Woah what why how

This post has been removed due to stupidity. continue browsing the forums at your leisure.

I never realized there was a subreddit for Mine-imator until today. If you're in the Mine-imator forums, you probably know me as Ethaniel, the idiot who has an obsession with dirt lens and ultraviolet colored lighting.

Have no good project ideas on my mind. Nothing for animations, nothing for wallpapers. I can’t find a style that suits me. I can’t make a good render without adding light rays and lens flares.

I have a sudden urge to play Minecraft Alpha

It's so close!

COPPA is just stupid anyways. It’s the parent’s job to protect their kids. Not the government.

If you didn't know already https://discord.gg/W4eh7Ug
I have a discord.

I kinda hate the new Bedrock skin system.  First of all, ew. Just no.  I'm not even gonna use it, ima have my old classic type skin. No problem. Not like I can use it anyway, because it doesn't work offline on Xbox or Switch. Maybe win10, idk.
 

?

creeper, aw man

should i kind of like make a 100% honest status update expressing what's actually going on with my mind on these forums?

PSA

I find many popular minecraft memes very offensive.

In case you didn't see it
The more responses the better!

I’m quite disappointed by the actions of some members.

Imagine someone downvoting you in two different topics from 1 month apart at the same time. Look at the little Goblin Jr, gonna cry?

I feel I should address the whole debacle with that Revenge reanimated thing. I made one of my worst mistakes by being rude in initially defending it. At the time, I didn’t watch it in its entirety and I assumed the downvotes were coming from those who disliked the fact it was based on a dead meme. After hearing all the chaos that happened behind the scenes and actually watching it, I can safely say I made a massive mistake, and I apologize to everyone for sounding and being rude in what I said. I feel like those who came out the theater watching The Phantom Menace for the first time. You initially defend something, and later on you fully realize what you watched was absolute garbage.
Due to the whole debacle I’ll be pulling out of Hozq’s Gem Collab. Hopefully he can redeem himself with this collab, but with the revenge collab, I honestly have my doubts.
If you’ve read through this in its entirety, I simply thank you! You all have a good evening!

it is now my birthday.

Here's what I think the Revenge Reanimated Collab did wrong, just for future reference for you potential collab hosts in the future. I'm not here to call out the hosts or anyone participating, just to point out what went wrong throughout.
First of all, there was an extremely frustrating lack of communication. There were no Discord mentions ever from either of the collab hosts when they told us very important information, such as:
Switching collab hosts Nearing deadline There are still people who need to submit an entry Hosts don't know who still need to submit This lack of communication caused my problem. I submitted both my entries to the first host months ago, which he confirmed, and I assumed I was safe. Check back into that channel for fun in late September, and I find out the host is switched and the new host doesn't think I even submitted anything. If I had never checked in, my part of the collab would be completely missing. If the deadline is that close and has been delayed so many times, you need to tell people instead of blaming them for being lazy. The deadline was missed so many times because people either forgot the deadline or thought they were fine. I don't know how many people finished but weren't in the video, but judging by the fact a third of the final video is just the original, I can't be the only one.
You can't just assume people will constantly check back on the channel. Please tell people things. Also, manage your entries better. I don't know how my entries were lost in translation, nor how many others were lost.
Secondly, the editing wasn't the best. There wasn't a huge effort to sync stuff to the music. I get that it was rushed, but again, it didn't have to be rushed. The video itself feels scrambled together. When watching the video you can tell there were huge problems in the development of it. I get that the host editing it probably felt overwhelmed and didn't know what to do. In the host's mind at the time, half the people who entered are totally flaking out and not submitting their entries. That's not the case for most of it, but all of this would have been solved if the hosts kept constant communication with their entrants. Delay it again if you have to, just never leave blank spots in a collab. It's absolutely messy and completely takes away from any positive aspect of the video.
Also, I wasn't tagged in the topic, even though I was in the video. Not a big deal, I just don't know why that happened or what went wrong. Maybe they were using an outdated list, maybe it's partially for the same reason they didn't have my submission. Either way there was something to be handled better there.
Again, no disrespect towards either of the hosts. They didn't realize what they were doing wrong and didn't know what to do in certain situations. I'm not here to chastise them, just to point out what can be handled better in future collabs. I know from personal experience that both hosts are cool and talented dudes. Mistakes were made along the way, which is okay! But they're worth talking about.
That'll be all, thank you.

When you love autumn and want to make cool wallpapers for the season but LITERALLY NO IDEAS ARE COMING. I'm super upset about this, because I've started like 3 different projects but if I can't get fully into it, it won't look good. My best wallpapers come from an idea that I have a sudden spur of motivation for and are usually completed within an hour. But I've been trying to force myself to make something hoping the idea will click but nothing comes out of it and it ends up being wasted time.

this community is interesting. there's alot of people here that are likeable but also dislikeable at the same time. there's also some people i just completely dislike. not going to mention anyone, but i know some of you might know who i'm talking about.
