I love this style of editing, its like a SunnyV2+CoffeeZilla, but with CalebIsSalty's own twist.
Except hopefully without the controversial beliefs of SunnyV2
Couldn’t agree more
@@totallyreyalfactsfsfscontroversial?
It's more like Brandon FM
yeaaahaha
As someone who used to mod melon as an admin alongside MadG and the rest of that amazing staff team, i can agree that hohos had always talked down to us for making simple mistakes and would violently lash out at us in staff meetings and in DMs because it would "ruin" his reputation for looking like a bad owner. i was always uncomfortable with the way he treated other staff and being highly inappropriate in VC. The most vulgar comments that came out of his mouth, racist things like saying the n word countless times, degrading shit towards other people. it was highly disgusting coming from someone who i thought was a good person and had a high rep to hold, so i resigned from the team because it was getting tiring from having to deal with the bullshit he put us through and im so glad i did 🙏 this was an amazing video caleb and tysm for helping bring light into the situation ❤
I was there as a mod during this time and can confirm this comment. I’m lucky to have met Jayden and the kind community she’s a part of. She’s one to trust about this
@@virelslolI still have screenshots of how I was treated as a mod by hohos and how no one stood up for me when I needed someone. If you want to join the game, let’s play ball
@@virelslolI'm sorry, were you a staff member? Because if not then why are you saying anything against my personal comment. You're entitled to your wrong opinion but I have multiple screenshots from what Nick has said to me, and have heard countless comments about me when I was a staff member and when I left. Not only that but there are multiple witnesses to his behavior against very few people who thinks he was justified for doing this.
@@virelslol stfu 9 year old. hop off ur mums laptop
@@virelslol how would you know its cap?
editing is so clean i love it
NOXVITOSSSSSS LES GOOOOOO I SUB YOU IM BIG FANNNNNNNNNNNNN
you sir absolutely smashed it out of the park when it comes to editing. This server was doomed from the start however. Pay to win is a cancerous practice that Mojang themselves banned via their TOS. its why Ytbers Like Duper Trooper, Salc1 and many others started making videos about taking these kinds of servers down. But, back to the video you made, this is a winning editing style you got here. a little tweaking of how you present each topic you cover and i think you will make it big. Keep on improving man.

The P2W wasn't even really an issue (when it comes to "the downfall of the smp") It was just the lack of experience from the new owners, the lack of new updates and content and that one shitty og owner
I was also a sr mod on MelonSMP, and hohos was never short of a crazy flare.. i had worked with him years previously also on Chasecraft, avatarcraft, and minealong, he brought many servers down, and treated everyone disgustingly. i would always get accused of things because everyone wanted to believe him, and he had a thing where he would flirt with most of the females in the staff team, and even some out of it just to make himself better, i was removed because of "alligations:" of me starting a revolution against him, which led to my banning permanently. Im glad you made this video, it gives us justice!
@@corruptioncookieofficial I was widely known as Sr-mod Gem, i changed my name frequently but it always had gem in it, idk the specific name i had back then.
me and all my friends used to have this giant cactus farm that generated a LOT of cactus. we became rich and really enjoyed/loved this smp. we opened a few pwarp's and then saw the message on the discord it was shutting down. some of my friends bought the berry rank but I didn't. we built houses and stuff, so when it shutdown we were quite sad. I wouldn't say it was a waste of time though because we had fun while it lasted. thanks caleb for telling us this. I never knew that melonsmp had a darkside.
Caleb is the one TH-camr who gets my whole watch retention
appreciate you :)
@@CalebIsSalty I’m here cause of you my friend!
if he gets your whole watch retention then why did you comment this 2 minutes after it came out. You can't have watched the whole 13 minute video

As a former active MelonSMP Player and a brother of someone who used to play Dream Fandom SMP, I am pleased that my friends can finally realize that I WASNT JOKING ABOUT DREAM FANDOM SMP.
What was your ign
I remember the good days on apple and mango before they all combined. I was friends with the richest on apple forget his name. And was married to zucchinibred
What was your brother ign?
As a former Sr. Mod from MelonSMP, this is all very accurate. The community was amazing and I miss it so much. It was just sad to see Melon fall because of careless owners.
