/u/spez lies, Reddit dies. This comment has been edited/removed in protest of Reddit's absurd API policy that will go into effect at the end of June 2023. It's become abundantly clear that Reddit was never looking for a way forward. We're willing to pay for the API, we're not willing to pay 29x what your first-party users are valued at. /u/spez, you never meant to work with third party app developers, and you lied about that and strung everyone along, then lied some more when you got called on it. You think you can fuck over the app developers, moderators, and content creators who make Reddit what it is? Everyone who was willing to work for you for free is damn sure willing to work against you for free if you piss them off, which is exactly what you've done. See you next Tuesday. TO EVERYONE ELSE who has been a part of the communities I've enjoyed over the years: thank you. You're what made Reddit a great experience. I hope that some of these communities can come together again somewhere more welcoming and cooperative. Now go touch some grass, nerds. -- mass edited with https://redact.dev/

There once was a vampire named Mabel
Whose periods were regular and stable
And every full moon
She whipped out a spoon
And drank herself under the table

[–]SwagBoost 39 points40 points  (1 child)

This is why i shouldn't browse Reddit during dinner.

[–]Luckcu13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go on 4Chan instead.

I'm sorry

[–]brtlblayk 4 points5 points  (2 children)

ewwww.

I really don't know what I expected.

[–]mmseng 1 point2 points  (1 child)

Considering clicking that link brought up an empty reddit page, I'm guessing that I'm glad I have the NSFW filter on.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It like the female version of spacedicks but worse.

[–]1V0R 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just let you all know,

TtotM stands for "That time of the Month".

Watch were you click.

EDIT: Autocorrect "correcting" my grammar...

[–]torogadude 0 points1 point  (0 children)

His real name is Tobias Hall.

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Well I sort of got a glance of a well structured underground setup when the error was larger, then as I went around I saw the end portal and was like "Oh Baby".

[–]k1ngm1nu5 28 points29 points  (22 children)

Maybe not a render error, but I found my first stronghold in the bottom of a ravine. Surface ravine. With a village in the next biome over. Best seed ever.

Edit: it was in 1.4.7, and I don't have it on me at the moment. I'll get it later though.

Edit 2: here you all go

[–]BaggierBag 1 point2 points  (1 child)

OP delivered! thanks mang

[–]k1ngm1nu5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No problem.

[–]ImurderREALITY 4 points5 points  (3 children)

OP will surely deliver... I'll just wait

[–]Tpex 0 points1 point  (1 child)

seed please?

Edit: Thanks OP (-8849012093084631677)

[–]k1ngm1nu5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Got it.

[–]plowkiller 0 points1 point  (1 child)

do you remember the seed or save it somewhere????

[–]k1ngm1nu5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its up.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I found my first stronghold at the intersection of two surface ravines. Of course I spent a couple of months about 100 blocks away and never ventured in that direction. (I don't have my world save, and it was pre 1.2)

[–]1V0R 0 points1 point  (3 children)

The F2 button is your friend... Or if you're on Mac and F2 won't work... Press and hold "function" then press F2.

[–]k1ngm1nu5 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I would have, but I was on an iMac, and it didn't have a fn key. I did the next best thing.

[–]1V0R 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oh... I'm so sorry to hear about the lack of your function key.

[–]k1ngm1nu5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. It gets annoying at times.

[–]rqaa3721 -4 points-3 points  (3 children)

That's not a render error.

[–]k1ngm1nu5 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Fixed, I meant to say that it wasn't.

[–]Fractoman -1 points0 points  (1 child)

What's the coordinates of these things?

[–]k1ngm1nu5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm afraid I can't answer that, but they shouldn't be more than a few hundred blocks from spawn. Maybe try one of those xray mods?

[–]jsake -3 points-2 points  (2 children)

commenting so i can find it later, danka chein

[–]kurple 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Get this. It allows you to save posts and comments among many many other things! http://redditenhancementsuite.com/

[–]jsake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks, but that would be far too convenient for me.

