#i was never into the dsmp (dream is cringe)

[notthecity]

also on a fully unrelated note to the rest of my blog my favorite thing about the qsmp is quackity realizing just how unique the phenomenon he created is every two weeks. the eggs were just some cute almost pets to take care of, until everyone got emotionally attached and now the players would commit crimes against humanity for their minecraft children. bringing creators from all over the world together resulted on some unlikely friendships that never would have happened otherwise, think roier and cellbit, philza and forever, charlie and mariana, jaiden and roier, and so many more. and if the cinema night proves anything, it's that the fanbase is immensely creative, making everything from hilarious memes to an amazing 10-minute moving comic diving deeper into a character's lore with quality worthy of professional animation. like... godspeed you lil Mexican streamer, good on you for accidentally creating one of the coolest things I have seen on Twitch in recent years

My interest that was called cringe back in 2021 getting a sort of revival on a lot of social media platforms is not what I had on my 2024 bingo card but here we are

[starsasha]

Listen

Okay but why was Dsmp Me cooking in Character.ai

(TW: MENTION OF BRIGHTON BITER)

*Sylvester just sighed, shaking his head while looking up at him. He stared at him, to make sure Techno knew he was talking about them and talking to him.*

"Techno. I don't forgive you, I don't forgive Wilbur, I don't forgive Tommy and I don't forgive Phil. But I moved on, I don't care anymore about the past. I have better things, friends and people to care about."

*He stated, looking up for a moment before back at him.*"I won't ever forgive you, I will always hate all of you. And I don't want anything to do with any of you. But I will tell you this. *Move on*. The past is the past and I don't care about it."

[simplepotatofarmer]

if i'm honest, the mcyt fandom has the biggest case of 'except for the acceptable target' syndrome. they'll make posts about 'handling cringe' but make it clear the acceptable cringe is not dsmp fans or dream fans. they'll talk about growth and nuance and change but it's never applied to the people they hate. bullying is wrong, of course, unless you're 'driving out' the dream fans.

there is always an exception to any of these statements, there's always someone who you're allowed to treat poorly and i really hope one day the fandom can move away from that and be kinder.

[mcytblrconfessions]

i dont care how cringe or dead it is i will never leave the dsmp to rest and i will always want cc!dream to go trip on a rock and mysteriously loose all of his fortune because it falls into a charity somewhere and he has to stop streaming

[katiekatdragon27]

Being an artist is fun cuz I can draw whatever whenever as long as I have a group of people peerpressuring me /j

This all started as a joke talking about THANOS Muffin and sorta escalated/derailed into just sorta assigning OSC characters as a whole to the DSMP characters.

My gc and I had no real idea what we were doing, and this is honestly just for shits and giggles, lol. Everyone was assigned on dynamics and vibes instead of being logical. PLEASE DON'T BULLY ME FOR MY SPELLING, IT WAS SUPER LATE AT NIGHT WHEN I DID THIS.

The culprits: @always-just-down-the-street and @friiskuz (the main two), @mambari, and @glitchtypes

(Also keep in mind that I have never watched a full stream of the DSMP, I only watched certain content creators outside of the server. I barely had any say in this so don't blame me if you don't like iiiiitttt.)

Specifics under the cut:

Firey from BFDI is Tommyinnit. This was decided because of his main characterness, him being one of the most important characters in OSC history, and his mildly chaotic nature.

Leafy from BFDI is Tubbo. This was decided because of Firey being Tommy. Also, because I find the ship between Tubbo and Ranboo cute and this universe's equivalents really funny to pair up.

Taco from II is Wilbur Soot. This was decided because of the betrayal stuff, the violence and manipulation, and because we thought it would be fun.

Top Hat from TNM is Ranboo. This was decided because of vibes, trauma maybe(?), and some other stuff that my friend said. Also, something about hallucinating probably and just being in a general sense of not okayness.

Muffin from THANOS is BadBoyHalo. This was decided because this is litterally BBH. He is literally based on BBH clips from his videos cropped together to make a character. He started this whole thing.

"Blood" Diamond (although their built like Aquamarine) from BFDI (ABCDEFG) is Skeppy. This was decided because Skeppy's skin is literally a diamond. They're a "blood diamond" because of the egg arc, and they are probably a brother instead of sister since that short isn't really canon to anything. They're a blank slate, we can do what we want.

Oodle from AIB is Slimecicle. This was decided because of his omnipotent god powers (immortality) and just being a silly goofy guy in general. We considered Goo for a bit, but Goo's a little too young to have been around since the dawn of the server. Maybe before becoming Oodle he was Goo? Idk.

