Transcript

Hey everyone, welcome to the withering effect. This is episode 12 today's date is September 1st. And I am Duds or Duds versus everywhere else. You see me. We also have a guest. Hello. My name is Nana Nena twitch streamer. Hello, and I'm oh, yeah, I do. Also mention, it should also be mentioned on the server owner of Lionheart S&P. Yeah say that's our special guest. I'm a punk out apple or bank for sure and we're going to talk about to Minecraft today.

But what if you would guys been working on this week? Let's see. I'm working on planning another Lionheart Legacy. Uh, see it's our first stream day. Or that our first launch is pretty successful. We got like I think six communities together to fight each other death to the battle. That was pretty good. Yeah. I watched part of that. That was extremely fun. Oh really cool that you get so many communities together as well. It really wise.

I had I was pretty busy today, but I was able to jump in and out for about 30 minutes at a time. It was pretty cool. I really liked it to the to the broadcast. Yes, like our broadcast. So the difference between us is that we actually got some people to spectate the whole fight. So rather than you seeing the player's perspective you see an overhead view and like you see

all the battle action. Yeah, well in see in the ripple effect guys, who obviously we Cheering for they all mentioned that they were going to put videos out on their stuff. So it's like that watch the main broadcast and I can get an overall View and then if I wanted to see there's I could go back and watch the Youtube video. So that was really cool. Yeah, so it's not like the same thing over and over exactly though.

It was funny to you and everyone talked about decoy being the boat ninja whatever and he's just hiding in the corner mentally screaming that he's good. I didn't really see much of it. Yes, it does sound like decoy. Yeah spoilers like he got this incredible shot. Oh, what a master up. Oh master and we all know decoy as the guy who would like place blocks and hide behind stuff because you're not very good at PVP. He's like don't really call music guy.

Yeah, he has a dark side. It's good to do good job. Um, but yeah, and I actually also have a IRL job interview on Tuesday. So no sweetie this Tuesday trying to try to get try to get that bank. I said, well, he's on the other side of the mic. But yeah, that's always nice to joke with dad jokes 10 o'clock in the morning. It's what I'm here for here all week. Yeah, I did absolutely. Nothing this week. It was an unintentional week

off. Basically Monday. I had tree guys out in the backyard making tons of noise. So I didn't record then and then I don't know what happened to the rest of my week. It just kind of disappeared. There were a couple of nights where I got like no sleep. So that was not in the sleep. Try to be on the microphone another night my dog got sick and I ended up getting out of bed to try to you know, get her off the carpet, right so and doing so I ended up kicking the corner of my bed.

And my pinky toe nail fell off which why that's not that big of a deal honestly guys falling off before because you know soccer player you put get stepped on it happens, but there's soccer player. Oh, yeah used to be in high school and now it's not anymore trust me, but and then doing the oh, son of a grabbing my foot. I ended up rolling the same ankle that I kicked in the pinky toe nail. A lot of the Rolling of the top of it wasn't as bad.

But yeah, either way I got the dog off the carpet in time. So yay. But again, this is leading to Duds had no sleep all week. So it does didn't record nothing. It's kind of nice to gaze in the other week great where you do like nothing. Yeah. It was a good refresh it meant the creative juices weren't really going though. So when I sat in front of a computer yesterday just are Record something I was like no. Yeah creativity and being tired

generally doesn't work out too. Well, at least for me. It doesn't yeah. No, but we did it wait take it. I'm still confused. So your whole told L fell off. Well all but a little sliver nail anymore. But yeah, they're gonna get like infected or something. Yeah. Like I said, it's done it before it just grows back. How long I don't know should I put a timer on how long it takes my toenail to grow back? Yeah, dude do a time-lapse of your toenail growth.

That would be the Twitter or you would probably have a good amount of used probably would that's the worst part it would probably be my highest gross video. I'm into that it's getting weird. It's too early for this. Yeah, but other than that the podcast did celebrate thousand listens. Yeah. Oh congrats. Yeah, what was it 10 episodes when we hit a thousand we've gained what another 200 since the 11th place to stay where we

were at like a thousand total. I think I'll posted in a Discord. So we had like 988 or something on the anchor thingy and then Friday I looked and we were like 1150 said that's like almost 200. I'm just staying core part for the pot. Yes, that that's amazing everywhere few days. Yeah, that's not including the YouTube channel and all that stuff also. Yeah. Yay us. That's so cool.

