Hello everyone!
I'd like to start out by saying it's been a real joy to see how the sever atmosphere is here. You hear alot of negativity about online servers but after doing my research I think I hit a homerun my first at bat.
So I signed up my son Maddox because its really all he ever talks about. He's 7yrs old. In fact, after some time I realised if I didnt take a look inside this whole Minecraft thing, long talks in the truck on the way to and from his mothers house would continue to sound like Charlie Brown's teacher. I have to admit that it all looked pretty silly to me but the more I played and learn the more I enjoy it. The online experience makes it nice too. I spent some time setting things up for him and having a look around to make sure there wasn't a bunch of wierdo's in here and ended up getting hooked on it. Which is strange because Im not what you'd call a "gamer." Im not sure if I should start a screen name for myself or what. It seems like the right thing to do but I cant find anything in the rules other than "dont use multiple screen names."
Anyway Im Fran, 36, mostly an outdoorsman. You name it we do it here in upstate NY. Hunt, flyfish, backpacking, rock climbing, Mt biking. Lots and lots of thing that end in "ing." Im a full time Firefighter of 16yrs. And now im the coolest dad in the world because I can carry on a legitimate conversion about the intricacies of Minecraft to my little monster and show off the new stuff I built.
Thank you very much for the help!
