Introduction.
Hello all, have you missed me? What? You didn't? Well, that's too bad. I'm sorry I haven't posted anything in a while, I've been busy with my finals, my travels, and studying for my finals. I've also been searching for something to write about. And while I'm browsing PMC one day, something hits me.
We aren't cooperating with each other! Honestly, it's true. PMC is a community of real people, connected throughout the internet, who all share a love of the game of MineCraft. And in every functioning community, the cooperation of people taking part in that community counts a lot for the quality of the community.
But on PMC, we aren't working together. It's as if we're competing. Some of us, frankly, just out of insecurity, and desire to be noticed, and some of us just to be popular. Basically, I think it's okay to have friendly competitions. But I don't think it's okay to say nasty things about people, and just be a troll in general.
So I'm going to cover these issues in a blog, and maybe, it will make the issue just a teency weency little bit better.
The Popularity Race.
Okay, don't deny it. There are really popular members.... and then there aren't popular members. But these popular members usually are people with a lot of subscribers, and views, and diamonds, etc. But once these people get really popular, they can't get enough of the popularity.So they start to compete with other popular members, they say bad things about them, they post more and more, trying to get more popular than the other person. And it just turns into hate, and a fight when it could have been joy and a friendship. Worst of all, when someone new comes in, who's gaining popularity for their work, these people see them as just another problem. So they try to get rid of them. They do the same awful things they do to the other members, and sometimes even try to get these people's posts
removed.
Notice: This is actually quite funny... I was writing this, and my computer crashed. Somehow, this got auto-posted to PMC before I was done with this, so once I get around to it, there will be more content in a future update! There's a lot more I want to say - so stay tuned!

Neah, joking... I was wondering, what would happen if we would work togheter... o_o
Great things, young one, great things...
Irl I'm isolated from pretty much everyone
I hate my life...
I think everybody in PMC should see this blog :0
Somebody in a server liked one of my redstone creations so he told me "that's cool, post it in PMC, people will love it".
Then I joined PMC and posted it (The vote counter) - I don't know what's about you but for me 15 diamonds it's a lot.
Then I thought about posting a bunch of other redstone creations to become more polular, But after a while I decided I don't want to be popular - because creating new redstone devices for rating is NOT FUN. so I didn't post anything new for a while and just played in a server with my friends. After that I started posting redstone devices again but not for the rating - just for the very few people that it really helps them, for helping them make even better redstone devices and giving people cool ideas for adventure maps - or just to help them success in their survival game.
Now when I see my post with even less than 100 views but I see one comment with a little thankyou it makes me happy!
