only thing you forgot was some of the modded content

Back in the day I used to be an avid fan of KingDaddyDMAC, and omg the nostalgia hit I felt when I saw it again after it got famous thanks to grian brought back so many memories, as well as this video showing Season 1's old content. I haven't looked back at that stuff for ages. I do agree that the modded content would be another interesting thing to cover, I feel most of Grian's fans and new hermit craft fans never knew the modded portion existed. Also KingDaddyDMAC might not have did anymore stuff on the vanilla server, but that's because he had a few year period of being super active on the modded server. Give him the justice he deserves!

All I got was “Before tragical-“ *”FEBREEZE”* WAY TO RUIN THE MOMENT OF SILENCE AD!!! 😂😭

Hey, Beef! Nice to see you here! Thanks for the clarification! My apologies I got that wrong. Take care!

Hi beef

Poor Monkey

Wonder how many other hermits will show up in this comment section

Xisuma still playing

😂

Doc's skin has a lot of lore behind it. Iirc, it started off as just a creeper in a lab coat.

That's actually really cool! Lol

Its kinda like an exclusive game skin that came from the actual devs lol

Huh, the more you know!

Also Bishop, xb's dog, died recently

​@@creeperpl4yer Was about to comment that :')

I DIDNT KNOW JELLIE DIED WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN

@@HanCaelike a week before season 10 launched

@@HanCae between the seasons.

I wondered about that. Etho might get booted if that was true.

@@bbacher95 Etho, Iskall, Stress, Mumbo, they all took some very long breaks

Mumbo is massive chunk of hermit craft viewer ship, it would take so much worse things than taking a break for thek to kick him

That would be sad though

That's what I'm saying, they don't kick people for inactivity, and the server doesn't get "full" they don't need to kick people to add more or refuse people because there's too many I mean look at Joel and Skizz, no we lost 1 hermit, but we got 2 more

I'm not sure about Marc's timeline exactly, but Dinnerbone was hired to mojang after his stint on hermitcraft, not before. Dinnerbone was already a pretty famous pillar of the community due to his library of popular mods.

@@Wolfboy607 Dinnerbone was hired by Mojang in Feb 2012. Hermitcraft season 1 started in April 2012. He joined the server a couple of times towards the end of the season but spent more time on Mindcrack which was more popular at the time. He wasn't really a "hermit", more like a special guest.

And now 2 Mojang employees, kingbdogz and slicedlime, became guests and had a tour on the Hermitcraft s9 server which happened a year ago

brother I was surprised as well, especially with that riot employee person 💀

​@@_darcc is there any content of that anywhere? I'd love to see that

Especially for minecraft youtubers. Def a good thing

That's the beauty of Hermitcraft and why it endures. It's a group of genuine good friends first and foremost. Little space for drama when it's you and your friends having fun.

​@@edim108thats not the kind of controversy they are talking abt... they meant how most minecraft youtubers from that era of youtube turned out to be pedos

I imagine it's because of how selective it is. If everyone has to agree to get you in there's both little 'drama' and little whoops I'm going on a new list today incidents

Personally I imagine we don't hear about it, I've been in communities linked to it and stuff has been buried, people just don't admit to it

You could even see the resemblance IRL

the B team and chimneyswift were soem of the first minecrafters i watched back when they were doing the Attack of the B team mod pack (also how i learned of Cupquake cause Swift was friends w her and Red and helped them learnt the old witchery mod)

BDubs mentioned on his Imp and Skizz interview that Pungence is a master at UKposts optimization and has more subs than him, and BDub's most watched video was a suggestion of Pungence's (The Paw Patrol episode with his daughter)

@@TheyCallMeDio I've never seen Pungence, but they also SOUND alike and it's scary!!! I heard him playing Among Us with some of the Hermits a couple years ago!

