Hey. I know this is going to be cheesy, unnecessary, and really emotional on my end looking back at my memories. I won't be here during the final meetup, which is why I'd like to express myself here. So everyone can see how the server has affected my life without me having to say it aloud into a microphone, lol. I believe I started playing on PlotsMC in August 2014, when I was just starting middle school. Contrary to what everyone says, 6th grade was extremely easy for me. Which left me a lot of time to play on PlotsMC and meet new people. All my specific memories are all a blur at this point, except for blabbering random stuff in chat. So basically exactly how I am now. I do remember working with people and making a tall house.. which I thought was really cool at the time. I got to make some awesome friends, but I haven't seen them around in a long time. This was probably around the time I met Cptbubbles848 . I was doing a skin competition. While I was eliminating players throughout the rounds, I somehow didn't notice Cpt who was standing on the far left side. I must've been using the wrong Minecraft version, because I didn't see his skin, as it looked liked a Steve skin to me. I only noticed him by the time it was only him and one other player. After me and him trying to figure out the problem I had with my mc versions (I was really stupid at the time), the other guy left. So I just gave Cpt his prize and went on with my day online. From that point on, we continued to recognize each other in game and do really random stuff together on Plots and eventually in Creative and Survival-1 (which comes later in this story). When PlotsMC was merging with NC, it was a confusing time for me. I didn't understand the concept of merging and I was quite against the change of leadership and everything like that. I quit for about 3 months and didn't come back. By the time I came back, a lot had changed. I forgot how to play Plots and I needed help. When I left 3 months prior to this, I was being an ******* to say the least. I thought nobody would be able to help me get back into the server. However, staff members were eager to help me and many others who needed help. I was relieved and amazed that the server, staff team, and overall community were so accepting and helpful. After a few months of hard work, Marshmont and shrekster reviewed my plot on Marsh's channel. Me being the unoriginal person I am, I saw that Marsh was mentioning the Survival server. At the time, I had no idea what to do. I was stuck in spawn with my land claim kit and no idea what to do, so I continued on Plots for a few more month. Eventually, I went back to Survival. Fortunately for me, DaFrostArcher was giving away this cave home far in the wilderness with some random junk. I gladly accepted as I had nothing on Survival. I continued to expand the cave and now it's the way it is today... or at least the way it was as of today. It was probably after my whole Survival phase that I started moving up in ranks to NobleVIP. I started exploring things, like SkyWars, KitPvP, and GMS which were very exciting and action-packed for me. I specifically really enjoyed KitPvP and being the salty kid I was. I'd always go around with my *** screenrecorder trying to find hackers and teamers. Mostly to no avail. It eventually got to a point where I was in full p1 diamond and a sharp 3/4 sword with full pots. It was almost to a point where it was unfair- which made it fun for a kid like me. However, KitPvP caused a lot of conflicts between my friends and I, which I'd be more than happy to leave behind me and not mention. It was around January or February in 2016 when I stopped caring about NobleCraft and moved onto a new server with a much larger playerbase. I became a big player there and quickly neglected NC. I started being the toxic numbskull most of you probably remember by summertime. I was having such a good time with the other server that I forgot how much NC meant to me and how much it grew me into the player I am today. A couple forum bans later, I finally had a chance to apologize and move on with my time on NC. By that time, I had stopped with the other server. It was getting boring to me and the community was too toxic. I started to play a little on Survival as Plots and creative were shut down by that point. However, almost no players were online when I was. I moved to the updated Skyblock, but barely any players were there either. Most were afk as well. I kinda got the idea that nobody was really online ingame anymore, so I stuck to the forums and continued to communicate there. Soon after, the closure of NC and themerge into Neme was announced. It made me realize that things you spent so much time on, met so many people on, and really enjoyed yourself on- could be gone and you can't do much about it except move on. And I think that should be something we should all keep in mind moving forward- to always make the most out of your time. If you read to here, you're amazing. Thank you for listening to my endless rambling. However, whether you see this or not, good luck in the future. To everybody here- ally or enemy.
