Back in 2015-16 I played on a couple Minecraft servers that were popular back in the day which were Hypixel (still popular), MunchyMC, and Mineplex. Sure miss playing the maze runner game mode.
First community was AMM - strictly a HL2DM server which I was also staff for. Small community but lots of giggles. The good ol days where I lived off of free games cause I was a broke ass mofo. First TTT community was Conjoint Gaming. Probably the best TTT community I was apart of during the old school times. I know some people of SGM came from CG before.
Casual bannana's Jailbreak. they ran for a while got bored and sold it to a guy named JAC then JAC gmod was a thing for like a year and i was mod on it 1 month before it was shutdown. I at least made it into the Elite GMod Jailbreak Players group.
A TTT, murder, prop hunt, and COD community called Forgotten Soldiers. After some of the upper administration started fucking around with the servers all of the gmod servers went down. Apparently they were trying to bring it back two years ago but that died /shrug
I used to play on their COD WAW server recently but for some reason the playerbase for it died so now i dont have a WAW server
Back in 2010 and early 2011, I played on a Minecraft server called Minecraftthis, which was eventually renamed to Pitforge.
My first ttt server was something like Backstab ttt. Idk what happened after I stopped playing GMod but it’s down now
First gaming community was a little one called Paradox Equinox. Our whole forums was run on steam and we had 2 servers. 1 24/7 Minecraft and the other was modded. We had 5 maps show up in our map vote and we had around 6 maps that would go through rotation. I made it to the admin position on those servers but left due to my first trial mod phase here. I still have one of the owners phone numbers of that discord.
