How did you hear about The Sanctuary SMP community?: Was in a similar boat with KingAztec010 where our server stopped out of nowhere. Ninjaduff told us about this server and community and showed some impressive screenshots. Sorry if he is bringing too much traffic, I have bonded with Ninja and King and a few others and don't want that to go to waste.
What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? Building and decorating. I am not the best at building but am currently working on it. Sometimes I impress myself with what I create, other times it looks no better than a shack. I do like decorating the interior of houses though. Just because it looks terrible on the outside doesn't mean it has to look the same on the inside.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? I like the look of old thatched-roof style medieval houses. Makes the game feel more immersive with bows and swords and dragons. I use a lot of vines and leaves and vegetation; makes the house feel more alive.
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? Probably when my middle school friends invited me to their server. It was awful and all we did was cheat in TNT and blow everything up but it was fun. I still keep in touch and occasionally we would play Minecraft again. Brings back good memories.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? The group activities. Killing the ender dragon with the server or playing in minigames is always the best part of multiplayer. I also like trading and bartering with others which also makes the game feel more immersive like an RPG.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? I paint a lot with watercolor. It is calming and the end result is always satisfying. I also work in the ER and OR so my hours of activity are very odd. (Sometimes I play for days at a time, other times I must work end to end.)
I hope my answers are satisfactory. If not, please let me know. Thank you!

How did you hear about The Sanctuary SMP community?: I heard it through a friend that is currently on your server, NinjaDuffTV. The last server we were on abruptly shutdown and I was a bit gutted to lose the progress but Ninja told us about this server
What is your favourite thing to do in minecraft? Well, I do like exploring but recently the new villager mechanics have me intrigued. Automating stuff is also quite enjoyable to me, extensively involving redstone to make the grind a bit easier. Seeing a farm work to perfection does bring joy xD.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? Tbh, I'm not great at building. So consequently, I tend to live underground, with the stone brick flooring and carpet, with some redstone contraptions here and there. I try my best to make stuff look as aesthetically pleasing as possible. Above ground stuff is usually wooden/medieval looking.
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? I remember being terrified to death by the enderman noises when i just started playing around 1.6.4. While it wasn't fun at the time, its funny looking back now.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? Well, its the multiplayer part thats great. Working with others on projects is a great feeling. I helped out a fellow minecrafter set up a villager breeder, in the last server, and that was great fun. With the advent of shops in SMP, setting one up and semi-automating its resupply is something I look forward to doing here.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? I play and watch football(the european kind) and play a bit of ultimate frisbee. I'm currently rewatching the Big Bang Theory because I miss Sheldon's zingers(bit of a reference to the show).

How did you hear about The Sanctuary SMP community?: I found it on the MinecraftForums while looking for a Vanilla SMP server.
What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? Explore the world, make a way for myself, and build cool things, especially with other players. Also just having a laugh.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? Hmm, not sure what genre it falls under...but probably something vernacular and organic. I use a lot of wood and stone and try to make buildings integrate with their surroundings and looked lived in.
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? Wow, so many...I played on an SMP for about 5 years from just after Minecraft Beta was released. There were about 20 or 30 regular players and we were all friends, made huge towns, secret factions, raids and pranks. Far too many memories to choose just one but those people were a real presence in my life and I miss them.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? Not unlike life, what makes Minecraft great is what its simplicity forces upon the player. Too many mods dilute the mechanics of survival and self-determination, and also of multiplayer and player interactions. The best experiences are ones that happen on their own.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? I like reading literature and philosophy, doing poetry and math/logic. I'm always thinking about things and trying to learn. I also like music, cooking, and running when I'm not too lazy.

