Everyone has things that annoy them. You would have to be perfect to have nothing annoy you, and since no one's perfect, well yeah. So today I'm going to be talking about things that annoy me. Also, remember that some of these things only annoy me, but if they annoy you then tell me in the comments so that I know I'm not alone. Alright, let's get started!



Destructive People

I don't get why some people seem to just enjoy blowing things up. I know I had one friend who said that he rebuilt one of his Minecraft creations twelve times because he kept blowing it up. I mean seriously! Why would you spend so much work building something just to blow it up! What are you even doing, training to be terrorists that you need to blow things up! Ok, maybe that was a bit dramatic, but I don't understand why you find destruction so fun. By the way, the same friend who said he blew up his creations wanted me to blow up my creations, because he thought that would be "fun".


Paying for builds

Is it just me, or is it annoying that people are now demanding money to build for others. Is it that hard to make a hub that you need to ask for payment? Do people not find building fun enough that they would build someone a hub just because they find it fun? Yes, sometimes a lot of work is put in, but I still think people should build because it's fun, not because they're getting money for it. I really don't have much else to say about that.


People who have bad update suggestions

I used to be on MinecraftForums a lot, and specifically in the suggestion section. And boy, are there a lot of bad suggestions there. One guy was saying that they should buff creepers to be twice as strong, and add super creepers that could fly and go through walls. And on the app store, there were also a lot of bad suggestions in the reviews for Minecraft PE. One of them said that there should be bouncy clouds, and another said that there should be rockets so that you could go to the moon.

And here is the one to top them all. Someone on MCForums suggested that, drum roll please... Minecraft and Roblox should merge! Right off the bat I knew that this was a horrible suggestion, and I told that to the guy who made the post. I mean seriously, you'd think people would be smart enough to realize that some of these ideas are bad, or just don't fit into Minecraft. Yet they seem to think that these ideas are amazing. For example, the person who suggested op creepers saying to like the post so that Mojang could see it.



Non-Minecraft blogs on PMC

Don't get mad straight away, just hear me out on this one. PMC is a Minecraft website, right? Well then how come when I go looking for blogs about Minecraft, instead I find a bunch of art, stories, and poems, and almost none of them Minecraft-related. I'm not saying that they're low quality or bad, I'm just saying I don't think they belong on PMC. I also feel that they crowd out other blogs that are Minecraft related, as if I look at the recently updated blogs in the home page, two or three out of six are always art blogs.

Honestly if I had made PMC I would've said that only Minecraft or site-related blogs should be allowed, or maybe only site, Minecraft, and gaming related blogs (The blogs that have to do with other games don't bother me, since everyone on PMC plays video games). But, since I didn't make PMC, and most people seem to enjoy all the art, stories, and poems, I guess I'll just have to live with it.

Just to be clear, the main reason I don't like them is because they're not minecraft-related, if they were then I'd be fine with them.


People who constantly complain about 1.9 and the war about it on the PMC Forum

Why do people still complain about this! It's been over a year and people are still complaining! There was one guy on MCForums who actually made a suggestion thread saying that 1.9 combat changes should be removed. And then there's the "Vanilla-Only Cult vs. Order of 1.7" threads on PMC. Basically if you haven't noticed, for a while if anyone posted a thread that had anything to do with 1.7 or modding in newer versions, either someone says that 1.9 sucked and Avrona (one and only member of the Vanilla Only Cult) responds that 1.9 was great, or it's the other way around and avrona says he doesn't use 1.7 or some version because he likes 1.9+ better, and the Order of the 1.7 community (mainly Lachie1770) starts telling him that 1.9 ruined combat.

And then it quickly escalates into a flame war between avrona and Lachie, plus the people who don't like avrona's view, until a mod comes and shuts it down. Yeah, I bet if I started a thread about 1.7 then this would happen, but I don't want to start a flame war, so instead here are the links to two of these if you want to see. Though lately I haven't been seeing any of these flame wars, so I hope it's all over.

Also, Avrona and Lachie1770 , sorry for calling you out, but you need to stop being so defensive.



That's all I have for now, I might make a second part, though it's not likely. Please diamond if you enjoyed this blog, and have a great day!

I understand your point about blogs on PMC that are not related to Minecraft. Personally I think that there is a place for things that are not related to the fandom (Minecraft in this case) on a fansite/fan fourm. Although that doesn't mean that I'm okay with 1/4 of the entire site being taken over by stuff that's not related to Minecraft.

Something that annoys me in general are people (or better called bots) who advertise their stuff on the site. It simply doesn't belong here, and it doesn't make sense.

Sooo, I use 1.7 the most out of any version...
Not to argue with you, but I didn't like 1.9.that much...
Except for the elytra!

I agree with the whole Forums thing. Avrona constantly deletes comments and blocks people who don't agree with his ridiculous views of 1.9 being superior to every other version (it's alright, imo, but I got bored rather quickly after my friends and I beat the Dragon; 1.12 looks very nice, so I'm excited for that), and for simply suggesting he use plugins to do something he wants to do with command blocks (99.9% of the time he turns the thread into a flame war and gets his threads locked).

I feel like you're a little harsh on the Blogs section, though. Some people only have access to this site to release their stories and such, since it's a bigger community that will give better feedback than other sites.

As for the paying for builds thing, let me explain this. If you are a server owner, and you ask a well-known builder/build team to build something like a server hub for you, that's like asking fora commission art piece on DeviantArt. Commissions cost money, and they want to ensure that their talents aren't being wasted on people who will just steal their work and claim it as their own.

Thanks for your explanation about the builds, it actually did change my view on the thing, because I never actually thought about people stealing work.

1.9 is awesome I don't get what all the fuss is about. Sure, there's delayed attacking but still, you can't hate on the version that added Elytras!! xD

I can see why people would hate it, as for me it was hard to adjust to the new style of combat, but I was able to get used to it. But for people who did a lot more pvp it was probably just really hard and frustrating.

I love elytras!
I do NOT like the new attack system, I think there should be a gamerule for it!
The new attack system makes minecraft less "minecraft"...
Anyways, I can just install a mod to make the elytra for 1.7!

No offence, but why do people always forget 1.8? People always say it's 1.7 straight into 1.9 when talking about mods. But there ARE mods for 1.8!! And... my bird pooped on my keyboard while writing this reply. Wow. xD