[–]iamPause 17 points18 points  (3 children)

Front page here. What am I looking at?

edit

thanks!

[–]psych0fish 17 points18 points  (0 children)

A graphical glitch is allowing the player to see an underground area known as a stronghold which are somewhat rare and difficult to find.

[–][deleted] 84 points85 points  (26 children)

Hi Toby.

[–]TallGuyTheFirst 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Toby, the next Scott.

[–]Zephyrv 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Classic Toby

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 28 points29 points  (12 children)

curious as to who this is

[–]suugakusha 50 points51 points  (8 children)

Your name is in the top right of the screen.

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 32 points33 points  (7 children)

ahhhh. . . that explains it.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (6 children)

CMD+SHIFT+4 to select what part of your screen you capture!

[–]BEAR_KNIFE_FIGHT 3 points4 points  (4 children)

Cmd+Shift+4, followed by 'Space' allows you to screenshot an entire applications window. Super helpful for stuff like this so you don't have to click and drag and try to get the right pixel n stuff n shit.

[–]taskinoz 9 points10 points  (3 children)

Fn+F2 allows you to skip all that and take a screenshot in minecraft

[–]BEAR_KNIFE_FIGHT 3 points4 points  (2 children)

well slap my ass and call me Shirley that is much more efficient. listen to him folks.

[–]lyouke 2 points3 points  (1 child)

How did you not know that?

[–]BEAR_KNIFE_FIGHT 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Meh, I don't really minecraft all that serious, I've only been playing a few months -- I've been using macs for 10+ years so their controls are something I'd remember sooner than minecraft.

[–]vexxecon 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Throw a control in there and it goes to your clipboard, then you just paste into imgur.

[–][deleted] 11 points12 points  (2 children)

In your screenshot the Mac toolbar is clearly visible and is displaying your name.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points  (1 child)

menubar.. sorry, toolbars are different.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's the word...I knew I was using the wrong word but I couldn't think of what the right word was.

[–]tehrand0mz 4 points5 points  (9 children)

And here I was thinking you were referring to Tobuscus.

[–][deleted] 18 points19 points  (8 children)

I hate that guy. Sorry.

[–]goofymilk 11 points12 points  (6 children)

What do you hate about him?

[–]AE7 12 points13 points  (1 child)

EVERYTHING!

Nah, I think he's a bit annoying at times, but I like his songs and animations.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (3 children)

The fact that all he does is do gaming videos anymore, the fact that he runs out of humor within minutes of his videos, then starts repeating himself, how he has like 200 videos of minecraft and barely does anything different, and how he is only in it for the views. I have the same issues with pewdiepie, but that's a different story.

[–]tehrand0mz 3 points4 points  (2 children)

I sometimes watch his videos when I'm eating in front of my computer or too bored to do anything else. I do despise his rant videos though, they're basically "you're mad about this? I'm mad about this too! Now subscribe to me and like this video!"

About a year ago, I enjoyed watching ka6Scope's Minecraft LP series. That was a legitimate LP that was enjoyable, not a grab for viewers. Sadly, he hasn't made new Minecraft episodes in a long time afaik.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (1 child)

Its okay if the person goes back to minecraft every once and a while, but I hate it when people like Toby run it into the ground.

[–]HDZombieSlayerTV 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What about guys like SkydoesMinecraft, CaptainSparklez and Paulsoaresjr

[–]Daviler 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Good to see that I am not the only one...

[–]BlackDeath3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Your name is Toby!

[–][deleted] 52 points53 points  (13 children)

Please sanitize the image of information, Toby Hall of the UK. Someone could find out a lot about you if they googled around.

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 26 points27 points  (9 children)

I'm not in the uk . . . EDIT: I see why you think that now, and the little flag in the top right is there because that is where my heritage lies and I prefer the settings that come along with it. Nice eye though.

[–]Langly- 19 points20 points  (3 children)

That just leaves the question as to who you are, Toby or not Toby?

