Without going in too much detail I'm really sick of playing minecraft and I don't have a lot to do anymore so I'll be going away for a little while. Since I've been told I'm too blunt I'll just say that I am frustrated with how the server is run and the fact that there are basically no opportunities to prove myself as a decent builder. No one in the staff likes me enough or cares enough to let me help on any builds in Gensokyo which is one of the reasons why I joined the server in the first place. There is little room for advancement, at least for someone like me who is brutally honest and regarded by most as an asshole.

Another reason I'm leaving is that Yuuka's town has basically died and any potential new players are discouraged from helping due to the fact that they are required to work 24/7 on the town when they just want to play. Anyone who knows me on the server knows that I cared a lot about the town and spent countless hours trying to improve it so that it would look as good as possible. A little over half the builds there are mine. Without including too many personal details I have distanced myself with Yuuka because of issues like these and even with what I've done for the town I'm still told on a near daily basis to build more for a dying town.

I doubt I'll be quitting permanently but I've been needing to say some of this for a long time so I'm putting it out there. I need a break from all of this and I try to stay away from politics on the server. I know about half the staff has some beef with me because I always express my opinions even if they are unpopular or rude. I know that at some point I've probably made everyone angry but I honestly don't mean to do it.

Anyways if you want to contact me my steam name is LiShengshun. Apart from helping Koko with her build I will most likely not be on the server for a couple months. Thanks for reading and I'm sorry if I offended anyone. I needed to get this off my chest.

As far as I know, not much of the staff have an opinion on you... The rest of the community I have no idea. As far as building for Gensokyo, the builders don't seem to be that motivated :/

But I mean if you really wanted to build for Gensokyo, we have a whole creative world where you can build things for Gensokyo if you really wanted to! (where were you when I was getting people to help me with the moon?)

If you want to take a break from MC but still wanna hang out, you can get in the mumble and play with us on other games! But if you don't want to I understand. Have fun anyway!

Thanks Shimitty, I am definitely interested in helping out in the moon or anything really. I did have a prototype build but my style has improved since I made it and I'm not at all satisfied with it. I am honestly sick of playing MC in general so at least for the next month I will probably not.

I might consider coming on mumble more often.

Yeah, mumble is where pretty much everything happens, minecraft or not.
Deffinatly want to hop in there if you want to make a mark.

Like you said within the post, yeah the whole negative post is kinda blunt and sudden.
Have you talked to other staff/builders that you are interested in becoming one yourself?
Never see you in mumble, so we (well atleast I) haven't noticed you as much. Just thought you were a player that loves playing in our server ;P

Like we said, get on mumble a little more often, hear how its like and get closer to us.

Meow.

As far as genso goes, there hasn't exactly been a whole lot going on even with the builders lately. Also, staff can't really notice anything if you don't tell us anything xD There are a lot of users so we can't check every player's builds manually.

Either way I do hope you come back soon. It's understandable that you might be a bit frustrated at the moment but you are a long timer so it's definitely be sad if we didn't see you for too long. (At least I feel that way, anyway)

In a word, no, because I'm not trying to beg for promotions even if it sounds like that's what I'm doing here. I have asked to help participate in a few builds and while I'm sure the intent was to find people who wanted to do that sort of thing, I seem to have missed those opportunities (Shimitty hit this on the head). I understand that you feel it's a bit sudden, but I've been here almost since the start and haven't really gotten anywhere. >.<

I agree with your first comment. There isn't much that hasn't been done already, which is the main reason I'm a bit frustrated. And while I understand that "no build is sacred," I don't want to be that guy who tries to rebuild stuff that doesn't need to be rebuilt, especially since I'm not even an elder yet, let alone builder.

I'm glad I was able to address this in a constructive manner. I don't really have a problem with anyone on the server, I just feel like I've spent a long time pouring my effort into stuff that doesn't even matter. And as I said before I just need a break.

I'm sorry to hear this, but I appreciate you stepping up and saying something. When it comes to Minecraft, theres always room for improvement when it comes to building, and taking a break from certain games or communities can be helpful for people. I hope everything goes well for you, and I'll be sure to welcome you back if you ever do so.

Take it easy~ (cause why not)

Take as long as you want dude. I understand how people lose passion for things over time. When you come back I'll welcome you with open arms!

Probably won't be all that long but I hope I come back ready to build.