Yeah doing well congrats. Thank you speaking of gruesome injuries Bank. How is your hand it actually finally healed so I burnt my hands like one another. Week ago quite badly. So it was fully tape then and stuff. And then this Wednesday, I could start using it a little bit again on the mouse and stuff and then it just started healing really quick and Thursday. I was just using it fully again. So I'm back to well.

I modeled a lot and printed it out a lot because he just recently gather a new treaty printer, which I hadn't been able to use much because I burnt my hand so I called up in that and then I just played a bit of games as well just because I could again. Yeah. For the rest. Yeah, I didn't do much this week. Yeah, it's been a very low-key week. Mmm. But I mean that happens sometimes I guess.

Yeah, it's always nice to take a break especially because there for a while I was streaming three times a week putting on an episode a week and doing the podcast so weak. I got screened twice this week. Didn't you I only stream once this week. Oh, what's the weekly for that when you did twice? Yeah, right nothing.

Hmm, then nothing. Let's go into the Minecraft news because we actually do have some news there was another snapshot released 19 W 35 a so this does some more tweaks to the bees bees will now try to avoid water. I'm wondering how long it took them before they realized the bees were drowning themselves in the last snapshot. I didn't know they did that sound fun.

I guess it's good. That was kind of one of those like the warning label on the To bottle that tells you how to use shampoo because somebody who's not smart will just pour it straight in their eyes. So to me that's kind of what this is bees now try to avoid water. I don't think anybody really knew that bees were so dumb. They would fly into water. Yeah. I didn't know or that they would drown that'd be a good arm though way to farm bees it would sit in the water.

Let them fly to you. Yeah, let's put some water around that beehive done DZ. I like those cruel firms. Like they just drugged himself. Well, you did have what? Was it the zombie met where it would just spit out as zombies. Well, I kind of have that now with the skeletons as well. Oh, yeah. That's right. You did make it with the skeletons to seize.

Yeah. Get squished in and spit out bees nest are now more rare, I guess because whenever you open the world into a forest biome bees were everywhere. Oh, yeah, that's good that the I guess now they are sort of like a few of forest of something. Yeah, and I don't know if they're more rare now because it says bees nest won't spawn unless there is air in front and to the side of the nest or what

you can craft it to know. You can grab the hives but be Nestor the naturally jawbone's it sounds like they just week the sponson the behavior or a little bit on the bees and the bees nests like things they discovered them. They don't work out like having a narrow block sort of around somewhere. That's kind of normal for for Minecraft blocks. Yeah, I guess they forgot to do it with this. The Beast trying to get to his high but there's a leaf Block in front of it.

So just sits there and some are adjacent if you don't tree trunk or something. Yeah gives up and goes grounds itself and water. Let's see. I get it if we could land on believes they should they should have some space and that's true. The other update was if player tries to sleep in a bed that's occupied by a villager. You can tell the Villager to get the heck out of there. That's my bed. So I think that's kind of nice. Yeah, that's a that's a very good Improvement.

I like that. It sounds mean. Yeah, it is actually very nice. Guess I better get back to Farmer my carrots. Or get out of bed so we can keep the the mopes away from you. That's sure to could be seen as a nice thing. Yeah, you can sleep and be in danger all night, or you can let me sleep and they'll burn. Yeah kinda. Choice is yours. Actually that's kind of it for the snapshot newsbank.

You had something about hardcore that was actually also in this nuptial it was update, but it was a bit fake but I ran into it. Yeah, if you die in a hardcore world and you click like quit quit to menu, it's sort of books out. It doesn't really know what to do and it doesn't make you go to the menu you use first have to sort of well respond inspected them out and Quit which is a

little bit annoying. It's not that big of a deal but they fixed it. I run into that altitude doing the speedrun stuff because I always do those in there in hardcore mode. Wow, somebody's really enjoying themselves over here. Yeah, I could hear that one. Yeah. Yeah. So that's kind of nice. I guess that they fixed it. Yeah any annoying bug fixed to me. It's always nice no matter how long it takes to get done.

It's kind of a I mean normally you don't run into it as much I guess but still it's nice that they fix it. Yeah. Yeah bug fixes. So Minecraft Earth is now in beta for Android, which is nice because I don't have an Apple phone. Does that mean it's also like World why I did they stop doing like The Limited City stuff. I don't know. They didn't go into much about it.

