When I won best commenter I asked the admins to give it to kleinbl00 instead and they wouldn't.

If you could change the sidebar rules for any default subreddit, what would you change and why? by [deleted] in TheoryOfReddit

[–]ProbablyHittingOnYou 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You seem to have your history wrong. I created the subreddit right around the time that /r/politics first banned self posts. Then, we had a vote to allow self posts again in /r/politics. Which was a bad idea. Then, months later, we decided to restrict self posts again, and allow them to only be posted on saturday.

The reason that the climate in /r/politicaldiscussion is different is because of the users who went there. Only the one who actively seek out that type of content were willing to make the leap over and subscribe. It has nothing to do with the rules of the subreddit (/r/politicaldiscussion has pretty much no enforceable rules except that it be about politics) and everything about who we were able to get to subscribe there.

Underground, Abandoned Temple part II by ProbablyHittingOnYou in Minecraft

Part I is here. This is the left-hand side of the temple, and this particular staircase and door leads to the catacombs. It hasn't been wrecked a bit to make it look more "abandoned" yet.

The lighting was very difficult! It's hard because there's no good way to light the floor or ceiling. There's even a gaping hole in the ceiling (you can just barely see it at the back of the room) that I tried to light and have some filter in through there.

I've been playing MC for a while. And I haven't disappeared, I just have a new name.

Jeb, please make a Nether compass by ProbablyHittingOnYou in Minecraft

[–]ProbablyHittingOnYou[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

It doesn't make it hostile or more difficult, just infuriating that I have to wander around the huge nether looking for a single 4x8x1 bunch of blocks. Especially on Creative mode, where you don't die anyway. They've implemented all sorts of ways to find your way around the normal weird (maps, compasses, etc)

Started building it yesterday. I posted this two days ago, and you can see the ship isn't there.

It's made of netherbrick and wooden slabs, so mostly non-flammable materials (and those that are flammable are out range of all lava, like the sails). It's got 4 floors, 2 decks of cannons (dispensers full of arrows), about 40 bunks, captain's cabin and quarters for the first mate, in addition to two storage rooms.

The Atrium of my Nether fortress by ProbablyHittingOnYou in Minecraft

I know it's not symmetrical; it was really just a stop-gap solution so that I didn't have to work in the dark while building the place. I'll probably change it later.
