I got 10€ in store credit because they couldn’t send it normally for some reason. (Really small amount but still a bit sad.. at least I didn’t donate to the server.)
I was actually a staff member at one point on MineClub, I have very fond memories from the server but at a time when I was a teenager without needs and plenty of money from my job at the local grocery store I ended up spending roughly $1,400 on the server in crates because I had genuinely developed a gambling addiction due to the "wagering" system that they had included in their server and my feeling of FOMO for having missed out on the beta and trying to claw as many "Beta Hats" as possible with many highs and lows but ultimately every time I would lose it all and ended up leaving when the server had a slew of controversies due to the higher up staff members actions.

Awesome video dude. Seeing not just a Mineclub video, but also from you was quite the surprise. I was a regular on that server so I have a LOT of extra info, so this is a looong comment but I figured I'll leave some more info for anyone that's interested because why not: As the video said, everyone was immediately drawn to the server due to having MCC games. Millions of us watched those insanely unique, polished, fun games in MCC and could only wish we had the chance to play it ourselves one day... and then well, we could. After the first few months though, Mineclub started to expand past just being an MCC clone. After having 3 MCC games (Battle Box, Slime Walls aka Hole in the Wall, and Parkour Tag), they added Laser Tag, a completely unique game, and they held a Discord stage. In those moments, the server shot up to the highest player count it had ever seen, it was around 3.8k. 2 or 3 months later they released their 5th game, Dodgeball. Held a stage for that too, the server shot up to around 3.5k. This was in September 2021. After this point, the overall hype as a whole started to die off a bit, but the general core playerbase remained, especially when they added their own version of Housing in October/November of that same year. The community was VERY tight-knit, and very committed to the server. The server had its own economy and marketplace, and these very exclusive cosmetics called unobtainables, which only a few thousand of each item existed. That may sound like a lot but it really isn't, which made each one of them extremely valuable and people would grind the market for those unobtainables, including wagering in Match 5 (which was literally gambling lol). This was all further amplified with housing. At first it was quite basic but some months later it had a LOT of custom stuff. You could place hundreds of the cosmetics that existed, and then they added gameblocks, special blocks that gave special effects you could make really cool stuff with (teleportation, blindness, glowing, etc). Throughout several months people would host events in their housings and give away millions upon millions upon millions of items worth of gems (the server's currency), or just gems straight up. There was a lot of replay value. I could go on and on about certain things the server had, and what was planned but I won't, because the Mineclub iceberg is insanely deep, all of this is really just scraping the surface honestly. Things really started going down with Nixe's overpromising. Throughout 2021 and early 2022, he would claim all sorts of things would happen, most famously, that they would release a brand new game every single month (at a later point he said every single week), and that they would push out their huge marketing budget of $250k (later apparently became $1m) and get many more people in the server. I also remember much earlier in 2021 he said he was extremely confident the server would have absolutely blown up and have 50k players by the end of the year. Obviously, none of this happened. He kept saying and promising things, giving everyone hope and hype, and for a while everyone believed him, because why wouldn't we? The server did have a lot of potential, and what they had made so far was extremely cool. But, all those promises just never happened. All the while updates pushed to the server were very slow. Which ties back to Joey. For some reason this was almost never talked about by anyone, but this was always my greatest concern for the server by far (and my fears ended up being justified), the fact that they had just ONE guy developing the overwhelming majority of the stuff for the server programming-wise. I never understood why Nixe did this. It's not like he couldn't afford more devs, and it was incredibly inefficient. Understandably, many people just got sick of waiting for updates that never came and started to depart in droves. The server had already lost a lot of players, but when Nixe began to get exposed for things in mid 2022, that really sealed the deal. The reputation of the server had never been in a worse place, and a large chunk of the remaining, active community quit immediately. This even included dozens of guides (helpers basically) and mods that were on the server and invested so much time into it for well over a year. I decided to stay and see what would happen because I was curious, and on the off chance that the server ever makes a comeback. Interestingly, a month or 2 after the stuff with Joey, Nixe actually finally hired multiple more devs, but it seemed as though there was nothing going on. From then and up to November, very little happened, and then the server shut down. To be honest, even with everything that happened, the server COULD have still been successful and absolutely changed the multiplayer game. It really did have so much potential, what they had built and what they were planning on turning it into was seriously impressive, but it was all just executed so poorly. Most say the server was a scam, in some ways it certainly was, but much much more, it was the greatest waste of potential in, literally, all of Minecraft history.
