As a former Xbox employee, I can tell you that Xbox supports BLM completely as does Microsoft. Just get off the internet completely, plz.
I have some incredibly exciting news that I have been dying to share with all of you! π₯³
I'm no longer with Mojang Studios. I have decided it's time I FINALLY pursue something that I have been passionate about for over 10 years: directly helping Minecraft communities! π (1/2)
Dispelling
#Minecraft
myths below!
π₯ Nether update is NOT coming out today, no release planned for May 4th either
π₯ No one is being ignored, no codebase is dying- we care about you all!
π₯ Minecraft is NOT shutting down in Dec
π₯ Dungeons is not free for Java players
Yes, these are officially licensed
#Minecraft
costumes. Yes, I just bought them. Yes, I will wear them on an upcoming livestream. π Taking suggestions on where to wear them in comments. π
To anyone who needs a reminder:
π You are valuable
π You are precious
π You are lovable & deserving of love
π You are enough (& not too much either!)
π Things will eventually get better (they have to)
Iβm always here for anyone who needs a friend- my DMs are open. π
I'll be working with
@RazzleberriesAB
, Marketplace Partners, Java server owners, YouTubers/livestreamers, content creators, and of course our wonderful competitive community. I will be YOUR
#1
advocate, cheerleader, and mentor. I'll have some more exciting news later! (2/2)
Donβt worry, Bedrock players! Remember that you also will get stuff in betas before Java players get them in snapshots. Bedrock & Java are equally important to us. π
Imma stop you all right here bc youβre already blowing up my Twitter: NO there is NOT a Minecraft 2, there wonβt be a Minecraft 2 & anything you see talking about Minecraft 2 is 100% fake.
Top ways Iβve misspelled Minecraft while typing on my phone:

Lesson: No matter how much you do something, you can always make a mistake... and thatβs OK. Mistakes are how we learn.π
I'm in the
#Minecraft
menu listening to the music. I STILL am in awe & so honored that I've been working professionally on Minecraft for 6 years now, 5 of those at Mojang Studios. I will never stop loving Minecraft & have no plans of ever leaving. You're all stuck with me. ;)
Hey folks, want to clear something up here.
#Minecraft
Java snapshots ARE NOT releases. The Nether update HAS NOT been released. Java snapshots are like Bedrock betas. The Nether update- the actual update- will come out at the same time for Java & Bedrock. π
@PeasantBoy17
@notch
Because he doesnβt realize itβs Minecraft community members who are making these maps & feeding their families with the money made from them
Things we are NOT ADDING in the 1.16 Nether Update:
β Hedgehogs
β Lava sharks
β Coronavirus
Seriously, folks- unless it comes from someone who legitimately works at Mojang, please donβt take it seriously.
Also,
#Minecraft
is not shutting down. Weβre still not & never were.
Had a very bad day today. Iβm really struggling with depression & feelings of worthlessness. π
Big hugs to everyone who is worried, sad, and/or struggling... or just because you need a hug. π
You are not alone.
π You are loved.
π€ If you need a friend, Iβll be your friend.
π€ If you need help, donβt be afraid to ask for it.
π You matter & you can make a difference.
#WorldMentalHealthDay
The beauty of
#Minecraft
is that thereβs no age limit or many limits at all other than your own imagination. You can be whatever you dream in the world of your dreams. Itβs people of all ages, nationalities, etc. coming together through the universal human need to create. π
Also want to add that for the last several months, numerous Bedrock players have been telling us to focus on parity & bug fixes before we add more features. That is what we are doing, as you requested. So you canβt expect Bedrock betas with the Nether until we finish that.
Also I still love all of my
@Mojang
family so much! ππ As I said in another comment, the friendships I have made there are life-long. I'm still friends with people I've worked with previously & always will be. A new job doesn't mean you leave people behind π
Hey folks, we are not making
#Minecraft2
- we already announced this a few years ago. The βsourceβ of this rumor is a bot that makes up fake sequels; itβs not real. No Minecraft 2, and weβre not shutting
#Minecraft
down in Dec either. Thatβs all just fake stuff. π
If you get an email from Mojang saying we need you to verify account info, itβs fake & a scam- itβs not from us! Itβs from someone trying to steal your account. We will never email you asking you for your account credentials. Picture of a fake email below. Plz RT!
#OnlineSafety
Gentle reminder to the wonderful
#Minecraft
community that the
#NetherUpdate
isnβt out yet on any platform. We have development builds (snapshots & betas) that people can playtest but the full update isnβt out yet. We donβt have a date for it but we are all working hard on it. π
I know itβs just a standard certificate (& I started in β13 as a vendor) BUT I have to say that this made me feel appreciated. π₯° Is it silly if I printed this out & framed it? π I never thought Iβd ever be good enough to work at MS or Mojang.
#LifeAtMojang
#MicrosoftLife
Please donβt attribute Microsoft for things in Minecraft. Like what they do or hate what they do, Mojang Studios makes ALL the decisions for Minecraft- Bedrock AND Java, not Microsoft. Please help educate people about this. π
Also watch
@_JaneyLaney
tomorrow/today on Xbox!
If you like/retweet something that is racist or bigoted, I will unfollow you. This isnβt up for debate. People are being murdered regularly in my country at the hands of white supremacist terrorists. Sorry to get serious here but I have to take a stand. Love more, hate less. π
Parents everywhere: PLEASE PLEASE tell your children (of ANY age under 18) to NOT under any circumstances tell people in any chat how old they are or any details about themselves. Remind them, too!
Please RT. Letβs get the word out so we can help keep kids safe online.
WE
WON!!!!!
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHH!! (Insert lots of my excited squeals & jumping around here)
Proof positive that the
#Minecraft
community is THE ABSOLUTE BEST!
LOVE YOU ALL!! ππππ₯³π₯³
@GoldenJoysticks
I am so honored to call this server home. This is just another great example of awesome stuff that we, the
#Minecraft
community, can do! LET'S GOOOOOOO!
Also...
β I canβt get you into the Dungeons beta
β I canβt help you with account issues (only Support has access)
β No news on servers or Realms for PS4
β I canβt fix your internet, router, or NAT type
β I canβt take suggestions- put them on
Clarification on the Dec 10/11
#Minecraft
Buzzy Bees release: Java & most folks on Bedrock (including PS4 Bedrock!) will get the update on Dec 10. Due to time zones & update rollout times, some folks may not get it until the 11th. π Remember it takes time to roll out releases.
Fun fact: did you know that there are only 8 people working on the new Bedrock graphics engine? This tiny team works tirelessly every day to make a new engine to support 13 different platforms PLUS VR/MR! Everyone give them some love- they absolutely deserve it! π
Some of us realized today that
#Minecraft
solves the whole βwhich came first: chicken or eggβ dilemma.
Definitely the chicken bc it spawned in.
Youβre welcome π
WOOOOOOOT! Congratulations
@ibxtoycat
! πππ Anyone else want to try? (Remember itβs gotta be on
#Minecraft
Bedrock because it needs to be the harder Wither.)
Yelling at us, threatening us, & insulting us will NOT:
* Make updates come out sooner
* Make your hardware perform better
* Fix bugs faster
* Make something you want get added to the game
* Conjure up a release date
πto the vast majority of the community that doesnβt do this!
Wooooooot! ππ Absolutely loving our new name & logo! Iβm very happy to be part of
#MojangStudios
! Also as the blog post said, a HUGE THANK YOU TO YOU, our absolutely wonderful