That explains the skin

I didn’t know about 90% of these people lol

Most people only know abt scar, mumbo, Grian and a few others

Dinnerbone dying to the water glitch on HermitCraft is the reason why they got rid of the need to have different water depth to negate fall damage

@@Emmcappersadly yes, but most people that are active in the fandom know most of the hermits.

that shocked me so much. also, i play games from riot and is on twitter a lot, so i was also pretty surprised seeing a fucking rioter was a hermit.

I think that's why Welsknight went into a bit of sabbatical type of a thing, after TFC passed away.

@@FharishAhmedPortfoliomaybe they were somehow related Rest in peace TFC

@@noobmaster9292 I understand... I'm watching Welsknight's old video, the last time he made a castle, and was hanging out with TFC... Extremely nostalgic

And they all chipped in for his new wifi

@@noobmaster9292 maybe maybe not, all i know is they were very good friends and have known each other for a long long time

Pretty sure his family didn't really want to release details

Truly a strong man

In his videos he shared a lot of his struggles - it made me so mad about the US healthcare system. Here in the UK, he would have had a ton of support and medical treatment for free and any medications he needed at a nominal charge. It really broke me to see someone suffer so much. He really did seem like he'd given up, he could barely play MC because his arm wouldn't stay in the right position, it was crooked and painful. So sad, he seemed like a really lovely chap. :/

@@catsandcrafts171 most people in America give up when it comes to healthcare- its sad...knowing this new season is the first season to start fully without him...

I remember since season 6 or 7 he had some health issues and surgeries, but not sure of the details

Love listening to him back then. R.I.P

Fr he'll be remembered

in a server I play on, we have a guy like TFC. Dude just digs. There's a religion around him

@@justtjamess7214 That's so wholesome omg!

Yeah, Guude tried to get the MindCrack members to sign contracts where a portion of their channels earnings would be distributed to all the members evenly, basically a way for his inactive self to make money off the much more popular guys. It would also require them to do variety gaming under the MindCrack banner since he believed Minecraft was going to eventually die and was already barely playing.

@@Kozuu7 Well despite how the numbers are dwindling down, I think Minecraft is one of those games that just won't die, or if it does die, it will take another 30 years or so for it to completely be dead. Idk who this Guude person is, but that's so scummy to ask the other members of MindCrack to share their earnings with each other. There's just no fair benefits in that deal, it benefits the lazy people more as they can just not publish/upload anything and still gets some profits.

What was the b team controversy? also yeah mindcrack falling apart was really sad- once etho left I really knew it was done for. (Just remembered beefs jungle village oof nostalgia, or maybe that was on hermit i dont even know man lol).

The amount of actual misinformation in this comment thread is amazing. - Out of the 30 members MindCrack had by the end of 2014 (when it allegedly died), only 5 left: Etho, BdoubleO, generikb, paulsoaresjnr & thejims. BlameTheController left two years later for completely different personal reasons. - After 2014 a further 16 guest members joined (including DireDwarf, winner of Surviving MindCrack Island) - The server never 'imploded' -- season 5 continued for another year & a half after the supposed "death" of MindCrack. After this another 4 seasons took place (most recent was season 9 in 2021-2022). VintageBeef has participated in seasons 6, 7 and 9. I don't believe there is a current active season but there could be in the future. (EDIT - I've been informed that yes there is apparently a season 10 happening right now) - Even after leaving, Etho, BDoubleO & the rest still retained "VIP" status on MindCrack (i.e. they were whitelisted & could join at anytime) Etho proved this in VintageBeef's MindCrack Season 7 Episode 3 when he joined and helped Beef build a house. They could play with the MindCrackers; they just couldn't be part of the business aspect. - Most people agreed to the contracts because of the YT landscape in 2014. Back then to be monetised you needed to be in a multi-channel network (MCN) or chosen to be part of the UKposts partner program. It was insanely hard to get into partner program, so most opted for MCNs. Some MCNs like Machinima were notorious for being stingey, taking huge cuts of ad revenue, outright stealing content from people's channels and rarely ever helpful. As far as I know at the time Etho was the only member to be part of the UKposts partner program. - In late 2013 Millbee's channel was completely removed from YT because he accidentally had half a second of anime girl boob in a Katawa Shoujo let's play video. His MCN did LITERALLY NOTHING to help him out. He only got his channel reinstated because TotalBiscuit used his connections at UKposts to help him out. - After this Guude proposed a MCN that they would own and operate. This combined with a copyright agreement to stop people from using the MindCrack name & logo unofficially. - People were not "forced" to join the MindCrack MCN mind you. Docm77 at the time kept the MCN he was partnered with. The ones who left were never under any obligation to join the MCN. - Most of the MindCrackers are still friends. I say *most* because from what I understand the B-Team still harbour ill feelings to MindCrack. Etho is certainly friends with all of them, collaborating with remaining MindCrackers like Guude, PauseUnpause, Zisteau and SethBling well after the split. Paulsoaresjnr & thejims are still on good terms with all of them as far as I know. - The MindCrack Podcast is still active btw Hope this helps you learn a bit about MindCrack. As someone who has been a fan of the server for the last 12-13 years, it really saddens me how all these so-called "documentaries" about MindCrack have very little research and basically rely entirely on hearsay & rumor. Yes, HermitCraft is many more times popular than MindCrack. Yes MindCrack's time in the sun has long gone. Doesn't excuse spreading fake news.

