he’s mad at me
Why?
because cats can’t follow rules
Lol
wut
applause
Ok now why do human beings have value
they never had one if i remeber in my thoughts but well cat is not a human being
If we think correct
But who does that
When I get harrassed, I just remember that The men who live with hatred in their hearts will die one day. And I shall live for I have not insulted those who have insulted I.
im a walmart/bag
-# i cant do this anymore
Can you rephrase that
I didn't get it
Yea be a human
Exactly
Cat ain't human being so she does have some kind of value well for those who want to
But you should Love humans
i do, only some of them
Value
Isn't subjective.
Who do you hate
love? humans aren't those the purest devils.
people who destroy this world for the sake of their satisfaction, and thinking that it will make things better
So why not love humans
That kind of sounds like you and me mate. Ngl
we can't be called humans we are fallen angels
Fallen hoomans
Or that
Ig
your choice is what you felt right
False
You'll learn. In time.
-# all that i caused is more and more drama, it feels like the server is decaying agaim, just like it did before
I don't think you've made any drama
no
Think cat what are you really
Think
i don’t know, honestly
think
get inside your thoughts
i don’t know who i am, okay..??
You can't tell that if you thought about it for a short second
Think longer
And more like us
same for all of you
Then you see the real of you
i did the math wrong, sorry
What gives hoomans value
their thoughts
who they are..??
How so
Cause they are based on their knowledge.
the good things they did, and who they truly are, deeply inside..??
Does being more educated make you more human than others?
. Where does that value come from?
If some want to be seen like that
Yes we do
i don’t know
How so
we do..??
||think||
For our own reasons.
we think the way we want to do things that qualifies us as valued
Bruh
That's subjective
it comes from.. i dont know.. them..??
Where does objective value come from
But if we want to feel valued we just have to see our own as valued enough
ShimmeringStars, i really want to ping you, but this time, i’m following the rules, please, check out what’s going on..
Yea but if we try to live out an illusion, it's not gonna be so great
We need to follow what is true
we aren’t empty
we have to see trueness to be what we want to be
the person above me, remember what he said, you are a valuable and beloved person
My beloved human being,
Please for your sake, find the meaning of life. For the lost have no pastures to lay in. No rivers to lay by. No water to drink. They are wandering. Thinking they are free. The desert is vast, but the oasis is beautiful.
i will
Cool
Now derive from where you get your philosophical statements and tell me
What no
Wdym
idk
Now do this
??
*do
i get them from my mind, and from everything that happened in life..??
Obviously.
Where is the thing that supports your claim.
That we have value
maybe you can try that too
uhh.. our s-souls, and us deeply inside, or something like that
I did to it took me years to do so. But i got it 2 years ago
How do you know we have souls?
Just think on it for a while don't rush it
Cool.
What is the meaning of life
everyone has their own perspective
i don’t know.. i can just sometimes feel things, i don’t know, maybe im insane, now
That's okay. Just think on it if you wish
Idk maybe
Ghost just ghosted me fr lol
Oh there he is
it seems like all of this philosophy is pushing us to do things that we’re too tired to do, i don’t know
Then don't do it
Just like water, life is just part of a cycle for the world. This applies to you as well as to me. Therefore, we can do what we want and decide for ourselves how we want to live. Water supports it.
But you have to understand that,
If you're a human. You can't avoid these questions.
That is assuming we are just matter and energy.
What do you have to support that
We tried.
Then we thought our evil would not be seen.
And now we're here
Everyone has their own choices aswell as reasons to be what they are or want to be
In Babylon all over again
How does that relate to your previous statement
It just seems to be a Loop no one ever has a correct answer for those
yeah..
I simply asked why you think we're simply matter and energy.
No loop there
life has felt like a loop, at some point

Not what
karamel what is your meaning of life
but yeah, sometimes we don’t have to be all serious
I found this awesome series called murder drones
Started watching it
Then.
That exact date
19th July 2023
It hit me
depression
Idk why
I never felt that sad before
Never
It was the release of episode 3
It was so good
So good
-# i feel the same way too
we all have one same thing.
