Story time with Awesomeboy!
I was playing Minecraft with some friends 3 years ago, and they told me to get on Manacube Survival. I joined their party and I started to get really into it, so I left my friends' party and made an underground base ;D. This was in season 4 and after playing for a while, I got invited to another party. I saw that they had a few good things and builds so I decided to join. That party went inactive and I ended up joining a new one and that one also went inactive.
I finally found an active party, but then season had reset and I hoped to be able to continue playing with that party. It was season 5, and we played for around 2 days and our leader was very inactive, so I decided to try to "overthrow" the party by leaving and inviting all the active people. It worked, but the person that was leading the party with me found that doing this was too stressful for him, so he quit. I had gotten a free rankup paper from someone who had promised me that they would give me one and I was very grateful for that! After that, all my other party members quit and I decided to quit too as there was nothing for me to do.
About 6 months later, I was playing on other PVP and parkour servers, I decided to come back and talk to some old friends (the ones who remembered me) and there wasn't much so I decided to just log off. I kept coming back and decided to start playing again. I wanted to try and get to VIP+ because I already had VIP from the rankup paper. I was buying cubits and someone had scammed me! I made a ticket and got the person banned along with the money returned.
I wanted to try and get some good armor so I decided to start making diamond armor with full enchants including ces. I had no idea where to get ces though, so I decided to start asking around in chat!
@Sonic_Raptor been playing 23.5 hours a day at the time, so he dmed me saying that he had a shop at warp ce and he gave me some enchants for free! I saw that he was in one of the top parties and wanted to join because I was interested in learning more about survival. To my surprise, I joined Hyrule. In that whole season, I had built builds for Hyrule (crazy amirite?!?!?!?!) and also worked my way up from VIP to MVP+. I went inactive for a month or so because it was boring for me, but luckily reset came!
At the reset announcement, I saw that there were a lot of plans for Hyrule for season 6. I decided to help out a bit and invited a friend of mine to play with me. They said yes and joined Hyrule and I grinded like 10 hours a day for a whole month at the start of the season. First, I had bought ELITE for 3b. Then I started collecting season vaults. I built farms for Hyrule and played minigames almost every night with the party. Now I'm still in Hyrule and I've been in the party for 1 year now!
I'm supposed to be doing homework but I typed this instead
TDLR: Friends told me to play, I played. I joined like 5 parties then quit. Joined Hyrule late season 5 and I am still playing now ;D. I continue to play because I find it really fun to just talk in chat, discord or play minigames with friends.
