  There&apos;s a blast from the past. &nbsp;The fact that your particular role has changed so much never really occurred to me until now. &nbsp;I think you having less responsibility has been good for you and has let others find a place to speak up in rather than passively accept the consensus (I&apos;m one of them). &nbsp;I think we&apos;re very lucky that no one actively wants control, we&apos;re too old ;)

  People find it hard to keep a regular friend group together. You and the other Hermits managing to keep so many people connected, communicating, open with their emotions and compromising is nothing short of astounding and immensely admirable!

  Hey X! Thanks for giving a shoutout to the Hermitcraft wiki! As the top editor and someone who has spent the past 2 years trying to make sure every Hermitcraft episode is cataloged on the wiki, it makes me happy to hear that our efforts haven’t gone unnoticed. Great video, can&apos;t wait for number 3!

  This is definately a very under talked about subject in and around the Minecraft Youtube space. I think everyone wants the &quot;glamour&quot; of a successful video/series/smp but don&apos;t want or don&apos;t understand the hard work that goes on behind closed doors. In the end I think Hermitcraft does so well because in the end there players are also good friends.

  The problem I ran into when running a SMP was the lack of a team and despite how hard I tried I could not do everything myself. In that sense Xisuma is right clear communications and transparency is one of the key elements. If you have team members that are active and want to participate give them the chance. Even if they mess up sometimes they learn from that experience and try to be encouraging as a leader to them. If your with like minded friends and start as a small group it is easy to manage than having people in you don&apos;t know or that work against you. I think Hermitcraft success has been a multiplied combination of luck, good management and &nbsp;things aligning in favor for it.

  Sometimes it is just having one person that not afraid to speak up to initiate the conversation, and then going the extra mile to take notes and listen to ensure others success. In return their success is your success, and the group as a whole is rewarded. &nbsp;Hermitcraft is that result of the extra mile. &nbsp;You should be proud as well as everyone else regarding your accomplishments, and hopefully you are able stop, smell the roses, and soak it all in.

  A lot of these leadership principles apply in real life as well. It&apos;s always great to get a different perspective on things and this video does a good job of highlighting that.

  I wouldn&apos;t be surprised if it were simply an artistic choice, but I deeply enjoyed the visual that Hermitcraft administrative meetings happen <i>in game</i> and not over zoom or discord.

  Great leadership advice! All of those same principles apply to any other leadership role as well whether work, sports, community, etc. Also nice to hear that you had to learn/develop these skills over the years and that they didnt just come naturally. I think that can helps others understand that great leadership comes from those willing to learn and admit mistakes. Thanks Xisuma, this series has been fantastic so far.

  More often than not, those who are thrown into the role of leadership out of necessity rather than having seeked power, are the better leaders.
