@minesy What...? That doesn't solve anything..

-

@LittleOwlet3 Are you using a texture pack or is this full default?

Mark this day in history, because for once Sharp and I agree on something. :P

All good points, imo.

@Cileklim I like that. A good compromise, imo.

@Dennari43 The way you said that gave me an idea...

What if rather than a standard arena area, this hypothetical 1v1 arena was more of a walled-in piece of nature? Rather than flat ground there could be hills, perhaps a few drops, lava, water... More like open-world PvP, but contained within a box.

@Retrochewy

Tfw when you explain something over and over and people still wonder about it...

I don't like grinding for god sets. It bores me. Yes, I have a couple pairs I could wear if I wanted. But why risk losing them to a bad fall or an elytra glitch or a random zombie swarm? I wear iron because that's easily replaceable and still keeps me alive for what I use armor for.

I also have a ton of elytra, as I enjoy end city raiding, but you don't see me wearing those often either. Do I have enough that I could risk wearing them all the time and lose one pair? Yeah, but why would I? My iron suits me fine. If I need to fly, I'll grab an elytra, but I don't wear it everywhere.

There are plenty of people who prefer to wear NO armor most of the time, but you don't see them being mocked. Just because I lead a faction doesn't mean I have to go about things like most people do, nor does it mean I have to do specific things to show my wealth (which I'm not interested in, anyway). NN has never been based around power or glory, it's always been about having fun and meeting new people and hopefully making the server a more enjoyable place.

To wrap it up, you're not the first who's mocked me about it, and you won't be the last. I could care less whether you think I'm rich or not, regardless of the fact that I do own multiple god sets. Mind your own business. :P

Although I'm not into PvP, this sounds like an epic idea. The Arena we already have is certainly a bit more dangerous and random than fighters might like.

@SharpSerac Nerd Nation has now begun the process of copying the way that Team Eye does things. They realize that we are the superior faction since we don't get raided every other week and are now changing their ways to try to catch up to us (which they never will).

I wasn't aware TE was invite-only, but okay :P

I'm getting tired of replying to your troll comments. Maybe I'll just stop... Might hurt your obviously needy self-confidence, but it'd also prevent a lot of drama.

Hm. Sounds like a good idea to me. I'm not answering your ridiculous statements anymore, but have fun taunting people to get a reaction.

@OtherGreenGamer

First, @NerdieBirdieYT

Despite this being a troll comment, I think you unintentionally hit a good point.

Nerdie. You could have just made a thumbnail in usual style without making Humfry look like he was falsely accusing you (Literally pointing a finger... or blocky nub. You get the point). He legitimately thought he had proof of you saying you were faking stuff for views. Framing it, perhaps unintentionally, in an obviously biased way (Showing primarily negative comments and tone, implying that our skepticism is blaspheme. Perhaps not the intent, but that's how it came off) makes it seem he has a point. When you posted the video you DID know people were going to watch it for the drama, it's foolish to claim otherwise. You know that arrows, faces, and vibrant colours in thumbnails tend to give more views, because putting an arrow in 6/27 of your Craftymynes based videos would seem odd otherwise. Faces in all except 2 of your server based videos. And vibrant colours in all of your server based videos. Explosions tend to get more views, along with capitals too, Cliff hanger esque titles, large words. I could go on and on. I refuse to believe that all of this is coincidence.

This is why stereotypes exist. They have basis in truth.

Controversy gets more views.
Every youtuber wants views, but those that hunt for views and to grow do the things I stated. I don't think there is anything wrong with this, but you can't say you aren't view hungry. Most Youtubers are.

These videos and links DO brush on my points atleast once.

Second, @humfrydog

It is very petty of you to report his video. Nerdie did not violate any law or policy in U.S law or Youtube policies. Your evidence (atleast the first) is proven false, and the second remains unfalsifiable. Your point may stand, but your base argument is moot. I can say without a reasonable doubt that Nerdie did not leak his coords, with the evidence provided. It is inaccurate to say that Nerdie ONLY cares about views. You don't hold blame to the proof being false, HOWEVER, you do hold blame how you handled it after it was proven false. IMO you reaction shone you in a bad light.

Conclusion / TLDR

While Humfry has a point that Nerdie seeks to get views and grow through thumbnails, titles and the content within those 2, he is inaccurate about Nerdie only caring about views and is IMO petty for filing a privacy report which is false just to annoy him.

P.S

Sorry Juju and Dawn <3

*sigh*

Of course I use vibrant colors and such. It's what works on YouTube. Why wouldn't I? Every YouTuber wants views, just as every author wants their books read, and every show producer wants people to see it, and every toy maker wants their toys to sell well. There's nothing wrong with that.

Humfry DID accuse me, falsely or not, and that's all I was pointing out. An accusation was made. That's what the thumbnail represents.

Again, lots of you are making this way bigger than it should be. Drama happened on the forums. I, as a YouTuber, made a video simulating it. I blamed no one. I harassed no one. So stop taking this wildly out of proportion and making either humfry or myself to be a villain.

After tonight's meeting, NerdNation has decided to lock its door. We are now an invite-only faction, meaning there are no applications and no asking to join. Instead, we will reach out to you if we'd like you to join.

@goofygirl313 Applications are currently closed. NN is meeting about applications and such tonight. Whatever the case may be, I'm sure Discord will be a requirement.