Okay. I still don't I don't even know it wasn't available for Android. Yep, so you just couldn't Minecrafters. It's like the new Minecon right? No Minecraft Earth is z what you call it the VR game for your phone? It's totally up for you were and you weren't last year. Minecon was called Minecon Earth. And now the the VR games called Minecraft Earth, that's very good. And now the look like ons just called Minecon live. Yeah, they got confusing with snakes for a little bit.

Yeah. Some guy was like I really like the name Earth. We have to use it in everything. It's like nah, I mean I can see why the mobile game would be more suited to carry than a Minecraft Earth then yeah, there are their mind gone. Well, yeah actually outside messing with sort of Minecraft on Earth and sort of world white. You really get Minecraft in the real world. Where as I don't know. Michael yeah, I guess it's worldwide.

I don't know. Yeah, see now you're just confused as they were when they were trying to name something. Yeah, they should just have scrapped it all together and just went completely different way. I mean, who knows they still might they might I guess they were like, you know, Minecon live but sounds like I immediately go to livestream. Clay, so I guess that means more sense than yeah. They're like yeah Earth is available. Why not? Also with Minecraft up almost call it at Minecon.

See what you guys have done. Good Minecraft Earth mine gonna life. Yeah has also added rubies which you can buy with real money to spend on build pallets in game. So microtransactions. This is how the new free game is going to get its money its Tara wait to get rubies like without buying them. Can you earn them and game somehow or It like, you know, you have to buy them. I didn't see that. I know you can earn build pallets and everything in game like you don't have to buy.

But rubies are going to be the shortcut door. I mean, I don't mind having something that you can buy referral money that I hope they make it so you can also just learn it before what is it for Bedrock or the Minecraft Minecraft Earth game? Yeah. Okay. Do you know my do you know about that mobile game or a sort of I don't know it. Well, I thought that was she thought that was wrong. Oh, no, you know, it'll be for your phone.

It'll be mobile. It's using some kind of VR technology with your cameras and stuff like that. You basically place it junk inside your video camera screen. So you watch through your camera phone. So you see the real world and then you can sort of place it junk in there and build on that and dig in it. Well because I was saying like Bedrock already has microtransactions. Yeah. Yeah, you have to buy like skins and that kind of stuff, right?

Yeah, and like by world's there's like the coins currency. You can buy with real money or give away. Even if you're like partnered streamer. Okay? Yeah, so we don't really do Bedrock. So that's good to know. Yeah. Well, I kind of knew that was out there but I didn't really know that they used coins. I mean, I guess that's a hint will now they're gonna go deal with those rubies probably probably exactly because I want to say Minecraft Earth was Free and then they they're going to

pay. Ruby's or whatever to kind of make up the cost. I mean it's worked in the past for game. So I wouldnít I think I think it's a good system. Yeah, if it's a free app a game, I have no problem microtransactions. I actually prefer that because then it gives more people a chance to at least play the game. Hmm that makes sense. But that's kind of it for the news. We want to go ahead and remind you guys like we do every podcast. We have a Discord. Join it. Join it. I promise dog picks.

If you join that's where maybe you should start boasting like a picture and then that probably should they're probably like he doesn't own a dog. Yeah, I'll see no picture of my dog No Pigs. No proof. There will be a picture if your dog is. Yes. Yes a Susie come in the Stream often. Yeah, Suze can people who works his stream. They know that it's real deep fakes man makes yes, like I secretly I made it for you and stuff. Yeah. Okay, this is someone else's dog. Yes. I go rent.

My neighbor's dog for two hours why I've stream so let's go ahead and get on to our main topic. We need to be in here and everything. We wanted to do what it's like to be a server owner because we've all had some kind of experience doing that and I literally just kind of wrote down the kind of steps that go into being a server owner and then I say, let's go through those steps and then afterwards we can basically talk about anything random that comes with being a server. owner and such

Yeah, okay. So choosing a host to host your server on what kind of process did you go through to get the lionheart where it's at? Well line Hart dynasty. We y'all but actually started with Clan craft which is where some of the OG members were from including myself and then we kind of split from there. And then we're all like well, we still want to play together. Like what do we do now?

