I tried to get Dropshock to update the title. Could someone help me explain better?

Dropshock Poorpockets McNewhols: I am not obligated in and loving way to stare and people's twitter feeds to update the title to the very newest happening event. If people want constant news, I am not their personal newspaper. I will update the title when I deem neccesary, such as an important update or something that I think people should know. I will not, however, update the title for every single snapshot release, and every single new thing added. As far as I know, dragons and the 1.0 release were the most recent important event unless you, or someone else can alert me of something better.
Dropshock Poorpockets McNewhols: In the last 8 pages, I have not seen one single person say anything about the title.
Dropshock Poorpockets McNewhols: You yourself do not need to be that person who does say something about the title.
Dropshock Poorpockets McNewhols: Do not speak for everyone else by saying "people don't like the title" when I can't seem to find anyone else who does.
Dropshock Poorpockets McNewhols: who doesn't like it*


I have just updated the title and will continue to do so on request. However, I will not change the title to something even more useless and less informative than what it is now. MegaScience talked to me on steam and requested me to change the title. He stated "Dragons and version 1.0 are old and boring." Which is, of course, understandable. He then asked me to change it to either "Jeb is beautiful" because MegaScience posted a picture of jeb or something, or change it to "Jeb is boss".
He said it should be changed to those because Jeb is now the lead dev. Both of those titles don't make sense and are not informative at all if you're attempting to tell people that Jeb is the lead dev. I have picked a better title in place of these idiotic suggestions, and will continue to update the title when I deem fit.
No, I will not update the title to include your name in it. No, I will not update the title because Jeb fixed a minor bug. I will update the title to show an important event or something awesome that was added to the game. If you would like me to change the title, politely ask me over the forums or over Steam, stating what you want it to be changed to and why. If it is not idiotic I will change it if I find it is important to the Mincraft community.

Lastly, I want to say thank you to everyone here for actually making this a Minecraft megathread. I had no idea it would be so big when I first made it. I love how big it has gotten and the fact I introduced Minecraft to so many people, showing them a game they love. I am happy to update the thread if you at least have a reasonable request.

Edit: I would also like to say I'm not trying to say I hate MegaScience or think he's some sort of idiot. I am just slightly angered at him at the moment. Don't think I'm attempting to start some sort of fight with him, I would just like to set things straight in a straight forward and precise message.

Humph! Someone somehow snatched my account and completely deleted the email address associated with it.
I called Blizzard, switched the email, and got my account back.
Oddly enough... Nothing was missing. He re-binded controls and last logged out in a Battlefield, leaving me with some extra honor points. I think he was convinced the account was his and he was going to play on it legit. But it did have a 3 month (or day?) suspension on it which was lifted.

This woke me up a bit. I got a Blizzard authenticator on my phone, and set up a two-step authorization to log into most of my email accounts. I would highly suggest ALL of you do these things in order to keep your accounts safe.

Yes.

This doesn't mean much though. I could do a whois lookup on any site, find out the company they registered with, then also register a domain with them.
I see. Well, anyways, black-aperture.com's name servers aren't hosted on valve's servers so it looks like it's probably fake too. Or Valve is trying to pull some weird stuff like they usually do.

They weren't registered with the same address. This particular web hosting and domain name registration company offers you anonymity by passing mail to you through them, so your private address doesn't show in in the registrar records. In other words, you send a letter to Network Solutions addressed to the corporation or individual you want to contact and they will send the message onto them.

It costs $10 a month and you can read about their service here: https://www.networksolutions.com/domain-name-registration/private.jsp

I believe most companies do this.
Oh wow, I didn't know about that. But if the addresses are the same doesn't that mean they used the same private registration company?

I knew The new Half life would be with Aperture.
But now Shell is free to go, What will happen?

Half-life3.com is registered and owned by Valve Softworks.
http://www.whois.net/whois/half-life3.com

HOWEVER!

black-aperture.com was registered privately with no information given with it.
http://whois.domaintools.com/black-aperture.com
But! It was registered with the same address as the whois info on half-life3.com

Then, there's atramental-plateau.com.
http://whois.domaintools.com/atramental-plateau.com
This was registered and is hosted by a dreamhost user. It is more than likely fake.

Awesome visuals and a sweet drop. Holy christ.

And The Russain showed me Pendulum, which I think sparked my interest in dubstep and DnB and all electronic music. :D
Hats off to you, The Russain. Now let's all listen to this awesome drop.

I'm not ashamed to admit that I'm a Christian, but you don't need to be in the pew every Sunday to know there's something wrong in this country when gays can serve openly in the military but our kids can't openly celebrate Christmas or pray in school.

What the hell is an Unusual?
They're like... well, they're what they're called. Unusuals. In TF2 you randomly get items, and some are rarer than others. Those are unusuals. And some people love getting unusuals. So they buy them, I guess.

Do you honestly know who the OP is without looking.
 :cookieMonster:
Is that directed towards me or MegaScience? I thought it was widely known I'm the one who made this topic.
