'''Punisher Town''' is a settlement founded by {{User|punishergames}} on March 16, 2024, on the [[RetroMC (server)|RetroMC]] Minecraft server.
'''Punisher Town''' is a town on [[RetroMC (server)|RetroMC]] made by {{user|punishergames}} on March 16th, 2024.


== History ==
== Early History ==


=== Initial Development ===
=== The First Members ===
Shortly after its establishment, the town welcomed its first member, {{User|SomeBMWdriver}}, who constructed the first base. Early growth accelerated with the joining of key contributor {{User|Krispy453}}, who significantly shaped village infrastructure. His projects were later enhanced by {{User|Grassboii}}. Other early members included {{User|flemwaddle}}, {{User|mozzysdong}}, {{User|ospence5}}, and {{User|raikonenn}}. Both {{User|ospence5}} and {{User|raikonenn}} were temporarily banned due to rule violations (x-ray and griefing); {{User|ospence5}} has since been reinstated.
There was not much activity for the first few days, but then a guy named {{User|SomeBMWdriver}} would become the first member and would make a base.
The next member to join would be {{User|Krispy453}}. He would be a massive part of the development of the village, working on several builds. Areas he previously worked on would be further improved by {{User|Grassboii}}.


A significant disruption occurred with the banning of {{User|Krispy453}}, who vandalized the village and posted inappropriate signage. Subsequently, {{User|Grassboii}} took over the assistant role and initiated major renovations, including improvements to the castle and agricultural facilities.
Other members, such as {{User|flemwaddle}}, would be added, and he and {{User|Krispy453}} would become assistants of the village. Other members added during this time include {{User|mozzysdong}}, {{User|ospence5}} and {{User|raikonenn}}. Unfortunately, {{User|ospence5}} and {{User|raikonenn}} would be banned due to x-ray and griefing. ({{User|ospence5}} has since been unbanned.


=== Internal Conflicts ===
{{User|Krispy453}} would have a mental breakdown and get banned from the server. It was a big hit knowing one of the biggest contributors of the village would do what he did; he would put the n-word on a sign and betray the village by attempting to grief the cross he helped build. It is still a shock to see what he did, and it will always be a bad point in the history of '''Punisher Town'''. He was replaced by {{User|Grassboii}} as assistant, and would be frowned upon since. 
Multiple internal conflicts impacted the community:


* '''The Trans Flags Vote:''' A vote occurred regarding the display of transgender pride flags within village limits, resulting in approval with a 3-2 vote.
After {{User|Krispy453}}'s ban {{User|Grassboii}} would work on renovations, the castle itself, and the wheat farm would be renovated by {{User|Grassboii}}.


* '''Incident involving {{User|Waddleboney}}:''' Formerly a trusted community member, {{User|Waddleboney}} was expelled after committing griefing acts, resulting in a temporary server-wide ban.
=== The Trans Flags crisis ===
The first major drama would happen when trans flags started being built around the village. Some people felt it was too political, while others felt it promoted inclusivity, so people were split on if they should be allowed, and in a historic 3-2 vote, it was decided that trans flags would be allowed in the village.  


* '''Removal of {{User|RitzKid76}}:''' {{User|RitzKid76}} faced expulsion for advocating punitive measures against the town founder.
=== Waddleboney ===


* '''Incident involving {{User|flemwaddle}}:''' After threats of destruction toward a major village monument, {{User|flemwaddle}} was removed from the village.
{{User|Waddleboney}} was a trusted member of the village and worked on some minor projects; however, {{User|Waddleboney}} would grief the village, putting purple and black wool everywhere. As a result, {{User|Waddleboney}} was banished from the village and would quickly get temp-banned from the server.


* '''Leadership Transition:''' Following these incidents, {{User|punishergames}} withdrew from daily management, assuming an advisory capacity.
=== The betrayal of RitzKid76 ===
{{User|Ritzkid76}} was a member of '''Punisher Town''', until he would tell the owner of '''Punisher Town''' that he should be banned from the server; as a result, he was banned from the village for treason.


* '''Conflict with {{User|SvGaming234}} and {{User|Krissofer}}:''' A dispute involving {{User|SvGaming234}} led to severed relations with him and subsequently with {{User|Krissofer}} and his village [[Avalon]].
=== The betrayal of flemwaddle ===


* '''Reinstatement of {{User|punishergames}}:''' After a brief hiatus, {{User|punishergames}} returned as the active leader, appointing {{User|PartiallyCrafty}} as assistant.
{{user|flemwaddle}}, an assistant of the village, would go crazy, threatening to destroy the cross he helped build, so {{user|punishergames}} was forced to ban him from the village.