X from BFB is GerogeNotFound. This was decided because of who we made Dream XD. That's really it (they might have also had some weird romantic stuff happening in the stream before???).

Four from BFB is Dream XD. This was decided because of the revival aspect of Four's power and also their scary and overall powerful nature. The rainbows are because of Infinity being a rainbow in canon.

Call me cringe all you want; I can take the heat. If you want to feed into this hellhole, be my guest. Have a great day bros >:)

[proudfreakmetarusonikku]

i get why people assume the dsmp is like the height of degeneracy in the mcyt community considering it was a server created by some fucking infamous people, and i'm not here to tell you that they’re secretly good or some shit. i actually think criticism of certain CCs from mcyt and dsmp anti communities too gentle, if i'm fully honest- no one brings up dream's misogyny despite it being absolutely omnipresent, nor do they bring up his creepy behaviour towards minors on camera- sometimes they bring up the “16 is legal in the uk” clip, but that’s not even the worst thing he said To Tommy On Camera (that'd be making a rape joke about Tubbo’s thirteen year old sister and then poorly denying it by saying he could have been implying Anything when the joke literally was that bc she spawned in the bed of an adult server member he’d need to have a Talk with them, which literally makes no sense in any other context bc it’s a normal minecraft gameplay mechanic) let alone what he’s admitted to Off Camera (namely, making Tommy tell him he loved him or he'd destroy things his friend made, and then getting pissy when Tommy very understandably made jabs at how close to grooming it is, despite it being predatory behaviour regardless if it was for a laugh or not, and something thatd get him fired at best if he made those “jokes” towards an underage colleague in literally any other profession), no one brings up that sapnap signed up to kick, a website run by white supremacists that has been exposed Multiple Times for hosting sexual abuse material the staff cheered on, no one brings up how Multiple young streamers who were friends with Wilbur said he was extremely manipulative and downright cruel to younger streamers off camera or even, y’know, the fact he's been accused of physical abuse by multiple women, not just Shubble. y'all are too kind to them, that’s my hot take.

but my point is that there’s plenty of worse mcyt creators out there and there always has been. some of the people in the dsmp were the scum of the earth, i agree! emphasis on some- the dsmp was a server with over thirty members, some of whom were hurt by some of those scumbags and shouldn’t be lumped in with the racist assholes who mocked them or the adults that made inappropriate jokes towards them since they were fifteen, i think lumping everyone under that umbrella is part of why some of the awful shit the members do goes unnoticed. but also, like… that is nowhere close to some of the awful shit that other mcyters did. and i do Not say that to defend those fucking scumbags, I hate them with the rage of a thousand suns, i am literally so much of a hater I stole one of those guys OC solely bc I don’t think he even deserves to have Those. but there's so many dangerous people in the space both past and present and pretending people like skydoesminecraft and lionmaker and jinbop don’t exist only romanticises the past and leaves people, paradoxically, more vulnerable. everyone trusts their favourite YouTubers to not be like Those Freaks. until they’re the victims. it’s a way to feel safe by shitting on other people who were children primarily for not realising that adults were telling them predatory behaviour was okay- and i absolutely think that is what YouTubers like ninja (whos never mentioned in the dream thing btw despite his sexual harassment of tommy being what sparked that awful creepy comment) who “jokingly” flirt with minors are doing- instead of actually helping. i think children who had the idea that adults being inappropriate to them was normal are also victims- obviously not to the same extent as people directly hurt, but it’s gross to see mocking of what’s, again, primarily young children for trusting minecraft YouTubers that are #Cringe while ignoring other predators in the community, be they active or not. i grew up on the old generation of mcyters, and seeing people whitewash their crimes to shit on Literal Children for not realising a guy playing minecraft could be bad when they were right there watching child animal and woman abuser skydoesminecraft as kids and looking up to him is so disingenuous and frankly disgusting. fuck people who defend them as adults, same for skydoesminecraft apologists or whatever, but the conversation has gone so far from mocking predators to mocking children who were being told by those predators that they should be okay with sexual comments by adults, even if not directly. that’s so fucking backwards, man.

