Fucking Shears

The (fucking) shears item, included in the Beta 1.7 update of Minecraft in June 2011 (World I ) has become a sort of in-joke along with its associated phrase among the CErver community, and has basically turned into a server-wide meme.

History
The item and the meme were introduced to the CErver about a day after the 1.7 update (pinpointing the day to about July 1st, 2011.) Eagle went on a pseudo-serious rant on how players had been asking for tons of things from Notch; a sky-world, dragons, etc but to no avail. Notch's response, as Eagle put it, was "FUCK YOU, HAVE SOME SHEARS!" which he has vocalized to the players through the update. The joke and the phrase became widely used on the server. At one point during World I, GameSultan even made a building in Tab with pixel art of fucking shears with the sign "FUCK YOU, HAVE SOME SHEARS!"

The (Fucking) Shears Game
After said rant, the above phrase became used for various situations and spiraled into a sort of "tag" kind of game as players would then carry around fucking shears and throw them at other players, causing them to automatically pick them up, whether they wanted to or not. The motherfucker, ie the shears giver will usually type into the chat "FUCK YOU, HAVE SOME SHEARS." This often results in an angry response, as the player had then become "shear'd" or "fucked with shears" and was then required to get back at the other person, sometimes through clever means, such as placing fucking shears in chests or furnaces. Or of course, going to the top of high structures and throwing multiple fucking shears to the people below. The game was most popular in World I and to an extent World II, and has largely gone out of practice by World III.

The (Fucking) Shears Rule
In the wake of fucking shears' popularity, Eagle established a rule (that of course no one is required to follow) that whenever the fucking word "shears" is used, the word "fuck" (or any of fuck's cousin words, such as fucker, fucked, motherfucker, etc) also have to be used in the same sentence. The rule is still generally upheld by most members of the CErver. The appropriate response to somebody who says shears without saying fuck is to sternly say "Language!" at the user.

Variations
Words in the phrase were sometimes replaced with something more appropriate for the situation 
 * Fuck you, have a ban. (used by Eagle before banning player mortenmkl)
 * Fuck you, have subways (mockingly used by pro-warp supporters during the Warp Debacle)
 * Fuck you sheep/leaves, have some shears! (used when actually using shears for the proper fucking things)
 * Fuck you, have a server crash (used when the server is down, in World I this was usually due to Slowhoster)
