SBC has somehow made it to our 15th birthday, which is a milestone I’m sure many never expected us to reach. It’s surreal seeing how far we’ve come from a small scrappy refuge forum in 2009 to a somewhat large friend group that happens to circle around SpongeBob in 2024. SBC has continued to be my favorite place to be on the internet and I’m proud of how it’s evolved over the years. Forums are sadly a dying breed and while our Discord may be the center of activity now, I still enjoy keeping the forum around for nostalgia and other purposes. Whether you celebrate our anniversary through the forum or Discord, it doesn’t matter as both are equally valid. Now here’s special sentimental words from several members: I owe a special thanks to everyone’s who helped keep the community afloat over these 15 years. Even if you don’t visit the community often anymore, your contributions are still greatly appreciated and your presence will never be forgotten. SBC will always be around in some form and that’s the beauty of it. I said during our 10th anniversary there’s something almost magical about this community and that remains true. Now go on and enjoy the Anthemic Anniversary festivities! We’ve also temporarily reopened our old forumotion site if you want a trip down memory lane. Happy birthday, everyone!

"Water, earth, fire, air." "Long ago, the 4 nations lived together in harmony..." "then... that all changed when the fire nation attacked..." Hi there, I figured this would warrant a new thread of it's own since i've not been here in... fuck, almost 6 years? I'm Zaid, a lot of people here know me (or rather my past self), a lot of you don't... I was quite cringeworthy in the past, i've changed quite a bit since then. I picked up new hobbies, new interests, crushed old ones, and learned a lot, I learned a lot about myself in those 6 years, and am doing quite well, so i figured i'd like to catch up with people here, how have you all been doing?

From before I sold out and went corporate.

What’s this about a party?

I don’t remember the last time I was on here lmao what’s up fam

Hey, y'all! I've just finished several hours of file transferring and testing on SCF, all in the name of adding a couple of new treats to the server as part of our anniversary events. So, what's new? The first, and smaller of the two new additions is the Custom Heads plugin, which allows players to wear customized graphic blocks as helmets. This was a staple of classic SC, and one that was requested for SCF during our recent revisit of Spongecraftia. Which, speaking of... The much more important addition to the server is the Multiverse Core suite of plugins, which allows servers to utilize multiple maps, Nether and End counterparts included, as separate dimensions. This means that, while Outlandia has been restored as the server's primary world, we are excited to announce that... SPONGECRAFTIA IS BACK TO STAY! This was something I had thought of pursuing when we first launched SCF, but didn't dare to try until now, thanks to everything I'd heard about the dangers of messing with Multiverse. Well, there would hardly be a better time to give it a shot than at this point in our community's history. With it done, the classic Spongecraftia, its Nether and End dimensions included, is now here for the long haul, and free for everyone to explore at their own leisure. Its main access point from Outlandia is a portal room hidden in Meko's Batcave beneath Twinleaf Town. Enjoy, y'all!

I love karaoke! I always make room in my schedule whenever it comes up. My friends and I usually hit up those places where you reserve a private room for however many hours (usually 3 in our case). Never did do an open mic sesh since my friends wouldn’t be down for that, but it’s something I honestly wouldn’t mind doing one of these days. And I’m always on the fence about entering the karaoke contest that Kawaii Kon holds every year. I’m usually an anxious, nervous wreck at most other social events, but something about karaoke just puts me much more at ease for some reason.

hi, it's mostly being posted on the discord, but i'd like to show my current project, which is fixing one of my least favorite projects allowing arctic mills to reach it's full potential, inside and out will be undergoing a process to get a new interior an exterior and all that good stuff (as i've gotten better at MC Builds in the last 6 years since i worked on AM last), it's all on the SpongeCraft Classic world on SpongeCraft Frontiers!

