Hey all you planet Minecraft peeps. So i Just wrote up an entire blog. Only to find i managed to push something and delete it all :/ (What a retard ) , NotePad it is then.

So my Thalendor Castle is slowly getting there. Iv been working (not a quickly as i should be) on the inside , going floor by floor. The hardest part is 
doing the internal layout for the place.
I estimate around 40- 60 hours work left and it will be FINISHED for all you guys to have. 
You can even pretend you're like Harry Potter and run around going from class to class. YAY :D

Have you even had that feeling with a build when you made something that was ambit too overboard and have lost inspiration to build (even thought you think its pretty dandy) but all you want to do is finish it?
Well that how im feeling about things these days. But i will keep pushing on and maybe one day . It will be complete.

Is it just me or are people sorta getting over minecraft? (Talking about more veteran players)(No offense to the new guys)
I'm hoping that the new update will bring back some players and encourage other to play. 
I don't really play much or any survival mode these days.Only sometimes with a LAN with the gf or what not, but maybe il be intrigued to play more.

Ok now for the Ranting part (Yay :D )

Iv heard so many people complain about the Noob / BS / Retarded / Unfair / Biased XP System.

1st off. Yes it has it flaws , like everything , but its pretty fair. 

For all the low level guys complain about " How the popular people " always get on the reels. How girls always get subs and view.
How high level people always take XP from the low level. 

Lets just take a look at myself for example. I started on PMC at lvl 1 , like everyone else (Except maybe Paril XD) And their where maybe level 40 plus guys taking all the XP away. But i am almost lvl 40 now

The girl vibe:  They are GIRLS playing minecraft What do you think is going to happen.
They are girls playing minecraft (See i even said that again) . I shouldn't have to explain why they are more popular the other people :D

Now if you want to get on the reel and all that. Why not build/write/create something amazing and im quite sure you will get on the reel, Try advertising you project to everyone you can.
For example my builds take around 100 hours , Maybe try spending 100 hours on a project and then you can be on the reel. Stop uploading retarded square house you built in 20 min and 
expect to have a high lvl.

Now the other part XD , I hope that some people might back me up on this :
Could people please not leach XP off others work purely to gain XP.

For example creating a skins of the week , or builds of the month , or planet minecraft news or best build so far Blogs.
Some people spend hours , days, months creating a perfect project. And then someone comes along and uses their project in their blog and gets on the reel and leaches XP off that person.
Go and build/write/create your own stuff and upload it.

Im all for the idea of trying to advertise on other behalf, But go make a forum post about it and not just try get free XP for your 20 min creations.


Thanks :D hehe. 
Ps i sound alil angry but im not really. I just like to rage every now and again (but always have a smile on my face).

Stay well my beloved people. 
Love you all in the least homo way possible. <3

All our hard work, lets say I post a texture pack, then someone posts a project, and that project was popular and my texture pack had less popularity and I'm like whats that guy have that I don't for example the project looks like most of it was worldedited and the person doesn't say it was. All the hard work put into the texture pack probably was for nothing the person with the project leeched XP

I understand what you are saying. But its not like either of them just spent 20 min to get free XP. If you get what i mean. And if a project looks amazing in a texture pack. Everyone asked what pack it is. My point was more directed to the "project of the week posts"

I understand what you're talking about. Although I'm only a level 16, I earned my xp not by small boring builds, but by large (starship) or elaborate (battleship/normandy) ones. I could probably earn a lot more xp but within 2 weeks of my first build release, it was stolen so I often feel uncomfortable when releasing downloads :(

The blog has a point, but what you don't realize is when people do make a "skins of the week", or "top builds of the month", they are advertising whatever skins or builds that are in their blog or whatever, which can make those skins or builds even more popular. It's a way of attrwctig attention to the skins and builds etc.

I totally get that its kewl to help other people out. But i can tell alot of people are using it for der own gain. Like why not make a forum post (no xp then) if you truly want to advertise for other.
Like maybe they could an "not for xp" block so people can make them without giving them XP for others work. If you get what i mean.
