Is this really what people see in the server? - Xray_Doc - 02-19-2014

Quote:Why do you want to learn how to use redstone. (i want to be like sethbling)

Quote:What is a reasonable goal that you would like to achieve? I would like to learn how to make big maps like sethbling that involve a lot of Redstone and get YouTube famous for it.

Quote:Why do you want to learn how to use redstone? Because I would Like to embark on my journey as a "YouTuber"


Has ORE just become a way for people to try and make it big on Youtube, now? Rather then actually caring about the community or trying to learn something?

Personally I've never seen anyone like this actually in the server, only forums.

It doesn't matter if they don't say what they want to do with their education on the server, it's the fact that they still have the idea of doing it even after being part of the community.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Iceglade - 02-19-2014

It's not unique to ORE... at all. Youtube provides a really easy way to "get famous". It costs maybe 10 dollars to start up, and requires little to no dedication outside of what you're actually doing. I'll admit I was drawn into that at first.... but not anymore. I've realized how sad it is that being looked up to is the goal of life now.

EDIT: Also, could you link those apps?

EDIT #2: As for the first one, it's almost worse than that that people look up to a youtuber like that. Whether it be sethbling or prop, what have any of us done? Made computers or whatever in a video game? We haven't done anything that should make us idolized by anybody. Essentially, they are saying that Minecraft is their life. Which, self-explanatorially, is terrible.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Xray_Doc - 02-20-2014

I could find the links, but I don't want to in case people start replying to the threads.

Protip: Just search youtube and set it to only be in the school apps (new and unapproved)

This might also be interesting...

inb4 sethbling in disguise

But in all seriousness, maybe we should make it more clear to new users how this server is just for the fun of creating and being a part of this community.

You know, at first it was funny when newbies wanted to be like sethbling. Now it's annoying, just like the old computer joke. ("But, can it run minecraft INSIDE of minecraft?!?"). Even though I made that joke a few days ago :3.

Do you think there should be a new application process? Maybe one stricter?

I think you are refering tp the one guy you just reviewed? Yeah, well he has 2 school apps and his app in build server is named schoolapp. All of thwm have about the same content, which means he isn't listen to your replies.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Dcentrics - 02-20-2014

\O/ you got me

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Xeomorpher - 02-20-2014

Get a cage...

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Xray_Doc - 02-20-2014

Stop going off topic, I really think this is a serious problem.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Xeomorpher - 02-21-2014

I agree, but I still do it. I am the problem.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - David - 02-21-2014

Usually Xray is the one going off-topic and Xeo is the one bringing him on-topic.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Xray_Doc - 02-21-2014

I wouldn't post it in the app (Dcentrics and Evil know what app I'm talking about), but the guy actually editted his post so it wouldn't say to be like sethbling.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Dcentrics - 02-21-2014

mhm....... i was speechless when i first read it. i was tempted to make an archive subforum just to put it in there

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - David - 02-21-2014

Move it into legends!

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Xray_Doc - 02-21-2014

Stop. This isn't a joke. I think this is something that should seriously be discussed as it can impact the future of this community greatly.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Legofreak - 02-22-2014

i joined this server because i wanted a community that actually knows what i am talking about when i make crazy stuff with redstone.

Regarding the way people view ORE, I think that as long as it is viewed as being, in any sense of the word, superior, then it is good. While most people who want to 'be like sethbling' are misinformed, them coming here to do so shows that they view us as being equivalent with sethbling, which from their perspective is a good thing. Therefore, I'd say our image is a good one.

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Dcentrics - 02-24-2014

Yes and No guy, it brings in noobs by the truck loads that thing that redstone is an easy topic to learn. Redstone isn't easy by any part of the imagination.... at least what we do with it..

RE: Is this really what people see in the server? - Dcentrics - 02-26-2014

see there are a good and a bad side to it
