Zoomer didn't exist until Boomer started to crop up as an insult, and didn't really take off until le 30 year old forced maymay that retards clung to like meme leaches.
You can easily force a meme by just repeating it enough times, just look at how many pseudo generals here have at least one (X)poster who materializes within the first 20-30 posts to drop their ebin catchphrase. When everybody is anonymous, it's easy to create the illusion that more than one people is doing something.
the thing I don't understand is the motive
was he just some teenager with too much time on his hands who wanted to be able to say he is the original creator of an epic Ganker maymay or was it something more sinister?

I subscribe to the idea that it was genuinely a marketing ploy from Monster. Wojacks were actually getting extremely severe backlash at the time and posting one would regularly get you called a massive gay, this both feels out of touch for the era and also accidentally ended up reviving Wojacks. The fact that a lot of people INSISTED that the 30 year old boomer MUST have a Monster Energy Drink ™ at first was also really fucking fishy IMO. It also genuinely got a bunch of people to try Monster like
I started drinking monster energy and smoking cigs because of this meme and so did half my friends lmao
The term didn't exist yet.
Zoomer comes from Boomer, which (though referring to baby boomer) only became a meme in the late 2010s/
Zoomer was the gen Z version.
Back in 2010 Zoomers were still kids, and so people talked about the preceding generation, the millennials

They really stroke gold considering minecraft hadn't fully exploded in popularity yet and it wouldn't surprise me if a good chunk of it's early popularity was purely from their playthrough
From what I remember there was some point in the mid-2010s where the Minecraft team pretty openly admitted that the game wouldn't have blown up in the same way without the Yogscast. Can't remember where it was said anymore though.

If you watched lets plays, especially a fucking minecraft lets play in 2010, you're a zoomer
>gimmick was loud == funny

If you want to mock zoomers, do it right.
>You now remember Better Than Wolves
I remember the pre-forge era of modding, where you had to manually modify your game's JAR files and delete META-INF.
What a time it was.
Remember when indev was only a single chunk?
Remember when there was no survival?
Remember when minecraft was just creative mode with like 20 bricks to choose from.
I'm still surprised that nobody attempted a mod that adds a malicious entity that stalks the player, as well as custom dungeons and villages, npcs with dialogue systems and generally an rpg storyline with an original ending.
>as well as custom dungeons and villages
I played mods with these features in 2012 my guy
I wish those guys that made the "From the Fog" mod would add it to 1.7.3. I want to play old minecraft while actually being haunted by Herobrine. Would be kino.
should have mentioned for modern minecraft specifically
I know there used to be separate mods back in the day that did this but as far as I'm aware many of them haven't been updated for any recent versions of the game
You might be baiting just for someone to spoonfeed you but Dawncraft on modern minecraft still does exactly this, short of the being hunted by something.
I wish those guys that made the "From the Fog" mod would add it to 1.7.3. I want to play old minecraft while actually being haunted by Herobrine. Would be kino.
I remember there was this random guy on YouTube who made an unsuspecting YouTube series of him playing Minecraft. He was kind of an idiot and he made a couple penis shaped houses, but as the series went on he very clearly was being haunted by Herobrine. Nothing ever came of it and the series didn't blow up. I wish I could find it now, I think it's been lost to time
Don't feel bad, I did too. I thought their Survival Island series was what Minecraft was about. As in I thought the game Minecraft started you on a little island every single time. It wasn't until I started playing that I realized their weren't any NPCs or story missions or anything. >t. 25 year old zoomer
I fell for Syndicates airship & city thing he did in that one episode and tried to get "the event" to happen in my own world, we were all retarded kids
i was about 13 when shadow of israphel was first starting, all of my friends at school would debate as to the nature of the other players in the series. one of my friends was adamant that they were NPCs. everyone still thought it was real though

why wouldn't you backport features from later versions instead of adding stupid modded shit like dyed wood and steel
I've seen many "1.7 expanded" mods. Is this the best one? How is it compared to the others?
bro how do you fuck up such an important feature of beta minecraft
what the fuck?
wow they made it look exactly like numinecraft
fucking retarded
It's not modpack, it's a fork of 1.7.3. Parts of the game engine and game were completely rewritten. >why wouldn't you backport features >We have a pretty firm rule against backporting gameplay features from newer versions of Minecraft. This restriction means that BTA is more distinct from later versions of the game, as well as meaning we have to find more unique and creative solutions to improving the game. Some examples of what not to suggest are Endermen, the End, or hoppers.
It's an alternative universe Minecraft, so they trying to keep it at minimum. >changes the features that don't need any changes. picel is gargamel seed with BTA.
Yes, they altered world generation by increasing the height, making rivers actually cut through the terrain and added new bioms. >wow they made it look exactly like numinecraft fucking retarded

what I mean by moddedcore is that the features resemble little timmy's first minecraft modpack.
anti-backporting is a fine stance. but when the features they chose to add are worse than ones in later versions of vanilla minecraft... that's just kinda sad
increasing the surface scale is actually bad. low resolutions obscure the noise that's used to generate the world. (see figure b)

