I like Arch because I have some very good friends and also killing eagler kids is fun.

Enter me,

Arch MC started for me as a fun game, but now I have gotten more serious about it, and I have made lots of friends along the way.

Enter me,

I love the staff here they are always supporting us 

and I also like the drama

i like arch cuz it reduces stress

Enter me: _Format333_

First time i logged on, it was 100% cuz of eagler and its free mso i just randomly gave it a try. First i just played some kitpvp but then found out about ls, so just randomly started trying it out. Same as every noob, i just went out of spawn and fell into the cpvp zone, 2secs later when i came back to get my loot i got slaughterd, the third time i died of fall dmg, 4th time finaly got my loot and got slaughterd at spawn. Then i just rtp'ed and built a small base, got some vote loot and grinded up to 20hearts. after that alot of bs happened including my base got raided 19 times (not even kiddin) but 1year later (now) i got a base with some nice gset ebook vills and got a nice ltl clan (WAKE) wich im an OG member and mod, i also got some shulkers of gsets and started a gset business. 1mounth ago, i bought a 5M blocks out end tp and built a cac farm. now my latest project is prob hitting 35M and building an eman farm.

oh i also wanna mention that my original main was Format333 (no underscores) but ive rage quit cuz i got killed 2mins after i got my 1st ever gset.

Enter me. 

Arch is still good, even after all the downs, there's always and up. So do Arch. We all wish you the best in your irl and hope you get far in the future. I don't know you very well but i heard you are a good and nice person. Hope you get a good live :)

something about archmc:
i am an og lifesteal player who has seen everything - from betrayals, the constant teamming, message spam, fights, etc.

the one thing i would like to share with u is - the one thing i tell every one of my friends, teammates, allys, even randoms in chat:

dont quit

u can take breaks, play less, if u got more important things going on

but i have so many friends (20 pages on /friend list) that it feels sad that i dont see most of them online like ever

quitting just demotivates ur friends, leaves an empty hole in their heart which u had fillies

the moments are gone, the memories gone, the friendship gone

its hard to move on

plz dont take this as being against u and removing me from the giveaway - im just saying i dont want anyone to quit, even if it means i have to (thats lowk cringe xD)

not my enemies

not my teammates

not my clanmates

not even randoms in the chat

so dont quit

ever

When I first joined ArchMC, I started with my friend to build a nooby base (because we were both noobs) during school in september 2024. It started up as a quartz shack, but me being who I am, I kept on building until it was a monstrosity of creation. The land was called HiPickle and took me 3 months to build. During that time, I was an unranked nobody called PicklePlum, and I had made many friends and barely any enemies. The first person I started helping that I didn't know was a person called The_Goat12377333 and he was a nice guy who made a shop called TawHeed. When I went exploring, I would bring things that I found for him to sell. Eventually, Zarif was asking for suggestions for tags, so I suggested the [touchgrass] tag and it got accepted. I submitted a ticket asking for the tag for free because I contributed to the creation of the tag. And Zarif actually gave it to me! Later in December, when the end of the year was approaching, I created a simple land called TouchGrass for the fun of it, and it practically became a big square block base of stained glass and wood. Before this, Monica had released /enchanter and all the p2w enchants, so I was trying to obtain at least one of every dust % available (I didn't fully complete it) to sell in my shop. The reason that my account isn't PicklePlum anymore, is that I accidentally added my school email to it. When that happens, you can't confirm or take it off of the account, so I had to make a new one with a valid gmail. When the mass money wipe thingamajig was approaching, I drastically made profit off of selling diamonds for drastic amounts of money. TheImfamousGamer also felt pity for me when I was unranked, so he gave me an epic rank when I asked for one in the forums. I had won his giveaway, but some errors in inputing names for the wheel spinner made it so I didn't actually win. TheImfamousGamer later on gave me Legendary rank (I was grinding EXP levels at somebase btw at the time). Later, on his birthday, he was extremely nice and generous (thank u infamy) and he gave me 15 creds to buy all the rank upgrades, and that's why I have all the ranks (ur so nice infamy tysm!!!). Fast forward to 2025, I grinded drastically on my sword levels and miner levels and started trying to become a millionaire on my own. I had a vacation to Aruba irl in march before my birthday, so I was offline for a week. I started up HiPlum with my friend Hi_iH (which is the friend I talked about at the start) and even though he barely goes online (because he's on the rice server a ton, breh), he's still a good friend. I've known Hi_iH irl for 9 years of my life and we are best friends, so it's nice to have someone you know help you build and talk to in game! I was feeling nice to some people, so I gave some people some of the new pets, such as dragon, ghost, and more! Raider99 was one of the people who received a pet, I gave him a level 99 dragon one. I started feeling nice, so I mined a ton of diamonds (because I have W mining luck fr ngl) and we made a total of over 40 netherite gsets together! He quit for like 2 weeks, so I was mining all alone for a long time tbh. In may, I started using my java account, Popseeko123, to mine under y level 0, and I found a ton of cool stuff, tons of spawners, skulk cities, random skulk sometimes, amethyst geodes, deepslate diamonds, and even 2 deepslate emerald ores (which I silk touched of course :D). I made a total of $2 million dollars all by myself all from mining in may, and my goal as of right now is to buy kingmc_'s Nandaka Veil for 2.5mil, so I'm saving because I want the power of flight! My time on ArchMC was really fun, this was barely what I did, but it was what I had to sum up because it's way too long. Sorry that I didn't include you in this story voxel, you've done too much for people that it practically isn't possible to say every good deed you've done :D.

