"You Would Not Believe Your Eyes"

26.7k Gameboi17  4.1 years ago

It happened, my goal was achieved, somehow. I turned platinum without noticing. I was just doing my ordinary business on YouTube and SimplePlanes, and poof, that 24K gold turned into 25K Platinum. "Woah", i said faintly. Before i go on, here is a timeline of what i did throughout these 1.4 years:


September 2018, WHITE: I was a noobie, and i didn't how the community worked nor function. When i first started making my account, i already thought of a username, Gameboi14, because i'm a big gamer, and... i wasn't even 14 yet, since my birthday is 4 days before Halloween. And, i kept the username Gameboi since i was 11, so the earliest i can think of is Gameboi11, and i used that username for some other mobile games. The first thing i posted was my "Pink Lady", and thankfully, i still have it. My first ever upvote was from Kerbango, and my 2nd was from randomusername. I kept making weird stuff in SimplePlanes in my pastime, but they were so wierd, i didn't wanted to post them in public. My first ever Gravatar was a plane, which was a IL-86. I can't remember my first follower, RIP. I was obsessed with GTA 4 on my PS3 during this time.


BRONZE: I didn't know the community had rules, and a user cursed me out because i said LOL on one of their aircraft, so i posted in CAPS, A USER IN THE NAME OF [REDACTED] INSULTED ME. Later, it was removed. The first moderator to link me to the rules was Tully2001. When i reached 400 in 11 days, i made a post about it, thinking it would impress some unfamiliar people, but no. At this time, i posted off-topic forums, thinking they would give me attention, but they got removed anyway. I made reposts from others, with some odd changes. I remember converting a plane into a poorly shaped pigeon, then into a short Blue-Jay. The most upvotes i had at that time was 7, on a now-dead meme called Wanna Sprite Cranberry? I started posting Fallout New Vegas stuff, since the game was my obsession.


SILVER: I was getting used the community, getting acquainted with high-level users. I didn't know what else to build, so i made this short-lived little series known as Comic Strips. The community lacked some comics, so i wanted people to be entertained some way. The short comics had to do with funny or random moments of Fallout 4. I made about 10, and some people saw them. Some cringed, and others were careless, and some enjoyed them but i didn't care. I wasn't ashamed. One user even told me to delete them because they were too random and cringy, but i ignored them. A couple of weeks later, i announced i would stop and continue posting original stuff. I created my own plane company, which was GameboiIndustries. After realizing that some You-tubers played SP, i wanted to make a plane that was free-to-use for them, but it failed, so i removed it days later.


GOLD: After the Videos feature was added, i instantly uploaded my first video that was in-game, i think that one was Chocolate Rain Remake, and it was a hit. Then i ended up uploading rather random stuff, such as me tossing paper planes, a lightning strike, even me riding on a Chicago Transit Authority train. EternalDarkness removed it, but i tried to explain to him that it's not just about planes, but boats, cars, trains, helicopters, bikes, but then he denied it, so i just moved along. Around 15K, i was obsessed with Fallout and GTA 5, and then another obsession hit me. It was this blue, lizard-like Pokemon i found from a video game magazine. He kinda looked cute and unique. I read about him, and the more i read about him, the more related we got. It was then i decided to use him as my current Gravatar, until i find another interest. I then got really spammy, making forums about him and trying to make others like this Pokemon. I then regretted what i done, and i continued posting original content. I did some good ones, such as the Rocket 68 from Fallout once again, and the CA-180. CA was another fictional plane company i made, but it died. Later on, i decided to remove almost everything from my profile to provide space for upcoming projects and real content.


PLATINUM, APRIL 2020: Here i am. Now, what great things await for me? Oh yes, replicas. Replicas, replicas, replicas. Toy replicas at the moment. I'm all about them now. The only reason why i made it this far is because some users wanted me to. They upvoted all my remaining stuff, but soon, there will be more stuff than ever. And this stuff will be the best i ever built.


I'd want to thank to every single user that helped me get through my 1.4 years, or 1.5. Whether you're a boy, or girl, or even both, you mean a lot to me. Now, it's time i push myself to the limits. Have a great day