>fire spreads 15x as fast and can grow to infinite sizes
I remember how Simon and Lewis burned down their original base because simon lit a single blook on fire and then within about 30 seconds half of their floor was ablaze. Good times.
>fire spreads 15x as fast and can grow to infinite sizes
I remember how Simon and Lewis burned down their original base because simon lit a single blook on fire and then within about 30 seconds half of their floor was ablaze. Good times.
Removing the genocidal speed that fire used to spread was so dumb. I hated it almost as much as hunger. Shit was fun.
>log into multiplayer server >craft flint+stone >place one(1) fire
I watched the Creatures. Nova, Kootra, Spoonerism, Gassymexican. All those fuckers before Kootra ran them into the ground. The Minecraft era for the Creatures was good times.
I think this was the first minecraft video I watched when I was little, though I clicked off within a min cause I thought they were using speedhacks when Simon lurched forward due to lag lol.
Not that guy but two of the main guys, Turps and Sjin, were caught messaging a couple of their fans. I don't think there has been any confirmation that they were underage, probably 18 at the youngest, but Turps and Sjin were married so it was a small controversy.
Sjin is still going as a solo gig. If I recall correctly, Sjin was accused of this behaviour in the past however nothing came of it. It was only when a very new member to the network, Caff/Caffcast, was caught by his discord/twitch mods as an actual groomer that the old rumours around Sjin got brought back up.
Sips is the only YouTuber/streamer I watch. About once I year I get the urge and I'll watch a recorded stream series from his live channel. Loved his DadCraft series. Good taste, anon.
Same. Things were so much simpler with trolololo and trollface. I miss it. Also you could say gay or retard in a game lobby and no one would bat an eye.
This may sound like im joking but I legitimately think Kony 2012 was the start of the end. Weaponizing facebook for a political-adjacent issue showed people the real power of social media.
nah I think it really started with chanology. Fuck Mark Bunker if anons back then hadn't listened to that gay and done real life protests then none of this would have happened
>It was generally just a better time on the internet, before the internet was the primary battle ground for real life issues.
It's weird how the internet use to be an escape from the real world, and now if you need an escape you stay the fuck offline.
I miss when they stayed in their containment forum. Goons are the gayest fucking people online and you can spot the old vanguard just by the way they type.
These people have nothing left to be proud of, anon. I'm sure at some point they probably realize what they were doing was a waste of time, but by then it was too late.
I have a masters degree, a great group of friends I've known since elementary school, a well paying job, and a girlfriend of 3 years I plan on marrying. I don't think I'll be eating them any time soon.
My favorite bit of SA lore is that cartel torrent trackers absolutely couldn't stand the fact that goons have a private tracker (WDMA) that had a limited time to get in, so they went out of their way to ensure there would never be a goon presence on the likes of What/Red, HDB, etc, but this didn't stop goons from eventually getting into positions of power in those trackers anyway, so WDMA had recruitment threads for them, much to the seething of cartels
When Martin started crowdsourcing an invite to What, this turned cartels 200% more paranoid and they ramped-up the member curating, and very mysteriously, a handful of old WDMA accounts were phished, used to get entrance into Red, followed by Red admins snapping at their goon friends to the tune of >WTF THESE NEW ACCOUNTS JUST HAPPENED TO BE PHISHED AND ADMITTED TO COMING FROM WDMA???? GIVE US THE INFO AND EMAILS OR >>>ALL<<< GOONS IN THE SCENE WILL BE PURGED AND YES WE HAVE THAT POWER EVEN AS A TRACKER
Admins who looked the other way for WDMA recruitment threads threw those goons under the bus immediately and demanded raw HTML copies of all recruitment threads, emails, and PM's, which they used to ban EVERYONE even remotely connected to WDMA. Many goons who thought they were gonna go somewhere in the scene were shitcanned over this, and as of now, there are ZERO recruitment threads for any tracker worth a shit
Considering the timing of all of this, it was clear that cartels just wanted to make even the old goons fuck off for good, as WDMA had equally-autistic recruitment rules and site security, and Martin paranoia was a smokescreen. When I tried to get my 1.2TB up account back on IRC, the generic sysop told me to "fuck off forever on my fake tracker". As an interview tip, do not use the term "fight club rules" EVER if you get asked about any private trackers you don't wanna reveal, because the sysop is immediately gonna tell you something to the tune of >Oh? Which one? We're on all FC trackers too!
Never ever in my life I failed to find anything I need on public torrents. I never understood what's up with the autism with private trackers. I am torrenting shit for almost 20 years. Certain particular things that are "too illegal" are idiotic to share through p2p. And the rest is on public trackers.
The same reason autistic anons use phrases like 'spoonfeed': having something that someone else doesn't gives them a sense of power, although I enjoy the fact that most torrents on Red will have at least ONE seed if you want something obscure, but at the same time, that one seeder is doing so because he's scared shitless he'll be purged, as ever since the goonocaust, Red and co. are even more uppity about opsec and tracker netiquette
Hard to say.
We were never told specifically what Sjin did or didn't do.
We know he messaged fans in a sexual manner, which violated Yogscast rules, so he stepped down/was made to resign in 2019.
Some people like discord or twitch mods, or the egirls that the yogs hire have said Sjin did way worse, but those people are insane so who's to say if they aren't just seeking attention or overreacting.
This was the video that convinced me to ask my parents to buy Minecraft
I wonder if I still would've bought it if I had the precognition to know what a piece of fucking shit the game would be turned into a decade later
>Make minecraft good >HERE >Install this shitty modpack with 325 random not curated mods mishmashed together and 305 of them dont make any sense or coherency with the other mods and just add more confusion as to what to do
This has been my exact experience with every modpack I've tried so far. I especially hate having to bind 200 keys when I first start. Some of them don't even take into account different UI element placement and so you get some that overlap and cut off others.
No matter how much Ganker might give me shit for it, these guys introduced me into the world of modding games when I was a 12 year old retard and I enjoyed their showcasing of different Minecraft mod
Also sips was always hilarious and I relate with him a lot more now that I'm also a dad
I knew nothing of minecraft except various rumors and since most people played on low render distance it did seem like a kinda spooky game. I really thought this was real until around they went to that village
I'm pretty sure Leo was like 19 when she joined the Yogscast. There was no way Lewis was any younger than early 30s at the time. Doubt he would ever risk that relationship, especially a pseudo-boss/employee relationship after their other controversies.
I can't remember, was that Christmas stream where he got absolutely fucking wasted beyond belief and said the most insane shit imaginable after he broke up with Hannah? Because that was the most based I ever saw him. He didn't give a single fuck, it was amazing.
I remember watching that thinking "Yeah he's had a few drinks, but there's no way he's going to get actually shitfaced on a livestream right?" And then he just kept drinking and drinking and drinking. If I remember right he has something like 15 fucking drinks by the end of the stream, it was insane.