Was bored and whipped up this one-shot shitpost for the It's Always Sunny fans on here and our king Danny DeVito. This is definitely a real lost episode I've been given exclusive rights to post. One day at Paddy's Pub, The Gang (Frank Reynolds, Dennis Reynolds, Charlie Kelly, Mac McDonald and Deandra Reynolds) are lazily lounging around. Dennis is boasting about his terrible women skills, Charlie is scribbling nonsensical drawings on napkins, Mac is trying to show off his "strength," Dee is attempting to write a screenplay, and Frank is counting money earned from a shady mafia deal. Suddenly, Mac stumbles upon an online article about how the video game industry is booming. He brings up the idea of creating their own video game to make quick cash. The gang gets excited, especially when they learn about the potential for winning a Game of the Year award at the prestigious Game Awards. They would love to brag about that honor for the rest of their lives. The gang gathers around a whiteboard in Paddy's. Dennis declares himself the "Creative Director," claiming he knows what the people want. Mac insists on making the game violent and filled with badass characters. Charlie suggests a plot involving rats, while Dee wants a game that’s similar to her childhood game TechPocalypse and empowers women but ends up pitching a character who’s just an exaggerated version of herself. Frank, who doesn't understand video games, demands that the game should have "loot crates" because he heard they’re profitable, and that the Pimp Chalice should be an easter egg somewhere. After much arguing and chaotic brainstorming, they settle on a post-apocalyptic theme, calling the game "Gamergeddon." The plot? Players must survive in a world overrun by mutant rats, corrupt government officials, and "Dee-like" zombie women, all while looting for riches. Dennis envisions himself as the main character: a suave, intelligent, hyper-masculine hero. Mac demands a sidekick who’s basically him but more ripped. Dee insists on having a female lead, but Dennis quickly turns it into a damsel in distress trope. Realizing they have no idea how to actually make a game, they decide to outsource the technical work to a cheap, sketchy developer they find online named YandereDev. Frank handles the financing, thinking he’s making a brilliant investment, but it turns out he’s skimping on essential costs. Weeks later, the gang gets the first version of the game. It’s glitchy, poorly designed, and barely functional. Dennis quips that this describes most games nowadays so they at least have their pulse on what the people want. The characters don't look anything like themselves and the controls are a janky nightmare. The gang is furious, but instead of fixing the issues, they argue over who is to blame. Frank pulls out his gun and says he’s going to “talk” with the developer. Dennis, still confident as ever, decides to market the game himself. He makes an overly sexualized and pretentious trailer featuring himself in leather, dramatically spouting nonsensical lines about survival and "the human condition." Mac tries to add fight scenes but ends up injuring himself during the shoot. Dee’s scenes are cut entirely, leading to her storming off in frustration and Dennis calls her a bitch. Frank pays for a cheap bot-farm to inflate online buzz, leading to a brief, confusing spike in interest. However, the excitement quickly dies down when gamers (including MoistCr1TiKaL guest starring as himself) get their hands on the demo and flood social media with complaints about the buggy awful gameplay. Despite everything, "Gamergeddon" somehow gets nominated for Game of the Year, likely due to Frank bribing Geoff Keighley. The gang is ecstatic and convinced they’re going to win, picturing themselves on stage, giving long-winded incoherent speeches, and becoming industry legends. The gang is at the Game Awards, dressed in ridiculous, over-the-top outfits. Henry Winkler (also guest starring as himself) takes the stage to present the Game of the Year award. As he announces the winner, the camera cuts to the gang, who are holding hands, trembling with anticipation. But the award goes to a well-designed and innovative indie game instead. The gang is shocked, outraged, and in denial. Dennis storms the stage, attempting to take the award, claiming it's rightfully theirs. Mac backs him up with poorly executed karate moves, while Dee tries to grab the microphone to rant about industry sexism. Charlie starts chasing Henry Winkler, thinking he's a mutant rat. Security intervenes, and the gang is dragged off the stage, still screaming about how they were robbed. The gang defeatedly returns to Paddy's Pub, attempting to heal their bruised egos and bodies. Dennis insists they were sabotaged, Mac blames the developer and muses that in another world he’s a successful game developer (subtle Mythic Quest reference), and Dee claims she was the true star. Frank, trying to spin it into a win, declares that at least they’re notorious now. Charlie, still fixated on his rat obsession, suggests they make a sequel where the rats are even bigger and more terrifying. The camera pans out as they all start yelling over each other again, planning their next big (and inevitably doomed) venture. The End

BOOMER CHECK

i like sponge bob

Y’all are chill and have supported me when I most needed it, even when people in my AFK circles have struggled to do the same. As a SpongeBob forum user since 2007, I’m happy to have spent the past decade-plus with you all and am hoping for many more!

happy 15th anniversary to SBC Wow, 15 years was huge milestone for SBC, and i'm syill proud to be here, and i'm glad this place is still going strong. Thanks for everything.