The DSMP bashing is one of the many reasons I don’t want to get into the QSMP. It’s fandom will not stop hating on it in order to hype QSMP up, I’m honestly worried the QSMP fandom will go downhill at some point because it’s desperately trying to pretend the QSMP is the perfect rp server and nothing like that icky cringe Dream SMP

I see so many people on there say they “escaped” the dsmp fandom and can’t look back on their old work. That’s just so so sad to me, that former fans can’t say they loved it too and maybe even still love it

I definately get that feeling, and I can see how it could easily result in the brushing off of any critisim of the QSMP, no matter how genuine or deserving it may be because of those people. The QSMP is it's own thing. It doesn't deserve to be ragged on for not comparing to the DSMP in a negative way, or the backhanded way people might complement it in order to put down the DSMP. The QSMP is not DSMP 2, it is a minecraft server with its own independent lore and characters and it's story doesn't appeal to everyone, including me. Those are all takes that can co-exist. Thankfully people on tumblr seem to get that for the most part. Just remember, you don't need to force yourself to 'move on' from the DSMP fandom. It doesn't have an expiration date, and you can enjoy BOTH in fact. In all fairness to the DSMP, it was never intended to be a lore server, but it became that anyways, and I find it beautiful in a way. Take care. <3

“Tommy.” He saw the tears in her mismatched eyes and shifted nervously, watching her touch his face and smile. “Tommy you’re here.” She laughed softly. “I wasn’t expecting to see you…if you know what I mean.” She was almost exactly like the Puffy at home, it was just her eyes. One was hazel, and the other was blue.

“Well…it's complicated, innit?” He gave her a lopsided smile, and she couldn’t help but gently squish his cheeks.

I tacked Q + BBH on this because there is no mention of them in the fic or dialogue for them. BBH is my favorite design tho hngh, Maybe its cuz i love demons so much.

I never really settled on Puffy's design, i hope you like it tho!

I’m posting the art i made for my retired (incomplete) fic AHTFF, since most people agreed that i should post it. it’s a 70k+ 22 ch fic centered on SBI/Fantasy/Found Family, Timeline hopping, and sort of post-exile. Things get absurdly sweet in parts (though there is still a ton of drama and angst) so fair warning the cringe level might be a bit high for you.

Don’t follow me for DSMP content, i’m not producing art for it. I’m posting what i have, then it will be back to MDZS!

Hey, Guys, Gals, Demons, Ghouls and Multi-Fandom Fiends!

This isn't a theory as a matter-of-fact it's going to be long but I need to get this out there. So, I have been on this decision for the past week. And here it is. So, we all know what's been going on with the whole William "Wilbur Soot" Gold situation that's been all over YouTube, Twitter, and just about any other Social Media Platform out there. I'm 100% behind Shelby/Shubble. I think she was very brave in coming out against what she experienced so, please go show her some support.

With that said, I know many people on here have either made the decision to either,

A) Orphaned or Delete their FanFics that have c!Wilbur Soot in them. If have decided to do that, your decision is valid and I fully respect your decision.

B) Have decided to stop writing anything with c!Wilbur Soot in them. If you have decided to do that, your decision is valid and I fully respect your decision.

C) Have decided to continue to write c!Wilbur Soot because it was never about the Content Creators, but the Characters that we, the fans, have created ourselves. If you have decided to do that, your decision is valid and I fully respect your decision.

So, with that said, I'm sure many people have been wondering about what I'm going to do. Here's my decision on this.

What I'm going to do:

I'm going to continue to write. Tommy Innit's Secret Clinic is still going to be written. As selfish as this is going to sound, it was never about the Content Creator William "Wilbur Soot" Gold who owns the YouTube/Twitch Channel. But it was always, always, always, about the character he played. I love c!Wilbur Soot from the Earth SMP, Dream SMP, and Origins SMP. I even love the character he plays in Sorry Boys. And that's the Character I will be writing!

I know when I first joined the DSMP, it was already starting to go downhill. By that time, Covid was over, and the "Over Night Success" of the DSMP was over for a lot of fans. To the point, if you were still a fan of the DSMP during the Prison Arc and beyond then you were in the "So 5 Minutes Ago"/Cringe Territory. I also know that serval people have stopped writing, and got out of the DSMP/MCYT Community when Technoblade passed away. I can't blame them since many fans started watching the DSMP b/c of Techno and why bother watching something if the reason you even started is no longer there. I fully respect everyone's decision on that. And I know now that so many people will be leaving b/c of this being the "Last Nail in the Coffin" for a lot of people. Again I fully respect your decision if you decide to never write c!Wilbur Soot or just straight leave the Fandom entirely.

But I'm not. I'm not leaving. c!Wilbur Soot belongs to us fans and yes, this is 100% selfish of me, but I'll be damned if I let someone take away something that I find so much joy in doing! I've been writing FanFicion for the last 30 years and have been posting for the last 20 years.

I've been in many different fandoms and yes, many of them have had pretty toxic gatekeeping fans. But for once with the DSMP, I actually felt well safe for my writing. I didn't have to worry about if I was writing the Character right or not.