And then he just kept drinking and drinking and drinking. If I remember right he has something like 15 fucking drinks by the end of the stream, it was insane.
From what I remember it started out pretty basic drunk talk and then rapidly devolved into going full "FUCK YOU FUCK EVERYONE. ANOTHER DRINK? SURE WHY THE FUCK NOT?? FUCK YOU YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO, JUST FOR THAT TWO MORE DRINKS. I'M YOUR BOSS, I OWN YOU. I FUCKING OWN YOU."

It was based beyond belief. I thought after the crazy trannies drove Sjin and Turps away with bullshit rumours, and Strippin got the fuck out of there, he had finally reached the end of his rope. But no, once a cuck, always a cuck.
Did they ever finish the Shadow of Israphael stuff? I think the last episode I ever watched was the one where they find a submarine base which was probably 12 years ago at this point
>Fat swede invites chud he has a crush on >(s)he ends up coming out as lesbo >pushes "her" lesbo girlfriend into the group, guys are too cucked to refuse >that girlfriend now transitions into a guy >fat swede still doesn't get the message
And that's the story of Rythian and Zoey
Yeah they it was pretty great since they gave zero shits and were broke losers. Lewis lived in his mothers basement and played wow all day, resulting in the best podcast ever made.
I really do hate it that youtube content isn't as profitable. Edited, high effort content is infinitely more enjoyable than watching clips from streams.
this, I kinda hate that youtube let twitch eat its fucking gaming section, I fucking miss edited gaming content of games that come out at a reliable pace
and I fucking miss super best friends
all my gaming toobers moved to twitch, disappeared or stopped making gaming content
all the oldies are fucking gone and I can't find any good shit that feels soulful and isn't the fake as fuck feeling corporate hellscape that is the small room of streamers who hangout together and do dumb shit
>Spike&Barley
I recall a year ago or earlier this year that they were gonna make new videos or something. Spike from what I can tell is ultra depressed or something so I'm not sure what's going to happen.
>You just memory hole the 1000 members their channel had on like LittleWood and Flax and all these nobodies who are even more forgotten than the main cast are now
I remember watching like TF2 videos that one of them did and that was 2014?
He actually didn't do it. He was a shit boyfriend by account of his ex but he didn't do the other stuff the other girl said. One of the first high profile youtubers that got falsely #MeToo'd.
For those of you looking for a Minecraft series that captures the feeling of discovering the game for the first time, I can recommend this:
It's an English subbed let's play of a Japanese guy doing a blind playthrough of the game. The catch is that he knows absolutely nothing about the game and figures everything out through brute force and experimentation, avoiding external resources like guides and youtube comments. Allegedly, Mojang saw this and it inspired them to add more ingame hints to things like Nether portals.
It is the year 2023 and I am grownass 32 year old man still listening to the first couple years of yogpod at least a couple times a week. I have probably heard them all hundreds of times up until the nordrassil radio one and not really any after that. unironically the comfiest show ever about a decade ago I used to fall asleep to them fuck I'm a sad sack
Hitting on fans, plus it seems he may have been inappropriate to some degree to some female coworkers.
It's hard to say how inappropriate, given that those women are women, and thus crazy.
So it could have been as minor as Sjin not taking the hint and crushing on the two girls for longer then they were comfortable, or as serious as full out sexual assault. We just don't know.
Given that Sjin was never arrested, I'm guessing it's not the latter
>Microsoft keeps sending me threatening emails that I either sign up for their gay system or I'll lose Minecraft I bought from notch here on fucking Ganker almost 14 years ago >been getting these for like a year, newest one said I only have until the end of this month or its joever >fine, go through the gay ass account migration >get to the last step after verifying my account >"an error as occurred please contact support"
FUCK THESE moronS. How can they take away my game? I didn't sign any new EULA, I didn't agree for microgay to demand I make a Microsoft account. How is this legal?
I kinda wish minecraft stopped updating a while back, not really a fan of the newer stuff and the nether update.
I feel like the current direction of things being large scale megaservers trying to emulate MMOs and the development trying to steer towards some sort of fleshed out world with civilizations, history, and people was a mistake.
What made the game interesting was that the only thing out there was you, some monsters, and whatever you built yourself.
Wait are these the same people that did how to videos for wow tbc raids that were just them talking about random nonsense for the whole fight while running out of ammo on their hunter?
I miss the creatures and even cowchop, it was one of the last youtube channels that I regularly watched and basically ended the exact time that I graduated and had to enter the real world
>Super Hostile maps
Man I remember those. They were all so cool. Shame they stopped making them and they stopped being a trend. They got kinda killed by hunger, hunger ruined everything
He never changed, even in their more recent videos where they play GTA or TTT, he acts like such a child. >video of them playing a gta race >at a point where you have to drive off a ledge to reach a checkpoint >he spends like 10 minutes not moving, blocking everyone because he didn't want to risk falling off and not coming first
Their short bit "Sunshine of Israpony" was a 3? part end to Shadows of Israphel. Surely, by the fact that that was the last set of videos in universe, it's canonical.
I used to watch a youtuber called X or something. Even watched a good chunk of his Skies of Arcadia playthrough, which is how I came to know about the game.
One day, his wife (who you could sense was a landwhale through the screen) started pushing her way in and making him do sponsorships and beg for money.
I whined in the comments because I was a kid and got promptly banned by her.
I unsubscribed and never found out what happened in SoA until I made my boyfriend play it.
Did people really need guides on how to function in Minecraft back in the day? You just punch trees for a few minutes and get some stone and kill any animals you find. I guess I could see people getting owned by creepers back when they weren't common knowledge to even people who've never played the game.
i recently rewatched a bunch of their modpack series from scratch, i'm up to ozone atm. also been watching some of the civ games. i don't watch the main channel anymore but lewis and ben's xcom runs were amazing
idk I watched them up until 2020 and he seems just as weird now as he was back then.
He's not very present on the channel at all and hasn't been for a long time.
I am also 32 and played since Creative. I was in the early Ganker lobbies making nazi powerbases in mountains and giant gold thrones and shit. I stopped playing after getting burned out on Minecraft in college and consider all this new fangled zoomie shit fascinating but apart from where I left off with the game.
Actually I just turned this on again for the first time in two years. Only took me a couple days in survival to beat the dragon and get the elytra. Way way faster than my first go (but I didn’t build anything).
The game is missing some of its original soul but its still alright. I hear 1.20.2v is going to make getting mending and other villager spellbooks a nightmare. My next playthru will probably take way longer.
I remember getting actually jumpscared the one time they did a transition scene with a herobrine screamer because I used to watch these videos really late at night on my ipod touch when I should have been asleep.
>rewatch SoI a bit back >when they get to the carnival >the fake black voice they put on when ooka is talking or whatever his name is

