Generation 1: 2011-2012
The very first generation to play on SimPvP, when the server was young, and when Minecraft itself was still a new game. This generation experienced the most chaotic era of SimPvP history, including the first and only map reset, the world border being implemented, and the highest frequency of griefing and PvP. As a result, these players tend to have thick skin and aren't surprised or upset easily. Most members of this generation occupy a respected place in the server culture, having established some of the most historic bases, and serving as admins at a much higher rate than any other generation.
In general, this generation is disrespectful to newer players, holding an arrogant attitude and often being quite rude on the old SimPvP forum, which existed since before the server had its own Discord or subreddit, though there are major exceptions to this rule such as Snowfrog43, who has sheltered and fed more noobs than anyone else.

Generation 2: 2013-2014
This generation was the first wave of new players to come to SimPvP after it was first established, and did not always get along well with the old players from generation I, though many members eventually earned the respect of the server by founding or joining major bases such as Ascaris, Golden Sun, or Morl0ck's Castle, among many others. Generation II, in general, has a more welcoming attitude towards noobs, because they remember when they were regarded as noobs themselves.
