I'm Literally Banned from Minecraft 😡

F

or a few years, I've been a pretty big fan of Microsoft, since they are the company behind my favorite operating system (Windows) and my favorite video game (Minecraft). But after what happened today I no longer think of them so highly. The reason, as you can see in both the post's title and the image, is because I was literally banned from Minecraft multiplayer, and the marketplace, and even from changing my character skin. Minecraft is on the road to becoming as bad as Roblox.

I'll just say it right now: Microsoft, at least whoever banned me, sucks.

Thankfully my ban only lasts 2 days, so it won't be long until I can continue playing like usual and I won't need to worry about figuring out how to evade the ban. And I was only banned from multiplayer and marketplace content so I will still be able to build houses and play the game on my own. But I am NOT playing Java Edition until the time is up, since as you can see above, you must click the "Acknowledge" button to continue playing, which is essentially admitting defeat which I am not doing. I'll stick to Bedrock Edition the next few days.

And clicking the link does nothing helpful either, it just takes me to a webpage that explains how to report a player.

You can see in the screenshot that I was banned for "abusive language used in a directed, harmful manner." Define "abusive" please, Microsoft.

A few days before the ban, I was playing Hide and Seek on the Hive. If you've ever played that game mode before, you'll know that players can vote for which map they want to play on. Sometimes the map I voted for didn't win, so I would jokingly type in the chat that the voting is rigged. That's the only thing I can think of, since I never am intentionally rude in the chat. But how is it abusive? And even if I was serious, making a remark about the voting being rigged is not abusive in any way.

I even read through the entire Minecraft community standards, EULA, code of conduct, and ToS, and there are no rules in any of those documents that I would have broken by joking about the map voting being rigged.

However, once again, it isn't the end of the world, since I was only banned for 2 days. But if I ever do get banned permanently, I'd probably start a lawsuit against Microsoft as soon as I turn 21. And I'd use the money to buy an alt account to start playing Minecraft again. Let's hope that never happens though.

But anyways, that's all I had. Please share this post wherever possible to help raise awareness of Minecraft's huge problem. And whatever you do, don't EVER joke about Hive Hide and Seek's map voting being rigged.

My Biggest Pet Peeve

  HOW DOES ANYBODY SEE A PC IN THIS??? H ello readers. In today's post, I will be talking about something that has been bothering me for months. You can probably tell what it is by the image and caption above. I will get straight to the point without any further ado. I watch a lot of Minecraft YouTube videos, often where the content creator will use extremely high-quality graphics or shaders in Minecraft. When they do this, the game will often lag (what I mean is that the frames per second drop down to less than 20), and they will joke by saying that their "PC is about to explode". However, sometimes, they will show a clip of what they are calling a PC, but obviously is not: that weird box that you see in the image above. How can somebody even label that as a PC? It is beyond words how unintelligent it is to call an item a PC when it clearly isn't. Take a good look at the item in the image. You can clearly see that it has no screen, so even if it somehow could process...

  Image source: wallpapers.com B ack in May, I started working on a project called the Stellar Mesh, which aims to establish interplanetary communication and open up the possibilities for extraterrestrial VPNs. And just today, I finished working on the first release, and I published it on GitHub! The first release covers the Sun, the Moon, Venus, Earth, Mars, and the Asteroid Belt. Really, the Stellar Mesh project will never be completely finished, as there are trillions of planets in the universe. However, I still think it will be a valuable tool for space exploration in the future. The Stellar Mesh project is released under the Unlicense, meaning it's in the public domain, so you can basically do anything you want to with it. Anyway, I just wanted to write this post to tell you about the project's first release. Check it out  here ! --ILikeSlugs
