Special Player Interview: @PhoenixPuppy ft. @metr0n0me


If you were an animal, what animal would you be and why?
“I would be a wolf, because I think they are the most mystical animals. In ways I think life would be much simpler as a wolf, there is a natural order to things and everything else would just be instinct.”

Who was your all time favorite staff member and why?
“Alien_Venom for sure. He would always chat with me when he was staff, unlike a lot of the other admins way back when. He was the one who accepted my staff application, and was also the one who trained me after that. He would always answer any questions I had, or help me with any problems while I was staff. I really looked up to him before and even after I was staff.”


How would you describe MeepCraft in one word?
“Community.”

Do you feel that meepcraft is what enabled your relationship to become what it is today? If so, what activities that Meepcraft offered allowed the both of you form such a strong relationship? (Joint answer from @PhoenixPuppy and @metr0n0me)
“Towny helped me create just about all of my friendships, mainly because you get to know the people you live in the town with. A lot of it is built on teamwork, working to build the town, working together to get materials or trading them, helping new players by giving them materials and a town to stay in.”

Hey that castle is my first ever build on the server! From 4 years ago! : - D

 

Awesome!!

 

4 years ago.... seriously.....

 

You should have copy righted it so you could charge them for it

 

yay new edition ^-^

great job everyone!

 

I was more focused on that font. You need to use the #1 font in the world. #WINGDINGSSSSSSSS

 

I'll have you know sir.... I bought that half finished castle with my brother and we attempted to finish it and give it the renowned glory it deserved. If it wasn't for that the castle would be withered into the wasteland slowly rotting away into despair.

 

Yeah the castle was probably built more around 2.5 years not 4 haha. I remember that