@@Myne1001 there's an ongoing season 10, it seems like it's mostly the patrons who play on it though

Wonder why he deleted all those hermit videos

@@zacharygreenwald4561 my guess to make his channel more uniform, since he does city skylines stuff now

I LOVE watching Biffa's Cities: Skylines stuff! I was super excited to find him when I got into that game!!!

Sad he deleted his Tea Time interviews though. One of the two interviews Etho has ever done.

I thought Biffa may return 1 day, but if he has deleted his Hermitcraft videos then maybe not. I also follow his city skylines content..

Joe actually has a new skin as of recently :)

TFC will forever be a hermit

ah yes, to pay respects

he is the only hermit that will forever be a hermit

Hey, Coestar! Nice to see a comment from a former hermit, thanks for the kind words and keep up the streaming grind!

Hey, I'm sorry to say that I am not familiar with your content but I know that you are an MC legend with the best of 'em. Hermits often get asked why they started playing minecraft or who was the first person they watched play MC and if it's not Etho, it's nearly *always* you. o7 Thanks for being a huge reason behind my favorite SMP and content creators. :3

Will do

Python was my brother’s favourite MC UKpostsr and Wels was mine, we discovered hermit craft when trying to find a collab with them

yeah facts, his terraria is also really good. absolute og member of youtube

If I remember correctly, he got burnt out pretty easily, so that makes sense to me

hes a great youtuber and (seems like) a really nice guy irl. his terraria vids are also super cool

Hes been on a few of them. Miss those Friday night staby staby streams.

didnt he show up in a bdubs video recently and leave his sandwich unattended?

Another fun fact: He sounds EXACTLY like Bdubs. I didn’t know who he was when I first watched that among us stream, and I was convinced someone had a voice modulator or Bdubs was amazingly voicing two players 😂

he *will* forever be the richest hermit. (also, do i know you? I think i saw you on grian’s first ep?*

with out a dout

@@Ineedanameguyshelpme yep, I wrote the neck kisses comment…

​@@Dingusdoofus This is very comedic out of context. Rip people who have not seen the joel/demise clips lol

@@M00N3CL1SPE the neck kisses are from Decked Out 2

he was logging on to do maintenance checks, fyi

Yeah, beginning in Season 4 the Roster we know today really started to take shape and the changing members slowed down a ton!

TFC has a vlog channel called Tinfoil Chef as well. He started out cooking, a Star Trek parody , vlogs, and his Journey to the Farlands content. He had a Child's Play Charity donation attached to the Farlands series. I'm not sure how complete it is, as it seems a little hard to navigate, but the Wayback Machine does have at least part of his old blog website.

Same here, I didn’t know of or watch him, but I know he was a good person and I am sad he is no longer with us. May he rest in piece.

