The Brutal Downfall of Minecraft's Most Popular SMP - Mindcrack

In this video, I talk about Minecraft's earliest popular SMP, how it started, how it rose to fame, and how it died. Minecraft is insanely popular, but what was the most popular Minecraft SMP? Anyways, I hope you enjoy!

NOTE: This video is not meant to spread hate to any of the Mindcrack members or anyone in general. This is just a documentary I made for fun in my bedroom.

Not the most accurate retelling of the history of Mindcrack. Etho didn't leave because of burnout. Regardless, a nice trip down memory lane.

This is actually pretty good. Kind of surprised you mentioned about the reasoning of the "mindcrack is changing" post. Most people skip over that part.

I would have mentioned that mindcrack the group is still around and does charity Livestreams all the time. The server is about to get reset for season 10 of mindcrack.

Good video! As someone who used to watch basically every Mindcrack video back in the day, I think another factor is that many members stagnated in terms of video quality. If you look at the Mindcrackers who are still popular today you'll find that they've improved a lot in terms of editing and storytelling in their videos, while the ones who still upload but get a lot less views than they used to still make videos the same way they did in 2012

I feel old, you would have been a baby. It must be so weird seeing HD Internet content from when you were a baby, I was born in the 90s when online content was almost non existent

Man I used to watch Mindcrack along with the Yogscast and rooster teeth (Tower of Pimps gang)

Etho, BdoubleOO, Beef etc., all of them owe so much to Guude. Don't watch any of them, ingrates.