And so someone decided like what why don't we just go to the cheapest server Health that we could find and just went on from there. So it really depends on like your money situation and how many players are going to play. They're not only that the activity like the red stoners. Yes, you got to account for them to because if they're like mumbo-jumbo they like the server a lot then you got to account for that. So now we have luckily we have quebra and he like as a full-time job.

He makes bank. So I think we pay like over $200 a month. Wow our servers we have. Yeah, we have four servers I paid. For one that's for the uh c 1 and then there's our serve Anil has server Survival Creative server for the peeps that you know want to test things out and then we have another one or on hold that's been the future what we like when we finish our gaming District then other viewers can actually hop on the server and play in it. It's gonna be awesome.

Yeah, that sounds Amazing. Yes, so we just kind of have that on hold but it's we have a I think we use G portal but for my uh, see I use what's called Apex posting. Yeah, I've heard of them. I don't think it really matters.

What the host is as long as you look at the reviews what matters really is This the region server location that people tend to overlook because if you got like Banks here from Netherlands, I'm from America. You got to choose one in between so that we could both hop on and not have too much lag.

I remember when I had a server it was far different game, but they suggest that I would move to a server and France because there was like the main connection up between Europe and Pika so you had a solid connection there because like that was where The Line Game and basically so that yeah those things can affect a lot. Obviously if you're if you have a worldwide and sort of player base and that's kind of what happened with me and call me craft.

So I went with bisect hosting mainly because I could get a server that would be automatically backed up and being a new server owner. I had no clue how to do anything and they did. Everything I could do to just email tech support be like, hey, I want the server to do this and within an hour I get a response saying OK restart your server. It's all good to go. So I love bisect hosting. Yeah, they were really good with their support.

Yeah, usually once a year they have like some kind of blowout sale and every time you buy something from like the blowout sale where it's a lifetime thing so you can always find a server for like fifty percent off. And that's when I do it. So I need to buy and like an 8 gig server whatever from them to run comic craft off of but I only had to pay for like a four gig plus they were doing everything automatically. So I think I only paid like 40 bucks a month for it.

Well, you also know F like tiny server. That wasn't some ridiculous discount wasn't it? Oh, yeah. I got like a little backup server. I can't remember how big it is. What is it? Like, I think it's legs one one or two and a half. Yeah for something soon. Super small, but I pay $4.99 for it well to go back on by sex support actually because they were amazing because when I came around and started helping you out if the server like I could take care of most technical things, huh?

Like I'd like to think I was pretty good at sorting stuff out. But when I couldn't they fixed it within like an hour probably yeah, they were always every time you knew what they were doing. Yeah. Which also yeah, we had like four Mumbo Jumbo's so we killed the server a lot. Yeah. I want to say my first day on the server. I ended up building Tango Tex

iron farm. But I built it wrong because you know, that's what I do and it ended up crashing the server like really really badly to the point where they came back and said, hey you down like the entire server like multiple people went down because of this we're going to put you on spigot. So that doesn't happen again, and I was just like wow, okay, and then from then on what's the what happened? Like, how did you crash the sir? Command blocks. They're really fun.

Oh and there's a YouTube video that what I built Tango saying wrong the first time and the second time and then the third time I got really upset and was like, I'm not rebuilding the stupid thing again, and I found a YouTube video. I think it's name is like tumbled dumpling or something like that. It where you could put a command in and it auto builds the iron farm for you. Wow, and I did I flipped the lever too many times.

So it tried to build like three iron Farms on top of each other and also to serve our was really small back then wasn't it? Yeah, it was only like a three gig server at Max so it is my God. Let me see that makes sense. Yeah. Yeah ours is like I think 25 good. Yeah nice. Holy cow. And it's still it's still laggy cheese, like every time we go to He's our he's all red stone a guy. Because his pace is where the end portal is. You want to go to the end.

You have to load in his face and his face is filled with like Redstone stuff. Yeah. Yeah. Well as by frames, yeah, we ended up having to put a rule being like hey, if you're going to build a big farm, it's now a public farm and it needs to look nice and you can't die using it when we also make everyone would like an off switch on their Farm. Yeah and that too. Yeah, that makes yeah, but then again chunks couldn't autoload back there and stuff. So. It wasn't too bad.

