At first glance, passers don’t give it much thought, but Veganism as a social movement is growing. What is Veganism on EcoCityCraft? @Joliver1998 comments that Veganism is a commitment to a fresh lifestyle. Vegans abstain from the use of any commodity that was made from in part or in whole by animals or animal byproduct. This means that Vegans do not use leather as it comes from cows, nor products that use leather like books and book and quills. Vegans also do not use byproducts such as enchanting experience produced from mob grinding. As I spoke with several new age socialites, I began to appreciate the multitude of ways I can avoid using animal or animal related products. On a personal note, perhaps I should garner a greater respect for entities on EcoCityCraft. After all, I do love my naturally spawned pet cat Meowth. Forum Resources By OnSceneReporter, Chief Editor The EcoCityCraft forum has a wealth of knowledge assembled by builders, residents, presidents and more. Some people use some of such posts regularly, others may not know about them. We thought it would be a good idea to highlight some of the ones we know about. List of Forum Tutorials A list of useful forum tutorials, ranging a variety of subjects, is curated by @Jason1964 since August 23, 2014. This thread links to some key tutorials that cover things like adding pictures to forum posts and what teamspeak is. This is definitely a useful resource for new EcoCityCraft members. Staff Guidebook Started on the 2013 fourth of July, @blowtube123 created and has diligently maintained a list of current and former staff members and their ranks. As things move and shake, it seems a lot of community members watch and participate in notification, perhaps making the Staff Guidebook one of the most frequented on-going forum threads with over 20,000 views. Portal Directory The portal directory is a very useful tool for the aspiring adventurer and traveler. A portal address list of some sort has been active on EcoCityCraft since May 15, 2013 when @sprayware created a map and directory. In early 2014, @OnSceneReporter created a new directory, which is also currently maintained by @Joliver1998. World Map Veteran EcoCityCraft members sometimes reminisce of a live world map. In lieu of a live map, andrewkm produced some static images of what the worlds of Legacy and Rising look like. @OnSceneReporter approximated coordinate lines over the maps. This can be useful to get an idea of what biomes are distributed, and where about a town is located in relation to the rest of the world. Application Archive One of the newest cool forum resources is the Application Archive, initially dated July 28, 2014. @blowtube123 made formatted versions of all the wiki applications to make it easier for people to copy and paste them on the forum This list is only a smattering of useful threads for new and veteran members. Comment and link below on what you feel are great resources that you perhaps frequent. Next Edition Spotlight Ideas?

This makes me want to switch from potatoes to bacon. Veganism seems so stupid! We, people, were made to be above the other animals! Also I would use leather armor now! exp is easiest to get from mobs!
I am 75% vegan in real life so this article makes me want to become one in-game too! Thanks for the idea! Here comes another minecraft vegan!
I hate vegans, firstly i hate vegetables. Secondly meat is awesome. Thirdly i pay no respect to the animals that die.
I'm curious, how is one a percentage vegan? It's either vegetarian or vegan. Vegetarians eat no meat, vegans don't use animal byproducts. Which one are you? Even if you use 25% of animal byproducts, you're still not vegan... Help me understand please ;-;
Lol, I say the percentage cause I hate the word vegetarian. Don't ask why cause I don't know why, I just hate the word >.<
rally? wuts that? i am gonna simply use everything from animals now, i simply dont care about animals, just as i hate builders and dont care what they like and dont like.
I am living after veganism...I mine XP from ores, I have diamond armour, use /mail instead of book and quill and eat baked potatos instead of meat. So I love animals, but hate the planet, apparently? i carve holes into it...and cute animals fall in. - "I am not a vegetatian because I love animals. I am a vegetarian because I hate plants" Another great newspaper episode!
I myself am a 99% vegetarian. When meat is the only choice, ill eat it. But i will gladly eat any organic meat.