Dear Arch, thank you for providing me with a fun way to pass time at school. lol

Somehow I still got good grades XD

Pls enter me voxel

Enter me,

I am a recently joined player. Arch is genuinely a really good server with lots of friendly people although people can be ignorant if you don't have a status or reputation on the server.  I play arch mainly for all the friends I make. I am an introvert in real life but whenever I hop on Arch I let my soul and passion for Minecraft really reveal. My motivation for playing arch is simply because it's fun. There are endless possibilities with this server. You could grind money to buy expensive gear, host giveaways, make a base, make an xp farm, or simply just socialize with your fellow Arch citizens. Currently, my latest project is to run a successful zombie farm and shop that can be open to the public. I recently got my hands on 2 zombie spawners on /ah for a decently good price, and I'm trying to make a functional and fast xp farm for everyone to enjoy without worry. Additionally, in my xp farm I am going to be opening shops for food, tools and ores. I'm getting some of my irl friends to help out but I won't be as of right know due to finals, (yes, I know that most people have already finished school, but I live in New York and for my school, I end on June 26th with the last day of classes being June 16th, due to finals). I am extremely stressed out for my biology Regents exam as I am currently taking the Living Environment science class but they are completely changing the format of the regents exam and changing the name to Life Science: Biology. It's the first time that they are offering this exam so I hope I don't do that bad. I know the format is very different, and there will be more reading prompts with context clues in the prompts to help you write a reasonable answer, instead of studying and answering lots of multiple choice questions based on your prior knowledge like the previous Living Environment Exam. Sorry for writing a lot I just genuinely love to talk. 

Best,

Enter me,

I play ArchMC because of its fun gamemodes that they serve to players. I especially love bedwars because its really fun and easier to play. My project right now is basically just grinding stats on bedwars, cause i really have nothing else to do. (ArchMC bedwars is easier then hypixel bedwars so i play on Arch more… hehe) Thanks!

I came to Arch a few years ago alongside retrowave/extras because we were bored one day. This was already past Java account migration (if you don't know what that is just look it up) so my premium account was already gone. I created this username randomly without putting much thought into it; as I thought I'd just play this for a couple of hours and move on. Boy, was I wrong. 

Since I had never really played on servers prior to Arch, it was a completely new experience. I loved survival, and I kept playing it. So did retro. We racked up lots of hours, and prior to the playtime reset, I had around 180h on survival alone, not counting other gamemodes I played a lot, like duels. In total, I have over 325 hours of playtime on just survival. The reason is that the community and the friends I made keep drawing me back to the server. 

Even after I do inevitably buy another premium account, I will keep playing on Arch. I will obviously branch out to non-cracked servers, so my playtime will taper, but as long as I still have friends here, I will continue playing. Thank you again Voxel for doing so much within the community. 

Don't enter me, I just wanted to share this :)

archmc has been my favourite minecraft server for so long, not just cause the games are fun but because the people make it feel so welcoming. i started this server when i was grade 5. our skl basically blocked every minigame website like poki and crazy games and we were so bored. then my friends recommended minecraft and i was like how can placing blocks and digging stuff be fun (we were playing survival singleplayer). i remember thinking that it was so boring just playing our own game so i went online and searched for some servers and found arch mc. we started building shtty bases and trying new games like bedwars and hunger games and kitpvp etc. i mostly play bedwars now when i want some fast matches and survival when i feel like it or when the teacher is being annoying and constantly walking behind me. 

another thing why archmc is rllyyyy good is how there's always a ton of people online—no matter what time i log in, there's someone to team with or just mess around with.