But that kind of went into how many players are going to play on the server and stuff. Let's see. Obviously you need what is? Okay. I'm reading my notes that I'm realizing. I can't type with the darn. So we were talking about what kind of server you want to do. Obviously Lionheart Dynasty has everything. What do you mean by how many players are going to play? Well, that's how you choose the

size of server you need, right? If you only got five people you really don't need a large server. Hmm But if you got 25 people and 13 of them are mumbo Jumbo's you need a big server. Hey choosing the cake. It also depends on how they play too. Yeah, because like if you just got one more jumbled ya doing huge a huge restaurant built, which I'm not like hating on I

think it's really cool. but I do want to accommodate for that so We have 20 members in total and I don't know how many are active but there's we got like four I think for guys that are red Stoners and they all know what they're doing, but they are also like really nice and they try to make sure that their Redstone doesn't lag the server as well. So yeah that that makes it that I think that's separate. The good redstone dust from the

not so good ones. Yeah, uncommon crab Jimbo was our mumbo jumbo and he was still learning the game getting a feel for her because she was like us he came from console and saw what Java could do and said everything built big farms. Anyway before that, right? Well his big thing was his Guardian farm when he yeah that it was pretty laggy farmer. We just like hey, can you put an on/off switch for that? And he goes, yeah. Sure. I felt so bad because I have to I'll ask him so often like hey,

that's a bit leggy. Could you maybe yeah do something. I always felt so bad asking so often but yeah. Comes with the territory if you're going to do redstone be prepared. Yep. Yeah. Another big thing we had with doing the server owner was coming up with the rules. Like what my do you would allow people to use for the most part if it was client side, we were good if you weren't cheating, like I knew people wanted the mini-map obviously OptiFine was the biggest one those things

were good. But other than that, I don't think people that's client side. Yeah. That's what I mean. Did I say something wrong? Oh I see. I don't just confused. Sorry. I didn't finish my coffee. You're all good. Yes, a client-side mods were usually good except for when you went into like the x-raying stuff. Well, we didn't really like that with do fishing that kind of stuff. Oh, yeah or the auto fishing. It's so easy to do AFK Fisher. I don't understand the art of fishing.

We have a lot of because we have a lot of members. We have a lot of different people playing and having like their own opinions on like all that stuff like Auto fishing not x-ray. I think it's you gotta find the people that are similar to your interest in how you play as well in order to like have fun. But what we kind of do we just kind of let things happen. We did we try not to like

straight people too much. So we let Auto fishing slide of what we thought was more important was I guess the economy. Hmm. So if we have you know, you don't want like that one person to get all the money, right? Yeah. It's it's Also, we gonna work we all gotta mine for diamonds. So I guess like you it's important for the people that auto fish not gets those stingy with their books or whatever it is. Yeah. I don't know. It's it's hard trying to get

sir. I think part of the reason we also implemented that kind of thing is we had sort of an open application server like we were on the you yes or whatever so we had like quite a lot of traffic from people. Coming in and going out and if you allow things like an out of Fisher and out of clicker, that's gonna they gonna have insane Farms. It was sort of to prevent a lot of random people just building firms and then starting hoarding

Adam stuff for no reason. We had lots of players you have come build a farm and then just kind of leave like they didn't have a house. They didn't have insurance. That's all they did. It's like you we had a pretty extensive like application process.

Yeah, it wasn't super easy because that's the way we felt like if you were willing to sit there at fill out our crazy application and deal with the fact that we had a server vote to vote you in. And everything we felt that was enough to like okay this player obviously wants to be here wants to be part of a community, but not we get so many people who would just throw to farm and leave. Yeah, that's interesting. Yeah. Why did they do that? I don't know.

We also had a couple people who they've come on just literally x-rayed for massive amounts of diamonds. Yeah, they just went down and started like directly going for the diamonds. Yeah, it's like do you have a stack of diamond blocks three hours after you join the server. You don't think we saw that there's no plug in that disables x-ray mods. We didn't have anything anyway survived it. Yeah used a car. What was that plug-in Bank girl protect?

Yeah. We use core protect and it gave us the Even to make sure nobody was cheating without restricting. Basically. What I did is I once a day I used car protect and just checked like what diamonds like diamond blocks that have been mined and then if if one person with too much in a row like showed up, I would start investigate.

Yeah, see simple stop that it was like yeah, it was like hardly any work but really effective but it also so helped us know when somebody was stealing from another person because that's obviously a huge Nono on a server. Mmm. Well and I started playing them like an anarchy server where I like cheating is basically what you kind of have to so I started learning about all the things that were possible which obviously helped a lot as well.