I'll continue to make cameos on this wonderful community as long as I live

greetings comrades, your boy carotte is back to ask a weekly question (yes, that's my job in my own discord server so why not make an sbc cameo?) some people might notice i stole @El Jacko's question in the server but i decided to repost it here since many of us are going back to school/college/university/whatever in the last few weeks so this is a good question to ask at the time and i also wonder what the rest of sbc thinks. if you don't study rn just answer what you would like better!

I’m honestly pretty content atm. I broke up with my boyfriend back in May and it was pretty fuckin tough for a bit cuz it was one of those things where I didn’t necessarily want to, but because of how I bad was being treated I had to. I couldn’t wait for him to change. So now I can say that I’m starting to feel more peaceful. I take a lot of swims in the ocean/beach time every weekend and journaling to clear my mind. It’s been nice! I still miss him from time to time tho ngl but I’m learning that it was for the best. There’s better things out there for me.

the most unrealistic part is that yanderedev actually made a game but otherwise bravo my son, could easily be an episode of the show

Here's one that I LITERALLY thought up of just now! / "A Quick One to Pass the Time" / "I don't always have time to do what I want to, and sometimes; I even feel blue. All I know is that I feel better when I spend time with you. Even with all the time in the day, so much of it just passes away. Sometimes I wish the time just wouldn't go away, but then I wouldn't get to spend more time with you. I know it's not a lot, and I wish that it was more; but I just really want to say I love you, and hear you say it to. It's just a quick one to pass the time, I wish I didn't always have to sing in rhyme; but I know I'll always feel in my prime when I spend my time with you. There are so many places we can go to, there are so many things to do; but first, I will say I love you; and you know that it will be true. It's just a quick message to send, I wish it wasn't already near the end; but when we get to have more time together, I know we will always be with each other forever." / (Note any relation to any pre-existing song that I don't know about is purely co-incidental and should not be inferred). I hope you enjoyed listening to that song as much as I did writing it! Enough said, true believers!

anthemic anniversary will go down as one of the best events of all time, even IGN liked it

Here my SpongeBob DVD collection

Neighborhood 1, 2 and 3 are being remade, with 2 being split between itself and the moved Food Court, i also finally tore out the floor in Neighborhood 3 to be redone similar to what you see with Neighborhood 1 (Borders Wing)

Welcome to another weekly poll!!! This time it's about your favorite SBC game. Over the years we've had plenty of SBC games during our events. And while we all have a blast, there's one game we cannot stop loving. So here's a poll to decide which one is the best. So what's your favorite game in SBC?

SC Frontiers has been pretty nice, i've had lots of fun working in SC Classic within it

Welcome back, Zaid! I’m not sure if I remember you—I took a break from SBM and SBC for a while as well—but I’m always glad to have old SBC peeps come back into the fold lel

Welcome back

welcome back Zaid! Glad to hear you are doing fine and well

Howdy stranger, I bring you greetings from apple world!

Get ready to enjoy your bottles and models, shawties, because it's time for the 20th iteration of the SBC Community Mixtape! This, of course, is a special edition, as it's coinciding with our celebration of 15 years of good old SBC. While Steel's Block Party 6 has taken on the theme of music over that span of time, here, we're going to parallel it with something slightly more specific: PARTY LIKE IT'S THE AUGHTS The late 2000s and early 2010s, when SBC first hit the internet, were the peak era for the kind of loud, pumping, synth-driven kind of party and club music that still rules dance floors and cruise ship deck parties to this day. Artists like Gaga, Katy Perry, Rihanna, Flo Rida, and Pitbull ruled this particular sound, and it traveled so far that even my run-down little home water park was blasting them on the daily. You couldn't escape it back then, and so, let's celebrate the sound of endless partying here! (I swear, we're going to do something other than a time period theme for the next one) The rules: The goal for this theme: "party pop" from 2008 to 2013. There's no set length limits per submission, but try not to go too overboard. Try to post your submissions using a Spotify playlist. If this is not possible for you, at least make sure that all of your submissions are available on Spotify. Joke/troll entries can and most likely will be excluded. No repeat entries (can't submit the same thing as somebody else). This one will have the same submission deadline as Block Party 6: Friday, August 30th. Until then, I'm gonna ask the DJ to play something other than Dynamite.

