Fortunately, things like this land people in jail now.SEVENTH GRADE!? SEVENTH GRADE!? There was a person, who devoted his time with you, for two entire years, just to do this!? Their ambition in life was to keep you a loner with low self-esteem and get you to KILL YOURSELF!? Why would ANYONE do this for two entire years!?
1.8 was mostly devoted to breaking the code even more.Please reference my above text about how 1.8 was mostly devoted to fixing the horrid code.
It doesn't involve adding useless, overcomplicated and limited solutions to important parts of the game engine.Well if the currently used code is broken, terribly designed, and generally an unintelligible mess... fixing that is going to involve breaking it. Don't most code overhauls break stuff?
No, lol.Like? From what I heard, 1.8 runs quite a bit better on nearly everyone's machines (with the usual exceptions of every patch breaking MC 100% for an everchanging tiny percentage of people). Also what else would you expect from Mojang/Microsoft? Clean, Logical, Efficient Code?
No, 1.8, despite claims, is far less efficiently written than 1.7. To give you a sense of what I mean, they decided to replace all x,y,z integer arguments with a BlockPos object that must be created fresh for every coordinate, saving a grand total of nanoseconds, costing a lot more on the GC.Like?

This may be the only time when I say this...Let me tell you a bit of a story. For most of my life, the number of friends I had could have been counted on the fingers of a fish (read: zero).
Then, one day (around grade 7, if I remember correctly), a miracle! Someone who was nice to me!
Fast-forward two years and I find out that they were not a friend at all, they were working to keep me isolated and friendless and destroy my self-image, and their ultimate goal - proudly confessed to me - was to get me to kill myself.
When experiences like that are not a crazy outlier, but fairly typical of the sorts of relationships people have to you (though fortunately there were only three with that end goal), you very quickly develop issues trusting others you do not know extensively well.
Eh, I was just hoping to play WF with someone new (only one person that I know actively plays it).Heh, it's more "other things take higher priority" than "can't farm the parts". I only play warframe every week or so, and I live with a guy who plays it... a lot.

People say that a lot of the MC code's mess comes from Notch being self-taught and learning as he programmed it, but judging from the changes since then, the same could be said for the rest of the MC team.
Not to mention they ignore EVERYTHING the modding community does.Hell, minus one Visual BASIC 6 class I had during my freshman year in high school, I'm also entirely self-taught, and even I wouldn't have made half the dumbass mistakes Notch made. A lot of those mistakes (like sending the entire texture library to the GPU every tick) aren't even amateur mistakes, they reek of pure, simple laziness. It really tells you something about just how badly Minecraft was designed when vanilla 1.7, no mods, not even Forge, ran worse on my old laptop than Guild Wars 2, a game which is many times more graphically intense and generally far faster in pace. This is 1.7, mind you, this is supposed to be the unofficial "getting our shit together" update.
My problem isn't that Mojang adds crap I don't like; honestly, I like ambiance in the world and the little critters help flesh it out and make it more interesting. My problem is that Mojang just...isn't all that good at what it does. They're supposed to be professionals, now, and yet they keep making neophyte-level mistakes.
My crash course consisted of how to hide in the castle in the Xbox 360 demo. It also featured tutorials on messing up basic redstone, smashing through paintings and doors, and punching stone bricks with a fist.IIRC, My friend just gave me a basic crash course and told me about the wiki and I was set.
I don't even. I JUST DON'T EVEN.
I'll stuff you in a sporange. (actual thing, means a sac where spores are grown, the only thing that rhymes with orange)I wonder if I should orange.
A zero? Isn't that a bit harsh?Still better than grading reports written in textspeak and lolcats, which promptly earned a zero from me.
1987! Only the prophecy foretold!!11!Holy cow. An excerpt of the minimum that I do/expect to see in an academic setting is here:The incident started on September 13, 1987 when the man responsible for guarding the radioactive source used a sick day to attend a showing of “Herbie goes Bananas”, leaving the building unguarded . . .
You have been banished.I'm from central Illinois - I pronounce it "suhtistics", along with "warsh" and "libary".
It wouldn't be hard to if you're never allowed to say it. .;,;.. . . yet I frequently forget Voldemort's name . . .
Oh, I'd love to start doing that. "I have no opinion on this because I am a circle with an arrow sticking out."BTW Rav, why don't you do that whole "Pretend you're your avatar when it comes up" thing anymore?
OH GOD NO.Oh god...
That one's so overused it's not even a joke anymore.You could say that they are...punny.....
Literately speechless?I am literately speechless. What a moron.
1.8 is epic. The commands are awesome, the new features are awesome, so on and so forth.
Happened a while back on a Skype group I'm in.
No. Clue.
Hey, I remember this quote from somewhere...Someone admits they are wrong and apologizes on the internet? Next thing you know Xycraft will be out.
This ALSO gives me a weird sense of satisfaction.Definitely ^^
Not mine, they hate the game because of how often I play it.Is that not every parents', who are strapped for cash, dream? Buy 1 game that the child will play for months if not years?
No, no it wasn't. It had to add some new code for the block model packs, but other than that no...1.8 was mostly devoted to breaking the code even more.
But very much deserved.A zero? Isn't that a bit harsh?
Purrrrrrrrrr.This may be the only time when I say this...
LET ME HUG YOU!
People are asshats, but that is just downright ridiculous! I was in a similar situation, but people realized I didn't like being around people and got really self-conscious around other people and I would share anything I had/do anything they wanted if it meant they'd leave me alone, so everyone was suddenly my friend wanting to sit next to me (I enjoyed the front table, right in front of the teacher, for most of my time at school, as it was the only place no one else would sit) and after a while they realized their "friend tactic" didn't work, so it turned into bullying, some people bringing up things they had seen me writing/posting on tumblr/etc. which meant that for the last 2 years of school I had a lot of homophobic/transphobic remarks coming my way, as well as a lot of degrading remarks about my eating habits, etc. However, I don't think any of them ever actually wanted me to kill myself!
That is a new low, even for idiots.
*reika hugging intensifies*
The wild Reika rarely makes noise, the most wondrous of all its noises can be heard but once in a lifetime.Dragons purr?