I was
Empty
Months passed
More episodes came
More holes in my heart
I didn't know why
Then it hit me again
I'm stupid
no.
I tried to fill the infinite hole in my heart with something finite
It never worked
To this day
I didn't know my meaning
Of life
Then
I started questioning things
Why is life
Why are we
Why am I
What am I
Why must I
Was there a god
What is a god
Then it hit me
I was my own god
I tried to throw myself into the bottomless pit
And thought I could survive
I was dying
Dying
Dying
Then it hit me (again)
What could there be so infinite that could fill me
What was there?
What was there
...
It's impossible
That we as these beings with souls had nothing to fill it with
I stopped lying to myself
I opened my self up
My heart became beating. Alive. Wonderful
Soft. Warm. Truthful
There was a god that could fill me to the brim
The interaction
Of two souls
Was so beautiful
And still is to me to this day
The two souls
Loving each other
Knowing each other
Learning each other
Eternally.
True fulfillment
Not a cope
That I had before
Not a dream
That I chased before
Not an illusion or lie I told myself
It was
Realer than it all
Truer
Fulfillment
Thank you for listening to my ted talk
Cya
-# yes
there is..??
yes there is
-# yes
maybe you’re right..??
-# yes
im sorry
for what
i don’t know.. i better get going..
admins, make sure to kick me, please, i joined without permission
Joined what
this server, now can i please abandon reality, for some time 🙏🙏
Love yourself
Cya now
ima leave this server, and close dm for some people, so i won’t bother them, i don’t belong here, really sorry
What
Wat
so for what i understood cat left the server and said they don't belong here that they joined without permission then i lost track
Iirc they got kicked. Can't confirm though
this arg is so confusing
i dont get it
who is even behind this anyways
if u look up exec_05 on namemc theres a discord acc linked
i tried to add it then nothing
They're not canonically apart of it. They're a fan
All characters in the series did not exist as registered accounts until after the Kunai and RGN video made it blow up in popularity
ah
so they prob used a disguise plugin in the series
yeah
th happened here?
If i would know i would tell you
Something with cat saying something ain't right to karamel and me
We just got philosophic or however that word is spelled
I think it's because she got in the server without permission. So she just adiosed out of here
She got kicked the first time so maybe that is the reason
Ahhhh maybe

this is whats been going on behind the scenes
if you have the time to watch the rest id really recommend tho
...does this count as self-promotion? lol
it honestly doesnt really matter if its self promo or not
😭
at least not in this scenario
watch the video please, i dont think it matters like at all
i watched it, jesus christ
I am currently at work :(

Oh wow
Please watch this its important
she commented on the vid, shes apparently moving on from the internet to work on herself
@void crater How old is strats
16 afaik
Oi let's not continue this conversation.
Unfortunately, we can't have discussion of illegal activities like this here, even though it does have relevance to the topic
I know this is a serious issue, but this server isn't the place for these discussions
If you do believe a crime has been committed, alert your local authorities
Yep
Can we talk about the Decayed part
Ok so the Decayed was your brain child. What did you originally plan for the series?
Yeah I have watched more of the video and I frankly cannot talk about the rest of the video. This is something that can't be talked about here (and it's not relevant to the DECAYED). However I want to talk more about the creative side of DECAYED
he mentioned it in the first segment of the video, but a cracked Minecraft launcher that would infect people's games or something along those lines
Yeah can you elaborate on that?
I don't got anything beyond that
Yeah that goes to Astra
I do know that strats didn't even try to continue the series before discontinuing it, since if they did they wouldve needed to ask me for help with some modded stuff which they said they would lmao
Modded stuff?
