MinecraftOnline Slang
- So, what? And why?
Freedonia is a very long-standing and tight-knit community bolstered by a large history and map. In any circumstance like this, it's not uncommon for slang, colloquialisms, and outright jargon to arise. While some is shared across a lot of Minecraft, such as the famous use of Grief when compared to many other games, there are still more one-of-a-kind examples that new players might not be familiar with. This wiki page is designed as a glossary for such terms and can be added to or modified by anyone.