What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? Build, Farm, and Trade. I do a fair amount of exploring, but ill always spend wayy too much time making a shop and the farms to support it. I find it isn't fun if you aren't interacting with the others on the server. What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? My builds are usually large old looking structures that have some farm or hidden purpose. They could be cathedrals, towers, tomb entrances, broken castles etc. (but don't worry, I don't make those ugly all cobble or stone builds. they usually have some class.) What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? Me and 4 others tried to build the biggest castle we could on one of my old servers. Those team builds were always a blast on 360 because there was hardly any room in the preset world size. But on this particular build one of my friends built the whole north east quadrant one block to the north and one to the west so the whole thing would've had to be rebuilt. But instead of rebuilding it we made this huge crack down the sides to make it look like the foundation shifted. By far one of my favorite builds. What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? I love the exploring world I've been working on for weeks to find other builds. and with a survival world you can see all the effort that went in to gathering materials etc. But, I really love the trading and collaboration on builds. It really adds something you cant get in other games or creative mode. Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? watching Anime and playing Overwatch there's not much to do outside of my college work.
Sorry for the short post earlier. I should've taken more time to do a proper response.

What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? Oof, I enjoy a few things. I do not mind caving from time to time. Creepers might still scare the living poop out of me. Ten years in and still jump! Usually enjoy setting up farms, and building.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? Used to rock some medieval styles, but slowly have enjoyed more detailed wooden builds, adding cool lights to the trees, paths, building into the landscape. I am no hobbit from the Shire..but I do what I must
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? Welp lets see, I started this game in Alpha, so much has changed around. I would have to say building with my buddies back in the day collecting resources, pooling all of our items, and building all of the big things. Usually terribly bad though, at the time!
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP?: Vanilla is what I started with back in the day, and no mods were even available. I tried a few modded places, but the /commands ruin the experience personally. I enjoy knowing something that was built was done by hand, with my hard earned loot!
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy?: Work life has kept me busy for the past year or so recently so nothing too much. I am a graphic designer by day, so usually some sort of Photoshop work. Just picked up the LEGO Millennium Falcon set that has over 7500 pieces, so I am putting that together, so that has been a blast!
Want to say thanks for the reading all of my nonsense! Hoping to find a nice, relaxing vanilla server to play after work and chitchat with fellow hoomans. Have not really played since back when underwater things have been added, so this might be a new game again for me.

Are you familiar with Discord? What is your Discord ID?: I've had my own personal discord server (50 users) for 3 years. My tag is Flightless#2680
How did you hear about The Sanctuary SMP community?: I was searching for a professional and mature SMP server to play on, and after looking through a couple options, this is my preferred option.
What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? : I really enjoy both the technical and aesthetic sides of Minecraft, and while I tend to prefer building, I've found that having a balance of both allows me to play for longer without getting stuck on a big project.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? : I don't really have a preferred style, as I usually make something different every time I play, but my favorite base I've ever built was a pirate cove base when the Aquatic update launched.
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft?: My favorite memory of Minecraft is definitely the first month or two I purchased the game. The feeling of exploring everything and discovering everything for the first time was priceless, and even though my first world was a tree-less island (and I didnt know how to swim), I instantly knew this was the game for me.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP?: I absolutely love building complex mob / resource farms and appreciate the knowledge of game mechanics that designing such farms requires. Most of my friends prefer modded because they aren't as knowledgeable with game mechanics, and to be completely honest, playing vanilla with them doesn't satisfy me that much.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? : I am currently a full-time college student studying business management, but I've found the first couple years of college fairly relaxed, leaving me with plenty of free time. I enjoy a bunch of various video games (Overwatch and Dark Souls 3 being 2 of my favorites), I absolutely love to cook whenever I get the chance, I enjoy playing and studying poker whenever I get the chance, and I am really excited for football to start here in a few days (Go Ravens!).