The 21st video (pretty early on in the video too I believe) wouldve needed a custom gui for architects terminal (those little things execs have with the hypixel-like guis, but with custom buttons and whatnot) which both astra and strats didn't know how to make, and both of them told me around a similar timeframe that they would need help with making said GUI
oh bruh
iirc they also already had like
Every video of the ending expect 23 conceptualised
wdym every video of the ending
There were meant to be 4 last videos (so in total 24 videos from the channel as a whole)
is what I meant
the 4 last ones I just called "the ending" because I don't think there wouldve been that much plot progression aside from lore dumping, I haven't seen the script, i just know they exist
thats mostly the idea i had i was still gonna develop it, but all i remember is when i presented it to strats like "what if we make this about a cracked launcher" before like reunion even released, i remember strats just went "no"
like straight up "no"
the biggest problem in the series is that i set it up in terms of characters and story so i could continue it myself and at the end everything would make sense and connect in one big thing
but strats shifting it from what i wanted made it basically like
create some unnecessary plot holes that we had to patch between episodes so we could write the next
and these would not have existed if we just kept going with my idea
and then we got to the end and the ending she settled with has like 4 major plot holes that like you physically cant deny
@void crater Were you able to get the channel back
no
she says she didnt claim the money from the account but she still owns the account and i dont have access to it so that still counts as taking my money
im sorry to hear about all of this honestly
oh yeah btw if you wanna know what the unexplained lore of strats' version of the decayed was, then uh
here it is
apparently I completely guessed this correctly
literally 2 minutes after I said that
What did strats do
The video explains it
Hmm. To be honest it does sound weakish if it's just that. Anything else you can elaborate on that, or is that all you can say right now?
not really cuz i was still developing it
it was eventually gonna have more cinematic videos like we got but it was gonna be way different
the whole jacinthe part wasnt even supposed to exist
Would you ever be interested in still developing a storyboard as like an alternative story to the decayed
Fair enough
It's unfortunate that the story diverged that greatly, but the early videos before the diverge didn't really show much about the cracked mc launcher
And honestly, the original premise does sound like a AlongCameJosh type of creepypasta video, even though that really isn't a bad thing what so ever.
But whatever, that's in the past, so it's time to move on.
so adminspace type stuff
Probably not
What plot holes?
i mention them in the video
what happens to serenemist
or the fact that you literally cant figure out what would happen after episode 20
i think the stigma around adminspace stuff is bad
if its executed well then why care
Exactly!
We should only really care if it is either:
- Executed so badly it's laughable
- An exact copy of someone else's execution with some terms swapped as if that disguises it
so is the Decayed gonna continue or is it… over?
It's over until further notice, from what I can see.
I'm assuming it's just done for the foreseeable future
Strats is off the Internet and astra moved on to something else
its over
strats says theyre off the internet, but theyre also a repeat offender so theres about a 87% chance theyre lying and have since created another alias to repeat it again
astra literally doesnt have access to the decayed channel anymore even if he wanted to continue it, he cant
and i doubt strats will be making any videos due to this
So basically... possibility of return isn't 0, but rather so close to 0 that God descending to Earth to show everyone a Loss meme is more likely.
Better chance of being eaten by sharks in your own home than seeing another video, but seeing another video isn't entirely impossible.
Decayed is over
hmmm got it
I mean, it's been left off at a good point at least.
I wasn't even expecting more after les fleurs.
I wasn't left thinking "where is the rest?". I couldn't even tell it wasn't finished until y'all started saying something in here.
Sure there are unanswered questions but I don't feel I need them answered. A little bit of mystery at the end of the day is okay.
In fact I feel like this fits in well with the Decayed. The Construct was not just the thing they were all trapped in - it was the story. And by destroying one, you destroy the other as well.
God should do that
imagine the first universal sighting of God is just him giving the pope a scribe of paper with
| ||
|| |_
Alternately he leaves the pope a message: 1 2 2 50
(As in the roman numerals I, II, II, and L)
No but seriously I do feel the story was complete at the end of les fleurs.
You can't get more poetic than "destroying the confines of the story ended the story because there was nowhere for the story to be", and the series was fond of poetic writing.
