Recently I have noticed people calling out players for using the chat filter. It just happened to me for the first time which is surprising because I swear all the time, and I make sure to spell it all correctly so that the filter does its job. So I guess my first question is: Is it okay to swear with the chat filter? Back when I played from when I started in 4 years ago to about a year ago when I stopped, it was always okay for people to swear as long as they let the chat filter censor it. At least, I cant remember even once that someon...
Servers across the board are at all time lows, the youtube community which was an essential part in spreading minecraft in the first place, is bringing in less then 10% of the views they used to in most cases, and the number of daily sales and active players at any given time has decreased significantly. Maybe minecraft is still doing ok, but it is with a demographic of 12 and under, and I would guess a shift away from PC and towards other platforms. I know personally, my minecraft experience consisted 95%(at least) of multiplayer and youtu...
I made a post on my wall about why mcball can't recover, and most people seemed to agree with it. TNT suggests we get a big youtuber to come on and we would have the fanbase to support the server, but the reason this wont work is the reason MCBall can't recover. Even the biggest youtuber, Skydoesminecraft, is bringing in just over 200,000 views on a good day, most of his tend to get around 150,000(for reference, he used to get millions every single video, literally over 20 times better then he does now. His first cops'n'robers video got 17 m...
I men, yeah... he has a point... at this point, a ban from the server would mean absolutely nothing. But the reason why you can't get a refund is because theoretically those your donation has already been spent. The first priority of the donations is to fund the server, and so supposedly the money you donated has beenspent already. While in actuality there more then enough money to run the server and waffle has probably pocketed the extra, if everyone quit the server and wanted a refund, then there wouldn't be enough money to dish out. Al...
But you are assuming current science and the current scientific method are flawless or almost perfect all the time. I am guessing that there will be many misconceptions that science believes to be true now that will seem so silly in the future. I would guess even revisions to the current scientific method. If you elaborate on the extensive studies behind it, then it is completely valid to throw in that number to show how those studies effected the opinions of experts, but to just say 97% think one way doesn't prove anything. In fact, I woul...
This thread seems to have taken a very different direction, but there is a lot here I would like to respond to. First off, I believe in climate change, and I don't see any reason why not to. It like, not believing in gravity. Its just there. I personally think there are many much much much more pressing issues, like the 795 million people starving in the world(that was just a quick google search). But seriously, even if it was up for debate, why would you choose not to believe in it? Even if it didn't exist, there is no reason we shou...
The voting tests actually were a thing in the US in the past, and they were made illegal(I think maybe even in an amendment) because of what they did to America. They were originally used as a way of keeping the uneducated and undereducated African Americans from voting in the South. Uneducation shouldn't keep people from getting a say, that's the beauty, I think, of democracy. Also, the questions you posed are very opinionated, and are essentially "Are you liberal or hold liberal ideals and beliefs at least somewhat?" Posing questions th...
Lol, when you are on vacation during the Presidential election... I have a crap ton to cover, and a lot of opinions people don't like, so be warned. I am going to reply to Toxic in the manner he replied to Jazzy. Jazzy's will be in orange, Toxic's will be in blue You're clearly a Trump supporter, but I want to reiterate as best as I can. No, but seriously, this is 1. A jump in logic, and 2. Why would that change how you talk to him. You act like "Oh, Trump supporters... they are all idiots and we shouldn't talk to them because they a...
