…also for the record if you hear me say “yeah use [x thing] instead of curseforge’s launcher” or hear people complaining about curseforge as a company, that’s NOT the same thing as forge, the mod loader. or neoforge, which I think a lot of forge projects are slowly switching to? that’s a different thing. because this is the modded minecraft community that ALSO has a pretty large and famous community split, being the forge/fabric split, and there’s ALSO a load of different reasons and community drama behind it, although that’s more typical open-source project drama than curseforge/modrinth, which is less “two projects with different philosophies” type developer drama and more “the open source developers got tetchy about a for-profit company not responding to their needs” drama (BROADLY. I’M NOT IN THESE COMMUNITIES ENOUGH TO ACTUALLY SUMMARIZE THE MANY THINGS THAT ARE GOING ON BEHIND THE SCENES HERE. I AM JUST TAXONOMIZING BASED ON THE TYPICAL FLAVORS OF PROGRAMMER DRAMA.)

so like. yeah forge and curseforge are two different things, the modded minecraft community loves its “someone should make a standard to unify all the standards” “we now have three standards.” type dramas, please use a launcher that isn’t the curseforge launcher so you don’t have to have ads served to you every time you play minecraft.

bonus points though: one of the big elements of the curseforge/modrinth split is that sodium is only on modrinth (due to security concerns with curseforge allowing mods and packs of extremely similar names to sodium’s and refusing to take moderator action on that, if I remember right?). sodium is the recommendation you’ll normally get given if you want a performance mod for fabric instead of forge. there are multiple mods to put in addition to sodium to make it have optifine’s features and rampant debate as to which is better if you’re like, just playing vanilla (I’m on team sodium/rubidium for the record). there are also mods to port sodium to forge, bringing us full circle. this is because programmers never change,

my biggest problem is that all the projects that I'm the proudest of are things that I probably cant put on a resume

Ok so I don’t know anything about Touhou, right. Like I usually recognize when a character is Probably From Touhou, because they tend to look a certain way, but the only character I can actually recognize and name is Cirno just because she used to pop up frequently in Marx’s tags when I was a child first learning how to look for Kirby fanart on Pixiv dot com and I was really mad about it.

Anyways the other thing I know about Touhou, I guess, or at least tangentially? Is the genre of youtube videos that usually have “Yukkuri” in their title and are narrated with TTS voices that I guess are supposed to represent specific Touhou characters. Sometimes they’re in the thumbnail but I don’t know who they are because they’re not Cirno. I’ve never been very fond of the TTS voices because they’re hard to parse so I’ve never really interacted much with these videos. Until now.

Bc the YouTuber doing these Minecraft lets plays that I’ve been hooked on does them in this style. And it’s been some kind of experience I guess trying to parse which references are supposed to be about the Touhou Lore and what’s actually referencing information from this specific youtuber’s Greater Minecraft Fiction. There are three TTS voices in these series and I don’t know who any of them are supposed to be. I’ve managed to figure out, after going back to their very first season and watching probably close to 20 hours of their Minecraft videos, that when they call the Player Character “President” that’s Minecraft Lore and not Touhou Lore. One time one of them made a reference to one of them being a vampire, which seems to be Touhou Lore because there were never any vampires in their Minecraft series. I don’t Fucking Know.

Cannot stress enough I also just don’t know which characters these are anyways so I can’t even like look it up even if I wanted to. I saw a tumblr post about Touhou the other day mentioning a “Marisa”. I recognize this name. I heard one of the TTS voices say it, like, maybe twice across all ~20 hours of Minecraft videos. They don’t ever fucking say each other’s names. Who the fuck are they. It doesn’t even matter anyways, because I don’t really care about Touhou. This youtuber’s editing and commentating style has managed to utterly captivate my finicky attention span, and that’s wonderful. I’m having a great time. When is the next video dropping

Fun news! My mod just got its first ever contribution from someone other than me! Specifically, a Simplified Chinese translation that seems pretty complete! They even translated the (rather long) guide book!!

I'm really excited about this. The idea someone would like my thing enough to add onto it through their own effort is awesome.

... So this is why people make FOSS.

[mcsm-confessions]

Doing this on anonymous because I will be attacked.

The amount of adults in this famdom attacking minors over opinions is INSANE. Me, and another have suffered ruthless hate from these people and no one has pointed or called them out except ONE. It's so annoying and keep in mind, we're MINORS. I've seriously been mentally drained from Tumblr but I love interacting with people on it. This is not targeted to one person, a BUNCH of people have been doing it and it's irritating. LEAVE US ALONE!

Sorry if this against the rules/gen

~~~

Honestly, this is some well-deserved criticism, and it isn't against the rules. You are not purposefully inciting drama, you're standing up for yourself, Anon. I'm proud of you for speaking up about the problem. It sucks how awful people can be.

As I have mentioned a few times now, it is not okay to attack people over their opinions on things like this. It is alright to disagree. It is alright to civilly discuss your opinions on things. It is an even better idea to simply ignore people.

Many headcanons and ships that are confessed on my blog are ones that I disagree with. Some I downright dislike. However, so long as it follows the rules that I set for this page, it still gets posted. Because at the end of the day, it is night, and we all like the same game, and we are all people. I respect them as a fellow human being. They have as much a right to express their opinions as I do.

MCSM is rated for ages 10 and older. Of course there will be minors in the fandom. There is no need to beef with children (or anyone, for that matter) over their opinions on characters in a game about cube people learning the power of friendship.

It costs nothing to scroll past the headcanons you disagree with. You can even block the tag or even the person who posted it if you want to. But don't start insulting each other over it.

I HATE elementalcraft, what do you mean you have your own set of energy and machines and pipes but THE ITEMS AND INFRASTRUCTURE TO AUTOMATE IT ALL ARE NEEDLESSLY TEDIOUS TO MAKE

(featuring several times where i got stuck in the chicken pit [this still happens frequently], plus @aperture-science-sys and the bear that HATES me)

Hey, watch this! *makes a (relatively) HD Netherite Block in Blender, then exports it as a Source Engine .mdl file for Gmod*

(and no, this probably won't be on the Workshop any time soon.)

Normally, I wouldn't post this here, but fuck you I felt like it. Decided to start a modded minecraft series. Depending on how it goes on, might devolve into me playing a character lol. If y'all want the mod pack used enough, I'll post it as a reblog to this post. (It's the same pack used in the current Zooge iteration)
