8 years ago I was still floundering about on the end of 6th grade playing Spore Galactic Adventures trying to become a relevant adventure creator. skip ahead to the following summer (mid summer 2011), and I finally play Minecraft for the first time.
Spring 2012, and I finally join Blocktopia for the first time, having found the A&T server via Spoutrcraft (which had falsely labelled it as Legends of Primordia) when looking for a new server to call home after the recent death of Freebuild Dude to the hands of insufficient donations.
However, I still had not fully joined the community until much later, and early summer 2012 when A&T went down, I temporarily migrated to a collective of Survival Games servers.
Then my cousin brought me back here the following Autumn to show me Buildbox, and here I still am.