There are no werewolves, vampires, sirens, or pixies in

in the base game & no, we don't have plans to add them to the base game. Where are you guys coming up with this stuff, for reals? :D
Also maybe we'll have more livestreams right here this week- stay tuned! :)
I want to live in a world where

PARENTS- it is YOUR responsibility to teach your children how to behave on social media, including what can happen if they are rude or abrasive. If you canβt do this, take your kid off social media. Itβs your job to protect them!
2020 was not the best year for some of us. As we go into 2021 donβt forget...
π You are loved
π You are worthwhile
π You are enough
π You are not alone
Be safe & letβs all go into a better year together. π€ So much love to you, wonderful friends.

TIL that if you have a corrupted world in
#Minecraft
Bedrock, every time you try to open the world the game will try to fix it. It may take many tries, but in theory eventually the game will fix it (hopefully). Just make sure you have enough free space allocated to the game.
I promise I will never mind if you @ me on a post, especially if you are showing me something cool you made. I genuinely enjoy chatting with everyone in the
#Minecraft
community & seeing what amazing things you all do! π Also here if youβre having a bad day & need a hug.
Always remember that when things are rough & you feel like you just canβt muster up the energy to even get out of bed...
π You arenβt alone.
π Itβs ok to not be ok.
π Forgive yourself.
My DMs are open even if you just want someone to listen.

If you retweet things that are racist or bigoted, I will unfollow you. If you threaten LGBTQIA+ and/or BIPOC (Black, Indigenous, People of Color), will also report you & block you. White supremacists/bigots are not welcome. Zero tolerance to hate speech & willful ignorance.
Some people will just never like you, no matter what you do. Itβs no fault of yours, itβs just a sad fact of life.
For example...
π’When I answer questions but donβt give people the answers they want, I get called annoying/condescending/idiot/bad at my job
Question thread! Please ask any questions about
#Minecraft
here & I will try my best to answer. Hopefully this will help us help each other get more info out. π
See? Having a verified Twitter account isn't the end-all, be-all. :) You all know who I am without a blue checkmark (and I can keep chatting with you all right now because of it) Unverified Twitter has good, awesome, smart, and wonderful people too (like you!) <3
Question for everyone: why did you pick the username/gamertag that you did?
My reason is boring: my name is Helen & I like angels/try to be like an angel. π
Also a reminder that
#Minecraft
has a zero tolerance policy towards hate speech. This policy went into effect previously & we publicly posted it last year. Please feel free to pass around this link π
βWhen are servers/Realms coming to PS4?β

What do you think of the new emotes? (Please be honest but please also be civil. ππ)
β³οΈ Hey, you β³οΈ
Yes, you reading this right now
There is something special about you that no one else has or will ever have
Donβt stop. Donβt give up. Keep going. You have much more to share with the world
You do- you really do
You are so much more than you think you are π
@ThatMumboJumbo
Well as Iβve had the pleasure of meeting you IRL, I would personally also back you as mayor. π Iβm not famous or anything but you have my support.
Iβm so sorry everyone but Iβm struggling with mental health issues. Iβll see if some of my RL crew can post the Minecraft QotD in my stead.
Remember that you are loved, you are valuable, & please stay safe. ππ€
Wonderful community members whom I adore, please remember that for the next few days most of us here at Mojang will be taking time off to spend time with our loved ones for the holidays. I hope you have the very happiest of holidays and/or joyful days. π
Just a reminder that if anyone is feeling sad, anxious, nervous, depressed, angry, etc. that my DMs are always open & I'm here for you.
I'll just listen unless you specifically ask me for advice. This year has been so rough for everyone. You're not alone.