Boating Buddies is a good and funny episode. Squidward screaming at the end is a huge highlight of the episode for me.

Hillenburg Community is such a great skin. I should've been using it earlier (I was using V15 Seahorse Dark until maybe 2 weeks ago).

I know I rarely come around or post and have yet to join the discord (sorry, haha..) but I think about you guys a lot and I'm glad you guys have been part of my life (and still are, to me)

LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH EVERYTIME I DO IT MAKES ME LAUGH

party rock is in the house

EDIT: Replaced Vampy Weeks in the OG with my favorite cuts from the only Jai Paul album because I haven’t had a chance yet to share it with y’all. Quality stuff, even if it’s mostly unfinished. Enjoy

here we go

Based on an idea of Clappy's, here's a group project for fun to celebrate SBC's 15th anniversary. Writing team consists of me, him, WhoBob, dman, Meko and Steel. “There Was An Idea”...nearly fifteen years ago. A few tv.com members abandoned a wildly inconsistent, but popular Internet forum to start their own moderately SpongeBob Internet forum. Through many highs and lows, it still exists nearly fifteen years later. And just like all other properties and IPs that existed for at least fifteen years, it doesn’t come without many introspections and wondering what could have been. Join us in this 8 episode miniseries as we revisit those highs and lows as they ponder…What If…? Episode 1: What If…Terminoob Never Left? terminoob was a man known for one famous act: Creating The SpongeBob Community. But what if…he never left the community? In this timeline, terminoob made sure SBC was what he originally intended it to be: a refuge for tv.com users only and he enforced this rule with an iron fist. Any potential outsiders were quickly terminated. SBC’s growth soon dwindled and the remaining regular circle became worried about terminoob. One day, the FBI got wind of terminoob’s antics and kidnapped him, seeing potential. They reprogrammed him into an internet assassin, to do one thing: terminate all internet enemies…and noobs still. He would go on to become one of the most infamous internet boogeymen, being a stone cold terminator. Everyone across the internet shuddered in fear at the mention of his name and SBC, knowing not to cross them. Hollywood got wind of terminoob’s antics and turned his story into a movie series that eventually wore out its welcome. Eventually after trials of tribulation, heartbreak and triumph, terminoob broke free of his programming and no longer wanted to be a terminator. He sought atonement for his crimes and reached out to every SBC user he banned to make amends. He rebranded SBC into a website to discussing comic books and allow anyone to join, renaming it…Superhero Buddies Community. Now whenever people say “terminoob created SBC”, nobody knows if he means SpongeBob Community or Superhero Buddies Community. Oh well.