While he was still posting videos, I went to have a look at his channel and was surprised by the number of views that guy had for such simple content.

I've been watching him since season 2. His content was always a different style from the others. If I remember right, he got the silver play button after losing his leg. I can't find the right one at the moment, but there is a unboxing video on his vlog channel.

No kidding, spud was the one I found HC through back in season 2. I was heartbroken when he left, but eventually jumped over to mumbo (prob the biggest hermit at the time) who kept me engaging with content. Spread out from there

You rang

Hey, Python! Thanks for the kind words and clarification!

Thanks for clarifying, Python! These sorts of fan made edits can often contain quite a lot of misinformation (though I have to admit, the creator here did a pretty fantastic job for the most part... very thorough as well).

Yeah personally I feel like it probably wasn't malicious and was just meant to be a harmless prank but it definitely should have been thought through better

Omg, he swore?!!?😮😮😮😮

it's just a Minecraft server and some words, y'all taking this too seriously

Ehhh, it really wasnt that bad tho

I think the worst part was taking donations from people he tricked

And then he actually did what he said, and disappeared. Didn’t just wait a few months before sneaking back online hoping people would just forget or stop caring (like MiniLadd pulled) or give his apology, ask for forgiveness and keep streaming. He just left. Honestly, I kinda respect that. Hope he learned from it and makes a better man out of himself.

​@@ekrathrawlI think miniladd is the best example of how not to act in that situation. Can't believe people still watch him.

Also have no clue who Spoon is or was, but I was coming down to make the same comment. Wish this was the standard, rather than the long, drawn-out dramatics of so many others.

I highly recommend Hermitcraft Recap. That way you can see what the other hermits are up to in a condensed form. Plus the 3 that work on it are just awesome.

man... just reading that is nuts I was a viewer since near the end of season 4, and I thought I was late to the party

Same bro, my first SMP was with Grian's vid randomly popping up in my YT algo and got hooked. And I think it was S7? Not 6? His build was mocked by other hermit as it looked like a blender😂😂

it was season 6 and it only looked like a blender at the start@@vearus19

⁠​⁠@@vearus19I think that was actually season 6, i remember his base looking like a water filter or something lol

Joe has moments like that, and then he completely remakes Doc's intro but with howdys in place of the electric guitar. It's great

a fellow fan of Joe! hes super underrated and an integral part of the hermitcraft team regardless of flashy skills. he's always there to help other hermits and was the only other hermit aside from Xisuma to be fully present in every season 1-10

It was the early 2000s. It was a fad. If you were a 'gamer girl' u had red hair.

Even now Gem has red hair lol

​@@thataintfalco7106 i think she's naturally red-headed though lol

@@SliferStreaming yeah ik

Another thing is so many skins are just nothing but underwear for some reason.😂

Honestly yeah it really is

Honestly, I don’t think it’s ironic. He left because he saw opportunity elsewhere, and that isn’t his fault. He wasn’t denied access because he left, either. He went through the process most candidates do and was denied when one or more members disagreed. He really didn’t do anything wrong by leaving the server. Idk about him personally lol, but what he did during s8 was pretty stupid

​@@thataintfalco7106 It's also not really surprising that, humorously, Generik's not a great fit for Hermitcraft anymore. Hermitcraft's become a VERY PG, Friendly, and Wholesome place. However the way I would describe Genny is "curt". His sense of humor's not always alligned with other people's, including my own, and to be fair, I don't think that's an issue, but it does clash with the current Hermitcraft ethos.

​@@KingTaltiai remember loving GB when i was younger, but would he fit with the people today? hands down no. he made, he was my favorite hermit, and sometimes i do go back and watch a few videos, reliving back when i was younger... even though he's a bit of a dumbass, he is also a lot of good fun in his own way

@@StarlightLexie Yeah, he's just a goofball, but the issue is that his brand of goof, through very little of his action, has become a bit of a sore spot in this age on the internet

Thanks, Static!

Oh you already saw this, disregard my comment on xisuma's video then.

he did that last season no?

