Wow. I'm truly amazed at your story. I realize this was made a while back, but reading the entire thing made me want to create an account on here just to leave a reply. I've always been fascinated by how Minecraft has evolved (other than the current updates, what has minecraft become?), and I remember the first time I joined. I had created an account on Minecraft.net (yet I didn't buy Minecraft yet, I didn't have the money, unless I had, I can't remember) and I saw the free classic version available on the website. I remember playing that all the time, going on the Capture The Flag servers just to mess around.
I first officially joined Minecraft during the final few months of 1.5.2, before 1.6 was first released. I had downloaded it, but for some odd reason, it wasn't allowing me to update to 1.6, and only allowed me to play offline. I knew I didn't have the demo, so I was extremely confused.
By the time I had finally fixed that issue, 1.6.4 was rolling out, and I was just excited to see every new feature that had first been introduced. I remember being so amazed, yet confused, on what to do and how to play. I was such a noob, if you must. My knowledge of Crafting Recipes and certain blocks was little, for I had only ever played Classic and the Demo version. But hey, I got used to it.
So after a while, I continued playing. I had made a YouTube channel, and I was just in awe of all the possiblilities there were when it came to servers and mini-games. I wasn't very good at building, or even really "pvping" much, because of my horrible framerate, but other than my framerate finally increasing, and my battling skills getting better, I'm still a horrible builder.
By 1.7, my cousin had introduced me to Factions, which I disliked. A lot. I wasn't good at all, and I became confused on the shops and kits there were, and why people spent so much money just to be better. After a while, I did some server searching myself, and found a server that I still play on to this day.
It's a very small server, and not many people come online anymore, but it's still 1.8.
Around 1.8, I had started getting way better at the game, and I even returned to the website to see if Classic was still a thing. (By the time I was doing this, it was like 1.8.7 or so) and I was sad to see that they had removed it. I searched and searched, for a way to play it once more.
This is when I found a program called ClassiCube, which allowed players to run the original Classic version of Minecraft, and play with all the players who still used it.
To this day, I'm pretty ashamed of where Minecraft is heading. I've enjoyed the game so much, and it makes me sad to see the weird features they're introducing nowadays. But I will always be a true Minecraft Player, for it is the best agme I have ever played.
