hey guys im here to see how you felt and was looking to minecraft on your first day

A friend recommended it to me when I was going through a depression. Been in love ever since.

How I started playing Minecraft :

1. Watch my friends play
2. Say "It's boring, I'll just stick to Battlefield 2"
3. Battlefield 2 lags a lot
4. Think "Why not give Minecraft a try?"
5. I did.
6. I'm here!

EDIT: Now I'm completely into Minecraft.

ok

At first when my sis talked about it. I thought it was kinda scary and a game I probably have no interest in playing it through because of the child like idea. However, my sister told me to watch some youtube videos about minecraft. So I watched Paulsojaurs guide to minecraft up to the third season, and I also watched ludwig (I can't remember his name) but he had a son named ethan and a wife which I can't remember either. They were the very first youtubers I watched that got me into playing it. Than that I didn't get into modding my server til I watched skydoesminecraft and Ipodmail was the last few youtubers I watched. So there's my start/

How about you RedstoneEmpire?

I discovered The Minecraft Project by TheSyndicateProject while surfing around on Youtube one day, and decided to check it out. I instantly became addicted to it, and nothing has changed since

Well marv I got it from my friend in school in grade 4

I've known about Minecraft as long as I remeber.
But what made me really want to start playing it was when I discovered the Achievement Hunters lets play of it <3

Nice some of you guys have got the game in different ways

I hate to say that I /heard/ of Minecraft from people on Roblox when a map server thing got hacked there was a group of people talking about playing Minecraft instead. I made an account a few days later, didn't buy the game until last summer (minecraft 1.2.5) when my friends were talking about it.

i started minecraft like any other person with minecraft would. create an account, and login with username and password.

Ok keep up the posts!!

Not really.

I heard some frineds at school talking about it.
So i went home and looked it up!
It looked pretty cool, even though it was back in 0.0.16a (Classic) with not much to it.

Thats how i started...
..have been addicted ever since... lol

Me too.

My friends were talking about it, and I decided to check it out. I played Minecraft Classic, and thought that was the real game, but since Classic barely had anything, I ignored Minecraft completely for a few months. I decided to take a look a Minecraft again, and watched paulsoaresjr's Minecraft videos. Since I realized there was much more to the game than Classic, I bought the game, and now I love it.
