videogamesm12 (historically known as VideoGameSmash12) is a Senior Admin, Developer, Forum Moderator, Discord Administrator, and Interim Owner. He is notable for his dedication to the server, community, and history, having played on the server for nearly 10 years.
History
2013 - Humble Beginnings
On October 30, 2013, Video joined the server for the first time[1] whilst looking for the popular YouTube influencer SkyDoesMinecraft. Although fascinated by the concept of a free-op server, he was banned on several occasions for breaking the rules, which led him to create an account on the ProBoards forum on November 4, 2013.[2]
2014 - Rise Through The Ranks
In early 2014, expressing a desire to become a Super Admin, he decided to improve his behavior in order to gain the favor of staff members at the time. He began to excessively praise current staff members, to the point where he even built statues of their Minecraft skins on the server. Some appreciated the ego boost, but others figured out rather quickly what he was trying to do and called him out for his behavior.

Despite this, his attempts proved to be successful as JJ_Jaguar2000 picked him to become a Super Admin under the Telnet Picks a Super policy on March 24, 2014.[3] Despite the application not being formally approved, MashedPtatoz added him to the Super Admin list less than an hour after the the application was created due to the nature of the policy.[4] The application was formally approved and closed the next day by Finest95.
Almost immediately after being added to the admin list, he was trained on the basics by other admins who were online at the time. While being tested on certain scenarios, he was soon after scolded for using punishment commands on other admins who were testing him, though the staff members involved quickly came to his defense but suggested that he smite himself instead of other admins.
