    I was really good friends with this girl who went to the same after-school program as me and she would tell me about this Minecraft server that was super fun to play and make friends on every day. I didn't even have Minecraft at the time but me being in the fifth grade and wanting to relate to someone older than me, I got fomo. She told me she wanted to play with me, so I bought MC February of 2014 and started playing on this server the same day I got it and the rest is history. I never played on the server with her even though she was the sole reason I spent my mother's $27 and I'm not sure where she is now but hey if you're out there, Karen, thanks.

    Anyways I went through different stages of friend groups, from 2014-mid 2015 being the people in Creative 1. Ah what a time, roleplaying, skin competitions, god items. Everyone who used to be with me during that time period fell of the face of the earth however some of them recently resurfaced and it was fun to catch up. Nevertheless I only consistently talk to two of the people from then, one of them still being a really close friend of mine.

    Now we have my friend groups from mid 2015-now. I had two and only one of them have stayed consistent. Out of the four people in the inconsistent one I still talk to one of them on and off, two of them pretty infrequently, and one not at all because she's not a good person. I'll never forget the other three though, they got me through some shit.

    Now the ones that never left I am forever grateful for. The list is long and unimportant (as it is in my info page anyway) but I have never experienced more laughs and good times than with these people. We have watched each other grow, and some of us have even met in person which is so surreal to me. I may even be going to college with one of them. I still talk to my best friends daily, and even the ones that aren't as daily I love them equally as much.

    I owe so much of my character development to this server and the people I've met in the last six years of my life. I joined when I was ten years old pretending to be thirteen, and now I'm sixteen preparing to start doing college applications. The people I've met, and continue to meet have changed me for the better. I'm not sure how I befriended anybody when I was always the youngest and most annoying out of all of the people in my friend groups but I thank all of them for taking a chance on me and helping me work on myself. I forever love all of you.

    Thank you Jerry and Harry for introducing me to my life-long friends. I cannot express how grateful I am.

    Sorry for how long this is, my friends know I'm a sucker for nostalgia.

    I first joined the server around late 2013 or early 2014 because a friend irl asked me to play with her. I started playing on creative when head shops, god items, skin comps, and roleplays were a thing. I also played other games such as sg, build battle, oitc, spleef, hc, and parkour and started making a lot of friends on the server but after a while, they all started to leave and I got bored of creative so I tried factions. I'm not sure what year it was in but I started playing halfway through season 2 of factions.

    It wasn't until season 3 of factions when I started making really good friends, some who I still talk to every day to this day. After playing a few seasons of factions I got really bored because a lot of my friends had quit and I wasn't playing with the same people who made me enjoy it anymore as we were now in different factions and not really talking so I decided to leave too.

    After 5 months I came back because one of my friends told me that factions had just restarted and I was in quarantine anyway so I decided to give it another go. After it died within a week I started going to the hub and playing minigames and going back on creative I started making some new friends.

    Now after 7 years of being on this server I've made so many friends and a lot of my best friends now are people that I've met on here. I have a lot of really good friends and memories on this server and so many people I've met here have stuck with me for so many years. I honestly wouldn't be who I am today without the people that I've met on this server. The people who remain my friends continue to make me a better and happier person every day. So I have to thank Jerry and Harry for helping me find some amazing long-life friends. I will forever love all the friends that I've made on here.

    I was a huge fan of Jerry and Harry's "Herobrine's Chamber" video from way back in 2014 so when I got Minecraft on PC, I went to join the server and my username at the time was _Ravve_.

    Then I joined the forums in January 2017 and tried applying for staff on the day I joined and I got denied. I waited the month I was told to wait to make another application then I made my second application and I got accepted in April 2017 and I was a Helper for 4 months.

    I was 13 at the time so I wasn't mature at all as well as I had a big lying problem and I guess I "tryharded" for Moderator and it led to my demotion in September.

    It took me almost a whole year to get staff again and I made at least 3 applications with two being closed. I became 14 years old and I matured a lot so I reapplied in April 2018 and I got accepted once again in May 2018.

    I would say I did a lot better as staff on my second run as I just did the duties as a Helper. In June 2018, I got promoted to Moderator and I would say it was tough at first but just like Helper, it took a bit of learning to get to know the job and I soon got the hang of it.

    It was in September-October where my activity on the server started to decrease. I had school starting up again and I wanted to focus on school so I decided to resign from Moderator in October 2018.

    I made two introduction threads saying I returned then I fell inactive twice. I wasn't inactive for two years until I decided to fully return in April 2020 and this is where I am today.

    I found out about this server through J&H's YouTube channel. I was a big fan of them, and I used to watch a lot of their videos back in the day. As soon as I found out they had a server, I started playing on here. This was c. 2013-2014, so 6-7 years ago. After a while of playing, I found out they had a forum, so I made an account.

    I usually played on creative1. Or creative2. Whatever was more popular at the time lol. Chat would usually be filled with RPs, truth or dares, clubs, skin competitions and the like, and this was usually what I spent most of my free time doing. I would just come home everyday from school and waste my hours away on Creative. I don't regret any of those times, though; They are memories I fondly look back upon. I made quite a few friends, some of which I remain in contact with to this day.
    I also played a bit of OITC back then. I didn't know much people there, and I wasn't really that good, but it was a fun and enjoyable game to play.

    In late 2014, I wanted to start becoming more interactive with the more.. err.. well known people on here, so I started posting on the forums. Cringy posts, but nothing to write home about, really.
    In mid-2015 I started to develop a really cocky and aloof attitude. I was never satisfied without making at least one aggressive remark. Basically, I was a pain in the arse. I don't exactly remember why, either. Maybe it was the meta, combined with crazy mood swings.

    Fast forward to late 2016, where I miraculously became staff. At the time, my behaviour had toned down a bit. I didn't put much effort into tryharding for staff, I just hoped for the best, really.

    I'm grateful that I got picked to be staff. Over the course of 3 3/4 years, I've learned a lot of new things while being on the staff team. I'd also like to say that my maturity and attitude have improved drastically. I can handle heated situations while staying calm and collected, something I could've never done back then. I've made many great friends, some who have come and gone. There's been many unforgettable memories that have been made, and I sure hope there will be more to come.

    Excuse me if I made any mistakes, I'm sleep deprived as I'm writing this which is probably not the best idea.