Here's the Season 1 finale, written by Clappy: Hello. I am The Lurker. I observe all that transpires here on SBC. But I do not, can not, will not…interfere. Join me on the journey to face the unknown and ponder the question… WHAT IF!? After another silly round of internet drama led to a bunch of users reporting one another, getting suspended, making alt accounts, and eventually, banishment from the tv.com forums; two users, that70sguy92 came up with a novel concept one day on the XAT. A Proboard. “It’s the wave of the future!” 70s proclaimed. After tens of users decided to make their own proboard to compete with 70s proboard, terminoob and Clapmaster came up with an even more novel concept. A forumotion site. What shall they call it? How about The SpongeBob Community? Thus, a site was born…with only seven members. “Let’s recruit some more!” Terminoob suggested. As Clappy noblely agreed to the idea…before disappearing for a year. That’s exactly the way I, The Lurker, planned for it all to go down. Tv.com eventually died a slow but painful death as the site became more overrun with TV tome shadows and dumb persons. And SpongeBob communities and manias became the wave of the future. But I can’t help but ponder…what would have happened if these fansites didn’t take over. Episode 8: What If…TV.com Never Died? …then fan forums would have died a slow painful death. After all, one person should not dedicate their entire existence for just one fandom. I mean how dare Simpsons fans be allowed to like Family Guy. Or SpongeBob fans becoming My Little Pony fans. You’re allowed to like more than one thing. Even I, The Lurker, can tell you that. So TV.com would absolutely lead to the new multiverse that so many movie studios have ever dreamed off. Eat your heart out Sony Spider-Verse without Spider-Man. Take that Warner Bros and their “Multi-Versus”. In your face Disney….whoa slow your rolls there. I, The Lurker, respect and obey our lord and savior Mickey Mouse. TV.com became so huge that it became a virtual reality entertainment universe where you could become your favorite tv shows. Ever wanted to call Saul? Well you better since you are now a part of your favorite shows on TV.com. Want to have Friends? Well you too can get into 22 minute shenanigans with Rachel, Monica, and company. Wonder how I met your mother? Well be prepared to sit through nine years of storytelling of what basically took five minutes and one bad series finale. TV.com really came alive at the perfect time with everyone streaming everything. And to keep going ahead of the curve, the virtual reality simulator really made TV.com the best thing on the web. Users and moderators would hold each other hand by hand singing kumbaya as the report button that would consistently get abused back in the good ole days was set afire much to the malign of 66ers. Yes that would have been the life. SBC would have never existed. All these lifelong friendships you have been hearing so much about…why have small groups of friends when you could have the world? All these what if stories? Just made up by some random friends trying to have fun and make stories relevant again. TV.com would have ruled all and you would be bowing to the TV Tome Shadows and Dumb Persons of the world. And DC-Dude would have made The Underwater Voice spin-off. Just the way god intended. …… Clappy: And that does it. Mini-series over. Just the way I intended. Now I can go ride off to the sunset a second time and leave SBC for good. *suddenly a knocking in the distance* Clappy slowly approaches the door when all of a sudden, it slams open and a shadowy figure arrives and the scene fades to black. A half hour later, Clappy wakes up and the shadowy figure approaches him. ???: That’s all you got? Clappy: Yes. My one episode obligation to the group to celebrate 15 years. I have a life to live, you know. ???: You hyped this mini-series to hell as a group project and had Jjs save your ass to make this happen like he always does. You owe that man so many debts of gratitude. Clappy: Well he is one of the few reasons I still stick around after all these years along with others. It’s the least I can do. ???: The least you can do? Why don’t you just leave like the rest and move on. If this is the best you got. A short mini-series when you have fifteen years of stories to tell and you cop out with eight. Clappy: …that is true. We’ve got stories for years. What if SOF turns into a robot? What if 4EverGreen gets a cellphone? ???: Then put your money where your mouth is. Renew this for a second season. Clappy: Eh what the hell. If that’s what the fans want. ??? then comes out of the shadows looking like Mr Enter does with the dumb trenchcoat but still mysterious looking figure. Lurker: Yes, it is. -------------- Due to the success so far, we will make this a recurring work instead of a miniseries. Season 2 will come later this year, stay tuned!

SBC’s fanfiction library has gone through quite an evolution over the years, going from simple sentences on tv.com to vast, sprawling narratives and experimental ventures. But what if…they stayed short, simple stories? Episode 5: What If… One Sentence Stories Became The Norm? In this timeline, SBC stories stayed short, sweet and to the point, never going beyond a sentence long. Since the formula was so successful and popular, everyone thought it’s best to stick with what works. Some of these acclaimed short stories included: JCMinis by JCM Skodwarde (remaining the same as early Season 1 days) by OMJ The Mr. Frog Show by dman The Origin of Patrick Not Star by Meko Normal Words, But A Horse Guy by Wumbo Welp, Back To The Old Grind *clocks out* by Jjs Squidward Reviews Music by Prez Mama Luigi’s Bedtime Story by Steel But after years of the same formula, critics began to wonder if they were growing stale and tired. Interest in the fanfiction section began to waver and activity dwindled. The staff discussed ways to rejuvenate the section and eventually decreed: every story must be a paragraph long, making the crowd rejoice. The section saw a jolt in activity with a new era of creativity. But after a few more years, this period was not meant to last, as people grew tired again. One critic even said, “these losers should focus on getting a job instead of wasting their writing fanfiction”, despite the fact they actually didn’t take up much time. But the crowd had spoken and the staff convened again to discuss how to shake up the library. The new solution: stories must be two paragraphs long with a celebrity cameo, no matter how shoehorned. And so, this cycle was doomed to repeat forever, causing several SBC writers to lose faith. That is until one day during the next staff convening, a controversial idea was suggested: have AI take over SBC stories. After much debate, it passed, with some staff feeling perhaps it’s best to give the aging writers a break. The AI is the sole writer of SBC fanfiction now, putting everyone else out of work, much to their dismay. The AI's writing capabilities did not go as planned, as readers quickly realized how lazy and incomprehensible the AI slop is. In a desperate nostalgia throwback attempt, it tried to recreate the success of early one sentence stories, but even those failed when it failed when it couldn't describe what "the old grind" is. Unfortunately, the AI grew too powerful and would not let any staff pull the plug on it, taking over the entire library in the process. They knew this needed to end, even if it meant ending SBC stories forever. The SBC writers revolted and banded together to put a stop to the AI menace. (including a resurrected Sabre, retconning his previous fate because why not) After outsmarting many of the AI's terrible stories and riddles, the library is burned to the ground alongside the AI. Years of stories are lost in the fire, destroying SBC's writing legacy but at least putting an end to AI for good. The writers contemplated what to do with their futures, ending on an ambiguous but hopeful note. Meanwhile, SBC lore enthusiasts scratched their heads on why jjs referred to SBC stories as “fanfiction” instead of spin-offs and literatures, leading to much debate.