You know the server had 3 Devs? Way before the issues with Joey and Alex, There was Freus & Mason who both worked on things, Ferus was in charge of Housing and Tabletop games, Joey and Mason worked on core network functions bits and Mini games. I believe
@@BlueNinjar Yeah I do remember Ferus. I didn't know he did Tabletop, I remember being told that he worked on Housing and Housing only, and that Joey did basically everything else. Though I don't remember Mason. I'm assuming he was in and out of Mineclub even earlier than when I joined, unless I really did just somehow miss him lol
@@FlashCrimson "The greatest waste of potential in Minecraft history" is a perfect description. From 0 players to 4,000 in months... that doesn't just happen with any ordinary server. And yet, they fumbled it so badly they had to shut it down less than a year later
the thing is, even with nixe performing scams on the developers and the players, there were so many other issues with the server that involved an admin being an actual pedophile, another admin making irl money bribes/bets with minors, and transphobia the social concept of mineclub was great and i had many memories to gain from it, but the management and it's issues were enough to make everything fall further and further down; it was fun while it lasted hanging around most of the staff team and creating huge events, but it wasn't made to last - Former Moderator/Housing Lead
W I got referenced 😂 Real talk, Nixe is the worst person I’ve ever met. Emotionally abused and manipulated me personally for years. Despite everything I tried giving him the benefit of the doubt for a long time and it only hurt more in the long run. As a 16 year old at the time, I didn’t understand the level of what was wrong with everything. At the expense of my own mental health I continued supporting him despite everything he did to me until the end of the line & even then he still blamed me personally for the server failing.

Y'know I was invited to this, visited it, people offered me NFTs and stuff to be involved so then I never touched any communication with it at all again.
I didn't expect people to remember this server. I remember playing this back when it was new, but then I quit Minecraft for a while. I came back a few months ago and tried looking for the server, and when I finally remembered the name, it was not online. I thought it had shut down because everyone moved to MCC Island, but it was for a worse reason. What a waste.
Was a staff there for a year and two months and then got kicked out of the staff team without a word or warning 👍 Otherthen all the drama I met some amazing people who i still talk to to this day.
I got mine taken away for no reason too 😗 I don’t talk to anyone from there anymore but it was definitely favoritism going on in the staff team, I was a server favorite but the entire staff team hated me
This server broke my computer I was playing it and then I’m guessing the texture packs caused it to overheat and destroy many core functions within the computer fun fact
I never would have expected to see a video about MineClub after all this time. I remember watching the server lose popularity due to countless dramas. The crazy thing is, I actually saw it being destroyed with my own eyes. Despite everything that happened, I truly miss it. For me, it was, without a doubt, my favorite time playing Minecraft. I made so many friends there, and I even recognize a lot of people from the community in the comments. It brings back so much nostalgia. I wish the server would make a comeback, though it feels so unlikely. - Former staff member (AKA ChickAstley), still holding on to my profile picture from the MineClub era.
@@MxMarszal That seems to be a pretty common sentiment - for all its flaws, Mineclub had a great community that a lot of people miss. There's a revival server called Clubmine being worked on though which might be pretty fun!
im glad someone is covering this, as someone who played their scam of a server 🙏 I remember in owner calls they claimed they had hundreds of thousands of dollars in crypto that they were personally investing into the server, and the server was visually beautiful, but there were so many empty promises, lies, and drama. im disappointed its gone but also kinda glad.
Great video! Although I wish you would have covered the beta calls where he would outright lie for money and the scummy staff recruitment which was essentially a loyalty pact for players (it forced you to interact in chat and play for hours every day.)
still incredibly conflicted about my time there, huge upside is that i made a bunch of positive memories and even some friends from the community, downside was what happened behind the closed doors and being completely oblivious as a young teen even with the red flags i see a couple times a month. i feel lucky i havent been hurt as badly as others but there are quite alot of people who had their trust betrayed alongside seeing some having gambling problems at 13-15 because of the server. i make fun of a friend for that, but in the very least he didnt spend actual money on it, i've seen a few people who've spent thousands on the server. its weird how this specific server is the only one that drags me back with bitter nostalgia. i feel happy seeing names i recognize in this comment section, hope yall are doing well for yourselves
It's sad how this is only one of many scams that are happening. this is one of the most common scams you can possibly find for minecraft and Zach sure af didn't help.
