Bearers of the Curse

undefined

Bearers of the Curse (also abbreviated as BotC) are members of the Wilbur Soot offline chat who have been perceived by Wilbur on an individual level. Due to the general consensus that offliners want to vibe without being seen by their CC, this recognition is often seen as a blight, hence the nickname of The Curse.

History
During TommyInnit's Mod Video, Minecraft's Body Shuffle Is Stupidly Funny, Wilbur forgot to disable his offline chat on his stream overlay. This resulted in some of the offliner conversation to be "caught in 4k" in the video itself, and some of the offliners ended up exposed to the greater audience of TommyInnit viewers as regular chatters in the offline chat.

This was brought up the next day in offline chat, and the regulars joked about needing a nickname for having been perceived. The name "Bearers of the Curse" was coined by Iightgeneral, and promptly stuck. Most regulars dread the day they become Bearers, and share the same desire to remain hidden (even if their exposure is almost inevitable, should they decide to keep chatting in offline).

Trivia

 * The regulars of the twitch chat are a little like Wilbur, in that they do not want to be thought of by the other party. Like streamer, like fanbase.
 * The Bearers have arranged Operation: Blind Justice in response to their blight.
