To answer a long post with another:

What is the point of this post? Of course everything has an end, it the nature of living things to cease to live. Many hours have been devoted to either trying to stop death or trying to believe in what's after death, but nothing yet has come.

But we still live. We still do what we enjoy, be that music, math, or Minecraft. Mevans does this for us to enjoy, not to stop him from dying.

Your post contains facts, yes. But why tell us of the inevitable? What is the point of telling us the mod will die? Is there a point to telling a bowler "Someday you might get a gutter ball", when he knows that not every day is a good day? Is there a point to informing a racer that he will someday not be able to get behind the wheel and drive, when everyday he is aware that it could be today?

Is the point to discourage us from loving this mod? Is it to attempt to persuade us to give up on something that we are united by?

Or is the point to persuade us towards a nihilistic worldview? Are we to give up on the good things now and focus on the bad things to come? Because that's not a good way to look at the world. That's the way to get depressed about everything. That's the way to not have love, or not be happy. And that's not the way we choose to live.