REAL I MISS MY TIME THERE
Caleb’s videos NEVER disappoint 💪
best pack maker
video was made SOO WELL with insane sound design & vfx, great stuff dude you never fail to impress.
thank you :)
We already know this is going to go crazy.
how are you not at 100,000 subscribers already?! this content is 🔥
Bro I see you on like every channel I’m subbed to
I mean it's fire, it's legit mascot now🔥️🔥️🔥
As a player who nearly wasted 1 year of my life playing grinding this server achieving ranks 70k+ coins (of course as a free player) i think i wasted a chunk of my time for nothing, it made me addicted and at last it left me in a sense of regret.
As for the reason of why all of the players left / leave the server was its "MEGA" reset of all its 3 most active servers " watermelon, apple, mango ( server names)" so they rested them all trying to make it a unified server they hyped up the new server but the only mistake they made was take all the player items (op items ) all there coins just my 78k coins were well over 500$ there were people with 300k in watermelon so overall top 30 players of 3 server alone just coins value were above 70k in value irl.
Well now at least i dont get addicted in time-consuming game with no real meaning
i remember madG. never knew he quit. i spent $10 on melon and fell for the trap. thanks for making this video
Me and my friend (who we literally used to upload together on this smp) would play often. every day, home from school, usually with another couple of friends. every second on melon was fun, until the server reset, making us lose everything. all our kits, our ranks, money we spent on the server. the owner & the mod team were terrible, not dealing with scams, and even abusing players more often than not.
Yo bro are you still in their discord
Renamed to Urban Hangouts
WOW THE EDITING IS ELITE! Such a great video and good job! Keep up the amazing work you do and congratulations on TH-cam rank!
from an editor to another editor, i love your stuff so much man
The editing is = 🔥🔥🔥 Keep up the good work !
oh man I used to be such good friends with hoho's back in 2020 I think we are still friends on snap chat. Him and his whatever group of partners he could grasp his hands on for business opportunities then would like literally copy and paste the same server layout just rebranding the name of the server, and as soon as those servers would begin to fail he just found a new group of partners that could get him the money he wanted. Funny enough, he just used a bunch of ranks bought from a block game server to buy himself a few 6 figure rides... what a life tho frfr!
I staffed a few servers he managed here and there then upon figuring out this information I slowly got out of touch with him :P
As an extremely well recognized player on melon in 2022, I noticed the downfall of the server as the playerbase slowly shrank. I quit the server shortly before an event that I refer to as "the purge" took place. In the time of this event, many months of builds and hard work (including a famous hotel I had spent weeks building, "terrahotel") were abandoned and left to be griefed by other players. Following this event, the server had fully reset (including paid items) and had effectively lost most of it's playerbase. Edit: Thank you, Caleb for providing insight on this topic (:
What was your ign?

@@literally_brey Doesn't seem familiar, but thx
np@@I_Eat_Apple
@@literally_brey i remember you. i was a mod back in 2022, Kxr1mMC
I remember crashing that server back when it was pretty small and duping stuff to fuck up the economy lmao
I used to play on this. The owner told me to go unalive myself when I told him it was pay 2 win.
Being one of the richest players in MelonSMP, and the owner of /pw hell (an ocean monument made up of diamond and netherite)... I still remember the good old days.. While showing off my builds to other moderators and staff members- I remember hohos being the one who discouraged me.... I still remember those days when I recently bought the mystery sword (Sharp 10)... and showed it to my friends- and few days later... A god damn sharp 20, 25 and 50 swords were released. I still remember my broski dark_warrior from the server.
Overall I had to quit cuz of the P2W stuff and after I rejoined an year later (April 2023)... The server went through a reset. Deleting my entire inventory and everything I did for the server. The thing that still remained was the rank I had (which I got donated for)....
Thank your caleb for getting these old nostalgic memories back into my head. Good old days...
Chxrlie also tried to give $500 dollars to hackers to stop crashing the server😂
I REMEMBER THIS 😂
so funny
LMAO
As a x-mod during melons start of the reset, there were some very shady things going. I was only a mod then left as well. Hohos and Dayton vanished, it was only when hohos left that Dayton made a message then went MIA. I loved the server, staying up almost till 3:00 AM to protect from dupers. I was probably the most active staff member during that time period, so was my manager who I became really good friends with. They told me more about Melon's past. As I spent more time there I uncovered more secrets that were not the greatest looks. I never new hohos personally but the way he acted to people on the staff discord was rude. We never had staff meetings, when I was there as people didn't care about the server. I now regret defending the server looking back how shitty it was.
