I'm curious, since we are 1/12th year in 2016, I decided to make a poll.
I best most people here playing on our servers are from 2012/2013 year.
People from 2011 still being active are mainly (>90%) from zombie survival, right?

I also added tongue in cheek descriptions in polls.
These descriptions are guessed opinions of this community by players, who joined in given year ;^)

I can't even remember at this point.
Your forum profile says in mid 2012, so definitely it was 2012.
Like, 2009/2010
I thought all 2010ers and 2009ers are all extinct now. Any cool tales about old times, same with Naterger and chaoticbinary

Dat 2011ers strongly dominating poll. Now I see why someone said, that our community is aging. They all are now 5 years older.

Didn't Mikey have that big thread/file that had join dates of alot of people?
Can you show me it?

what was the year with the smp with CTY in the desert and DGH with the spawn beside a pirate ship?
2014. There indeed was CTY in desert, it had glass dome, and was near my clan. It was Dusk of Discordia.

Indeed. http://blocktopia.net/forum/threads/blocktopia-join-dates.11683/

I'm also fairly sure this isn't the first time raxo himself has made such a thread, but I can't find any, so that might not be true.
Nice, but I do it about every year to see player drop out/in. Not all people on this list are active on forums/community now.

Nah, a lot earlier than that, i was in 4th class so think it might've been 2012
So it would be Vanilla SMP then.
There was a lot of drama at spawn, do you remember SBG going batshit crazy at end of Vanilla SMP?
SBG was close at spawn. Some guys from here enjoyed that location for constant action, and others hated it for being raided.
TBH Vanilla map was restarted 3 times, what I said was on last map here.

Also I noticed you joined forum in 2014 year: Joined:May 31, 2014

Trap_Wolf Vatowski 2016 really? don't ruin my poll :p

For those who who forgot what year you joined (just like me.)
Here is a list that davidjl123 compiled a few years ago. (Please note your name might not be on there) https://docs.google.com/document/d/1IkcA8_JBVmwPae15juTAVppe1G15moVSk3uVh2U6CQ8/ (I'm an idiot. The thread that this doc is posted on, has already been linked to already)

I myself, joined way back in August of 2010 before we changed our name to Blocktopia. So yah, I have been here a long time.
It was kinda funny when I first joined a Blocktopia server, not knowing there was a name change, all I could think is that it was a rip off copy of TheOnes servers.

So you are classic guy. How SMP in 2010/first half of 2011 looked like? Were there plugins? I know, that 1Koakuma1 stopped selling kinks in SMP 3 spawn (I spent too much time at SMP 3 spawn, that one before primordia).
SMP 3 was here, when I came to Blocktopia in June 2011 and got premium in August 2011.

Edit: I collected join dates of our staff in one place:

I think I arrived during 2010. All I know is that I popped into Classic Zombie Survival on a friend's Minecraft account, Amoriea, and loved playing on the server so much. I was eventually recommended to check out the forums by Jowe, and I soon became a Zombie Op after that.

Those times were full of mindless fun, I'd have to say. Not sure I'd want to go back, though. xD

Lol, may you elaborate on this?
um basically it was classic build comp and xrat was building his usual esoteric eldritch crop circles thingy notch pops in looks at the comp he sees xrat build and starts flipping out about being so creative with such a limited palette and then leaves


sorry for any spelling mistake/grammar um 45 hours awake kinda make me a lobotomized goldfish apparently...

Not necessarily as we got the new forums in August 2011, although it is likely. I thought Oak had been here a lot longer, to be fair.

I joined March 2011, and it was pretty rad. I'm sorry for everyone that knew me then though, I was a pain in the butt.

Mostly things involving staff drama. Other than that just the good old fashion fun that used to go on in 09/early 10

Staff drama was present in 2011/2012 too :)
If it happens, then I always miss it now.

And by fun mean staff goofing around and plenty of puns/jokes, then it was heavily present in 2011/2012, when you were gone.
Later not so much, as community got less popular.

It was awfully a lot of it in Classic Lava and SMP clans, where lava guys were present.
Lava itself is pretty boring server by itself - all you have to do is build afk box, everything else is optional.
So lava brought chatty/sociable/cooperative type of people.
Other servers... not so much, as there were much more stuff to do, like chasing/blowing/killing people or digging diamonds.