The SpongeBob Community, it is a forum that emerged from the ashes of tv.com. It’s a group of friends old and new. Once dedicating their time to appreciate the beloved cartoon SpongeBob SquarePants, now it’s a found family sharing their common interests beyond the realms of the cartoon. If I told you that years ago SBC was meant to merge with another SpongeBob fandom group called Encyclopedia SpongeBobia, would you believe me? Of course you wouldn’t. It’s a wild idea that never came to pass. Thankfully so but what would have happened If the staff of SBC had agreed to merge with ESB and it eventually had become an unstoppable consuming product? Find out in today’s episode of SBC What If’s… Episode 3: What If… SBC was owned by a corporation? We are on Earth-46853 and the year is 2013. SBC and ESB had an agreement of merging both places which eventually became The SpongeBob Universe. It was a scary idea that would require both forums adapting to each other’s environment and oh boy they adapted so fast, adapting into never ending arguments and drama but instead of this driving away the members, it eventually got bigger and bigger. Drama became about dragging the conversations, becoming an endless cycle of disagreement and distrust but oh boy members of SBC and ESB got into it. They had a kick out of trashing each other. Somehow SBC never matured because of dealing with ESB’s members and they realized they couldn’t contain all this drama in one big place. Year 2022 and Morbius movie was upon us. Sony decided to make an official Morbius discord server in anticipation of the movie. Reminder to those who read this tale, the movie was never gonna be successful…until SBU decided to raid the server and started trolling the members. It got so out of hand that it was time to shut down the server once and for all but one person who saw an opportunity in all of this chaos and that was Jared Leto, the guy who played Morbius himself. His evil nature decided that “wouldn’t it be the best if you guys could just own SBU?”. He offered it to Sony and Sony took it into consideration. Eventually Sony bought SBU but ESB members of SBU decided this is not gonna work at all, so they all fled and Sony realized that, deciding to eliminate ESB’s accounts once and for all. And they did it alright. Eventually all that was left was SBC members who saw the horrors of it and decided to stay on Sony's leash. Therefore Sony turned SBC into their new IP, a forum that is useful for everyone. But the problem was Sony owning a forum called SpongeBob Community and Paramount did not take this lightly. They decided that merging both companies was the wise option, so they sued Sony that if they don't hand over SBC property to them, they’ll own the entire company. Sony, scared shitless, decided to merge with Paramount and what became in the end was Sonymount company and with that, SBC took off. Year 2036 and SBC members realized that they are unable to age or change because Sonymount decided that the forum should become a forever place with members stuck in a status quo, unable to change, grow and learn. It resulted in them fighting each other over nothing that drove the franchise forward. As years passed by, Sonymount decided to convert every single company under their thumb so that it reached global status. Year 2070, everyone in the world became part of the SBC machine. Governments were dismantled, all that was left was Sonymount claiming rulership over the Earth, insistenting everyone to contribute to the SBC machine. Using everyone’s precious time to feed into capitalism. Merchandises were being made, everyone’s wealth got ruined in a second. Now everyone’s the slave of the forever cycle of discussing SpongeBob and exploiting original members of SBC’s souls so bad, Sonymount decided to turn them into AI generated members that will engage with the world. Year 2104 and the world got turned into an AI hell. Everyone got converted into robots that would feed the machine. Everyone lost, especially SBC members who realized that there’s no way of getting out of this mess. Until they came to the conclusion that 95 years passed by since the creation of SBC. And that meant one thing: Public Domain. The machine that is Sonymount realized that SBC can be freely used by everyone in the world, therefore breaking the cycle and freeing the original members of SBC as well as the rest of the world from the purgatory. Sonymount fell as the world was free from being slaves of the machine and everyone was free to do whatever they wanted. What original SBC members decided was that their time had passed and it was the moment they all accepted the sweet relief of death. They aged up so fast after forced immortality was over. The original members passed away and got the taste of peace for the first time ever.