== Notable Structures ==
=== Punishergames exit ===


=== The Cross Monument ===
After all this {{User|punishergames}} would decide to exit '''Punisher Town''' as an active owner; he would still be in an advisory role; however, he is no longer running '''Punisher Town''' day to day.
Initially erected by {{User|flemwaddle}} and {{User|Krispy453}}, this 16:1 scale cross included contributions from {{User|Amyv1}}, {{User|marioboyrc}}, and {{User|AYoungJew69}}.


=== Sky Island ===
=== The betrayal of SvGaming and krissofer ===
Previously a controversial sculpture existed atop the wheat farm, replaced following administrative intervention by former admin {{User|thecow275}}.


[[File:2024-04-10_16.55.25.png|thumb|Sky Island replacement]]
After the {{user|flemwaddle}} betrayal, {{user|punishergames}} got into an argument with {{user|SvGaming234}}. They ended up cutting all ties, with {{user|SvGaming234}} leaving '''Punisher Town''' and banning {{user|punishergames}} from [[Cactus]].
As it turned out, {{user|Krissofer}} was not happy after the drama with {{user|SvGaming234}} and {{user|flemwaddle}}, as he felt {{user|punishergames}} was in the wrong, so he and his village [[Avalon]] cut ties completely with '''Punisher Town'''.


=== New Spawn Building ===
=== The return of punishergames ===
On April 30, 2024, a new spawn facility was introduced, featuring an updated welcome board and basement displaying banned community members.

after over a month of being gone, {{user|punishergames}} would return as leader of the village, he would also add {{user|PartiallyCrafty}} as assistant.

=== Door Locking Vote ===
== Buildings ==
A village referendum determined policies regarding locked doors for private residences. Initially tied at 4-4, the vote ended 5-3 after {{User|flemwaddle}} reversed his stance, allowing door locking practices to continue.
=== The cross ===
{{User|flemwaddle}} and {{User|Krispy453}} (who wasn’t banned yet around this time) would work on a 16:1 scale of a cross with contributors including: {{User|Amyv1}}, {{User|marioboyrc}} and {{User|AYoungJew69}}.


=== Memorial Controversy ===
=== Upside down T ===
{{User|piilvi}} constructed a controversial memorial for banned member {{User|ospence5}}; as a result, {{User|piilvi}} was expelled from the community.
 
There used to be a dick on top of the wheat farm; however, former admin {{user|thecow275}} deemed it to be inappropriate, despite the fact that there where other upside down Ts on the server, he asked the village to remove this one specifically, so it was replaced with a sky island. 
 
[[File:2024-04-10_16.55.25.png|thumb|Sky island]]
 
=== New spawn of Punisher Town ===
 
The old welcome board of '''Punisher Town''' was ditched on April 30th, 2024, being replaced with a new building serving as spawn with a welcome board inside a cool-looking building, with a creepy basement showing banned players.

[[File:newspawn3.png|thumb|The basement including a list of banned players]]
 
=== The legendary locking doors vote ===
 
Certain people started to get concerned that people should not be allowed to lock their doors. The reason for this is that people could exploit it, and tons of rule-breaking could follow. Some people also thought it was unwelcoming and made the village look bad; however, some people felt that their freedom was at risk because of this potential rule change. A 24-hour vote was held, and it was thrilling back and forth until it was tied at 4-4 with less than an hour left. However, in a big twist, {{user|flemwaddle}}, an assistant of '''Punisher Town''', who initially voted that it should not be allowed, changed his vote to saying it should be, which made it 5-3, and locking doors were voted to be allowed.
 
=== ospence5 memorial ===
 
During the time that {{user|ospence5}} was still banned. Some of the '''Punisher Town''' members felt like {{User|ospence5}} should’ve been memorialized, so {{user|piilvi}} made a memorial for {{User|ospence5}}, however, most of the '''Punisher Town''' members were disgusted, and it was decided to execute {{user|piilvi}}, and {{user|piilvi}} was banished from the village for treason.

=== Punisher-Beetopia Railway ===
=== Railway from Punisher to Beetopia ===
A railway connecting '''Punisher Town''' to its ally, [[Beetopia]] (led by {{User|jcheese7}}), was constructed collaboratively by {{User|punishergames}}, {{User|SvGaming234}}, {{User|flemwaddle}}, and {{User|jodie_x33}}, with railway infrastructure provided by {{User|mithkal}} and {{User|Amyv1}}.
 
'''Punisher Town''' would start work on a railway connecting the town to one of its allied villages, [[Beetopia]], led by {{user|jcheese7}}. This bridge would be built by {{User|punishergames}}, {{User|SvGaming234}}, {{User|flemwaddle}}, and {{User|jodie_x33}}. The railway over the bridge would be built by {{User|mithkal}} and {{User|Amyv1}}.

