    Greetings from the dark side!

    First of all, I would like to introduce to you the organization called LegendsOfMCPE.
    LegendsOfMCPE is the name of an organization created by experienced developers of the old PocketMine-MP community, focused in the creation of third-party extensions (aka plugins) for improved experience of PocketMine-based Minecraft: Pocket Edition (MCPE) servers.

    Since last year, we noticed that the general development of the PocketMine-MP started to decrease, followed by the hiring of the creator and leader of the project (@shoghicp) by the Mojang AB company. These events guided the appearance of new forks (aka modded or custom software) of the project, creating diverse paths to follow when using PocketMine-related software, depending on individual needs and preferences.

    Not longer after that, the official development of the PocketMine-API stopped. Authorized developers of the PocketMine team were no longer updating feature-related (API) parts of the project, limiting to just updating core functions (Join, Motion, Interaction, etc) of the software to support newer versions of MCPE.

    The development of the projects handled by the LegendsOfMCPE developers recursively stopped, this due to lack of official PocketMine-API updates to provide new software features and improved server performance, making it harder to implement new features in their plugins and also keep the high-quality level of performance that each project aimed to have.

    At the moment I'm writing this post, there are no official members of the LegendsOfMCPE organization involved in active development of old projects, instead, some community members appeared and requested the required permissions needed in order to contribute with the development of updates for those outdated plugins. Nevertheless, these community members are not official LegendsOfMCPE members at the moment, and they have no rights to take word in name of the organization itself.

    I hope this post will dismiss some controversy that appeared in recent days due to some misunderstandings in the community.

    Hoping to you later!

    P.S: Some updates may appear down in this post, they will be sectioned inside Spoiler blocks with the correspondent date and update number.
