This one's for July Flame. Could you please add me to the PPC Minecraft realm? I tried to reach you on the chat but haven't heard back. No rush, obviously.

Thanks.

The large house near spawn is communal and free to use and take resources from appropriately marked chests if/before you decide to set out, please be respectful of anything clearly marked as someone else's, if you start destroying things willynilly (especially near spawn) and someone says something about it you have the chance to fix it.

Basically it comes down to try and be respectful of others on the server.

Have fun.

Ah, what the hell, same. by VixenMage on 2016-07-06 18:47:00 UTC Reply

You probably remember my username. But if not, it's Thulcandran

This whole "that thing you did/they did/I was hurt by when we were all stupid teenagers is unforgivable" feud has gone on too long. At least on my end.

And as an aside, I think if hosting it ever does become even a bit onerous, several of us would be happy help you crowdfund it.

I do remember.

I actually came close to emailing you a few times on deployment. Maybe I should have.

I thought you might. by VixenMage on 2016-07-07 06:16:00 UTC Reply

Given, and all.

Honestly, I'm not sure I would have made the same answer when you first put it up. I was still pretty caught up in the whole thing. And, to be honest, if I start thinking about everything that happened it still gets me fairly emotional. But I've done a lot of thinking fairly recently about discourse, and grudges, and emotional reactions.

Essentially I recently watched an argument about semantics degenerate into highschool-level bullying. Which made me quite irritated, because I think changing over to a discourse of kindness, rather than a holier-than-thou point system, is the only way to change things.

And then I realized I've been carrying on a highschool-level feud for a few years now, and felt like kind of an idiot.

I don't think I can jump straight back to being close friends, but I certainly think gnashing my teeth in the direction of everyone I've ever had a serious argument with is a good idea.

All of which is to say, essentially - I'm sorry. I was treating you badly, and you deserved better than that, and I will try to do better.

I am willing to help if the need arises, too. by Sergio Turbo on 2016-07-06 20:15:00 UTC Reply

By the way, I'll put here my username again here so all requests stay in one place. I'm SergioTurbo there.

Sorry for the delay. by JulyFlame on 2016-07-06 22:58:00 UTC Reply

Life has been hectic the last several days. But you're added, the little spiel I said in reply to GMA applies to everyone.

No worries. By the way... by Sergio Turbo on 2016-07-07 17:06:00 UTC Reply

I notice the grass path out of the communal area is littered with craters - are these supposed to stay there as "battle scarring"? Because otherwise I can spare some time to repair the terrain (after all, to start building my treehouse I have to wait for the actual tree to grow - without bonemeal that's going to take a while)