=== Dirtocean project ===

=== Dirtocean Land Expansion ===
The famous screenshot was taken with {{User|marioboyrc}} and many others in collaboration with another village. It was a big moment in '''Punisher Town''' history as it marked the first time '''Punisher Town''' was recognized by the masses of the server.
Inspired by similar server projects, the Dirtocean initiative expanded available building land by covering an oceanic area with dirt. Led by {{User|punishergames}} and supported by {{User|SvGaming234}}, the project eventually housed a town hall (built by {{User|punishergames}}) and additional pixel-art structures (created by {{User|partiallycrafty}}).
Also around this time {{user|punishergames}} the owner of '''Punisher Town''', would make a Punisher skull build and it would become an emblem of '''Punisher Town'''.

This would get fixed, however, this gave '''Punisher Town''' free publicity, and {{user|punishergames}} and '''Punisher Town''' became forever a part of '''RetroMC''' lore. (For more info about this event, see [[The Broken RetroMC Spawn]].)

=== Spawn Glitch Incident ===
=== The 1st Punisher Town election ===
Due to a temporary server glitch (coordinates '''X:10843, Z:12417'''), '''Punisher Town''' briefly served as the official spawn point for new players. This incident, documented extensively in [[The Broken RetroMC Spawn]], significantly increased the village's visibility on the server.


== Political Activity ==
The famous 1st '''Punisher Town''' election would take place, and {{User|Grassboii}} would win 3-1 against {{User|flemwaddle}}, and {{User|Grassboii}} would be the first mayor elected by '''Punisher Town'''.


=== First Mayoral Election ===
=== The 2nd Punisher town election ===
The inaugural mayoral election concluded with {{User|Grassboii}} winning against {{User|flemwaddle}} by a 3-1 margin.


=== Second Mayoral Election ===
The 2nd primary election would start as only 1 vote was cast in the primaries, with that one vote being for {{user|SvGaming234}}; so it would be {{user|SvGaming234}} vs. {{user|Grassboii}} in a historic blowout; {{user|Grassboii}} would lose to {{user|SvGaming234}} in a triumphant 5-1 blowout; and {{user|SvGaming234}} became the new mayor of '''Punisher Town'''.
A subsequent election resulted in {{User|SvGaming234}} defeating incumbent {{User|Grassboii}} decisively by 5-1, thus becoming mayor.

Punisher Town is a town on RetroMC made by 16.png punishergames on March 16th, 2024.

Early History

The First Members

There was not much activity for the first few days, but then a guy named 16.png SomeBMWdriver would become the first member and would make a base. The next member to join would be 16.png Krispy453. He would be a massive part of the development of the village, working on several builds. Areas he previously worked on would be further improved by 16.png Grassboii.

Other members, such as 16.png flemwaddle, would be added, and he and 16.png Krispy453 would become assistants of the village. Other members added during this time include 16.png mozzysdong, 16.png ospence5 and 16.png raikonenn. Unfortunately, 16.png ospence5 and 16.png raikonenn would be banned due to x-ray and griefing. ( 16.png ospence5 has since been unbanned.)


16.png Krispy453 would have a mental breakdown and get banned from the server. It was a big hit knowing one of the biggest contributors of the village would do what he did; he would put the n-word on a sign and betray the village by attempting to grief the cross he helped build. It is still a shock to see what he did, and it will always be a bad point in the history of Punisher Town. He was replaced by 16.png Grassboii as assistant, and would be frowned upon since.

After 16.png Krispy453's ban 16.png Grassboii would work on renovations, the castle itself, and the wheat farm would be renovated by 16.png Grassboii.

The Trans Flags crisis

The first major drama would happen when trans flags started being built around the village.

Waddleboney

16.png Waddleboney was a trusted member of the village and worked on some minor projects; however, 16.png Waddleboney would grief the village, putting purple and black wool everywhere. As a result, 16.png Waddleboney was banished from the village and would quickly get temp-banned from the server.

The betrayal of RitzKid76

16.png Ritzkid76 was a member of Punisher Town, until he would tell the owner of Punisher Town that he should be banned from the server; as a result, he was banned from the village for treason.

The betrayal of flemwaddle

16.png flemwaddle, an assistant of the village, would go crazy, threatening to destroy the cross he helped build, so 16.png punishergames was forced to ban him from the village.

They ended up cutting all ties, with 16.png SvGaming234 leaving Punisher Town and banning 16.png punishergames from Cactus. As it turned out, 16.png Krissofer was not happy after the drama with 16.png SvGaming234 and 16.png flemwaddle, as he felt 16.png punishergames was in the wrong, so he and his village Avalon cut ties completely with Punisher Town.

Upside down T

There used to be a dick on top of the wheat farm; however, former admin 16.png thecow275 deemed it to be inappropriate, despite the fact that there where other upside down Ts on the server, he asked the village to remove this one specifically, so it was replaced with a sky island.