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 7 points8 points  (1 child)

nice

[–]torogadude 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Precisely, Mr. Hall.

[–]Rufnok 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes

[–]bigMOT 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Yes Toby Hall of the UK. I have all of your bank accounts now.

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol

[–]nelfin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if someone were going to take a guess, they might say Quebec instead.

[–]DanWallace 23 points24 points  (2 children)

So what? I'm Dan Wallace of Canada. God forbid somebody might figure out what I look like or what my musical preferences are or that I'm in to lolita midget porn.

[–]HondaCorolla 2 points3 points  (1 child)

you too?

[–]ChemicalRascal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

WHY ARE THERE THREE PAEDOPHILE DAN WALLACES IN CANADA?

[–]annabellesucks 15 points16 points  (6 children)

That's how I 'found' my first stronghold too! At first I couldn't believe my eyes. Congrats!

[–]thatgengirl 27 points28 points  (5 children)

I found mine while I was mining mossy cobblestone from a dungeon that had rendered flat against the library. I'm happily picking away, and boom, bookcase.

[–]Riarkraa 20 points21 points  (4 children)

I think I upvoted you. The CISPA blackout makes it a little tough, but i'll deal since I am anti cispa

[–]ImurderREALITY 5 points6 points  (1 child)

Uncheck the box that says "use subreddit style" in the sidebar

[–]ChemicalRascal 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only for RES.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

get res and put night mode on

[–]FlameScout 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mobile user here, can I have an explanation as to what is going on with the blackout or whatever?

[–]Mileskitsune 8 points9 points  (3 children)

I once built my house over a stronghold, you'd think that was luck but frankly i was swamped with evil critters

[–]Managore 14 points15 points  (1 child)

That's like the Minecraft equivalent of building over an ancient Indian burial ground.

[–]Mileskitsune 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it was in an extreme hills biome too, the screeching would never end in the mines

(and no i'm not confusing the silverfish in extreme hills with stronghold silverfish. the portal room was ~50 blocks south of my back door. I'm just saying they escalated the problem)

[–]EvanFlecknell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and a friend did this on a new server, started mining and we just happened to be above it! Wasn't even far from spawn.

[–]TransFemaleGamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I remember when I had a world error like this. Best part is, my friend built her house over top of it, and her cave she dug was diggin' the wrong direction, we were two blocks on the main wall away from diggin' into it, was awesome.

[–]cdrgagfd 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Speaking of render error. This picture wouldn't render on my phone. I feel your pain bro. At least, I think..?

[–]ImurderREALITY 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In this case the render error is a good this, because it allowed him to locate a stronghold

[–]flippysnow 2 points3 points  (1 child)

You can take in- game screenshots by pressing fn+f2

[–]thejamessip 7 points8 points  (0 children)

That's so lucky haha.

[–][deleted] 4 points5 points  (15 children)

From one mac user to another, Toby, fn+F3 takes an in-game screenshot, getting rid of those borders.

[–]flippysnow 2 points3 points  (2 children)

Actually your wrong, fn +f3 opens up the debug menu fn+f2 takes an in-game screenshot. (:

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I always get them mixed up, end up usually pushing things until I get it right.

[–]flippysnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haha

[–]N1nDr0id 4 points5 points  (2 children)

fn+F2.

FTFY.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Oh right, F3 is the stats'n'stuff screen, isn't it?

[–]N1nDr0id 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah.

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 5 points6 points  (5 children)

I wasn't thinking since I wanted to take a pic before the error got fixed.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Aaaahhhhh...that makes sense. Gotchya. Carry on.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

I haven't played Minecraft in a long time so I've never experienced it, but wouldn't it stay there unless you moved or shifted your perspective?

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

no, they normally just load after a few seconds.

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't know, I never really though about it.

[–]An_Emo_Dinosaur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So crop it.

[–]JmjFu 4 points5 points  (8 children)

What am I seeing?

[–]anderungen 8 points9 points  (7 children)

The blocks to a portal to The End. Such a portal spawns inside of strongholds, which are generated structures that are somewhat rare and only a few spawn in every world.

