they took a game you could install and do anything you want with and play multiplayer directly on each other's computers, to another live service you can get banned from. Microsoft's C-level executives should be nailed to a fucking cross.
That's only the case for bedrock edition. For Java you can at least do singleplayer until the ban expires, and even then, you'd need to go out of your way to get banned in the first place.
It was always weird that M$ was supporting a game for both Mac and Linux. I don't like the clickbait-y way this guy presents his points but they are definitely legitimate.
I don't think I've ever said this publically but I've always believed this: If Minecraft didn't exist, modding as a whole would already be dead.
I wish. They are even worse and I've heard they ban for the stupidest of reasons. You can't play Minecraft without some special mods to prevent from being reported anymore. The whole system is stupid and horribly implemented. I've even heard there was an issue where being banned would prevent you from playing singleplayer too at one point, but I'm unsure if that's true or not.
IIRC you can only get banned from singleplayer on bedrock, java won't ban you from singleplayer but the chat moderation applies to Singleplayer for some reason.
No, you can be banned for that, but that can be easily mitigated by not saying it or playing in a server where people are cool with slur slinging.
What kind of reasons? In the minecraft subreddit, some of the users posted their "ban" actually faked theirs in order to perpetuate the outrage (this being proven by the some users pointing out the ban times not being possible and the OPs refusing to further elaborate on what they were banned for).
so it can be mitigated by going out of my way and not having fun. gotcha.
The new system is different because im pretty sure you get global banned from multiplayer, the same way you would on any other game, not just from one server. That is what i believe to be the case but i dont know what theyve changed since the first implementation so please correct me if wrong.
Not really, with the amount of young kids, fags, troons, mentally ill individuals dominating multiplayer servers now you can and will get reported for just about anything, where a bot likely runs some sort of sentiment check on your previous chats and bans you if youve said anything considered even slightly offensive (i could have just combined the latter 3 demographics but i didnt to make my argument look stronger)
If you get banned via mojang you are fully banned from the server browser and realms, you can't access online at all, thats one of my biggest issues with it is that its a service wide ban.
If your only real way of having fun in this block game is shoot slurs than I don't know to tell you. Also, didn't I just say you could join servers where the players are cool with it?
The global ban is still the same, as far as I know, but the system has been tweaked to make getting banned in the first place difficult (one example being that general swearing isn't a bannable offense anymore).
That's not how the system works. Mojang have a moderation team that reads the reports made, check for the context and notice if anyone is trying to exploit the system.
It was accepted because, when it was announced initially, people made it seem like the sky was going to fall (which was understandable at the time, tbf). Now that it's here and nothing of note has occurred since, most people stopped caring.
If the world was filled with more autists like Notch it would be a kinder place.
a big part of growing up for me was having to find out how the fuck port forwarding works just so i could host a minecraft server for me and my friends at the time. while i sucked ass at it, i had enough motivation and assistance to get it done and felt super proud of myself for achieving that.Installing the Planes Mod onto me and my friend's server over a decade ago felt like a real achievement, and although it didn't inspire me to become a programmer or anything, it taught me how cool computers are and how there's real value in learning to operate them properly. It's autistic as fuck to admit but I wouldn't be 1/100th as computer literate if it wasn't for the time I spent modding as a child. I know moving files in and out of %appdata% isn't very complicated but most kids and teenagers these days would have an aneurysm trying to figure that shit out.
No one ever makes cool things for kids anymore. Everything kid related is designed to turn them into a fag and steal their parent's money, and the older I get the more I appreciate Minecraft for being completely devoid of all that bullshit. Minecraft was awesome to play with as a kid and I'm thankful to Markus Persson for giving me those tools
Man, I take my tech spergery for granted. I basically grew up on computers, never owned a console, and I remember that in 2011, when I managed to install pirated Minecraft Beta 1.3_01 I basically instantly went into modding. Though I think at that point I was already well versed in file managing, but still, me growing up first on a Windows 98 FE laptop, then on a Windows XP PC probably taught me a lot by just fucking around. I still have my very first Minecraft world and many of those old Beta mods because of how that WinXP PC had a 20GB HDD and I had to constantly move things onto pendrives because I refused to delete shit, which is still a habit that I have today.
It wouldn't surprise me for a second if they think the only pushback they ever get is from transphobes, because seriously, this just screams "GET OUT GET OUT GET OUT REEEEEEEE" after the amount of shit the community has given them over recent decisions and the fact that certain autists can make better content in a week.
I just built a server, if I hosted a Kiwi Farms Minecraft Server would there be any interest from the farms in joining it?