Just knowing what they could do. So basically you learn from the darkness. Basically, yeah, I'm so glad we don't have to do that anymore. Sometimes it's funny. That's kind of fun to play investigator. But yeah, sometimes it just was a lot of work. Yeah, it seems tedious to do. Yeah, it really wasn't time. I'm not public servers are not for me. They require are a lot definitely a lot more work than than a sort of close to her. Yeah.

Yeah, like on ripple effect. I have no worries about any of my stuff whatsoever. And I love the fact that I can have that like if core protect wasn't working on common craft. There was no way I was getting off the server for that night. Just because I couldn't trust some people as far as I can throw him. I mean for the most part they're

all fine. Yeah, this kind of goes into promoting your server and how to make your server different from all the other servers out there because let's face it. There are a ton of different servers out there. But like I'm coming craft we tried to promote our server as like the public hermitcraft. We played a lot like them.

That's kind of Our server did and if you'd like that stuff you could come join ours and then we would add like the vanilla plus is what I want to call it and I'm super proud of some of the stuff we did because we were doing it before some of the other servers were and I'm sure there were other servers doing it before us but like using command blocks to do custom traders that would trade decorative mob heads or have

zombies and skeletons. Gallatin spiders drop currency, that's cool that you could trade. Yeah, like Comic-Con yesterday and we're going best thing ever. Yeah, they were so much fun to make as well. Hmm. They look like sort of Chinese coins. Just like a hole in the middle and then they were green and blue like each quadrant was like, how do you how do you say that? I was switching around like green and blue. Yeah sort of that because of the server.

I thought they were really cool. Yeah, you could Farm but Wasn't worth your time to farm them. It was just better to play the game and when they showed up. Oh, man. Yeah cool comic coins. So you couldn't really get we only got like custom hats that that sort of that creative things. So wasn't there wasn't much Point than getting a little bit. That's also hard to decide like

bouncing and economy. Yeah. Yeah. We were really were like we don't want to I don't know we would do don't want to make it they to win basically. So we just added gimmicky stuff. Yeah, did you guys have like a way for them to buy it with real money? No, no. Okay. No, I don't think you even accept it by donations to help pay for with you. Yes, and no so that one point there was a lot of uproar of we

want to play uh season stuff. But I didn't want to have to take the common craft server down to put a uh see up and then take the uh, see down and put the common Craft Server back up. So yeah, it's a pain. Yeah, there was I need to get a second server to do just uh Cs and at that point. I was like, I'm not going to buy another server for uh sees so I opened my streams up for donations. So any money I got from donations. I would put towards a uh, see Server.

We need up get the uh see Server and in I want to say we only did one, uh, see because it didn't go very well. We did All For You each see ya because it's like after people started dying. Well, I think I think it still was that but a lot of people went into spectator mode and just like raced around the map. So the truth of Christ, they would fly in random directions way out thousands of blocks out.

Surfing just couldn't handle it and then it crashed and how you never did like retry It Whatever a long ago was it? Um what two years ago? I know no no less borders. Was that before World borders? No, it was after World borders. A 12 orders will save you but yeah, we had never done the UAC. So you're just using what some guys on the server gave us to use that gay use this and it'll work. I tested a few out that I think it was a bit sketchy but I think

we use like the most usable one. Yeah, but anyways, the leftover money from that ended up funding like two months worth of the regular common craft server. So nice, that was pretty cool. Awesome. And that Gap is going for a while because the last map there is a point where I was ready to go ahead and just shut it down and not planning longer but that two extra months ended up rolling us over into another Minecraft update and and doing so gave them server a lot of

hype. So a lot of people joined and I kept a server going for like another eight months. Mmm, so that was cool. And then when I realized I was done trying to own a server and constantly having to moderate and because I found if you're not playing on the server on a daily basis on that public server stuff is going to go bad quick. And you have a just getting

burned out. So the only people left on the server really where YouTubers so that's when I went I went to Omni. Actually it is said hey, look, I know you have a YouTube server you play on a youtubing server? I have five people that want to make YouTube videos on a server and ripple effect ended up liking us and brought us in and that was the encumbrance nice. Yeah, it was awesome. I've I enjoyed the time owning a server just so much work. Especially the public side of it.