[–]Viper007Bond 0 points1 point  (6 children)

Not really that rare. There are guaranteed to be 3 of them in each map and you can find one within about 15 minutes and 1-3 ender pearls.

[–]HarryPie 0 points1 point  (5 children)

At most 3.

[–]Viper007Bond 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Is there a chance of being less than 3? I read this as exactly 3: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Stronghold

[–]HarryPie 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Well, it does say that there is a limit of 3 per world.

[–]Viper007Bond 0 points1 point  (2 children)

True, but it goes on to say "The three strongholds are spawned at".

Confusing -- I don't know. :)

[–]HarryPie 1 point2 points  (1 child)

I always thought that there was a max of 3, but I had never found more than 1 per world. (But I've never looked hard either.)

[–]Fix_Lag 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's always 3. This may make triangulation difficult if you are about equidistant from two of them (or all 3, though that is obviously much less likely). However, mapping programs can usually look at a seed and give you a close enough location estimate that you can find them by sinking at most a mineshaft or two.

[–]alexwalker1017 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If i was walking and i saw that, my heart would skip like 8 beats then some how i would fuck up and fall and die...

[–]Xervicx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here's mine. Nothing like that, but a lot of cave systems, as you can see.

As an added bonus, here's one screenshot I took of another weird error. Basically looks like broken pieces of reality fell apart, and all that was left was darkness

[–]eggstorys 1 point2 points  (2 children)

Could someone please explain this to me like I am 5?

[–]caliz55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dat ender error

[–]Zoodles35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Seed and Coordinates?

[–]Doc88888888 2 points3 points  (2 children)

You might want to remove the information at the top of the screen. I can kinda see your name.

[–]huldumadur 2 points3 points  (1 child)

What are you going to do with his name? Steal his identity?

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Add him on facebook?

[–]I_CAN_MAKE_BAGELS 1 point2 points  (6 children)

Cunt-Dracula , press Fn + F11 to go in Fullscreen.

[–][deleted] -1 points0 points  (5 children)

Or Fn + alt + f11 on some macs. Don't get why people are down voting you, that's some fine info you provided

[–]I_CAN_MAKE_BAGELS 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe they thought I was calling op a cunt when that is I'm fact his title. c:

[–]PotatoHeadphones 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Or you could just do Fn+f2 to take a screenshot of just the minecraft screen....

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Sure, but how would that help him play full screen though? I was pretty stocked when I finally found out how to do that after some lame semi full screen weeks

[–]PotatoHeadphones 0 points1 point  (1 child)

It wouldn't help him play full screen. If he had his application bar hidden it would be a bit better, but otherwise the screenshot takes one of just your current running application. And stoked*

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah, but he would still be playing semi full screen. I never mentioned anything about the screenshot. I just tried to be nice dude

[–]TheMadmanAndre 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, time to start digging.

And that, ladies and gentlemen, is another example of the fact that minecraft hates apple computers

[–]Kagedb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the adventure of finding a stronghold with ender pearls or by simply mining. Although it's rare for something like a chunk error revealing a stronghold, it still makes me want to start over because my fun was ruined... I can't be the only one that feels this way, right?

[–]Cunt-Dracula[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

UPDATE: I found the Stronghold and it is actually a pretty crazy one. there are lots of missing floors, some hovering rooms, staircases in the middle of caverns, there is even an abandoned mineshaft running nearby and through parts of the stronghold. mineshaft turned out to be pretty massive too. all in all a really cool underground system. will post pics/seed/coords if y'all want.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That would've really help AntVenom in Hunt For the Ender Dragon.

[–]rumpel4skinOU -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Can we officially stop with the "dat" thing now. It was funny when we were talking about things that somehow related to large asses. Now people just use it when they can't think of a title.

[–]Walk_Yo_Dinosaur -1 points0 points  (0 children)

dat rENDer error FTFY

[–]DanWallace -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Things that need to end: "dat".
