   Summary

   Most fans of Minecraft Youtube disagree with categorizing MCYT as RPF—so much so that in early 2022 the AO3 changed the fandom's tags, removing references to RPF in most instances of fandom, relationship, and character tags. However, the line between RPF and FPF in MCYT fandom is blurry.

   This essay is an analysis of the relationship between MCYT and RPF.