Yeah he took like a 9 month break from hermitcraft last season

@@Scripzure Yes. He went away for a few weeks, and came back. When he came back, he talked about how he almost quit UKposts. Then he took another break like right after that. The season ended and all he’d done is build a small base with a sky bridge, just to destroy it all later when he came back for the second time.

Hes made some small statements on the new season anout trying to go at this season in a different way. Less focus on mega buikding and kore focus on interacting and jsut having fun. ​@@Mike322161

he seems to have decided now that he won't worry nearly as much about the numbers, from what he's said it sounds like he's taking a much more casual approach to youtube from now on which seems sustainable now

This was the same for Sl1p. They found way better success that way for a while.

The server they played on was called Pooping Evolved, and for a long time it was kind of like the Hermitcraft of Ark. It ran for at least 5 seasons and they also had seasons on each of the new maps! Sl1pg8r also played on this server and the two of them made a ton of videos together on the server. Former hermit KingDaddyDMAC was also on the server and I think I remember a couple of other former hermits playing on it. XBcrafted had a long series on several of the different seasons, and Keralis had a brief season on it too. I would love to see a server where the current roster of Hermits plays ARK!

@@thunderblaze9997 Oh interesting... I never knew the name of the Server, just watched Zuljin a few times. Welsknight, VintageBeef, and DocM77 apparently spent time on the server as well. Along with Lapis Lauri. I believe Lapis Lauri is someone I've seen Welsknight raid a few times here and there at the end of his streams.

​@@thunderblaze9997lol could you imagine Scar on Ark I crave that kind of chaos

That's where DMac went too

Not to forget that he eventually got kicked out of mindcrack because he wasn't disclosing sponsorships and essentially scamming kids. Dude is a grifter.

Didn't old man Willekers did something similar and tried to steal code from mindcracks server with nividan and thats why he was never invited either as a member and broke friendship with guideboulderfist?

@@ernestoarce7984 oldmanwilikers (Rob) was a terrible person, burnt every bridge. He wasn't paying people and pocketed a bunch of money from playmindcrack. Lots of people spoke out against him and dude had some serious mental issues.

@@Skypost4ever He had a great Tabletop RPG series going after and he squandered it by making the same mistakes again, and burnt more bridges which brought several people he at one point collaborated with closer together. Leading indirectly to HcJustin and Chiblee to gain an audience by leaving his content group and joining Mindcrack's/Northernlion's circle via games like PUBG and Mario Kart 8 initially. Rob's actions are paritally what lead to Coestar's and PauseUnPause's decisions to both get a full time job again as well. Rob's TTT group effectively became Coe's TTT group slowly over time bringing in Mindcrack mainstays up until the middle of the pandemic I believe.

"the fact that GenerikB stole Iskall's "Vault Hunters" code and spun up his own clone, which was not favorably received by the hermits." lmao what are you talking about? The hermits don't gaf about VH, why would they? It has nothing to do with them. It's Iskall's baby. And there is *zero* bad blood between Iskall and Genny. Iskall has raided Genny a few times. Just another comment full of misinformation/disinformation.

o7

Another small "mistake" is at 9:18. Kiershar originally only unlisted his episodes but in July 2021 UKposts privated them (along with thousands of other unlisted videos from before 2017 (including Spumwack's episodes)). I can also confirm that Kiershar does still have access to his UKposts channel because in late last year he unlisted his Hermitcraft Battle Royale videos.

The final "mistake" I want to point out is at 25:15. IAmSp00n actually did play on the server a bit longer but these were all exclusively livestreams. The only thing I know he did during these streams was the construction of his base which was a glass window in the side of a partly hollowed out mountain. (Fun fact: Spoon was actually removed from the Season 2 whitelist when the Hermits moved to New Hermiton (same time as several other Hermits like VenomKisser) due to inactivity but he requested to be rewhitelisted not long after and was re-added.