loud = funny is mostly still the meta today

crack cocaine has been a joke for decades already anon
Anon real Zoomers are in their mid teens at least now. Gen Alpha are the current children.
Oldest zoomers are 26 right now.
t. One of them.
Highschoolers are the youngest zoomers now.
Yeah so effectively aged out of the giant 8-14 year old boy demographic that fucking loves that shit
Gen alpha is what YouTubers are selling to now
nah the meta is definitely sex jokes

Zoomer didn't exist until Boomer started to crop up as an insult, and didn't really take off until le 30 year old forced maymay that retards clung to like meme leaches.
Friendly reminder that that whole meme was extremely astroturfed and quite possibly an aggressive marketing campaign for monster energy
>divide and conquer
they won
And it fucking worked, this place is so fucking shit.
The worst part for me was seeing this catch on outside of Ganker and realizing this gay succeeded in his gayry
You can easily force a meme by just repeating it enough times, just look at how many pseudo generals here have at least one (X)poster who materializes within the first 20-30 posts to drop their ebin catchphrase. When everybody is anonymous, it's easy to create the illusion that more than one people is doing something.
the thing I don't understand is the motive

Lewis pretended, Simon didn't know it was staged for a good couple episodes in the beginning .
This is the ultimate "zoomercore" (in the best way possible).
the singular good minecraft youtube series. nothing else has ever or will ever come close.
Still kino.
Also props for finishing the series at a high point instead of trying to make a career out of fucking Minecraft like everyone else.

I remember the pre-forge era of modding, where you had to manually modify your game's JAR files and delete META-INF.
What a time it was.
You absolutely still can get wool by punching sheeps. You also get food.
By killing them, yeah. Otherwise you need a shear for wool. This is especially important since animals don't just respawn in front of your house.
Remember when your first spawn was always on sand?
>always spawn on beach implicating you just washed ashore
SOVL
Remember when indev was only a single chunk?
Remember when there was no survival?
Remember when minecraft was just creative mode with like 20 bricks to choose from.
You are nothing little zoomer
I'm still surprised that nobody attempted a mod that adds a malicious entity that stalks the player, as well as custom dungeons and villages, npcs with dialogue systems and generally an rpg storyline with an original ending.
multiple mods exist that do exactly this
should have mentioned for modern minecraft specifically
I know there used to be separate mods back in the day that did this but as far as I'm aware many of them haven't been updated for any recent versions of the game
You might be baiting just for someone to spoonfeed you but Dawncraft on modern minecraft still does exactly this, short of the being hunted by something.
>as well as custom dungeons and villages
I played mods with these features in 2012 my guy
I wish those guys that made the "From the Fog" mod would add it to 1.7.3. I want to play old minecraft while actually being haunted by Herobrine. Would be kino.
I remember there was this random guy on YouTube who made an unsuspecting YouTube series of him playing Minecraft. He was kind of an idiot and he made a couple penis shaped houses, but as the series went on he very clearly was being haunted by Herobrine. Nothing ever came of it and the series didn't blow up. I wish I could find it now, I think it's been lost to time
Don't feel bad, I did too. I thought their Survival Island series was what Minecraft was about. As in I thought the game Minecraft started you on a little island every single time. It wasn't until I started playing that I realized their weren't any NPCs or story missions or anything.
>t. 25 year old zoomer
same here. i searched up "Mindcraft" on my iphone touch 4 youtube app and the survival island series came up first
I thought that they were using actual AI/NPC programs for Shadow of Israphel for WAY too long
You're not the only retard I seriously did too. Messed up my perception of Minecraft since this was my first introduction to the game.
I fell for Syndicates airship & city thing he did in that one episode and tried to get "the event" to happen in my own world, we were all retarded kids
lmfao same here anon, I even told my friend and he believed it
i was about 13 when shadow of israphel was first starting, all of my friends at school would debate as to the nature of the other players in the series. one of my friends was adamant that they were NPCs. everyone still thought it was real though

