    Hey guys! Lets talk about the time you joined and the times you cherished on BC!

    Me First:

    Before BuildCraftia, I used to always play on a prison server. It was my favorite server and everyone on there knew me and it was a good community like BC. I spent like a month trying to achieve the best rank on that server, and when I finally got it, the server owner decided to reset everything so I lost that rank and never went back to that server. Then I decided to go look for a creative server. I scrolled down and they all kind of looked like cheap servers. Then I found "BuildCraftia" and decided that looked the best. When I joined nobody welcomed me (//cri) and then I got into a fight with another gray just cause'. So.... I almost got banned the day I joined. One time I was on and told a really dirty joke. Everyone called me immature and I figured that they were right, so my whole server personality changed to be a lot nicer. I started to become one of "The popular grays." I decided in December 2013 to take a break from Minecraft. Sometime in Feburary I got an email from something called "Arcadia" (I'm not sure why or how I got this email) so I went on the websitte link it had and was like "I KNO THEZE PEOPLE FROM BC" I found the IP to arcadia on that website and was immedeately greeted by StickWarsLit who said "I REMEMBER YOU, YOU WERE SO CHILL!" so anyway I donated 50 bucks, got helper, we switched back to BC, and got mod. This is an excellent community, even when times are tough.

    Ur turn to share ur story.

    Ok, long story here. I used to play on this very small factions server, like 1-5 people online at a time and that was rare during the last months of it. Well, anyways, I donated $15 there, and I was essentially op. I could go creative, change peoples gamemodes, nicknames, colored names, unlimited land claim, exc. But then at the end of 6th grade, I was talking to a friend from my spanish class. I was looking for a server and he told me about buildcraftia. I forgot the ip though. But then at the start of 7th grade, he regave me the ip. I joined, and soon become hated by some people because of the stuff I would do in dtc sometimes :/. I don't do it anymore though :p. Anyways, november came, I got VIP, then december, I got MVP. Then arcadia came around, aka the dark ages. PS. This is what I call arcadia. Won't go into detail about that. Then BCSN came back while I was on vacation in England. I got back and started playing instantlly. About a month later, helper apps came and mine got accepted. Then end of july, I donated $50 to conquest, btw, donate there so yea. I became mod in mid august right as I got back from my vacation at a waterpark resort. And thats my story.

    So, My story. I joined BuildCraftia in February of 2013 I think. When I joined I didn't know anyone. I don't remember a lot About me joining because it was so far back. A Few months later I got a warp. warp Rustic. I was so Happy when I got it. Then a few months later I got Another warp. Warp Castle! I was super Happy! Btw thanks all who helped on both. After that I forget everything. like >.< Right? Then, the big NOO came. as Jeremy Calls it the dark Ages. I didn't mind the change. Then a few months later BC came ALIVE! #BACKFROMTHEDEAD! I was like OMG MOM! Then, nothen really happened...... BUT WAIT! here comes the GOOD PART!!! The End.

    Ok so here's a long one on and I'm on my phone so this'll take 20 minutes.

    I was a noob at minecraft when I joined a little over two years ago. Me and my friend actually wanted to build together so we looked for a good creative server. My friend found this one and we built a really nooby house. I then can remember having a blast on the server as a reg. Doing normal reg things like rp. I then thought about donating. There was a 50% deal going on at the time so I convinced my mother (I know so pro) to buy my donator. I then for some reason convinced an admin to give me a nickname even though it was a VIP perk. This made a lot of other donators mad saying it wasn't fair and stuff and kinda started a war. I made up with everyone and stuff was cool. At this time I have been around for maybe 3 months. Then something happened between me and a player steeza and we started a war of donators vs. VIPs. That all kinda faded away went I ended up purchasing VIP. Around this time was when I met givemethatbaby, who was an admin at the time. I helped him with something and soon befriended him. Shortly after that ( I'm not sure actually what went down here) there was this mod nom where the candidates were appointed by staff. Givemethatbaby put me on the ballet and I ended up winning. It turned out that this wasn't actually an official thing I was a bit upset but I got over it.
    I don't remember much between this next period. I started making actual friends on the server and I began to become a regular player that people recognized. I have been on the server for about a year. MVP came out I bought that shortly after. Many months passed. I remember beta testing the old old Dtc and wrecking everyone. More stuff, meeting people blah blah.
    Then came... You know what. Arcadia. I wanted to play on it but I didn't have the motivation. I hate the server to be honest and didn't enjoy what they were doing to my beloved Buildcraftia. I quit. I said goodbye to the community and all my friends. Then one day I was bored and decided to hop on and I got the news from pats that BC was back! I didn't believe it! I was so excited.