How did you hear about The Sanctuary SMP community?: Through one of your players, Ninjaduff
What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? My favorite thing to do in Minecraft is to automate. I've always liked exploring redstone and with all the "recent" updates I've realized there is a lot more you can do. I'm also a big miner, I like to explore caves trying to find the most interesting areas.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? My base building style is slightly hard to explain but I'll do my best. I prefer to work underground, it is a lot less time consuming as I only have to design one side, because obviously there is no outside to make appealing. But when I do these types of bases I usually make some sort of dummy house or entrance on top.
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? I guess my favorite Minecraft memories revolve around communities. My first ever Minecraft server I joined was a whitelist pure vanilla server. I remember coming on everyday, there was a spawn village where everyone lived and of course we did a lot of projects and had a lot of fun as a community.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? Well I was always a big modded player, I mean I played Tekkit Classic when it wasn't classic. I always loved the automation as i said above and you know the updates that have been brought to vanilla have allowed you to do that to more things. Also a more vanilla experience is what I like, I don't like pay to win servers, or ones where you can get ahead easily by doing activities or whatever. I just like the simplicity of regular ol' Minecraft.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? Well if I'm not working or doing school work, you'll usually find me out working on one of my trucks. I've got an 89' Ford F250 which is my current project vehicle, I like the rewarding aspect of accomplishing something which is real satisfying for me when working on a vehicle.

I am very familiar with Discord. ID is Cheshire#1989 How did you hear about The Sanctuary SMP community?:
I found the community on MineCtaft Forums. Whilst looking for a community to play on. What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft?
I love building and creating houses for myself. I have not explored the new mechanics in 1.14.4 very thouroughly so I think that I would enjoy doing that with other people as oppsed to just by myself. What is your favorite/preferred base/building style?
I like a more rustic style of building. What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft?
I used to play Pixelmon with a group of friends (who sadly no longer play together). Which was really fun. I prefer multiplayer in Minecraft, I prefer to have people to chat to, do things with and all around have friendly banter with. What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP?
Building and progressing through the game with people. Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy?
I am a gamer at heart. I enjoy zoning out and playing on my days off and nights after work. My partner and I go camping regulary and 4x4 driving also.I am very social and enjoy being with friends and chatting over a couple of beers.
I understand, thanks for your time (:

Sometimes I impress myself with what I create, other times it looks no better than a shack. I do like decorating the interior of houses though. Just because it looks terrible on the outside doesn't mean it has to look the same on the inside.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? I like the look of old thatched-roof style medieval houses. Makes the game feel more immersive with bows and swords and dragons. I use a lot of vines and leaves and vegetation; makes the house feel more alive.

It was awful and all we did was cheat in TNT and blow everything up but it was fun. I still keep in touch and occasionally we would play Minecraft again. Brings back good memories.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? The group activities. Killing the ender dragon with the server or playing in minigames is always the best part of multiplayer. I also like trading and bartering with others which also makes the game feel more immersive like an RPG.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? I paint a lot with watercolor. It is calming and the end result is always satisfying. I also work in the ER and OR so my hours of activity are very odd. (Sometimes I play for days at a time, other times I must work end to end.)

What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? I remember being terrified to death by the enderman noises when i just started playing around 1.6.4. While it wasn't fun at the time, its funny looking back now.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? Well, its the multiplayer part thats great. Working with others on projects is a great feeling. I helped out a fellow minecrafter set up a villager breeder, in the last server, and that was great fun. With the advent of shops in SMP, setting one up and semi-automating its resupply is something I look forward to doing here.

What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? Wow, so many...I played on an SMP for about 5 years from just after Minecraft Beta was released. There were about 20 or 30 regular players and we were all friends, made huge towns, secret factions, raids and pranks. Far too many memories to choose just one but those people were a real presence in my life and I miss them.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? Not unlike life, what makes Minecraft great is what its simplicity forces upon the player. Too many mods dilute the mechanics of survival and self-determination, and also of multiplayer and player interactions. The best experiences are ones that happen on their own.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? I like reading literature and philosophy, doing poetry and math/logic. I'm always thinking about things and trying to learn. I also like music, cooking, and running when I'm not too lazy.

