Originally launched in September of 2022, The Trading Post was called Valley of Peace in conjunction with Kevin’s Twitch channel of “Master Shifu.” Following the 1 year server anniversary, the server took a new direction and got a makeover to coincide with Kevin’s new online persona of “The Wandering Trader,” to touch upon his love for travel. Beginning on the 24th of May 2024, the Minecraft server launched with the new adopted name of “The Trading Post.” While it remains predominantly a close community from the remains of Kevin’s streaming, it has been since opened to the public while still requiring some community engagement to ensure it is a best fit.