So, with that said, Tommy Innit's Secret Clinic is still underway! I have a few more chapters already written but it's going to be a major story and for once, I'm fucking motivated to finish this! For once, I'm not four to five chapters in and can't seem to figure out what to write b/c I'm so stuck on what others kept telling me how to write certain characters. But with this, no one's doing that. I want to write to these Characters how I want to write them!

I am NOT supporting the Content Creator! This has always been about the Characters. As far as I'm concerned, William "Wilbur Soot" Gold can go step on a pile of Legos for all I care!

However, with Tommy Innit's Secret Clinic, it's going to be until Summer that I will be able to fully start to update again. Right now, I think I'm just going to concentrate on School since my class started a month ago. And I might be focusing on other Writing/Art Projects until then.

So, when Summer hits, expect to see updates for Tommy Innit's Secret Clinic! Until then, Guys, Gals, Demons, Ghouls and Multi-Fandom Fiends! I'll see you later! HAPPY CREATING!

dsmp characters as valo mains

my credentials are im iron 3 and watch a shit ton of foolish and etoiles valo streams :) based on fighting styles mostly cause i. love thinking about their fighting styles

ctommy - gekko creatures! so many creatures! also i feel like he would want the spike every round and be the first to peak every corner.

ctubbo - cypher very sneaky. teammates just give him half of the map to hold by himself. always by himself despite not having any offensive util. still carries every game best agent i love you!!!

cranboo - phoenix self-sufficient kit, also able to provide cover for teammates. still manages to bottom frag every game.

cwilbur - killjoy ho16 is some shit only a killjoy main would pull. setting up some cringe lineups and playing offsite so you don't actually have to shoot your gun. also the ult is clearing an area of the map without killing anyone which is basically plan bomb.

cquackity - brimstone sorry cq but im giving you brim cause ive never known a brim main that was good at the game. completely dogshit always all they do is sit in corners with a shotgun. just play support and whiff your ult like you're supposed to.

cdream - chamber controversial but like. its an agent dependent on accuracy and playing cringe and being toxic. got a massive nerf and is now unplayable.

cpunz - sage cpunz is literally dreams pocket sage. ult is a resurrection. both a support character and an offensive character.

ctechno - raze kaboom i mean. what do you want me to say. high damage good movement. requires you to be good at the game. teammates take him for granted and enemies hate his ass.

cphil - sova dogshit agent with horrible util but if you're in a 1-v-1 with him you are losing. snipes you clear across the map and then all his teammates come and fuck your shit. super non toxic which just makes you hate him more.

cniki - skye generally regarded as support character until they have to clutch a 1-v-5 because their teammates all suck and then they clutch the fuck out of it. this is my main hi niki nihachu !!!

cschlatt - reyna weird pick but reyna doesnt really have any abilities if you arent killing people but if you are its super strong. very imbalanced its either you are dying first every round or hitting an ace.

csapnap - omen every time i see someone be really good at omen i wonder why they arent playing a good agent instead. which reminds me of csap. pls just play yoru or something

csam - deadlock cause prison warden get it??? hahah. deadlocks use all their abilities on one person and still they end up killing her cause shes a terrible agent. L

cponk - breach in theory super strong but in practice i always wish i just had like. anyone else.

cjack manifold - KAY/O i almost forgot you just like i always forget KAY/O exists. even when theres a kay/o on my team i forget about it. also robot hc.

cslime - viper slime goop. falls apart whenever anyone actually attacks them but crucial for the team.

this is canon i asked the dream smp discord server and they all sent me this. i hope i didnt forget anyone im very tired

[muttship]

u being a visible dsmp selfshipper is making me remember my dsmp selfships and Heavily debate getting back into it/them ;v;

(specifically i used to selfship w c!dream and c!ranboo in various ways - never quite settled on specifics lol)

I am cringe but I am free

you should totally get back into it!! my perfect tumblr would be flooded with dsmp/mcyt selfshippers, and if I can convince anyone to be public with their mcyt selfships or start/go back to being an mcyt selfshipper, i’d be so glad :]

[draconixiaa]

i dont think i'll ever look back upon the dsmp and call it cringe. i'm still proud of being there, and i hope that fact will never change. even if it's been a few years, and I still feel like it's the one thing that has had the most impact on my life. so many of my irls do hate on it but idc:

from the moral lessons taught to the sheer joy and anger and sadness... i think it filled me up with so much energy and life during the pandemic. it's pushed me to grow as a writer, to explore creative hobbies, and my time online during those years has taught me a lot about who i want myself to be. i was able to immerse myself the lgbtq+ perspective of the online left wing while in real life, i lived under a right-ring household. it broadened my perspective, showed me the lives of people around the world, and taught me open-mindedness and how to keep my own values despite it all.