You can't convince me otherwise - having more would just be a sequel series, rather than a continuation.
not really, even in les fleurs you can see that the concept was slowly breaking, not immedietly destroyed
there was still room for more
In theory, yes
I also agree that les fleurs is a good ending
it leaves things vague enough to be interesting
the only issue is that serenemist disappears
beyond that, though, I don't really feel like the series needed additional content
So wait. The title of the series refers to what happens after les fleurs?
no, the jacinthe stuff wasnt intended and the name has always been the same
i dont know where the name comes from

i think its weird when the name is just made to sound cryptic?
but i guess with astras explanation of the actual original idea i can imagine somehow it being connected
u guys are overthinking, its called the decayed simply because they are decayed
during the series they dont have a physical body, they just use a minecraft character as their body
so in real life theres nothing in their body which would mean they decayed
Or are actively decaying
Maybe the real decayed were the friends we made along the way
That don't sound good
(the loss of friends as everyone died ingame)
Ig the real decayed was us
Ooooohh I'll take a loot at this
Christ
ngl i don’t want the Decayed to end but like it has lol
It’s a good ending ngl
I like it
Yes
I've said it before but I think this ending really does work
I'm looking forward to seeing future projects from the creators
Yeahhhh
vomits blehh, to mani filosofi (catsad)
awh, so much negativity, what did strats even do, she just wanted to create a series, that represents how we feel
tell me you didnt watch the video without telling me you didnt watch the video
im actually the person that made decayed i invited strats later on and the whole series was planned to be something else but she kept moving it away from what i had set up until then
the ending i had planned initially had nothing to dowith what actually happened
also you only really need to watch the first part which is like 12 mins
are you ok
yeah
so, you didnt have something like depression, or anixiety, while making the series?
nah, i just like the concept of series that talk about that kinda stuff
oh.. thats.. so..
like how short life is or inevitability that kinda stuff
its so pessimistic i know but its something i find really interesting
unusual, most people who enjoy philosophical topics usually have depression, or just feel upset, a lot
nah neither of those
yeah, life does seem short, i sometimes question it, a lot
im really sorry, thats beyond my limits
why me :c
life was just really difficult, and the philosophy wasnt something, that a young kitty could handle
ima adios, again, bye licks the screen
-# if only they knew, how difficult it is, to “be” someone who is always joyful, and excited, if only they didnt blame me for everything, if only they didnt deepen the hole in others hearts, without even knowing
-# everything hurts
-# and its all my fault, not even the smartest, most intelligent person would understand what its like, to always be blamed on, to always be trauma dumped on..
i dont belong anywhere
Aye nai
Wot
TwT that sucks 3;
(just saw the drama and vid and stuff)
Not related, don't post it here
But it's the decayed thing
but the series itself isn't related to the decayed
Alr
that's like posting images of hyacinths in here because it's a decayed reference
the guy probably just wanted to sneak in a lil reference

The decayed is officially over
sad
Thoughts have been thought, and behind the scenes I have come to the decision that THE DECAYED will be ending.
The plan was always to have an ambiguous 'ending' to the series, I wanted to do a few more episodes to explain more thoroughly, but as it seems, leaving it open to discussion and imagination would be the best option.I apologize for bringing up any hopes for future episodes, but seeing all the theories and speculations is very enjoyable and I hope to see more.
Thanks for watching!
Huh I was under the impression they’d already said this was the end
Oh wait that’s an old post
yeah i just didn't see anyone mention it in the last few months on the thread
and new people might be curious about it
:(
Banger series
well this thread is old, and maybe this isn't worthy of bumping this back to the top. heck, maybe this has already been discovered. but the game genie font is eerily similar to the capital letters used in the game font for the execs https://www.spriters-resource.com/custom_edited/gamegeniecustoms/asset/169522/
Sent this in the wrong forum. Repost here.
The repeated appearance of purple flowers in the timeloop video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IlVxkMWuNXY, is most likely a reference to "her", or Jacinthe, who bears purple colors.
The username sounds concerning
Which username
yours
Ah
Yes, i like firey stuff
Your house is not in danger, it is not within my reach
@granite oar here it is
ty
I found my theory very hard to explain, and I wanted to seperate into the parts. No worries this isnt about religions and its about mysticsm. I dont follow Gnosticsm and I am not try to make others believe or know about it. PS: Sorry for my bad englih.
