**EthanAnimatez SMP** more commonly called Ethan SMP or ESMP was a Minecraft Server by EthanAnimatez, hosted by the SMP Team now known as Event Team, which consisted of 7w1 & Fourteen Walker, now known as Adison. The SMP had 3 seasons, a 1.16 Vanilla world, a 1.12 modded world, and a 1.16 custom map world. Due to a growing concern of lack of moderation and lack of commuity interest, Mangement opted to discontinue the project. The SMP would remain in limbo for a while until being turned off by 7w1/Adison.

What version of Minecraft was Ethan SMP hosted on? Ethan SMP was mostly a Cross-Platform server that supported both Java and Bedrock Players.

## Season I

Launched at 11pm EST on November the 2nd, 2020. The first version of Ethan SMP was a vanilla world (not minding the data packs that administration used). Season 1 would conclude on Xmas Eve 2022. The original rules prohibited griefing, bullying, acess to the End Dimension and cheating. These rules were quickly broken and ignored by both the community & SMP administration. There were little to no means to enforce said rules due to the non-existent moderation team.

What happened on Ethan SMP Season 1? Mostly anarchy, war and technical difficulties. A few major settlements were created and with them a few Major Teams, most notably Ethan's Team, Derd's Team, & DJpurpleflame's Team. Smaller groups like the Scottish Union did exist but ceased to exist later in the SMP.

### Spawn Region

The Region known as spawn housed many landmarks on Ethan SMP, Many examples of cheating, and many memories of death and slaughter. By the end of Season 1 the immediate area of Spawn looked like anarchist server.

##### SunnyTubeHD's & Ryguy's Cave

Though itself not very notable, the cave was the scene of a world glitch, In where part of the map was duplicated and deleted. This error would leave a permeant scar on the map.

##### The Arena

Records of it's construction have been lost to time, though we know it was built in creative mode. On the same shore as world spawn, it held many of PVP events that many members spectated and participated in. Here is a list of known people who were involved in the Arena: Lurkerlily, TurtleThinks, Tragoncita, SunnyTubeHD, Plwd, Toucan, DJpurpleflame, EthanAnimatez, Dragon.

#### Spawn Town

Located on a lake near a taiga biome, Spawn Town was a consolidation of starter bases. This is where the community began and where the SMP would conclude. This Town would include **Town Hall**, **The Theater**, **Trigo's Lava Cast**, **Pilot's Tower**, etc. The following quotes are goodbye quotes found near Town Hall.

```
"Hi, I am JustinSUF. and this is my goodbye message. First, I wanna say Thank You for the fun & crazy times we had. It was amazing meeting you guys and playing on the smp together. We started wars, made teams, became freinds, it was amazing." -**Justin SUF**

```

```
"This is TurtleMaster88. I had fun in town, I think everyone did." -**Turtle Thinks**

```

```
"This is Xyu. Today may be my last on the SMP. It's gotten boring and over..." -**Xyu**

```

```
"This is Shattered, This is probably my last day on Season 1. I'll be there for season 2. I just wanna say, Thank You." -**Derd/Shattered**

```

```
"Thanks for the wars, the TEAMS! One last, thing. watch out." -**SL**

```

### Hermit Town

Founded by Turtle Thinks, Hermit Town was the settlement founded near the end of the SMP. It included members like Turtle Thinks, SunnyTubeHD, Derd, Ryguy.

### Ethan's Manor

A creative rebuilt structure that is based on a Woodland Mansion which happens to be the home base of Ethan's Team. You might question why there's so much creative mode happening on a SMP, but this is what happens when a bunch of 13 year old's try to run a Minecraft Server.

## Season II

Launched on the 24th of December 2020, it was supposed to be something new. Many believed it was the wrong direction to take the SMP but others believed in the idea. Season 2 would bring us Custom Enchant Books which in hindsight were very overpowered. It would continue the age of cheating and Admin Abuse, as well as continuing the habit of running away from spawn and settling thousands of blocks away from each other. More blowing up bases and wars. The lack of moderation had still not improved. It was also the only Season to not be hosted on the latest update, being hosted on 1.12.

## Season III

Season 2 would end on April the 25th, 2021 and with that, the start of Season 3. A new world, fresh from chaos and war... oh wait it was all blown up and burned like the last two. Oh well. Season 3 had promise at its start though, after the chaos of the last season many had hoped for a peaceful world to play Minecraft on, our hopes were destroyed on the second day as war quickly followed. This would cause much of the Older SMP players to leave the SMP for good as many realized the circle of drama that was bound to unfold. The SMP would lag on until August 6th, 2022 when the SMP Channels were shut down by mangement due to inactivity. We would like to dedicate a word to **Ender Dash** who kept playing to the very end.

Ethan SMP would help create the modern Ethan Commuity as it merged old with the new. It ended a era but also started a new one. Created divides and mended rifts. It created memories and lessons that would never be forgotten.

**Also:** If you are reading this and now want to start a SMP, please get moderators and power checkers. Don't repeat our mistakes.
