At least they didn't make a poorly programed parody like they have in the past.

A better question would be how I'm supposed to make arrows for my bow. You need feathers for that! At the very least, you can shave a sheep and be out with it.

No matter, since I'm getting into Planet Explorers, having gone off Minecraft years ago.

PETA probably cares more about trolling gamers than saving animals. Remember Pokemon black and blue?

And trolling non-gamers as well. Just look at some of the publicity stunts they have done in recent years.

PETA trying to get people to stop eating meat (and stuff that PETAs for) by making a Minecraft server?! That's so fucking stupid

Well, PETA is apparently creating a Minecraft server to combat the abuse of animals in Minecraft. So no more killing sheep, cows, pigs or the newer animals now there. Personally, I don't understand why PETA has to be so weird and pretty extreme. The premise of the organization should be something we all agree with, which is the ethical treatment of animals. I am pretty sure most people believe in this from vegetarians to the most rabid meat eaters. So it just looks like the latest outreach of weirdness by PETA.


Frankly, setting up a Minecraft server with custom rules doesn't strike me as extreme or weird.

See, it's because PETA is only into senseless killing of animals that doesn't accomplish a purpose. See their animal rescue services where over 90% of the animals taken in are killed.

What, they have animals fucking there or what?

It probably has more to do with the gratuitous gore in their scare images.

As for the Minecraft server, the message I'm getting is "harming animals is a no-no, but strip mining an entire island is A-OK".

Makes you wonder if they changed certain recipes. Be kinda hard to enchant anything without books...

Though to be fair, if they want to play like that, who are we to tell them they can't?