Did you have moderators Bank was the only moderator damn? Yeah. I mean the helps that I pretty much have no life. So I'll sit home all day pretty much just on Minecraft folder. Yes. Well II I think the first the first three or four months on the last map of gamma craft like I averaged 16 hours a day. He played I I basically woke up went to Minecraft and went to bed at some point. Yeah. Yeah, that was me doing summer during them college Years, but I

did. Yeah, I did ask other people to help out and I had one or two help out for a little bit but a lot of people would turn me down just because they're like well if I had the power to go into creative I couldn't stop myself from going into creative. Hmm. So I was like at least you're truthful. Yeah. Choosing moderators are heart it really is. Yeah.

I remember we talked about trying to get someone else and every time it's like yeah, but he and then but you just it's really hard to Well, like they often set themselves as well. It's hard to sort of control the power at sounds like it's a lot. But yeah. Yeah, it's whether it's like or servers or like just even for your channel. It's a moderator still they are some viewers.

They're like they're there for you or while but then like for some reason as soon as you bro, or when you were you just I don't know if some sort of success and they bounce it's like what what happened or like the you know life gets busy and then it's like iron just have a dead moderator. Yeah, I always got a or like maybe like they have different values. So like maybe they think that auto fishing is okay. They don't those darn auto Fishers. He'll never learn.

Yeah, it's yeah Choose Wisely. Yeah. Yeah, you got to get along that that helps my idea and choosing Bank as basically the main moderator was one I knew back then you had to do technical stuff and to a new bank had no life. I was like, well at first it was that I knew Bank was at an opposite timing because he's six hours ahead. So when I was at work and stuff, I knew he would be at home and be free to work on the server. I mean technically I was 6 hours ahead.

Practically I really wasn't I didn't realize this at the time. Because ghosts I had no life like my sort of sleeping pattern switch to I went to bed at like 8:00 in the morning. Hmm. Oh my God, I woke up at like 4:00 in the afternoon. So basically American times Yeah, you get no sun from your window because I need it to be dark or to go to bed. I have my window sort of blocked but that's also because right outside my windows is like the

walking path from my apartment. So I don't want people were looking. Well. They woke past my window anyway, but I don't want them to like stare right at me. That's what I got a little blocked off, but I do notice when I when I haven't seen Sun for a while. Dude, so people are walking by your apartment and looking in just immediately stare right back at them just because I don't want to be staring outside all the time. I just I don't want to be distracted by that that's annoying so fun.

That's the best part about living on the first floor the apartment we were at last time when people would walk by you just stare right back at him just definitely make the whole walking by my apartment uncomfortable so they don't do it anymore. Do you smirk?

I just want to slowly smile. I used to do that on my parents house when I was small light people would watch it and we just wave back at so that's kind of nice yeah yeah it was also like yeah I can see you watching like straight into the house hmm one of my neighbors have during Halloween so they have like the window right hmm but basically ground levels so during Halloween they would have a mannequin right at right at the window dressed up as well keep me out every single time see

those guys just thinks make me wish we had that as well yeah like it doesn't need to be gory or anything just a mannequin I mean that might be creepier than like a gory thing I guess As for sure, it creeps me out. Yeah all the time. I'm excited for Halloween this year because this would be the first year where to house instead of an apartment and we're in like a neighborhood filled with a good amount of kids so might have to do something fun for Halloween.

Can I come visit? I want to trick or treat. I forget you guys. Don't really do Halloween over there. No, I've never done that. I mean it's starting to become sort of a thing over here. Are now but it's just like dressing up and going to a party like the whole kids running through the streets that that sounds amazing. I wish we could do that when I was young. Yeah, a lot of kids nowadays.

They don't live in like suburbs. They just go to the mall because there's been articles about people like lacing the the candy is like drugs and stuff. It's like, what the heck Halloween dude yea now. Let's just go to the malls. Yeah trick or treat. It's like a whole new generation. It's wild. Yeah, it looks like that's cheating. Why would someone do that? I know it's so messed up. We would ruin candy like that. Yeah, they don't know. Well, I think that's going to be it for the podcast.

I think this one pretty well. Yeah. No, but you guys are we already at 40 minutes? Oh, yeah. We're almost 50 times slaying. Yeah, we're pretty easy right painless.