I remember wanting to play on this server for so long but i had a bad pc so i couldnt even download the texture pack for it, then when i got a good pc the server had like 3 players and i couldnt play a single match :/
i remember this server. back before chat reporting was ever a thing, i was searching around for parkour servers, and i somehow ended up on Mineclub. i even remember when the timer for when the server would launch went into the negatives
I was hated by the higher ups i was trying to be a staff member but i only needed 3 recommendations by staff and i got over 20 but they didn’t want to and they delayed me being staff for months then when i asked about it they said i wanted staff just because the role and kicked me out of the program all together
Being an effective leader isn't just about having a good idea, it isn't just about giving instructions, it's just as much of a give as much as it is a take. To see who truly is a good leader, give them power, you'll quickly see who breaks under the pressure, and who can pull their team through to the end and on to prosperity. Sometimes a good leader plays the follower, and listens to those they lead, not just give them orders and deadlines.
i was one of the first players on Mineclub, I never knew why the server got shutdown till today and it sucks to hear. Mineclub was really a One of a kind server, with all the cosmetics, the games, the economy & the wholesome community I just don't think there's gonna be a server like it again. RIP Mineclub, F nixe
BRO I REMEMBER YOU FROM 6 YEARS AGO LMFAO, I knew MCBYT sounded so familiar, I knew you in bedrock factions that's actually so crazy lol, good to see you where you are at now
Imagine being a millionaire and not paying your developers for the work they've done, that's fucked up. Just imagine if he wasn't an a-hole, scammed the people who worked on the project, it'd probably be bigger today then it was before, what ashame.
Learned it myself, though I do occasionally use tutorials for an effect I don't know how to do - I learned the Matrix effect (turning a video into green outlines filled with animated code) and bump maps from tutorials for example. I don't think anything in this video was learned through a tutorial though, just many years of trial and error :p And I've still got a lot of work to do! I see videos from creators like CalebIsSalty or LEMMiNO and marvel in awe sometimes, haha
I played this server a lot a while back. The only thing that was keeping me playing is the friendly community. I hated everything else about the server, more than half of my playtime was in hub.
Mineteria.. I hate that I played that server. I remember good things, sure, but also staff corruption (such as when my friend got banned twice just cause they wanted too and when that same friend applied for staff and got in but was chastised for their mental health issues. :( ) and meeting pedo’s and such on there.. wasn’t fun. Those who never played, be thankful you never were there. It’s for the better.
i just played for the mcc games and then saw it shut down one day. i had no idea the drama around it i wasnt on twitter or anything. its sad to see a fun server go down because the owner was problematic. well at least theres mcci now so we can play the minigames officially.
Holy shit...I haven't watched the video yet but I'm shocked to see mineclub mentioned anywhere again. To my knowledge it just went down due to some petty drama
I remember this server was an MCCisland alternative for people who didnt get info beta tests yet (i played mineclub for like 2 weeks and then got info MCCisland)
I regret ever modding for that server lmao horrible horrible place people who abused their powers and higher ups that acted like children, ay glad to see people atleast enjoyed the wiki & archive though
Oh my God now that right there is not the best way to own a mini game server . That is way too far. He needs to pay the developers but do the work himself. Because they do a lot making plugins
Ahh... so that's what happened to Mineclub... I used to play Annihilations there bc it was like the most popular server for it at the time. Kinda sad all of this happened later
No disrespect to Joey but the actual scam the server should be known for is constantly trying to lore people into applying for staff by making it a requirement to have the paid "premium" subscription to apply, it's genuinely insane they had custom GUIs, a place in the lobby, and ads everywhere trying to get you to apply for staff. This video is like 10 mins of research
You can consider that somewhat scummy, but it's not a scam, and it's not as weighty as the many people scammed out of thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.

im glad someone is covering this, as someone who played their scam of a server 🙏 I remember in owner calls they claimed they had hundreds of thousands of dollars in crypto that they were personally investing into the server, and the server was visually beautiful, but there were so many empty promises, lies, and drama. im disappointed its gone but also kinda glad.
Great video! Although I wish you would have covered the beta calls where he would outright lie for money and the scummy staff recruitment which was essentially a loyalty pact for players (it forced you to interact in chat and play for hours every day.)
Yeah, I learned about the staff recruitment methods from Vygo. This video really does just scratch the surface, the Mineclub iceberg goes DEEP
20 hours in a week i think was what you needed to pass trial phase (not including the other things needed too)
@@sold6952 you also were not allowed to talk about the requirements or you would get kicked from the program.