Didn’t you abuse your perms as a staff member and get demoted lmao
@@Durner-mk8si Nice alt
yeah puffs you probably were one of the best staff members
This editing style is crazy
ahhhh thank you!!! :)
Doubt you’re going to see this but great vid! I used to be a long time mod for Charlie back in 2019 for when he streamed Fortnite on TH-cam and then transferred to DreamFandom SMP. Before it all went downhill he was a genuine kid making like 10k a month of TH-cam and other stuff, he then found out how rich he could get off of Minecraft servers and rebranded to Melon smp, I got demoted to helper because I was supporting a sr. Mod to get paid because Charlie was making enough money and already paying other people. He got all mad at me and then finally banned me from the server. That was in like 2021 and I was kinda shocked but I will always remember the good old days back on Dream Fandom when everyone was friends because there was only a few of us. But yeah Great video, good job on the research, you only missed a little non important stuff.
The editing style alone something u gotta appreciate
Yooo nice editing man!!!
Really love watching these types of videos. Also the music you chose was DOPE!!!
I love your vids man. Good luck!!
As someone who plays melon it’s kinda sad because they had a realm called survival and I had 70days of playtime I was in top gems which is game money and top in kills and they just closed it a few days ago because survival wasn’t making enough money to have it still open. But they said they’re having 10 new things coming out in like a week but I wished they would reset OP survival to make it fair for those who are going to from survival to OP
You're like the only channel I never skip any videos, I WATCH THEM ALL. 🔥🔥🔥, fr good job tho, love ur vids.
i love the disrupt tv,coffeezilla editing style!
Melon was my first smp I played and it was fun! All I did was build and relax. I never had pvp battles and it's sad to see the downfall of Melon.
Friends and I also played Melon. But the pay to win issue was apparent while playing.
@@J4n4rchysame, I quit the server shortly before the lvl 50 items came out
Amazing intros as always. Good video!
This is a really sad story. I am a staff member on OneblockMC, and our owner is reletavely inactive, however we have an admin team who care about the server and player base and are incredibly dedicated. I hope that can prevent something like this from happening. I love the community and especially that within staff. I suppose it’s a “pay to win server” but it’s ranks and kits are decently easy to get without paying real money, I bought the top rank for in game currency. The kits are cool, but there are better items in crates from bossfights which happen 5 times a day. This makes it easy to compete on the server without spending a cent.
I used to be staff on this server but got removed for accidently finding and using an exploit. For context, up until recently I've been using a horrible PC so a lot of the times things in game are extremely laggy for me. After I was removed I kind of forgot about the server but came back to see a ton of the staff just gone. Thanks so much for making this video!
I used to have over 400 thousand coins and 4 billion on that server before they reset it. Such a sad way to see it end
bro is coffeezilla but minecraft pixels
Bro is the cleanest documentary MC branded youtuber and thought I wouldn't notice 🔥
This guys videos are too good for only 30k subs, we need this guy at 100k right now!
I used to play on this w/ my friends it was fun for a while..
Basically my friend got banned by toxic admins so we stopped playing but at one point they reset the hole map so when we all logged on again (my friend who got banned on an alt) are base was gone:(
Im pretty sure hohos is now at the FadeCloud network
As someone to modded and resigned during all this I think you have made a great video here Caleb.
I remember joining it with my brother. Though at that point in time it wasn’t much of a “pay to win” server, just a place the have fun. I haven’t played on it since then because I got a new computer and forgot the ip, sad to see how a smp I played on almost every day turned into this.
this editing is AMAZING
fr
just one minor point with the money at 2:08, because of the divider (in this case a $ sign) I'm pretty sure most people will assume you read the left side first, then the right side, not both at once as you set it up for them to do
I know I did
Dude ur editing skills give me chills, pls you need to join the lifesteal smp with clown, parrot zam etc
3:53 it’s was thriving💀💀💀💀😂😂
as someone who wasnt a mod but still played I was sad to find out why it was shut down as this was tho only server I played
Hey man im an editor and I can really pick out how much effort these edits take. You put time and effort and I respect it. I like the low FPS style you put for your clips and just want u to know that you are unique man keep going.
I remember someone I'd hang out with in VC telling me they were working on this server as a dev.
Today, I remembered how i used to play on this server and i tried to log on. Didn't work. I then tried to go into the discord but it wasnt in my server list anymore. Then i clicked on youtube and found this video. Thank you for this information. I really miss the server but now that i know what was going on behind the scenes i am just sad.
