This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Went on to play a few months ago with mates, all 4 of us had accounts deleted. Wtf, why wasn't it an automatic process...

[–] Takios@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 1 week ago

Yep, same here. Absolutely unacceptable behaviour

A corporation removing content someone explicitly paid for is just insane, especially when it only happens to specific people

Piracy wouldn't delete your account

If you just want to do singleplayer Java edition, last I checked you can use MultiMc to launch with no account.

Still some bullshit even for those of us who transferred our accounts. We were supposed to get access to all future versions (and it was at least heavily implied that meant across different platforms) with our single early purchase.

The amount of aggravating bullshit Microsoft introduced made it so I dread when my daughter asks if I can get it working for her, despite having bought it once as an OG, and at least once since. Badly tarnished maybe the game of a generation or era of gaming imo.

I fortunately came back to Minecraft during the grace period. Sucks that there was a limit at all.
