Just recently I got my computer back. I was IMMENSELY happy that I could get back on because I wanted to see all of my friends. I could finally talk to kris and leigh and game and death and so many more. But then I came back and everything was different. i knew almost no one and all my homes were gone and I didnt know what I had done wrong. I love making friends, but this time I just couldnt. Ive made too many memories on this server and now they are just... well, gone. I have never felt so surrounded by people yet so empty.
I am terribly sad to say this, but I think I'm going to turn in my rank as mod, give everyone I know a hug and a diamond, and be off. I'm going to find a different server. I don't know where I am going, I don't know if I will stay for long, I just want a fresh start. I love all of you, and I truly mean that. I love you like brothers and sisters, but when some of my most dear friends slip from my fingers I can't really keep reliving their memories. I have been a mod on this server for so long that its hard for me to remember WHEN i started. But i remember exactly HOW.
I was server hopping with my friend shade_runner27. This was over 3 years ago i think. We found mctopia and for some reason just decided to try it. We landed in world 2 and just ran out the door. Chat was just busy as usual. Then it becomes night, we get hungry and he has to go for a while. I trap myself in a little box made out of dirt in the middle of the desert. Then I see some random name zipping through the area and it stops right at my box. He breaks a block at eye level and who do I see? Why Metazard the Great of course! My first interaction with a mctopian was at that moment. He was so nice, more nice than I had seen in a while. (You see, shade liked to grief and he even got me a hacking program. I eventually removed it and then we went on this server hopping journey). Meta, I can confidently say that when I met you was when I started thinking about staying.
I eventually settled with shade at the spot that is now kaleville. shade built in the side of a mountain a few hundred blocks away. I was then treated to my second mctopian: mikeL2845. He was new, just like shade and I, just a little less new. we built houses very close to each other and even built a secret passageway through my mine to each other's houses. Then came in chineseboy, I built him a house. then others arrived. by the end I had built a full TOWN and was more than proud to have built homes for over 20 people. I moved about a hundred blocks away and built my mansion (eventually I gave it to chineseboy but when i had it it was glorious.) I hopped from house to house after that and eventually settled in the middle of the ocean (my most favorite house. I cant get to it now).
Now i want to talk about something other than the first people I met and where I lived.
These are the people that changed my life, both in mctopia AND in the real world.
Hailstorm (aka jwalsh): oh my god I cant even begin to describe the complexities. The basics I guess are that she was trusted and I was member. We met somehow (i really dont remember how) and we started talking. So we then become good friends. chall knows some of the details and complications. Through her I met AwesomeBoo and she was pretty cool (kinda scared me for some reason tho.) Hail and I built a hotel together and learned about each other (like the fact that she is scared of clowns and vomiting :3) Her and I are now still good friends and even though we are on different sides of the country, we still talk.
tobiii1004: She is what made me fall in love with mctopia, because as I got to know her and as I got more known on the server, I found out how much love there was to go around from person to person on the internet. I wont forget the day that our relationship started.
Leigh_macpherson & Deathworlds: oh boy, i loved these guys like brothers. they were beyond funny and I loved hanging out with them. We developed deep and manly relationships. Our most memorable moment was when leigh and I built an awesome snow castle for death. (what ever happened to leigh by the way?)
kris_nickel: my last and strongest relationship. kris, if you are reading this I do love you, and Im sorry I am leaving. You were my inspiration to build my biggest things and to strengthen my friendships. I know that minecraft marriage is kind of silly but i still think it meant something. You were not only my girlfriend but more importantly my best friend.
Everyone else I met: without all of you (Lord_Nick, supercooper, puffleplay, game_jacker, challenger, emmy, danny, awesomeboo, etc.) I would have no idea how i would have turned out. Even though some of you may not be reading this, for those who are, THANK YOU. You made me into the person I am today. You all helped to build my personality and character; you showed me what to do (chall) and what not to do (cooper).
So as I said I'm leaving the server, I wish i could have seen more of you guys but I wasnt able to. I am gonna pop back on the forums every once in a while, and who knows, I may jump back on here and there. If you want to contact me, my skype username is: elijah_winston1 and my profile picture is the one with the fire bird on the black background (nickname Bana Bags). You can also private msg me on the forums or send me mail on the server.
Inspiron, I know you and many others see your server as growing, but I truly think it may just be dying out. I wish we could bring back the old server, get all the old players back on and have great times together, I liked it when everyone was so close and we were a community. Now, the server is simply like a port town in the 1800s. Some people stay, but many are just passing through. Either they are taken by the beauty they see in other places, or leaving because of the condition of their current town. I think the problem is that the server doesnt feel like a group anymore. It is too watered down and no one is really as passionate as they used to be on the server. there are too many superdonors and strangers and not enough familiar faces and outstanding people anymore. I also just think i have seen all there is to see. None of this is anyone's fault. Inspiron only meant the best for the server but wasnt able to build his dream server AND keep everyone. Continue with your server work, please keep the server moving foward the way you best see fit, just count me out from now on.
Again, I love every single person here and I just wish we could all come back again and be a family. I hate to be a pessimist here but i dont see that happening again.
I cant thank you enough for all the memories you guys helped me make here and no one can replace you all, but I am finally moving on and I just hope you all can have lots of fun without me
