Community Event Featured Buffoon S1e3 - Gabe Crocoduck

FEATURED BUFFOON
Season 1, Episode 3;

GABE CROCODUCK

Hosted by @HalfCat_ with consent from the interviewed subject


Out of really no request of all episode 3 of featured buffoon is here!
As you know from following Featured Wynncraftian, the right people are never interviewed. I believe it's high-time to highlight the people who have actually had an impact on the community.
In the third episode of the season we have ”professional” shitposter and mythical creature @Gabe Crocoduck !!!
------------------------------------------------------------------
​

Welcome! You’re the new shitposter on the block. Why Wynncraft and why shitpost.

I try to make people laugh sometimes, just feels good to have positive reception. 90% of the time I screw up and people end up staring at my post like “wtf”. Wynncraft because I saw a few other shitposters like YYGAYMER and how much they’re loved by the community, so I try to be like them, but I just end up looking like a tryhard.
​

Very inspiring! How did you find Wynncraft? Do you like the forums or the game more?

The story of how I found Wynncraft is a bit long. I saw two of my friends looking at a Wynncraft map in late 2016, so I decided to try it [Wynncraft]. I got stuck in Ragni Outskirts and gave up, didn’t return to the game for 2 years. At the start of this year I went to my friend’s house to play Minecraft with him, and we were supposed to play Hypixel, but because of an issue that happened (idk what happened honestly), I got banned. So, out of options, I told him “hey there’s this server called Wynncraft, wanna try it?” and he said ok. While HE got stuck in Ragni Outskirts, I got past the tutorial and it was then my Wynncraft addiction began. The second question is a little hard, to be honest, I like both equally. Both are full of great people you can talk to and meet up with, where you can share your jokes and have a laugh. The game itself (or more specifically WC1 Detlas) is also full of great people, so I find both equal.
​

Interesting. Is the ban the reason you’re an ”anti-hypixelist”?

Yeah, I got banned for nothing, like I went off for like a week, and when I came back, I was banned for a month, starting from the day before. And I do recall some MVP++ kid screaming at me for some reason, about how he was gonna get the mods to ban me or some shit. The mod who responded to my appeal even said that “my attempt to lie was flat out terrible”. When I posted a thread on the forum for help, the toxic ass community kept saying that “you deserve to be banned” and shit like that. So yeah. Somewhat because of that ban, but also because of the toxic community.
​

How does one make a shitpost that isn’t shit for the uninformed and which one is your favorite out of all.

Hehe... I don’t really know what makes up a truly good shitpost. I don’t know a lot of “Do’s” but I know a hell ton of “Do not’s”. One thing some (or most) people do it make puns out of content. Like using “Bob’s Seal of Approval” and calling it a marine mammal. One “Do Not” is to try and make fun of in-game content using problems that are felt by the players. Like saying that calling Mage weak on the website is bad will only get you a bunch of confused forums users. Another thing not to do is to use random content and relate it to obscure content, that’s even worse. One of my favourite shitposts is YYGAYMER’s “Wynncraft’s Item Naming Skill Is Too Helpful!”, that one really cracked me up. One of my personal shitposts I’m very proud of is “Thanos”, that sort of relation between non-Wynncraft things and Wynncraft content and facts is really quite good. If you can find a link like that, you need to provide enough elaboration, but not so much to the point where it’s oversaturated and the joke is just ruined.
​

I did really like the seal of approval one. Okay, last question. What is the best meme?

Hmm...
There is no best meme, different people see different memes differently. My personal favourites would probably be E and Flex Tape, but in years to come, those will die out, and there will be better (or worse) memes.
​

Thank you Gabe, very cool!
