Introduction:
Minecraft (MC), as you may already know, is a very popular and great game. MC is an open sand box style game; meaning there is an endless possibility of what your character can create, build and destroy. One of MC’s greatest abilities is being able to run on nearly any PC. Another attractive trait is the ability to run a server of the game, bringing MC gamers together in a single world. Unfortunately getting a server to run optimally and configuring your computer to allow others to connect and play isn’t automatic and requires some configuring.