You sure?
Minecraft used to be more fun with all of these things. I remember combat used to be scary and engaging
Play Minecraft better than adventure
I've seen many "1.7 expanded" mods. Is this the best one? How is it compared to the others?
>Play Minecraft better than adventure
shit mod that adds barely anything and radically changes the features that don't need any changes.
picel is gargamel seed with BTA.
Pretty sure there's an option in the world generation settings that allows basic 1.7.3 world generation.
bro how do you fuck up such an important feature of beta minecraft
what the fuck?
Did they change the color of the water?
wow they made it look exactly like numinecraft
fucking retarded
>Oldworld
Anon, care to explain?
it's the world of old
>start modpack
>walk around for 30 seconds
>close game
It's not modpack, it's a fork of 1.7.3. Parts of the game engine and game were completely rewritten.
>why wouldn't you backport features
>We have a pretty firm rule against backporting gameplay features from newer versions of Minecraft. This restriction means that BTA is more distinct from later versions of the game, as well as meaning we have to find more unique and creative solutions to improving the game. Some examples of what not to suggest are Endermen, the End, or hoppers.
It's an alternative universe Minecraft, so they trying to keep it at minimum.
>changes the features that don't need any changes. picel is gargamel seed with BTA.
Yes, they altered world generation by increasing the height, making rivers actually cut through the terrain and added new bioms.
>wow they made it look exactly like numinecraft fucking retarded
?
what I mean by moddedcore is that the features resemble little timmy's first minecraft modpack.
anti-backporting is a fine stance. but when the features they chose to add are worse than ones in later versions of vanilla minecraft... that's just kinda sad
increasing the surface scale is actually bad. low resolutions obscure the noise that's used to generate the world. (see figure b)
>resemble little timmy's first minecraft modpack.
They are going for dumb simplicity.
>increasing the surface scale is actually bad
Works fine
better than adventure is moddedcore.
why wouldn't you backport features from later versions instead of adding stupid modded shit like dyed wood and steel
It's the same deal as Team Fortress 2 Classic. They are unsatisfied with newer additions and want to make their own alt timeline mod.
>I remember combat used to be scary and engaging
well yeah, you were 12 years old
>Everything is deadlier
>Can kill creepers before they detonate with a stone sword by spam clicking
Removing the genocidal speed that fire used to spread was so dumb. I hated it almost as much as hunger. Shit was fun.
>fire spreads 15x as fast and can grow to infinite sizes
I remember how Simon and Lewis burned down their original base because simon lit a single blook on fire and then within about 30 seconds half of their floor was ablaze. Good times.

For me, it was Seananners.
Max can you pretend like you're Morgan Freeman when you're coming to kill me
I can smell you
I fucked his sister. Not joking
Was she hot
man oh man did I ever use to love seananners and the crew when I was in high school, then funhaus in college and unfathomable alcoholism after that
I watched the Creatures. Nova, Kootra, Spoonerism, Gassymexican. All those fuckers before Kootra ran them into the ground. The Minecraft era for the Creatures was good times.
>grabs wool

The Creatures.
God I miss these times like you wouldn't believe. Take me back

Oh man the Inside Gaming/Funhaus golden years were some of the best YT content there was. Too bad about them nowadays.

You could see the spark of life and joy gradually wither in his eyes the last couple years of his youtube career. A rather unpleasant sight to behold.
I think this was the first minecraft video I watched when I was little, though I clicked off within a min cause I thought they were using speedhacks when Simon lurched forward due to lag lol.
That'll happen when you end the series without a conclusion
I'm still mad they never finished shadow of israphel
Why'd they stop it again? Was it because they lost the world files or some conflict with the team that was doing it or what?
Yea I heard it was because they lost the files but that was probably an excuse
Server updating nonsense. And their cast became their own channels.
IIRC they were working on some animation for the story that never got completed and i think that the whole thing became too complicated
I still keep up with Sips on his Twitch stream, he's still a pretty funny guy
Shame that two of the people in their company were nonces though
>SHE WAS 19 YEARS OLD YOU SICK FUCKING BASTARD
>two of the people in their company were nonces though
qrd?
I used to walk past the Yogscast office in Bristol when I went for lunch
Not that guy but two of the main guys, Turps and Sjin, were caught messaging a couple of their fans. I don't think there has been any confirmation that they were underage, probably 18 at the youngest, but Turps and Sjin were married so it was a small controversy.
>Sjin
Aw man, I used to love Sips & Sjin's MC series. 16 is the legal age so it's definitely not noncery at least.
Doesn't matter. Twitter roasties spoke and so Lewis fired him
I mean using your position as a mostly children's influencer to talk to your fans as a married man is a bad look no matter how you spin it.
Sjin wasn't married
You're thinking of Turps
Sjin is still going as a solo gig. If I recall correctly, Sjin was accused of this behaviour in the past however nothing came of it. It was only when a very new member to the network, Caff/Caffcast, was caught by his discord/twitch mods as an actual groomer that the old rumours around Sjin got brought back up.
Sips is the only YouTuber/streamer I watch. About once I year I get the urge and I'll watch a recorded stream series from his live channel. Loved his DadCraft series. Good taste, anon.
this was the first time i genuinely hated something on youtube
It's sad how every single thing related to SA has turned into either dust or shit including this place.
It was generally just a better time on the internet, before the internet was the primary battle ground for real life issues.
Same. Things were so much simpler with trolololo and trollface. I miss it. Also you could say gay or retard in a game lobby and no one would bat an eye.
This may sound like im joking but I legitimately think Kony 2012 was the start of the end. Weaponizing facebook for a political-adjacent issue showed people the real power of social media.
I think you might have a point there, anon.
nah I think it really started with chanology. Fuck Mark Bunker if anons back then hadn't listened to that gay and done real life protests then none of this would have happened
>It was generally just a better time on the internet, before the internet was the primary battle ground for real life issues.
It's weird how the internet use to be an escape from the real world, and now if you need an escape you stay the fuck offline.
I can't keep up with all these abbreviations, but it's funny to imagine you're talking about sexual assault
I miss when they stayed in their containment forum. Goons are the gayest fucking people online and you can spot the old vanguard just by the way they type.
It's turned into a transexual hugbox shithole, and anyone left posting there is the stereotypical 40+ year old pink haired degenerate.
old goons are pretty chill, at least the ones I've interacted with.
Sane here. What the fuck is SA?
South America
Sexual Assault
Super AIDS, a must deadlier version of regular AIDS
Something Awful forums.
That's the actual name by the way, I'm pretty sure it's a pay to enter forum where the biggest rejects live.
zoomies dont realize youtubers abbreviate rape as sa in order to avoid demonetization. its not really a thing people say
Something Awful, South America, San Andreas, South Australia, Sexual Assault, South Africa, take your pick.
I will be the same Ain't I. A 20 year old dumb zoomer will wittnes the idiocy of the next group of Life losers on this forum.
its getting bad isnt it
get over it boomer
WHAT'S AN 'EBAUMS WORLD'?
GAIA ONLINE? IS THAT SOME SORT OF HIPPIE COMMUNE?
>it was always called Ganker you dolt.
>At least it has for as long as I've been here
But it has always been called Ganker. Ganker is clearly a different site, just like 2chan is.
Shoot me if I hit 30 and cling to how much time I've wasted in front of my computer as my only source of pride.
Save us the trouble and just get on with it
Right? lmao
So many people on this site wearing the fact that they've spent 10+ years on here shitposting like it's an accomplishment
These people have nothing left to be proud of, anon. I'm sure at some point they probably realize what they were doing was a waste of time, but by then it was too late.
You'll be eating those words anon.
>crabinabucket.png
You seem insecure
I have a masters degree, a great group of friends I've known since elementary school, a well paying job, and a girlfriend of 3 years I plan on marrying. I don't think I'll be eating them any time soon.
Nobody asked. Are you trying to impress us?
statistically it won't last
Why the fuck you jinx it like that?
And yet you are here, the very place virgins and rejects of humanity post. You're not any better