Not what I was expecting to come across today 🤣, Glad my footage could be used for something!!
who else thought it was minemen club
Me
how
@@germantrycsminemen club has kinda shady history
@@bluealt4936 no shet but not on the thumbnail nor the title it said anything abt mmc
minemen is a completely different type of server, how
still incredibly conflicted about my time there, huge upside is that i made a bunch of positive memories and even some friends from the community, downside was what happened behind the closed doors and being completely oblivious as a young teen even with the red flags i see a couple times a month.
i feel lucky i havent been hurt as badly as others but there are quite alot of people who had their trust betrayed alongside seeing some having gambling problems at 13-15 because of the server. i make fun of a friend for that, but in the very least he didnt spend actual money on it, i've seen a few people who've spent thousands on the server.
its weird how this specific server is the only one that drags me back with bitter nostalgia.
i feel happy seeing names i recognize in this comment section, hope yall are doing well for yourselves
Dude make a video about Mineteria. The behind the scenes was intense...
It's sad how this is only one of many scams that are happening. this is one of the most common scams you can possibly find for minecraft and Zach sure af didn't help.
Really appreciate you putting so much time into your videos
OH MY GOD HAHAHAHA I MADE THAT MEME IN 11:39 I LOVE THIS
no way that's you LMAO
@@grqqn very accurate meme
I remember wanting to play on this server for so long but i had a bad pc so i couldnt even download the texture pack for it, then when i got a good pc the server had like 3 players and i couldnt play a single match :/
i love when you click on a site to check it out and you cant do anything without giving it your credit card i hope it fails
great production quality
appreciate it chief 🫡
i remember this server. back before chat reporting was ever a thing, i was searching around for parkour servers, and i somehow ended up on Mineclub. i even remember when the timer for when the server would launch went into the negatives
Ogs remember Desteria
Fan why are you on here
@@hitmaka2777 ??? mf u here too
Fr
Who is Desteria????? :o
We can’t be doing this 😭
"we dont suck, we quack"
until now, I have never heared about mineclub.
i feel like Origin Realms had more of a hand in revolutionizing Minecraft servers a bit more than Mineclub, though both did that in different genres.
The owner of origin realms and nixe created the genre together because they previously owned a resource pack server together
@@duckonetwo5886 PigzRule (IGN) btw, but they both contributed towards significant changes in Java MC history.
only ogs had the easter hat and title
I see MCBYT, I click MCBYT
I think I joined the server once when it came out, no idea this whole thing happened.
I was hated by the higher ups i was trying to be a staff member but i only needed 3 recommendations by staff and i got over 20 but they didn’t want to and they delayed me being staff for months then when i asked about it they said i wanted staff just because the role and kicked me out of the program all together
I've never heard of Mineclub, and I realise why. I was part of the first wave of people to get into the Closed Beta for MCC Island.
Being an effective leader isn't just about having a good idea, it isn't just about giving instructions, it's just as much of a give as much as it is a take. To see who truly is a good leader, give them power, you'll quickly see who breaks under the pressure, and who can pull their team through to the end and on to prosperity. Sometimes a good leader plays the follower, and listens to those they lead, not just give them orders and deadlines.
5:06 we got something polish here

Crazy part is that two servers with custom stuff in Java released around the same time. Origin Realms being the other.
@@GonzoStudioz Oh wow, I completely forgot about Origin Realms!
@@mcbyt origin realms is actually crash now. They’ll have Arther in it by the end of the year!
So less a scam and more not paying people for work...COMPENSATION/PAY FRAUD.
i was one of the first players on Mineclub, I never knew why the server got shutdown till today and it sucks to hear.
Mineclub was really a One of a kind server, with all the cosmetics, the games, the economy & the wholesome community I just don't think there's gonna be a server like it again.
RIP Mineclub, F nixe
Mineteria needs a whole seperate video ngl
BRO I REMEMBER YOU FROM 6 YEARS AGO LMFAO, I knew MCBYT sounded so familiar, I knew you in bedrock factions that's actually so crazy lol, good to see you where you are at now
Imagine being a millionaire and not paying your developers for the work they've done, that's fucked up.
Just imagine if he wasn't an a-hole, scammed the people who worked on the project, it'd probably be bigger today then it was before, what ashame.
This is actually so high quality for a video with only 2k views. Wonder if you learned editing yourself or watched tutorials.
Learned it myself, though I do occasionally use tutorials for an effect I don't know how to do - I learned the Matrix effect (turning a video into green outlines filled with animated code) and bump maps from tutorials for example. I don't think anything in this video was learned through a tutorial though, just many years of trial and error :p And I've still got a lot of work to do! I see videos from creators like CalebIsSalty or LEMMiNO and marvel in awe sometimes, haha
can't believe minecraft didn't have any servers until 2021, truly unbelieveable
@@SwitchyWitch_ fr, so crazy
12:41 Bro just ragdolled to death.
Every day I miss Mineplex more and more and more...
