PLEASE KEEP THIS IN MIND:
we, as fans, do not have a right to private information. anything shared with us on this is a privilege. please do not abuse it. the cc's could shut down and never talk about it if we overwhelm them.
also, please keep in mind that ONE HERMIT and THE ENTIRETY OF HERMITCRAFT are NOT THE SAME THING. the entire fandom is not 'ruined' or 'completely unsafe' because of the actions of one person.
PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME THAT THE OTHER HERMITS KNEW ANYTHING ABOUT WHATEVER'S GOING ON WITH ISKALL. this is not some big conspiracy, it's the consequences of one person's actions. they weren't hiding this from us, that's not how hermitcraft works, they truly didn't know. they probably knew as much as us about this, so making it an 'us against them' situation is immature and shortsighted.
mcyt'ers being revealed to be less-than-great people is not a rare thing, sadly, but i've seen it turned into a joke/meme/trend in other fandoms. this both minimalizes the actual people's/victims' struggles, makes the entire situation feel less serious than it is, especially to outsiders looking in, and makes everyone in the fandom look immature, petty, unable to take anything seriously, and genuinely harmful.
this server, fandom, and community are not dying, it is not ruined forever, this is one (major, i'm not trying to minimalize it) issue that we're currently dealing with. it will be okay. we will move on. this is not the beginning of the end. please calm down. i love this fandom, god bless all of you. <3
edit: doc has said on stream that we will likely get more information as time passes. like i said, this is a PRIVILEGE. we are not OWED information. please be grateful for what we're given, and POLITELY ask questions if you must. if a cc doesn't give you the answer you want, or doesn't answer at all, LEAVE THEM ALONE. THIS IS NOT AN EXCUSE TO HARASS PEOPLE. the hermits are likely just as stressed out as us, if not probably more so, so please keep that in mind when contacting them.
don't freak out, we'll be okay, this is not the end of the world, nor is it the end of Hermitcraft. we will be okay.
second edit: please remember that (at least as far as we know) ISKALL AND STRESS WERE NOT KICKED OR BANNED. THEY LEFT OF THEIR OWN VOLITION.
PLEASE DO NOT ASSUME ANYTHING SIMPLY BASED OFF OF OTHER MCYT'ERS PAST ACTIONS/SCANDALS. WE DO NOT KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. WE MIGHT NOT EVER KNOW EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED. WE NEED TO BE OKAY WITH THAT AND NOT DRAW OUR OWN CONCLUSIONS.
I JUST GOT INTO MY DREAM COLLEGE LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Etho: "Mumbo, can you convey emotion? Like, can you sound angry or happy or anything?"
Mumbo: "RAHHHHH! GRAAAAH!"
Etho: "OK, he's excited, he's excited."
Mumbo: "No, I'm angry!"
Joel - mania
Keralis - left handed
Etho - his setup
Mumbo Jumbo - has physicaly tied himself to his desk with safety wires in order to unlearn thumb-shifting. Seriously what's up with that

I don’t care that some of these are repeats some things that aren’t broken don’t need to be changed.
Dude this fic is heart wrenching 10/10
bubbling up definitelynottober - day 6
from god in pieces by @raichett that i read a day or so ago. hi this fic made me feel fucking sick /vpos (and when i read "bubbling up" i just. eyes widen. i can commit crimes with this)
I know we're all freaking out about the current drama, mainly because we haven't really had drama before. However, this does not mean its over, our fandom is dead, and we're all doomed.
This is a classic case of immature behavior. Iskall's response, in MY OPINION, was very immature. He directed hate towards the hermits, who were just being responsible in managing a family friendly youtube server (and who were also willing to listen to his side). If he hadn't made a response, there would have been no issues within the community at all. The hermits handled it in the same way any business would. If anything, they could've waited a bit to announce his resignation from the server.
That's not the situation I want to talk about though. So many communities have fallen due to drama between creators. However, we do not have to fall that way. All we have to do is remember that people are not perfect. The hermits could've handled the situation better, but they also aren't gods. They are public figures in a sticky situation.
Don't hate guys. Don't send death threats. The drama isn't ours. Keep making fan content as usual. Let's show the world that we can get through a youtube controversy.
It doesn't have to end with us.
Stay strong guys
(tagging trafficblr & VH too bc the fandoms overlap)