It's kinda sad for me that melon smp is gone. I miss MadG and Aweexa, they're my favorite staff members because they are really interactive around players
you are becoming my favourite youtuber, watched only 4 videos and they are all so good jus enjoying them
havent been watching minecraft for a few months, came back and saw that you have 30k, i used to watch you when you had less than 5k, growth is insane keep it up yo 🔥
Editing is insane keep it up bro TH-camr like you deserve 1m subs
caleb is too good at making these types of videos hes gonna hypnotize me aaa
😂😂
Great video! but uh, i couldn't really hear u over the music so like... fix plz? :D
I was watching this while playing minecraft lol also great video! Editing is really good! :D
As a former melonsmp player, starting early 2022, I can say that this was one of the best servers out there. As soon as I joined, I was welcomed and then was given a bunch of stuff by a kind person. No matter how many servers I try to grind, they dont feel the same as melon did. Thankfully, I still have some melon friends added, but its extremely sad to see its downfall, not to mention the amount of staff that actually were dedicated to the game. _fish6169 here, to all the people I was unable to say goodbye to in melon, due to quitting right after the restart, thank you for all the amazing memories, including the drama 😂. Love you all, melon players and former staff. ❤️
congrats on youtube rank!! (This editing is amazing btw!)
hohos was also an owner for a server called AvatarCraft for a very short time. I played before and during his ownership. He had builders create an entire custom world. Safe to say the server died after he became owner. The server was closed a year ago. Miss you AvatarCraft.
i remember avatarcraft too, what was your ign?
GamerLink468 lol
@@lumalee-p8t omg i remember you!
I used to run the second biggest empire in this smp With 42 victories and 2 Loses and it got taken down because not a single member had some sorta vip💀
Lmao, btw hohos has a new server called respawn, i was briefly staff on it and when in vc with hohos i recall melon having been mentioned several times. Thanks for providing context to those conversations i was so lost back then lmao
6:00 small mistake
amazing video though,its a very intresting topic with good editing
As a big player on the server I can’t deny that this is the truth I ruined most of the servers eco anyways so LET IT BURN TO THE GROUND
Bro i remember when u were at 1.1k congrats bro on your growth lovely video aswell
i used to play melon smp so much and i loved it but idk what happened anymore, all i know is it got overruned by hackers and shut down i think (this was posted before i watched the vid)
The BH song in the intro 🔥🔥🔥
YES dude
glad someone finally noticed 🙏🏻😂
Funniest thing about servers is that once pandemic died down, so does staying indoors. People already moved on with their lives which, for servers is definitely bad news. Less active players, less revenue possibilities. It's just the way of life.
You have to show how you edit so well
man i really love ur content for real like ur edit ur way of talking stories is amazing
Nooooooooooooooooooo. My heart dropped as soon as I saw that PFP. Good work, Caleb.
hell naw bro same price as the submarine ticket
is that a brockhampton instrumental at 0:19?? 🔥
you know it B)
the amount of hardwork the editing took for the amount of subs u have makes me go crazy.
I played this server daily pre-reset and knew few helpers and staff well, I’d also met hohos a few times. It was a very fun server by all means and I didn’t realise what actually happened with this server and what was going on beneath the surface, things I wouldn’t know.
Bro this video brought me back to 2021. I remember finding Melon SMP and playing it every weekend. I even remeber seeing Chxrlie online. I dont remember why but i just stopped playing the server at one point.
OOF THE EDITING OMG ITS AMAZING
The editing style in one word is just 🔥
As the founder of MelonSMP, it was quite the journey
you have balls for commenting here
bro this editing style is so good. keep up the good work!
Nice vid, talk about the history of Alpine Client
I used to play and was a big player on this server. I would say that the mod team and the developers screwed themselves with made them lose profit. They then tried to make almost everything pay to win. This made people hate it.
calbissalty be like: looking for a new video idea, oh, melon smp, this should be good.8 min video comming up
all a joke
Love the editing
This is so sad i used to play on this server
I remember this I played on it. Until I kept getting killed and I raged quit
This is some of the best editing I have seen in a while.
Incredible editing as always, Caleb.
this editing... wow its actually incredible! so much attention to detail bravo
editings goated my guy 🗣
lets collab
MelonSMP vid when?
the editing just keeps getting better and better! I love your videos! keep it up!
Like no way, the editing and the style of the videos don't fit a youtuber with 30k subs. You deserve much more than 30k!!
seeing you grow from 200 to 31k is heartwarming
love from india btw
dayum this video is really well edited, underrated youtuber
I used to staff here lol, this server was crazy. owner was always greedy. The server wasn't always that pay2win but was always very shady with staff
i've said it once and i'll say it again, ur editing makes these videos so entertaining and enjoyable to watch