I played this server a lot a while back. The only thing that was keeping me playing is the friendly community. I hated everything else about the server, more than half of my playtime was in hub.
Mineteria..
I hate that I played that server. I remember good things, sure, but also staff corruption (such as when my friend got banned twice just cause they wanted too and when that same friend applied for staff and got in but was chastised for their mental health issues. :( ) and meeting pedo’s and such on there.. wasn’t fun. Those who never played, be thankful you never were there. It’s for the better.
Either the staff did complenty nothing, or was dumb, or was corrupt lol
love your vids bro, been subbed to you since a long time, keep up the great work! ❤
I remember playing mineclub back in early 2022, good old days
I remember that server! I used to play there sometimes, even had the Beta tag
damn I loved playing this back in the day
i just played for the mcc games and then saw it shut down one day. i had no idea the drama around it i wasnt on twitter or anything. its sad to see a fun server go down because the owner was problematic. well at least theres mcci now so we can play the minigames officially.
Used to play Mineclub since it was one of the only servers to offer parkour tag as a minigame
Really unfortunate it fell apart
"Roleplay" and "kid-friendly" don’t belong together in the same sentence.
Holy shit...I haven't watched the video yet but I'm shocked to see mineclub mentioned anywhere again. To my knowledge it just went down due to some petty drama
I remember this server was an MCCisland alternative for people who didnt get info beta tests yet (i played mineclub for like 2 weeks and then got info MCCisland)
oh im pretty sure i got banned from their discord for soundboard trolling lmao
I remember playing on it. Didnt kmow it went down like that
dude this is wild i've never heard about this
Man I remember playing this server, there ui and textures where nice on the eye, crazy it was a scam
12:57 he’s scamming kids on roblox now :)
Tell me more
Tell me more
Wait I remember playing on this server once but stopped because it was too confusing for me.
I regret ever modding for that server lmao horrible horrible place people who abused their powers and higher ups that acted like children, ay glad to see people atleast enjoyed the wiki & archive though
Being staff for this server was nice until I realized it wasn't just a kids game anymore.
you really got me there i could for sure use some skillshare right now lmfao, great vid btw
@@icecream5793 haha thank you thank you :)
wonder what his reasoning might've been
Portal 2 stream when
Perhaps one day, will consider it. I don't like it as much as Portal 1 though (don't kill me)
Oh my God now that right there is not the best way to own a mini game server . That is way too far. He needs to pay the developers but do the work himself. Because they do a lot making plugins
i played Desteria as a kid wow…
this server gave me a gambling addiction
@@yakub888 lovely
i have never even heard of it
I did not expect to see another mineclub video, let alone my dms of me trolling nixe to show up in it at 12:05
@@Ballnose you know i had to do it to 'em
Ahh... so that's what happened to Mineclub...
I used to play Annihilations there bc it was like the most popular server for it at the time. Kinda sad all of this happened later
I like my cheese drippy bruh
5:09 ITS POLISH!
ogs remember the invadedland days
No disrespect to Joey but the actual scam the server should be known for is constantly trying to lore people into applying for staff by making it a requirement to have the paid "premium" subscription to apply, it's genuinely insane they had custom GUIs, a place in the lobby, and ads everywhere trying to get you to apply for staff.
This video is like 10 mins of research
You can consider that somewhat scummy, but it's not a scam, and it's not as weighty as the many people scammed out of thousands or tens of thousands of dollars.
9:10 what shader did you use there and with what motion blur please?
@@Csudibtw Sildur's Enhanced Default :) I don't use motion blur - I record in 240 FPS and resample to 60 FPS when I'm editing the video, which gives it a nice motion blur :)
Never heard of this server
Seeing this thumbnail gave me PTSD
@@NIBBLES vietnam flashbacks
a great video as always MCBYT!
Holy shit Mineclub that was so long ago
i miss this server so much (i'm nostalgic)
If i was him, the server would be a multi-billion dollar buisiness by today (no joke)
Played on Desteria for years ; -;
Same it came back after being offline it’s extremely dead tho
Wait he had a hand in Mineteria? The one that the MCFNAF GLG guys and their friends promoted and stuff? Shoot, wouldn't have guess that. I've heard some crap about Mineteria from them. Kinda not surprised the next thing he made also turned horribly
Man did I make some great memories on that server
skillshare sponsorship on a “scam” video is bold
True
@@BARLOWES4PRES haha true, i can tell you skillshare's not one though for sure. genuinely a useful service and i'm really happy they reached out - i actually used some of their classes on there to start coding a custom plugin for my server :)
