Before August 1st - Prologue

[kerl126]

Recent controversial events in Mindcrack & PlayMindcrack prompted me to write this. This might be a beginning of a story, or I might disappear on you guys again. I don't know.

But here's goes:

Before August 1st

A story of what could have been…

“You have to realize that Guude pulled a GenerikB when he left Mindcrack. He realized what GenerikB had realized back in 2013: that you can’t really dedicate yourself to two communities, and that one of them would have to go by the wayside. In a different world, it could have been the Buffalo Wizards that Guude stopped hanging out with, but here Guude was already intertwined with the Buffalo Wizards in Mario Kart 8, in Garry’s Mod, in Tabletop Simulator, in Space Engineers, in Call of Duty, and most importantly, in Lords of Minecraft.” –Parvis, Vidcon 2015

“As for the others, Millbee was the BdoubleO equivalent of Mindcrack, Pyro the Coestar equivalent, Pause the Avidya equivalent, Coestar the Aureylian equivalent, and Baj the Biffa equivalent. VintageBeef and Arkas as well, but I don’t have any more former Hermitcrafters who I could pair them to. All of them, Guude included, were just getting too separated from the rest of the Mindcrack community, and they’ve for the most part lost interest in vanilla Minecraft and UHC. As they spent more and more time with the Buffalo Wizards, the border between this group of Mindcrackers and the actual Buffalo Wizards started to blur, until they acted as one group. And as they spent more and more time with the Buffalo Wizards, they spent less and less time with the other Mindcrackers themselves, until there were de facto two separate groups within Mindcrack. It was only a matter of time before the Mindcrackers acknowledged this fact.” –Juicetra, Vidcon 2015.

You know.
I am just scared about what is to hold for MindCrack.
What if some of the members leave?
What if theres more fights?
What if... Mindcrack ends?
I am very scared.
Ever since Etho and Doc made a reddit post thinking about leaving the server and Guude and Rob fighting I have been very scared. 😢😰😫

Mindcrack most likely won't end end until all the Mindcrackers quit LPing. But that being said, the way things used to be is gone. If you're looking for the S3 shenanigans most consider "The Good Old Days", it's not gonna happen. But Mindcrack, as a group and not necessarily a server, is still great and entertaining and something to enjoy, it's not bad or ruined like some seem to think, it's just different. And the sooner everyone realizes that and changes their expectations accordingly, the better.

Maybe it's just how I'm reading this, tho I doubt that seeing as I've read it like 6 time attempting to understand it, but this makes no sense to me at all. Very confusing. I assume there'll be be more explanation in future chapters.

Me too... I know right? Anyway, I always think that maybe Mindcrack won't be there someday. I don't really know what I am saying anymore... Oh well. I'm so lost

I'm...of the opinion that IRL things like this shouldn't be written about in fics. This feels too much like invading something private.

Also I'm really no quite sure whats going on with what you wrote, it's kind of confusing? But I know what it's talking about and it's really something that shouldn't be speculated on or written about in my opinion.

I really think this sounds good. Please continue. I think the plot sounds AMAZING and just the simple idea is unheard of.... PLEASE CONTINUE OR I'LL DIE
