    posted a message on Why do people smoke?
    seems like tons of people have misconceptions about smoking, though the below only apply to people who smoke occasionally, i.e. once a week. NOT daily.

    posted a message on Will Mojang ever stop updating Minecraft?
    it will stop. someday at least.

    look at mario.
    look at pacman.
    look at sonic.
    look at tetris.

    well... no updates to the original, but spinoffs have been made.
    but still, updates will stop.

    posted a message on Anyone not impressed with 1.9 so far?
    well... i wouldn't really say i'm unhappy with the state of minecraft now, but the code freeze came too early.

    the end - wip
    dragons - wip
    npc villages - wip
    strongholds - wip (no bosses yet?)
    nether - unpolished (relatively small matter)

    4 things still wip. how does notch/jeb expect to be able to release the game by minecon? even if they manage to do so, the game is still incomplete, unfit for a full release. it should stay in beta, even if they have to push the release date back after minecon.

    i think it's just right (as a programmer myself) to get everything in place, good and proper, with no bugs, then release it.

    right now minecraft is like a half baked pie, still piping hot, but the party is starting soon, so this kid hurriedly takes the half baked pie out to serve to others. it's just not right imo.

    posted a message on I literally jumped ..
    similar experience, though nonetheless jump-worthy.
    was spelunking and clearing out an iron vein.

    personally, i like to stand far away when mining such that if i dig through any blocks, i can react to pull a sword out and block if any mobs are behind the said block i just mined.

    but this time... endermen. 2 of them. behind that iron ore i was mining. block dropped, i stared right into the face of the enderman. boomz. 10 seconds. dead me.

    posted a message on We want 1.9 NOW!
    npc villages are nowhere near completion, the end has no way out, enderdragons are not implemented, strongholds have no bosses.

    how do you expect a 1.9 release now?
    no-effing-way.

    posted a message on Glass Blocks
    Quote from LowCountry86

    Im not really following you


    he's complaining about glass blocks leaking water/lava when built under them, suggesting a very unprofessional look about them.

    the only solution (currently) is to place 2 blocks of whatever material is under the water to stop it from leaking.