What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? Build, Farm, and Trade. I do a fair amount of exploring, but ill always spend wayy too much time making a shop and the farms to support it. I find it isn't fun if you aren't interacting with the others on the server.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? My builds are usually large old looking structures that have some farm or hidden purpose. They could be cathedrals, towers, tomb entrances, broken castles etc. (but don't worry, I don't make those ugly all cobble or stone builds. they usually have some class.)
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? Me and 4 others tried to build the biggest castle we could on one of my old servers. Those team builds were always a blast on 360 because there was hardly any room in the preset world size. But on this particular build one of my friends built the whole north east quadrant one block to the north and one to the west so the whole thing would've had to be rebuilt. But instead of rebuilding it we made this huge crack down the sides to make it look like the foundation shifted. By far one of my favorite builds.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? I love the exploring world I've been working on for weeks to find other builds. and with a survival world you can see all the effort that went in to gathering materials etc. But, I really love the trading and collaboration on builds. It really adds something you cant get in other games or creative mode.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? watching Anime and playing Overwatch there's not much to do outside of my college work.
Sorry for the short post earlier. I should've taken more time to do a proper response.

What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? Oof, I enjoy a few things. I do not mind caving from time to time. Creepers might still scare the living poop out of me. Ten years in and still jump! Usually enjoy setting up farms, and building.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? Used to rock some medieval styles, but slowly have enjoyed more detailed wooden builds, adding cool lights to the trees, paths, building into the landscape. I am no hobbit from the Shire..but I do what I must
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? Welp lets see, I started this game in Alpha, so much has changed around. I would have to say building with my buddies back in the day collecting resources, pooling all of our items, and building all of the big things. Usually terribly bad though, at the time!
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP?: Vanilla is what I started with back in the day, and no mods were even available. I tried a few modded places, but the /commands ruin the experience personally. I enjoy knowing something that was built was done by hand, with my hard earned loot!
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy?: Work life has kept me busy for the past year or so recently so nothing too much. I am a graphic designer by day, so usually some sort of Photoshop work. Just picked up the LEGO Millennium Falcon set that has over 7500 pieces, so I am putting that together, so that has been a blast!
Want to say thanks for the reading all of my nonsense! Hoping to find a nice, relaxing vanilla server to play after work and chitchat with fellow hoomans. Have not really played since back when underwater things have been added, so this might be a new game again for me.
Thanks for the read!

What is your favorite thing to do in Minecraft? My favorite thing to do in Minecraft is to automate. I've always liked exploring redstone and with all the "recent" updates I've realized there is a lot more you can do. I'm also a big miner, I like to explore caves trying to find the most interesting areas.
What is your favorite/preferred base/building style? My base building style is slightly hard to explain but I'll do my best. I prefer to work underground, it is a lot less time consuming as I only have to design one side, because obviously there is no outside to make appealing. But when I do these types of bases I usually make some sort of dummy house or entrance on top.
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft? I guess my favorite Minecraft memories revolve around communities. My first ever Minecraft server I joined was a whitelist pure vanilla server. I remember coming on everyday, there was a spawn village where everyone lived and of course we did a lot of projects and had a lot of fun as a community.
What aspect of vanilla gameplay draws you towards SMP? Well I was always a big modded player, I mean I played Tekkit Classic when it wasn't classic. I always loved the automation as i said above and you know the updates that have been brought to vanilla have allowed you to do that to more things. Also a more vanilla experience is what I like, I don't like pay to win servers, or ones where you can get ahead easily by doing activities or whatever. I just like the simplicity of regular ol' Minecraft.
Outside of Minecraft, what kinds of activities/hobbies do you enjoy? Well if I'm not working or doing school work, you'll usually find me out working on one of my trucks. I've got an 89' Ford F250 which is my current project vehicle, I like the rewarding aspect of accomplishing something which is real satisfying for me when working on a vehicle.

What is your favorite/preferred base/building style?
I like a more rustic style of building.
What is your favorite memory you have made in Minecraft?
I used to play Pixelmon with a group of friends (who sadly no longer play together). Which was really fun. I prefer multiplayer in Minecraft, I prefer to have people to chat to, do things with and all around have friendly banter with.

Building and progressing through the game with people.
