What makes me a Minecrafter?

Well, to answer that we'd have to go to the beginning, about 6 years ago.
That is, to before I was a Minecrafter.

I actually used to say that this was a bad game. That was when I was about 10 though, and as such, I was still attempting to fit with the crowd, to be popular, and to do that I said that it was bad.

And then, a few months later, I found it in my downloaded games folder on the Xbox 360. A thought of 'Eh, why not?' went through my skull, and I found myself playing what, if I remember correctly, equated to the Beta 1.5 version of the PC Minecraft. I remember walking through the world with a randomly generated seed and thinking, 'yup, I knew it, it's bad'.

Of course, this was simply because of the graphics the game gave me, however, as I continued playing (and dying a Dark Souls number of times) I found myself starting to enjoy the game. I remember going from Easy to Peaceful and believing a squid to be some kind of Peaceful mode Spider. I feel like an idiot now for thinking that, however at the time, I was such a noob, that that was the only logical explanation.

A few days later, I found myself alongside my eldest brother using a duplication glitch to fill a world (since the world was not infinite at the time) with all kinds of buildings, minigames (which hardly ever worked), and methods of gaining achievements. Days upon days were spent looking for materials, slaying monsters and building houses.

As with any game though, he drifted onto other games and I was left to play on my own.

Then I discovered the PC version from my other brother.

It was as if an entirely new game had been presented to me. And, to be honest, that was what had happened.

The current update was, I believe, 1.3.2. So, I was introduced to sprinting, a different type of regen, and a whole wealth of other new things like temples and the end. I became obsessed over it and this was even before I came across servers (or had my own account, I'd pilfered my brother's to use).

It was the birthday after that I received my own account, and Creation467 was born after much debate over the name.

It was then that I began my journey into the online section of MC.

I started off playing on minigame servers, hopping from server to server to find one that fitted me. I eventually found it. A, at the time, relatively small server called muttsworld. For the 3 years I spent there, I found friends, built shoddy (but progressively better) builds, andsimply messed about without a care in the world.

And then I got banned, like half the other people on there.

And back to server hopping I was, waiting to find the one server that was right for me. I found one, became staff on it, then left when reasons.

And that's basically it, up to this point. I would go into more detail, however, I feel tired now, feel like I've rambled a bit, and have lost my flow.

If you can guess where said flow was lost, you get a virtual cookie.
