Hello everyone,

I’m writing today to bring attention to a matter that has impacted me for quite some time. It’s a situation that I believe deserves broader awareness, particularly concerning what I see as unethical and monopolistic practices within the Minecraft Marketplace. My intention is not to incite conflict with Microsoft, Mojang, or major Minecraft companies, but to highlight what I believe are significant injustices regarding user-generated content on Minecraft and to share details of an ongoing legal dispute that I feel the community should be informed about.

For nearly four years, I have been engaged in a legal conflict with Microsoft and eleven other Minecraft related companies who aim to invalidate my intellectual property and exclusive trademark rights to Skyblock.

The companies involved include: Microsoft, Razzleberries AB, Sapphire Studios LLC, Aurrora Limited, Easy Games, Inc., Jigarbov Productions Inc., King Cube LTD, Ziax Ltd, ReWrite Media, Inc., Mineplex LLC,...

The moment you’ve all been waiting for is finally here! We’re thrilled to announce the grand opening of Groundblock, the newest addition to our family of servers. Get ready to dive into a brand-new survival experience, one that’s grounded, exciting, and packed with endless adventure!

Global Updates - March 29th, 2025

• Updated all servers to support Minecraft 1.21.5 clients.
  
  Note: Our main server version is still 1.19.2, please report any new bugs or issues.

Forums Updates - March 25th, 2025

• Added around 65+ new Emojis to the forums, an additional 20+ will be added soon as well.
  
  The categories for Emojis have also changed. Previously we had a "Smilies", "Emojis" and "Emotes" category.
  
  As our original Emojis from when the forums launched were within the "Smilies" category, this has been moved to a new "Nostalgia" category instead, while the previous "Emojis" and "Emotes" was merged with our new set.
  
  This was just a quick forums update as the Emojis were always rather confusing. If you have suggestions for any other new emojis we should add or any other ideas, let us know!