    Here I am now, a few months after Arcadia even closer to the community than I've ever been before. I've draw closer to so many of you and have really made some great friendships that I will defiantly remember for the rest of my life.

    <3 you guys

    So, I joined BC around 2 years ago, and I played as a regular gray name for a looooonngg time, but after about 4 months of playing, I asked my dad to buy me donator, and he said yes, so I got it. I played as an orange guy for the longest time, but then schooltime came. I didn't play for a good 9 months, and during that time, [theserverthatshouldnotbenamed] sprung up, and fell down. About 2 months after [theserverthatshouldnotbenamed]'s downfall, I rejoined BC because I saw it in a backup of my servers.dat, so I checked if the server was still there. Turns out it did, and I retained my old donator rank! :D Later, I donated more money for VIP, and then a good friend of mine bought Premium for me! Now, I'm known for making the arenas, and being a derp.

    Well, My Friend Showed Me BC Back In 2012. It Was The Really Old Plot Server. I Was Really Uninterested In The Server At The Time. But I Kept It In My Server List. After 2 Months, I Went Back On The Server And Met Some Nice Members. I Got Hired To Tank IND., Made Game Land, And A Whole Ton Of Other Stuff. When BC Went Down To Become Arcadia, I Had NO Idea What Happened Because I Wasn't Alerted Of This. I Eventually Found Arcadia. I Helped With Pirate Parkour, Got Hired To Chicken INC., And Made A Prototype Version Of The Indiana Jones Adventure Ride From Disneyland. Now, I'm Making A DTC Map Based Off Of Indiana Jones.

    Anyway, That's My BC Story.

    So back then,
    I just got minecraft. I used to play games that i won't talk about anymore (Toontown & Club Penguin) and i met a lot of people threw those games. I then asked them "Hey, do you know any good minecraft servers" and they said "Well we do play on a few. There is a Skyblock server, a Creative server" and then i said what is the creative servers name. Then he said "BuildCraftia" . I then said "WOAH, thats a awesome name." So i went on the server in late 2011-early 2012 and i started to build. I then decided "Hey, why not donate!". Luckily, it was my FIRST donation i ever made to ANY server, and i got VIP, the highest rank at the time. I later donated for Premium when the Owner 'BuildCraftia' (TemporarilyAlone) made the first Mall, which was small. I was so excited, and this rank stuck with me for a long time. I've been threw many adventures. Getting many warps, for example. You can check out the warps right now that i own: /warp ColorCodes & /warp LavaBattle.
    For you old timers, I made a original LavaBattle back in 1.4.3 on BuildCraftia, which was pretty cool. Then made a hit warp for the donators, Warp ColorCodes. Color codes showed what donators can do on signs in color! I didn't just want a original plot. Every single season i update the plot to the season (e.g Winter = Snow, snowmen, spruce tress).
    Donating was a big thing for me. It brought experiences to me that i never have seen before.
    BuildCraftia is a amazing, and i can deny moving servers. If Microsoft updates EULA and changes it to the way before, everyone would be happy.
    Anyway, The olden days of BuildCraftia was a blast. I had the best memorys back then. I remember the DTC beta server, the survival server (Griefing enabled, no commands at all). But when Arcadia came around, i became sad. Stressed that all the memorys are around, and if you didn't know Zach (MacMeBennyZ) became so stressed he formed a GRAY SPOT on his head!
    After Arcadia was done, we moved back to BuildCraftia. Most of the staff left (Sadly) but i'm happy with the replacements.
    In August i donated for MVP and was congratulated a lot.
    Thanks guys for all the memorys that you shared, thanks for everything
    Thank you for BuildCraftia.

    My fellow friend, MattyC164, invited me to the server. I went to take a look and it seemed like a really, really good server to be on. I started playing more and more on the server. I was awarded with a VIP rank: thanks to Matty, of course. I played in the server and started making my ‘/warp medieval’ at the time. Yes, it is really old build from me.

    Well, after I had finished the building I was awarded with the builder rank also known as MVP rank with a light green name. I started building things to the server, and one of the most awesome ones, in my opinion, is the Autumn DTC map. I also started making another one, but it was deleted after the Arcadia period.

