Ever since I first found out about the ABS, I knew that was the group I would find great friends in. And even though I have only just recently started applying for the group, it was also because of them that I am the builder I am today. They had inspired me so much to keep pushing forward. To never give up on building and to never give up on pushing my imagination to the limit.

I had always viewed them as the older sibling I never had, even if some of the members were younger than me. But up till recently, they have since disbanned. This heartfelt loss has..... in more ways than one shattered the way I viewed PMC. I can't imagine PMC without them. This is the reason why I'm here writing this blog now.

I know not everyone here on PMC likes the ABS, but seriously folks! WAKE THE F*** UP!!! Just because you heard something bad about them doesn't mean you should hate them. Just because you can't build, doesn't mean you can't get better. And more importantly, JUST BECAUSE YOU FEEL LIKE YOU CAN'T JOIN DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN'T TRY.

With every goal, comes hard work and dedication. That's what these people who are a part of the ABS have shown us all. But more importantly, Antiqua most of all had shown the greatest dedication of them all for the group. Always creating banners for the other members' projects, and always looking out for not just them, but her friends as well. And just b/c you don't like her, doesn't mean you shouldn't give her a chance!

And to top things off, I'd just have to say that without the ABS around on PMC, there's really no point for me to even try to do anything on MC. You guys have been my hope of achievement here on PMC. And it's not just me either, there are quite a few others out there that are a part of PMC that you guys will be letting down. But I just have to say though in all honesty, disbanning the ABS will only mean that you guys are letting yourselves down, and not just the PMC community. I, like many other PMCer's, still have high hopes for you guys, even if some people don't see what we who have these hopes do. Don't let those who don't have these hopes bring you down, you're stronger than that. I know this cause, we who do have these hopes are a part of this fight as well, and always will be till the very end.

So, to the ABS, I thank you for all that you've done. Just please keep in mind that you still have those who support you every step of the way!

And Antiqua, like you've always told me, never give up. The Antiqua I know wouldn't give in so easily. You've made it this far, so why quit now? Keep pushing forward and don't be afraid to ask for help from the rest of us as well.

Don't forget to show your support for the ABS as well. PMC will never be the same without them.

To be honest that Antiqua person was really mean. I've seen her badmouthing people just for criticising some aspect of her work. She was polite to those who asslicked her but to the rest she behaved like a... you know who ;]

I was wondering what happened to the Photoshop Block Society since I haven't heard about them much lately.

Whoa one little article takes PMC into an all out free for all. Freedom of expression got shot in the face, and buried with my dog. Like the fact you stated your opposing view kind of respectively is nice, but the ABS needs no sympathy, considering they are the "best". Hopefully No one else jumps on the bandwagon, but considering how internet fame works.... ehhh it's gonna have to happen either way. Oh well, it's well written I give you that. Also, who doesn't love Antiqua, Extremely well written work no matter how one sided, (as is all opinions, so no judgement XD). diamond for freedom of opinion

They are indeed great people and even better builders, and it's a shame to see them go. That being said, I think that completely overkilling this matter with publicity and *cough*elitism*cough* is helping absolutely no one. And you can't imagine PMC without them? Have you seen this site lately? There is inspiration bursting out the seams, it's your job to find if and apply it to what you love doing. Leaving PMC and quitting Minecraft altogether would be absolutely crazy at this point. There isn't enough drama to wipe every inspirational figure from this site, nor will there ever be.

I just think it's a shame that it seems to have created so much drama. I come on pmc to have fun, share my projects for people to download and see how the community is doing.

There shouldn't be any need for any of these blog posts, we're just a group of builders who derp about and have a fun time playing minecraft, people seem to be acting like we're trying to take over the world or something. Makes me laugh.

ya i know what you mean, and i agree that there is no real need for blogs like this, but even then, i had created this blog in order to let you guys know, that you guys aren't alone on this matter. not to try and start anything further, but, like i just said, to let you guys know you're not alone on it.

and ya, it'd just be great for people to realize that you guys aren't here to make them feel bad about themselves, you're just trying to show your love for MC just like they are here for. but because of the matter of people just not realizing this that i feel like they're acting the way they are. it's just one of those things that i can't really understand why people do it in the first place.

This is just my OPINION - I am not jealous of them. I do think I'm not worthy.
But what I do think...

Is most of their club is a bit too..."braggy". When I see their avatars, I think, "Oh, how neat.". So when I look at their page, all I can say is bragging post has to brag.

"I'm in the ABS, so that means I'm a waaay better builder than anyone here. Look at my high level that I barely had to get. And, look at that oh-so-fantabulous structure! Everyone wants my subscription!"

I'm not saying they are all like this, but most of them are and it makes me annoyed.