whether it's meeting new friends or teaming up with the ones i've known forever, archmc always has great vibes. some servers feel dead or too tryhard, but here there's always a crowd, always something happening, and always someone down to play. it's the kind of place where you can just hop on, do whatever, and still feel like you're part of something cool. theres also some unique features on the server like how u can buy tags on the beta server and stuff like that. ive never seen hunger games on other servers (even tho it prob exists) and i enjoy playing it (altho ive not quite got the hang of it YET). it has always been the cure of boredom. as shakespeare said about love “oh no, it is an ever fixed mark, that looks on tempests and is never shaken, it is the star to every wandering bark, whose worth's unknown although his height be taken” (i now this quote becuz we're studying it in english lit i didnt use ai). this is how i feel about archmc. it always guides me through stressful times and i feel like its just underrated. 

i could continue to yap but i feel like its just gonna get boring so ill stop here. voxel even tho i dont know u i feel like ur a good person so dont quit pls. ull find a way to get better grades without quitting. enter me plsss and even if i dont get the prize thx so much for holding a giveaway and providing a place for me to yap. i dont know if ull read to this part but hope u all the best in ur academic studies.

I play it in my free time

my motivation is to ruin the economy with various glitches I found with the team of 4 players I call the KK9 

my latest project is to abuse a glitch to have a 10% chance of gaining any account I want

something that motivates to me to play is bc of all the interesting ppl i've met

There’s something uniquely addictive about ArchMC that keeps me logging in day after day. It’s not just another Minecraft server; it has its own personality, quirks, and a strange sense of familiarity that grows the more you play. The core gameplay has all the staples—economy, PvP, player shops, and land claims—but ArchMC throws in its own twists that make it feel like a home away from home in the Minecraft universe. One of the main reasons I stick around is the sheer freedom to play how I want. I can spend a whole day just building on my land, mining resources in the custom world generation, or grinding out jobs for in-game currency. There’s also a thriving auction house system and chest shops that make the economy feel alive. Unlike some servers where eveything feels sterile or over-regulated, ArchMC gives you just enough structure to guide you while still allowing creatiity to flourish.

But no server is perfect, and ArchMC definitely has its flaws. Sometimes, the server experiences lag spikes during peak hours, especially when too many people are in the Nether or using chunk-loading contraptions. Staff activity can be a mixed bag—some are extremely helpful and quick to respond, while others seem more like figureheads who vanish for days. And while the server does have custom items and plugins, they aren’t always well-balanced; occasionally, a weapon or tool becomes ridiculously overpowered, making PvP unbalanced until an p2w bundle comes around. There are also moments when the player base can get a little toxic, especially in the chat during disputes over trades, raids, or land borders. Still, despite the drama, it never crosses into truly hostile territory for long. The staff usually intervene when things get too heated, and most of the players eventually cool off and move on.

The community is part of what makes ArchMC such a rollercoaster of an experience. You’ve got the weird players—like that one guy who builds dirt castles shaped like dinosaurs and insists on roleplaying as a wizard every time he logs on. Or the person who runs a fish market on the server but refuses to sell anything other than cooked cod, which he calls “fish sticks of power.” But then there are the genuinely cool people—builders who create jaw-dropping cities, redstone geniuses who run entire farms with a single lever, and community leaders who organize events like treasure hunts or server-wide boss fights. Some players have been around for years, forming unofficial guilds or clans that newbies aspire to join. There’s a genuine sense of camaraderie among longtime players, and it’s not uncommon to find someone willing to help you out with gear, tips, or just hang out while mining or adventuring.

Then there are the items—man, the items are half the reason I keep playing. ArchMC has a custom enchantment system that takes normal weapons and turns them into legendary gear. You can spend hours grinding mob drops to craft custom swords like “Inferno Blade” or pickaxes that mine in 3x3 chunks. There are crates too, and while they can be a bit grindy or even p2W depending on your perspective, cracking open a rare crate and finding an epic item still feels like winning the lottery. The server also has unique artifacts and event-based gear, which means if you participate in certain activities, you can get seasonal items that aren’t available anywhere else. Those kinds of collectibles give players something to brag about and work toward, which keeps the long-term grind from feeling stale.

At the end of the day, ArchMC isn’t perfect, but that’s kind of why I love it. It’s chaotic, funny, unpredictable, and filled with both bizarre and brilliant people who make logging in every day worth it. I could play on more polished or bigger servers, but they usually lack the personality ArchMC brings to the table. It’s like a wild little kingdom that you carve your place into over time. You get frustrated, you laugh, you get betrayed, you build, you rage quit and then come right back the next day. There’s always something new happening, whether it’s a glitch someone’s exploiting, a new shop that just opened up, or a weird player starting a strange cult in the spawn zone. It’s those unpredictable stories and the sense of belonging that make ArchMC more than just a Minecraft server—it’s a virtual world that somehow keeps feeling like home, flaws and all.

so enter me, DemiGod, the greatest arch player to exist, a true OG. 

btw this is NOT ai, i spent hours writing this beautiful masterpiece

He said no AI…

GPTZero says 95% AI written, and most of the stuff in it is just false lmao
