A long standing member in the legacy community of Minecraft. Officially in the legacy community since December 2018!

'Mostly Full' Backstory

My history within the Minecraft legacy community encapsulates the most significant milestones and experiences

The Beginning

In December 2018, I embarked on my Minecraft journey on a server called BetaLands, overseen by its founder, Swetz. Presently, ownership has transitioned to JohnyMuffin, who also manages RetroMC.
BetaLands operated on the b1.7.3 version, reminiscent of Old School Minecraft, which had yet to be formally established at the time. At its peak, it was the second-largest server, often toe-to-toe, with RetroMC holding the top position as its main competitor. Over time, it also underwent numerous changes, both minor and significant, spanning the period before, during, and after my tenure there.
BetaLands is no longer operational today. However, the detailed history of the server is meticulously preserved on RetroMC's wiki, our affiliated partner. You can read all about it here!

Nostalgia Town

I developed and established a quaint township named Nostalgia, characterized by its intimate scale and adorned with structures inspired by medieval architectural design. Indeed, the town in Old School Minecraft bears its name, continuing its legacy. The residence where I resided during my tenure on BetaLands has been faithfully recreated in Old School Minecraft, featuring subtle enhancements and refinements.
The town also included a medium-sized wheat field solely for decorative purposes, a Nether hub portal, and two additional houses besides my own. One house was designated for a close friend, while the other accommodated an individual who will be anonymously referenced later in this autobiography.
The town's standout feature in BetaLands was its warp location known as 'Food', strategically set up by myself. This area housed a zombie pigman spawner, designed to channel them through a canal where players could efficiently dispatch them for a steady supply of cooked porkchops. It also boasted additional spawner locations for various other mobs including sheep, skeletons, zombies, and more.

First Staff Debut

I formed connections with the limited staff roster present on BetaLands at the time. As my involvement and passion for the community deepened, so did my aspiration to join the staff team. Drawing from my prior experience in other gaming environments, I possessed a foundational understanding of the responsibilities and expectations associated with being a staff member.

Eventually, my suitability for a staff position was endorsed by one of BetaLands' administrators, whom I'll anonymize as 'James' for confidentiality purposes. Selecting a gender-neutral pseudonym for discretion, I'll continue to refer to this individual in the third person throughout this narrative. Although there are individuals who are aware of this person's identity. James' mention in this autobiography is purely for documentation purposes, without any intention to cause disruption.

Putting aside other considerations, following James' recommendation of me to Swetz as their favored choice for a new staff member, I promptly took on the role of one of their committed moderators. Throughout my tenure, I remained the most active staff member, a status I maintained until the conclusion of BetaLands.