The hermits have stated multiple times that no one was removed for inactivity

@@spookidoxzsghost In the past they used to actually. As I said I have proof that players like VenomKisser were removed due to inactivity (my proof is of Xisuma explicitly saying that inactivity was the reason they were removed)

Except that psycho one.

@@dewaldsteyn1306 To be fair, in those kinds of situations it's not uncommon for the abuser to deny it and it just turns into a he-said-she-said that becomes even worse for the victims, if it really was as cut-and-dry as the video made it seem. There's at least some good in admitting your mistakes and urging people to believe your victims.

I’ can’t see why people are up in arms about that whole thing, it was a funny prank and heck it wasn’t even that elaborate he could’ve gone all out on it but he kind of just did a one day troll thing.

@@JBBrickman I think he went a bit far, but having watched enough of his videos I know him better than to assume he was being petty. He was just being silly and thought it'd be a laugh, Genny's always been a bit of a troll. It was in good-faith.

It feels like an older man not understanding the significance of the internet, in no way do I think he meant to "scam kids". The Hypno tweet especially rubs me wrong, seems like some Hemits gave Generik some perspective and he understood his mistake pretty quickly. If they talked it out in DMs prior he would of had the same apology without any of the speculation or drama.

It absolutely was petty,@@KingTaltia, but one can hardly blame him when every stream was being hijacked by obnoxious milk-drinking booger-eaters demanding to know when he would be on Hermitcraft and if they could join the server.

Funny cause I didn’t know about dmac until pooping evolved

Funny enough Dmac was the person who introduced me to ark instead. I never even knew he played minecraft until i saw one of his old Lets play videos in my recommended. Pretty crazy how one person can have such a varying and diverse impact on people :D

It’s been so long but I’m like 90% sure he introduced me to it too in season 3. I remember watching a single player survival series he did and loving it so I wouldn’t be surprised if I found HC thru that too 😅

amen, that was incredibly scummy of him

I'll be honest, I would have disagreed with the decision not to let me as the founder of the SMP back on the server, too. It feels a little odd to not let the founder back in only a few seasons after he left just because he had been on a minecraft hyatus. However, the way he went about it with this dumb pranks left him in a very bad lighting and prevented the Hermits to ever overthink their decision.

​@@MaryGershwindo remember the reason for his denial to return is only speculation. Nobody knows why Generik wasn't allowed back, accept the involved patties

​@@MaryGershwin It's worth noting that from my understanding, the original Hermitcraft SMP was a very different entity from what it is known as now, and the reason Generik originally left was because he was basically ready to end the SMP. Hermitcraft as it is today, at least IMO, is FAR more a creation of Xisuma and the other Hermits who stuck around and developed it into what it has become, rather than the original founder who left when it was in a decline.

@@magellan6439Based off of what he has done in public, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was because he had previously been a negative presence in private.

rip

i suggest you this thing called hermitcraft recap. its a team which makes videos about hermitcraft without being members, they are just fans. in earlier season (from season 4), they were critiziced for making videos mainly about bigger channes like mumbo&xisuma but glossing over smaller channels like zombiecleo&joehills and format was later changed so they do small tldr of EVERY hermits video of what happens between friday-friday, so if you dont have time for some reason and want quick recap, just watch it. but still you get full video by wathing each hermit invidually. It also explains why some hermits paid very close attention to this pixlriffs fella during s9 rift event.

and even the abuser seemed extremely tame from how this video layed it out. encouraged people to belief victims instead of denying it entirely. he personally felt somehow tamer than Generik just based on how this video layed it out, not sure if abuser did even bigger things. his apology felt geniuine and feels like every apology should be like that and just left entirely instead of vanishing for couple of months and then returning silently. He may have just started different channel with voice changer but who knows, at least he started fresh. Fly high TFC.

Honestly, I got chills when my name was mentioned too lol. It was so long ago and I was (sadly) so inactive on the server, I'm surprised I got a mention!

Definitely check out his city skylines videos. didn't even know he was once in hermitcraft before i saw this videos, but his cs1 and cs2 videos are very relaxing and impressive