Ⅰ - Introduction to Main Core; Gnosticism.
Ⅰ.Ⅰ Creation and Order of The Universe
There is a being, a female godly being named "Sophia." She descends from the greatest godly source, monad and she is an eon. Eons are beings which live in (syzygies) duo's and they dont do something without their partners and their consent. But, Sophia makes a critical mistake and she crates a being without his partner and her partners consent. That being is an Demiurge, an head one. Its name is "Yaldoboath" and because he doesnt trully understand the mystical system above him, beings like Sophia for example, he thinks he is the god. Thefore, he creates the material universe and thinks he is the god. There is 6 lower beings, his servants which known as arcons. Iao being the embodiment of fear and heavenly authority, Astaphanos is about deceiving and ilusions. Horaios is about loops and time. Sabaoth is about ruling, war, and rivalness. Adonaios is about the urge to control, emotion of superiority. Elaois is about the keeping the system is but in a strict way leaving no room for awarness.
Ⅰ.Ⅱ Levels Of Awarness
There is key differences between the textes but the levels of awarness of many textes are like what I am listing.
Ignorance/Sleep: -> This level shows that you have no idea whats going on about the world around you. You dont have the mind to understand that you are being deceived by arcons.
Awakening/Initial Gnosis -> This level shows that you have information that you are trapped, you are questioning. You are in a prison, you know it and you know that you are in that prison.
Deep Knowledge/ Preparation -> This level shows that you know about the cosmic origin. You grow a detachment from material desires. You PREPARE for spiritual ascend.
Gnosis -> You past every single aspect of material world. Arcons have no power on you, you are ascended. You are now a being, which is so powerfull you cant be deceived by Arcons.
Ⅱ - "THE DECAYED" Theory.
Ⅱ Symbolism
The "Jacinthe" straight up a metaphor for Sophia. As we learned from les fleurs, she doesnt has absoulute authority over it and she cant control it totally. And the general ruling of the "Concept" is up to "Keepers", she generally dont intervene with the system that much. My theory about the creation is Jacinthe created the Concept but its not a system, its not a "dimension" or "multiverse" as most of the people think and its an entity. This being has touch with our world, our reality and cant effect it. It can upload videos to the youtube, it can cypher codes for us to discover. It can think, it could take action. Paintings changing, grenzen being customized to the player, and fake Kargo all connect to this entity. When Thomas broke the grenzen of Mathew we see many grenzens like this. How come the people of this ranknigs know which room should look like what? Since they deleted their memories, and "Keepers" dont appear to know everything about the players since they can be overruled by them. And also we didnt see them having the commands or level of adminastration to change the inventory of the player. In that case, Concept is a godly entity which covers everything we seen in minecraft.
In this story our arcons are keepers, which the numbers fit (6 to 6) and their duty fits. They really are all about deceving the souls came into the concept and torture them as in the gnostic belief.
Ⅱ.Ⅱ Story's Finale and "Sentinent" Stuff
So, in the finale we see a vessel erasing a keeper by rejecting it and announcing them powerless, right before they ascend/transcend. This fits the idea of gnosticsm, because sandy became all that aware of himself he could outpower these entities. And the way they show us is like Sandy destroyed it. But the symbolism behind this is artitech doesnt has the power over sandy. And because the authority he claims over sandy is not possible because of his awanress, it stops being a concern. It shows us he overcome one of the keepers. And the way sandy fuses with the tree is showing us the true gnosis part.
Here is what I mean, we could think the "Concept" as an entity which acts like material worlds and holds the souls to itself, tortures them. But with the episode le fleurs, every soul overcomes the concept. In gnosticsm this means ascending to anohter level of awarness.. And with it destroyed everyone reaches deep realisation
this is probably my favorite arg that rgn has covered, not only is the story really interesting, but it’s lowk relatable?
like as a young adult male dealing with a chronic illness, I can relate to life just feeling like “doing and doing and doing” besides bed rotting and playing mc lol
