Reposted from the Discord: What is mppnet
It’s a bit old but it still gives enough explanation.
TLDR
MPPClone is a site based off of the original multiplayerpiano.com, but with improvements. These days, multiplayerpiano.com doesn’t run its own server anymore, instead it uses mppclone.com’s server.
This means that you can use either multiplayerpiano.com or mppclone.com and you’ll still be with the same people, in the same rooms, and have similar features.Brief history of MPP
multiplayerpiano.com was created in 2012 by Brandon Lockaby. Brandon maintained and updated the site throughout the next 8 years. People discovered that they could connect to the site with bots using programs such as Node.js. People made use of this to create “bridges” which are bots that let people in Discord to see messages in multiplayerpiano.com, and vice versa.
In the last few years, some users started to abuse bots. There wasn’t much stopping someone from connecting 200 or more bots to the site and spamming it, causing the server to lag and eventually crash. Brandon no longer wanted to host and maintain the site. On October 23, 2020 he sold the site to a person who I will refer to as “Newowner.”
Also during this time, I discovered multiplayerpiano.com. After making some fun bots, I created my own clone of the site on mppclone.com. The original version of MPPClone was mostly made as a project to see whether I could code it. Over time I continued to develop it and added more features.
On the main site, not much happened until January of 2021. The site went down for around 3 days, users were left confused on why it went down or whether it would come back. Newowner brought the site back, but this time it was hosted on a different machine.
Due to issues with the community, Newowner decided they did not want to host it anymore. Newowner heard of my clone, mppclone.com, and changed multiplayerpiano.com so that it took everyone to mppclone.com.
Bot attacks were still a problem on multiplayerpiano.com, so I tried to get rid of them on my server. I added protection and anti-bot systems to my server, and rewrote it so it would be able to handle all of the new users. After making some fixes and changes, I mostly left the community for a couple months, but maintained it so that people could still use the site.
In late December of 2021, I returned. I created this Discord server, and integrated mppclone.com within it. I added moderation features to mppclone.com, which made it possible to fix some of the issues and toxicity in the community. -
RE: "lets all be failed but not tell server 1 256 kbps!!"posted in Images/Videos
Interesting. I would still go for the 320kbps, personally it’s my ideal bitrate. :D

RE: Whats the supported files for videos?posted in Community
Siloxa (Hail's version) MP3 and WAV are audio files, not videos. If you wanted to post something, I’d say a cloud link or something as videos can be considerably large.
