can, some of them have been randomly disappearing lately *cough*

Gee. I joined because of the Twitch merge (since I have a Twitch account myself). Talk about bad timing.
I know this is a little late, but...

I uh... Really am not sure what to say here.

Figured it was time for a change.
Hello everyone,
My name is Andy, I am new here. I like playing games. However, I only play them sometime.
I love to google things and learn something new all the time.
Oh, I am working on an online project .

I don't believe I ever formally introduced myself here, and if so that is somewhat sad. Even so, I can at least formally say goodbye.