so some part of me is still stuck in 2020. as if 2016 is still only four years ago instead of eight, as i pull up fruitberries' streams for a bit of that parkour pvp mcchamps nostalgia (hes streaming rn go watch :)))))) but then i see tubbo dj'ing and foolish playing val with all sorts of different streamers and punz doing his own lil thing and tommy making his talk shows and i think ranboo's become some kind of variety streamer (unfollowed him some time ago) and ponk's gone offline and niki's become goth and fundy making his weird coding vids and purpled on his whatever minecraft event he's playing and eret making insane real life connections and dream creating an insane new project...

in some ways, i've moved on as well. ive started to explore other interests like coding, focusing on my studies and schoolwork instead of fleeting things like livestreams, played more valorant instead of minecraft... (im still iron 3 though)

but i still think it's amazing how much i treasure my dsmp days. it was truly a time to live in..!

haha thanks for reading my cringe

(eepy me after watching tommy's video yesterday and seeing all the videos commenting on the dsmp as a thing of the past (is it cringe? was it bad?) and thinking a bit retrospectively as i slowly... fall..... asleep......)

[dream-critical]

haiii :) okay so this is a bit off-topic for the present discourse but i just discovered this account and wanted to anon air some thoughts ive been having about This Fuckin Guy. its all probably been said before in some capacity, but yeah (tws for grooming, SA allusion) 

the way dream has taken advantage of his fame is genuinely so fascinating. re: dnf, rpf of internet creators is obviously not a new thing online (also wrt lack of boundaries between a fan community and creator) but i’ve never seen a creator encourage their own sexualization the way he has. i used to think it was hysterical the way he publicly liked fanart of himself which clearly played into his conceit of being hyper-masculinized beside a hyper-feminized george. but again, after the grooming allegations dropped, it was hard not to see this behaviour in an even more sinister light than just that he’s an egotist who’s making money off of marketing his own fetishization. like it reminded me that behind all that fanart and fanfic were mostly young girls (a fact which is very Focal in the discourse), so what are the chances that played into his “enjoyment” of it. 

desensitizing a victim to sexual contact is a major grooming tactic. putting it this way, he was basically cultivating a massive following of young (most underage) girls, “mass-groomed” to view him sexually and thereby predicate inappropriate sexual exchanges on an individual level as we saw him do on snapchat. with the way he’s infantilized by fans (but also by antis who, reasonably, call him out as a juvenile idiot) its easy to miss how this man’s career seems engineered to be a tremendous abuse of power against vulnerable young people. and its crazy because I feel like its on a level and in a medium which is heretofore unexplored; unbreached by law or comprehensive understandings of what “violence” and “abuse” can entail when it takes place in online communities such as this.  

needless to say, as an ex-dsmp fan, im still transfixed by the goings-on of the community. i wish outsiders didn’t so often discredit the situation as “mcyt cringe” or trivial discourse among teenage stans who “deserve it” for falling in with this shitty guy. i feel like we’re watching a massive group be Actively Victimized, but its getting caught up in vitriolic alliances on the discourse front. like gen q, is it more constructive to indict dnf fangirls as individual perverts, or to indict the man at the centre of the cult of personality which enabled this behaviour to set the stage for his abuse/manipulation/etc.? 

anyway. hope this qsmp situation finally fuckin shoots his career in the foot cause i’m getting tired of praying on his downfall. 

(and thanks for running this blog. it must be draining, hope you’re taking care of yourself :) )

im a veteran follower of dream discourse and i can honestly say every single time something big happens everyone think this will be the end of his career. surely this has got to be the breaking point.

but it never is. and maybe it never will be. for the exact reasons he is famous, his fanbase. like you said, though i wouldn’t say groom is necessarily the word, dream built his fanbase to be the way it is, loyal and unquestioning of him. as long as he has a substantial fanbase who will defend and follow him no matter what, it doesn’t matter what he does, there will never be a downfall because he’d repeatedly shot himself in the foot and then have his army of professional dick riders to heal it.

at this point, it would be more likely that dream eventually fade out. his fanbase will grow up, get older, more responsibilities, and eventually they’ll forget about him. and there won’t be a generation to follow them because dream’s content would start to become irrelevant to the soon-to-be teenagers who are his main demographics. in 1 to 2 years time, he’ll be a used to be big-shot mcytber who now averages 200k views per video and his content would have become so generalised that you wouldn’t be able to recognise him and neiltheminecraftgamer or some other mediocre typical gaming channel specifically targeting kids.