    Well, just before Arcadia I was promoted to a Helper. Yes, basically I was the first ‘Helper’ on the server, since the first one was bobby’s (?) alternative account that had it. When Arcadia came I was promoted to Moderator and to Senior Moderator. Well, we all know what happened with that thing...

    I knew at the time I was going to be promoted to administrator. At least I was pretty sure. Well, this happened when we changed back to the good ol’ BuildCraftia and I have been one since then.

    I couldn't actually find a good server when I was searching I remember playing on servers like lavacraft and I loved survival games, I used to play almost every day I would play about 20 survival games and then I would search for a different server but I could never find much. I always used to play on factions/survival servers and didn't think of creative servers. I was running my own server when I found BC but I had to close it down cause it was too expensive. (btw this was on my other profile catdude12345). I started playing BC and everyone was quite friendly to me and I had played BC for about 5-6 months and I had MVP on that profile and then disaster struck. I couldn't log on to my profile anymore and I was really annoyed cause I couldn't stand not playing BC so I made a new account called KillzamZ. I played as KillzamZ for about a month where I got MVP again and ive had it up until now. I also have 3/6 pet packs and 3/4 trail packs and a private world and a penguin skin so I have dedicated most of my life to BC.

    Alright nerds sit and get some popcorn cuz this, is the epic story, of Miner.

    Just kidding, it's not that epic.

    Irregardless

    Just a warning, this will require some preface so bear with me

    So, My friend, Gabriel, showed me minecraft in the beginning of 7th grade, roughly 4 years ago, so then, about halfway through 7th grade, my friend @ilovepats2000 showed me BC, this was wayy back.

    "But Miner, why have we not heard of you before last summer?"

    I'm getting to that, so I thought the server was awesome and stuff and I built a church/herobrine shrine with craftman AKA hesp(I think). I then bought donator and was experimenting with WE, when disaster struck, I WE'd chests all over the plot and made it so I crashed when I joined. And because I was a nerdy little thing back then, I had no idea this could be fixed in less than a miute, if only I had told pats. Oh well. So I thought I couldn't join for about a year - year and a half. During this time I was on another server where I made a bunch of friends, got into fights, also I theorize it was my appearance that led to
    1)The fighting between estates/clans
    2)The staff fighting
    3)The eventual corruption and downfall of the server
    If you want to know why I think that, ask me later.
    So I was on that server for a while, then I was like,

    "Hey pats, remember that BC serverI can't get on?" And he was like "They reset it, you can get on, you could've if you'd told me you broke yourself"

    Whatever.

    So then I rejoined last summer, noone remembered me, happy times being shunned. Also, I was a donator but it didn't show in chat or tab, so I could use /speed but I looked like a reg. This led to about 4 bans from people thinking I was hacking(all 4 from Buster <3), yada yada yada, donating for MVP, Arcadia, blah blah blah. Here I am.

    So, that's the epic tale of Miner.

    I warned you it wasn't epic.

    I used to play on this Minecraft server for ever. It was my first and almost my last. A couple years ago my friend to Minecraft, I asked my Dad if I could buy it and he said yes. First of all, I made a youtube-video-followed house out of wood and I remember finding the house SO DAMN HARD! then my friend gee me the IP. I was taught the command ./tpa and kept forgetting it :p I built a big dirt house and remember looking at his and saying OMG HOW LONG DID IT TAKE YOU TO BUILT THAT!!!??? After that, I became a donator to that server and worked my way up to Administrator, with access to other stuffs. Soon after the server experienced some unknown event, It went off and everything corrupted. Since then it spiralled downwards and then I was given the c.buildcraftia.com by my other friend xP. I played for a while and then left, creative and plot me weren't really my thing. Finally, when my favourite server ever closed for good I joined BC full-time. Soon after I purchased Donator, Stayed at this rank for a while; Then I got V.I.P for a LONG while and now finally, as the rank I am, Premium. In conclusion, I love BC and my first server. Thanks for the amazing experiences and I don't know how you did it, but you made creative (for me) The best thing in the world :)

    Wow... This was longer than I anticipated originally...

    Okay Bai! :) Acer

    This Is My BC Story


    I started my YouTube channel playing happy wheels (never watch those videos or you shall die), I was getting bored of Happy Wheels and my brother (Zach, Mac, MacBennyZ) was already playing minecraft since like when it came out. So I got on MineCraft playing survival until News Years when the BC Fireworks thing was happening. I went on the server for my first time that night. The rest is history....