Sorry anon...
Shes either sucked on black cock or has at least fantasized about it.
Its over for you, cuck.
How about I shoot you right now
My favorite bit of SA lore is that cartel torrent trackers absolutely couldn't stand the fact that goons have a private tracker (WDMA) that had a limited time to get in, so they went out of their way to ensure there would never be a goon presence on the likes of What/Red, HDB, etc, but this didn't stop goons from eventually getting into positions of power in those trackers anyway, so WDMA had recruitment threads for them, much to the seething of cartels
When Martin started crowdsourcing an invite to What, this turned cartels 200% more paranoid and they ramped-up the member curating, and very mysteriously, a handful of old WDMA accounts were phished, used to get entrance into Red, followed by Red admins snapping at their goon friends to the tune of
>WTF THESE NEW ACCOUNTS JUST HAPPENED TO BE PHISHED AND ADMITTED TO COMING FROM WDMA???? GIVE US THE INFO AND EMAILS OR >>>ALL<<< GOONS IN THE SCENE WILL BE PURGED AND YES WE HAVE THAT POWER EVEN AS A TRACKER
Admins who looked the other way for WDMA recruitment threads threw those goons under the bus immediately and demanded raw HTML copies of all recruitment threads, emails, and PM's, which they used to ban EVERYONE even remotely connected to WDMA. Many goons who thought they were gonna go somewhere in the scene were shitcanned over this, and as of now, there are ZERO recruitment threads for any tracker worth a shit
Considering the timing of all of this, it was clear that cartels just wanted to make even the old goons fuck off for good, as WDMA had equally-autistic recruitment rules and site security, and Martin paranoia was a smokescreen. When I tried to get my 1.2TB up account back on IRC, the generic sysop told me to "fuck off forever on my fake tracker". As an interview tip, do not use the term "fight club rules" EVER if you get asked about any private trackers you don't wanna reveal, because the sysop is immediately gonna tell you something to the tune of
>Oh? Which one? We're on all FC trackers too!
Never ever in my life I failed to find anything I need on public torrents. I never understood what's up with the autism with private trackers. I am torrenting shit for almost 20 years. Certain particular things that are "too illegal" are idiotic to share through p2p. And the rest is on public trackers.
The same reason autistic anons use phrases like 'spoonfeed': having something that someone else doesn't gives them a sense of power, although I enjoy the fact that most torrents on Red will have at least ONE seed if you want something obscure, but at the same time, that one seeder is doing so because he's scared shitless he'll be purged, as ever since the goonocaust, Red and co. are even more uppity about opsec and tracker netiquette
you never had interest in anything truly obscure then, simple as that
for me, it was this
poor sjin got done dirty
what happened?
Hard to say.
We were never told specifically what Sjin did or didn't do.
We know he messaged fans in a sexual manner, which violated Yogscast rules, so he stepped down/was made to resign in 2019.
Some people like discord or twitch mods, or the egirls that the yogs hire have said Sjin did way worse, but those people are insane so who's to say if they aren't just seeking attention or overreacting.
Sjin now makes solo videos about modded minecraft
Man I used to love their tekkit playthrough back when I was in elementary school. Time flies.
All I can remember is that Lewis' girlfriend at the time was a massive bitch
Hannah was a massive bitch, such a bitch in fact that she had to leave the group.
>That shit was over a decade ago
my fucking god
I miss it...
gut churning gayry, could never stand them for a single second
the concept of "so.y" wasn't even a thing at the time yet I still felt it
You were too old
aren't they alchoholics now?
This was the video that convinced me to ask my parents to buy Minecraft
I wonder if I still would've bought it if I had the precognition to know what a piece of fucking shit the game would be turned into a decade later
Alpha was the most soulful version , tnt wars and the floor is lava was kino
>Make minecraft good
>HERE
>Install this shitty modpack with 325 random not curated mods mishmashed together and 305 of them dont make any sense or coherency with the other mods and just add more confusion as to what to do
This has been my exact experience with every modpack I've tried so far. I especially hate having to bind 200 keys when I first start. Some of them don't even take into account different UI element placement and so you get some that overlap and cut off others.
Probably for the best/ Micromoron ruined minecraft. You're too good for what it became v_v
No matter how much Ganker might give me shit for it, these guys introduced me into the world of modding games when I was a 12 year old retard and I enjoyed their showcasing of different Minecraft mod
Also sips was always hilarious and I relate with him a lot more now that I'm also a dad
Sips is streaming right now
His stream is cancer
I think his stream is worse than his personally edited YT content but if you simply close the chat window, its mostly the same
Does he still have text-to-speak donations? That's the cancer
I knew nothing of minecraft except various rumors and since most people played on low render distance it did seem like a kinda spooky game. I really thought this was real until around they went to that village
>Tourist newfags actually proud of their ignorance
truly a society
You now remember the arc where Lewis almost became based after breaking up with Hannah but then became super cucked when he dated Leo
oh, I remember.
god what a mincey gay
Isn't she like half his age?
She's 30 hes like 38
I'm pretty sure Leo was like 19 when she joined the Yogscast. There was no way Lewis was any younger than early 30s at the time. Doubt he would ever risk that relationship, especially a pseudo-boss/employee relationship after their other controversies.
Everyone knows they dated. They also broke up and Leo is legit a crazy bird lady
I can't remember, was that Christmas stream where he got absolutely fucking wasted beyond belief and said the most insane shit imaginable after he broke up with Hannah? Because that was the most based I ever saw him. He didn't give a single fuck, it was amazing.
I remember watching that thinking "Yeah he's had a few drinks, but there's no way he's going to get actually shitfaced on a livestream right?" And then he just kept drinking and drinking and drinking. If I remember right he has something like 15 fucking drinks by the end of the stream, it was insane.
Kek what sort of shit was he saying
From what I remember it started out pretty basic drunk talk and then rapidly devolved into going full "FUCK YOU FUCK EVERYONE. ANOTHER DRINK? SURE WHY THE FUCK NOT?? FUCK YOU YOU CAN'T TELL ME WHAT TO DO, JUST FOR THAT TWO MORE DRINKS. I'M YOUR BOSS, I OWN YOU. I FUCKING OWN YOU."
It was based beyond belief. I thought after the crazy trannies drove Sjin and Turps away with bullshit rumours, and Strippin got the fuck out of there, he had finally reached the end of his rope. But no, once a cuck, always a cuck.
Also, Ridgedog was also driven away.
Every story i hear about yogscast makes me think of the gamexplain breakup
Literally every group falls apart at some point. You can't turn friendship into a business.
Top comment is right
>Nobody asked. Are you trying to impress us?
>U mad?
>get le trolled xD
Why did this guy have pubes on his Minecraft character?
Did they ever finish the Shadow of Israphael stuff? I think the last episode I ever watched was the one where they find a submarine base which was probably 12 years ago at this point
>Did they ever finish the Shadow of Israphael stuff?
The series goes on for a while after that, but they never did finish it
the last episode they made was over a decade ago. Never finished it.
>Jeremy vs the Space morons
For me, it was SkyDoesMinecraft
He threatened his gf into having a child with him and he smashed her dog against a wall. Currently in a psych ward
Even back in the day this guy struck me as too zoomerish to appeal to me.
Same deal with a lot of the later Mindcrack members.

