The Master Baiters

The Origin
Before Master Baiters, there were a select few with fishing rods. GoldenCookie420 and Baron bribed Snakob into giving them rods, strings, sticks, and a few other select items. Poro asked Boone for a rod and was given one. These players controlled the queue economy until a Renaissance took place.

Generation 1
On April 9th, 2020, GoldenCookie and Baron started to AFK fish, gaining stacks and stacks of queue wealth. Poro's rod broke before he could fish up a mending rod, so the distribution of rods started when GoldenCookie started gave out mending rods, Boone periodically doing so as well. This distribution led to the first group of fishers. The six members consisted of Caudimorda, W3DontKnow, EnergyCorex2, GoldenCookie420, Baron, and Psychedelic_Poro. Back in this age, you died from falling, so the five fished at Monkey Island, using the tree jump to survive. Other people became interested in the fishing, and a spread of fishing rods began, starting the second age.

Generation 2
Poro was mostly responsible for the second generation of fishers, throwing every single spare rod he had. Doing this, he gave birth to a new set of members, including notable names such as Loyl, Tlpa, Dilly, Jade, Shexar, and Coldex. This explosion of rods led to a new goal - the normalization of mending rods. This group wanted to start a full-fledged economy with the end goal of making it into Skyborn, a group of elite fishers with large riches. One such member who aspired to join Skyborn would go on to start the newest generation of fishers.

Generation 3
On the main server, Creep_Assassin and Poro had traded, sharing a small bond. This bond grew in queue, where Creep saw Poro as a path to queue fishing and (since Boone would not just give Creep access) to Sky Born. Taking a liking to Creep, Poro gifted Creep a mending rod. Creep used this rod to fish his way into power, starting the Master Baiters discord. He wished to unite those who wanted to fish in queue, and also offered a section for organized queue trading to keep the black market thriving. Creep also collaborated with Boone to create a fully automated shop that can be used to buy, sell, and trade goods. Creep enlisted vibe_rater and YorgaKi as mods, as they were the first to join the Discord, also having good in-game relations with each other. Vibe_rater received a rod from Poro, and Yorga got his rod at a later date. Creep asked Poro to be a mod as well, but Poro refused.

The Renaissance
ViViDDiViV reached out to Creep, proposing a partnership between the Master Baiters and Purity Trading Hub. This would include dedicated channels with the other discords' links, as well as an agreement for the head members to do most of their business on the respective discords. This partnership brought in dozens of members, throwing Master Baiters over 100 members in under a week. Members such as TueJei, Poro, and several others stayed in Queue to fish for extended amounts of time. For some, Queue was better than the main server.

Boone (Queue God) got sick of trading fish for Iron/Gold Nuggets (nuggies), and set up a shop at the end of Red Parkour with plugins so players could do those trades themselves. However, this didn't stop the Black Market (the player-driven part of the economy for non-shop items) from growing. In fact, it stoked the flame into a fervent forest fire. Loyl and Poro were the two heads of the black market for a time until Loyl was banned for auto clickers. Mortem rose as a contender until he was tempbanned for using an auto clicker. As the Discord progressed, Ender_Slayers – and in time other members – became Gold Trusted Traders. This meant they could also open up Discord shops, leading to a prosperous queue economy.

Boone also created the Fisher's Union, a place where both Sky Born and Master Baiters could come together in peace to trade and fish. Creep made a channel for those with access to nominate and vote on others who – if welcomed – would also be given access by Boone. This wasn't an act of Elitism, but rather of keeping a balanced economy, sort of like earning achievements and unlocking new areas in other games.
