    “A slur to deter people from using it” but not you, you are still using it, intentional slur and all. 🤨

    If it’s ok for YOU to use it with the slur, why exactly would anyone ELSE feel deterred? Especially when you are still displaying map art by OTHER people with slurs too? Doesn’t seem like slurs in general are really that much of a deterrent.


  • @BeAware@social.beaware.live

    I mean, you’re talking about having to hide your base, displaying mapart with slurs, and taking people’s ‘secret’ stashes including stuff left at spawn that could conceivably help others (regardless of how it was produced)

    You yourself may not be taking that outside of that server but it’s still toxic behaviour that is being normalised

    I’m on another server that’s really community centred and usually pretty chill, but there’s one guy that spent a lot of time in places like 2b2t before us and he’s super annoying and hard to work with because of all the toxic shit he absorbed and shitty coping mechanisms he developed. It kinda sucks and while yeah “HISTORY” and “lore!” And etc but i kinda wish that damned server would just die so less people grow up thinking that it’s normal/acceptable

    Hah!

    There’s a really nifty web app that you can just plug images into and it will convert them to the proper size and pick the right blocks for the colors.

    Then you can just convert that into a schematic to follow. I don’t think I could do map art without the schematics - as I am very fond of saying: I can’t count in minecraft 😅

    I love map art so much!
    On my family’s server last season I did a whole bunch of actual art as map art for the museum we built.

    Then I made a giant glass platform over the void in the end so I could make graffiti.
    (A map taken of the end void shows up as ‘clear’ or invisible once placed in the world, so you can still see the blocks behind it)