>pushes "her" lesbo girlfriend into the group, guys are too cucked to refuse
>that girlfriend now transitions into a guy
>fat swede still doesn't get the message
And that's the story of Rythian and Zoey
I had no idea that Zoey was a chud during the tekkit series, but I had a crushed for him
The YoGPoD is the best podcast ever made and nothing I've listened to before or since has topped it. But a few have come pretty close
The first 20ish episodes were genuinely great
>that episode where Simon reads shitty Creepypastas to a drunk Lewis
>listening to yogpod while mowing the lawn
comfy mid teens vibes ngl
>Your granddad was a bee?
>I am Dave! Yognaut, and I have the balls!
>naut
I am Dave! yognaut *salutes*
The RSK podcast/XFM shows top it for me
Yeah they it was pretty great since they gave zero shits and were broke losers. Lewis lived in his mothers basement and played wow all day, resulting in the best podcast ever made.
Good riddance
>Hello Robbaz here, king of Sweden!
He's just some "meh" streamer now.
Yeah, unlike someone like Jerma who's good at both scripted and unscripted content Robbaz just isn't built for live perfomances.
For me it was watching lewis crush everyone in civ 5 while duncan always sat in the corner of the map like a cuck
Based. I loved their Civ 5 videos. There's no vidya shitposting quite like strategy game shitposting.
Sometimes I think about Lewis's deranged oil rant from their Galacticraft series.
HELLO SIMON HELLO LEWIS!
Fuck me this channel waa my child hood and played Minecraft while watching their videos take me back!
I liked Hole Diggers
I have all the yogscast badges in TF2
I really do hate it that youtube content isn't as profitable. Edited, high effort content is infinitely more enjoyable than watching clips from streams.
this, I kinda hate that youtube let twitch eat its fucking gaming section, I fucking miss edited gaming content of games that come out at a reliable pace
and I fucking miss super best friends
all my gaming toobers moved to twitch, disappeared or stopped making gaming content
all the oldies are fucking gone and I can't find any good shit that feels soulful and isn't the fake as fuck feeling corporate hellscape that is the small room of streamers who hangout together and do dumb shit
>Spike&Barley
I recall a year ago or earlier this year that they were gonna make new videos or something. Spike from what I can tell is ultra depressed or something so I'm not sure what's going to happen.
I miss those little old men
The video where Barley's yelling at his dog is still like in my top 5 favorite YT vids of all time
I’m surprised nobody has brought up Mangopack, an ambitious project to create a Beta 1.7.3 modpack which has all the classic mods from that era.
>You just memory hole the 1000 members their channel had on like LittleWood and Flax and all these nobodies who are even more forgotten than the main cast are now
I remember watching like TF2 videos that one of them did and that was 2014?
Didn't they play MVM with Notch at one point?
Theyve done community highlander cups before too and its why they have badges in-game
I remember them because of the Sanctum cameo, but nobody except me remembers Sanctum.
I CAN SWING MY SWORD SWORD
He actually didn't do it. He was a shit boyfriend by account of his ex but he didn't do the other stuff the other girl said. One of the first high profile youtubers that got falsely #MeToo'd.
He motivated children to work in the coal mines
For those of you looking for a Minecraft series that captures the feeling of discovering the game for the first time, I can recommend this:
It's an English subbed let's play of a Japanese guy doing a blind playthrough of the game. The catch is that he knows absolutely nothing about the game and figures everything out through brute force and experimentation, avoiding external resources like guides and youtube comments. Allegedly, Mojang saw this and it inspired them to add more ingame hints to things like Nether portals.
the nether portal episodes were great, stopped watching after that though
It is the year 2023 and I am grownass 32 year old man still listening to the first couple years of yogpod at least a couple times a week. I have probably heard them all hundreds of times up until the nordrassil radio one and not really any after that. unironically the comfiest show ever about a decade ago I used to fall asleep to them fuck I'm a sad sack
Still kino and still on their channel despite Sjin being unpersoned
>Sjin being unpersoned
why?
Hitting on fans and one was 17 YEARS OLD YOU SICK FUCK
Hitting on fans, plus it seems he may have been inappropriate to some degree to some female coworkers.
It's hard to say how inappropriate, given that those women are women, and thus crazy.
So it could have been as minor as Sjin not taking the hint and crushing on the two girls for longer then they were comfortable, or as serious as full out sexual assault. We just don't know.
Given that Sjin was never arrested, I'm guessing it's not the latter

