Hey, Valsidor here. I'm a player of TW/DS, Minecraft (much more fun with other people and with an idea of what to make), and WOW. I'm a guy, almost 21, and in college. So hello!

Hellos Val, welcome to CC! my computer lacks the power to run MC! huzzah!
-
Don't worry. My friend just got this really nice laptop that runs WOW on full, but struggles with minecraft on full. ;D

Welcome to CC. :)
Minecraft requires a fairly insane amount of power for what it's rendering, probably due to the fact that it has to read waaaaaaaay ahead since it has no idea where you're going to go. Even the server version needs a full gig of RAM, and that runs purely out of a command line, no graphics at all displayed.

Yeah...I figured my shiny new computer would be able to run a minecraft server for me and brother to play on.
One overheating computer later and my brother keeps dropping through the scenery because it's not loading properly. Good times :P
And yes, I demand island fortresses and underground farms in minecraft! Mostly because if I EVER venture topside I get killed by creepers. I swear to god every single time <_<
-
You can make farms underground?
-
Sky lights capped with glass and torches are your friends :)
Or for the more insane, just cover the top of a valley in glass and wall off each end :P Then put torches everywhere so nothing can spawn inside. Job done :)
Personally I prefer to find a small island to start on as you can immediately make that immune to most creeps just by making the walls too steep. Then bridges, underground and tunnels in the sea to secret exits on the mainland!
...minecraft is awesome

That sounds awesome. When'll our server be up again? >>