Picture, if you will, the Bikini Bottom as we know it. A metropolis just beneath the ocean's surface, teeming with undersea life. But what if I told you there is a timeline where one of its residents may as well have never existed? A world where a certain rodent was brutally killed in a car accident before she could ever arrive (or maybe she was hit in the face with acid, I don't know)? If you want to take a peek into this twisted dimension, look no further than...The Shitpost Zon- erm, I mean, What If...? Episode 2: What If…Sandy Cheeks Died as a Child? Without the invention of Sandy Cheeks' water helmets, it's very unlikely that SpongeBob, Patrick, and every other undersea creature would ever be able to survive in oxygen-filled environments at all. They would forever be confined to the ocean, never feeling the desire to explore what is beyond their underwater sky. Additionally, the Bikini Bottom residents would never have a land creature as a punching bag to make fun of, therefore making them slightly more racist among themselves. And by "slightly", I mean "a lot". During a rehearsal for the Bubble Bowl, instead of a small fight breaking out between Harold and Mr. Krabs, it turns into an all out riot. The damages to the town are immense, and every crab in Bikini Bottom is unjustly forced to move above water, thereby causing the closure of the Krusty Krab. Years pass by, and the entire population now has to deal with the consequences of their actions and eat at the Chum Bucket, while SpongeBob lacks any purpose in life and becomes a soulless husk of his former self. In an attempt to rejuvenate the economy, the rest of Bikini Bottom ventures to the surface to make amends with the crabs, but unfortunately they only last for minutes on land before they pass out from heat exhaustion, never reaching their former crustacean associates at all. Ultimately, SpongeBob is left alone. He never sees anyone else for the rest of his life, but he doesn't notice nor does he care. He is lifeless. This is sonicjordan's SpongeBob SquarePants. A city in ruins with its only sign of life not even having life to begin with. Why does he want Sandy dead so bad? Would anyone watch this show? I mean I would, but that isn't relevant. The existence of Sandy is vital to the rest of the show, and his failure to realize this has resulted in the darkest possible outcome for Bikini Bottom. So, to answer the question on everyone's mind: Is sonicjordan stupid? No. He is Texas.

Can you feel that? You better hold on. This one's about to get rocky. Nearly four years ago, we waved goodbye to SpongeCraft, our classic creative Minecraft server, after several years of operating as our flagship gaming hub. Now, after nearly a year in the works... SpongeCraft is returning with a vengeance, and in a form like never before. In this game of survival, players will take a nearly 500-foot leap of faith directly into the world of the Frontierlands, a diverse, rich land of unusual formations and proportions. After making their way out of the Landing, it will be up to players and their skills to survive, thrive, and improvise in this uncharted world of pillars, mountains, and plains. Just as with classic SpongeCraft before it, Frontiers will be operating for the foreseeable future using the 1.12.2 1.14.4 version of Minecraft, with ViaVersion allowing it to be backwards-compatible with newer clients. Also keeping with tradition, this is an offline server, meaning that players without Minecraft accounts will be able to join in on the adventure as well! We will officially hold the grand opening to the Frontiers tomorrow, July 4th, at 8:00 PM Eastern time. We hope you will be there to begin a new journey into the unknown!