Etho
quality of the videos went down hard around 2013-2014. the second the forced enthusiasm started creeping into their voices it was over.
I kinda wish minecraft stopped updating a while back, not really a fan of the newer stuff and the nether update.
I feel like the current direction of things being large scale megaservers trying to emulate MMOs and the development trying to steer towards some sort of fleshed out world with civilizations, history, and people was a mistake.
What made the game interesting was that the only thing out there was you, some monsters, and whatever you built yourself.

What always impressed me about Yogscast is hpe much Duncan stood out as a massive insuffersble gay, among a group of British Minecraft Youtubers.
what didn't you like about him?
he seemed chill to me
He never changed, even in their more recent videos where they play GTA or TTT, he acts like such a child.
>video of them playing a gta race
>at a point where you have to drive off a ledge to reach a checkpoint
>he spends like 10 minutes not moving, blocking everyone because he didn't want to risk falling off and not coming first
He’s always been a massive immature gay. Even when I was younger and less judgmental I got cringe vibes from the neckbearded cunt
>the canonical end of this series was in an MLP modpack video
Was it, dare I say, Kino?
wut?
Their short bit "Sunshine of Israpony" was a 3? part end to Shadows of Israphel. Surely, by the fact that that was the last set of videos in universe, it's canonical.
Duncan is Cartman in these two scenes. Except instead of turning Kyle into a chicken he continuesly nukes their gameplay servers.

I used to watch a youtuber called X or something. Even watched a good chunk of his Skies of Arcadia playthrough, which is how I came to know about the game.
One day, his wife (who you could sense was a landwhale through the screen) started pushing her way in and making him do sponsorships and beg for money.
I whined in the comments because I was a kid and got promptly banned by her.
I unsubscribed and never found out what happened in SoA until I made my boyfriend play it.

Did people really need guides on how to function in Minecraft back in the day? You just punch trees for a few minutes and get some stone and kill any animals you find. I guess I could see people getting owned by creepers back when they weren't common knowledge to even people who've never played the game.
It was kind of comfy when they would mess around with shit like Dead Island and MMO's and before all the trannies joined
i never really was into watching others play. but i kinda regret it, because its how my friend learnt how modded minecraft works.

I just don't know if it will hold the same magic for me. I liked the original cast
The YogPod was shitting on Warwick Davis before Ganker
Truly ahead of their time

Their jingle jam streams are the only live-streams I watch.
Lewis constantly gets wasted beyond belief.
Shame Simon is such a weirdo now.
>Shame Simon is such a weirdo now.
QRD? I haven't watched them since around 2013.
idk I watched them up until 2020 and he seems just as weird now as he was back then.
He's not very present on the channel at all and hasn't been for a long time.
he still streams / appears on youtube occasionally
he's very fat and bald now

I'm 32.
I played minecraft since creative.
And I have no idea what the fuck this is.
I am also 32 and played since Creative. I was in the early Ganker lobbies making nazi powerbases in mountains and giant gold thrones and shit. I stopped playing after getting burned out on Minecraft in college and consider all this new fangled zoomie shit fascinating but apart from where I left off with the game.
Actually I just turned this on again for the first time in two years. Only took me a couple days in survival to beat the dragon and get the elytra. Way way faster than my first go (but I didn’t build anything).
The game is missing some of its original soul but its still alright. I hear 1.20.2v is going to make getting mending and other villager spellbooks a nightmare. My next playthru will probably take way longer.
>watching ecelebs
>ever
fucking have a nice day, disgusting subhumans
?
The black screen sequences with the doo doo dee dee music playing is peak soul.
I remember getting actually jumpscared the one time they did a transition scene with a herobrine screamer because I used to watch these videos really late at night on my ipod touch when I should have been asleep.
>rewatch SoI a bit back
>when they get to the carnival
>the fake black voice they put on when ooka is talking or whatever his name is
You couldn't get away with this now. Funny shit
Alpha and beta were peak comfy, anything past release 1.6 is garbage and anything past release 1.12 is unplayable and fucked beyond repair
