If you're talking Youtube, it's all about click through rate. In other words, the algorithm shows the video in a couple of peoples feed, and if they click on it, the algorithm show it to a few more people, and that keeps going. But when it doesn't, it means not enough people click on the video.

2 easy ways to fix it are: better thumbnails, and better title for the vid. Thumbnails lure peoples attention, titles lure interest. I believe you can track how many people actually click the video now, so make a couple of thumbnails and titles and switch them after an hour or so, this way you can find out what titles and thumbnails work the best and build from there (but don't get too clickbaity with it).

Of course, when people click, they want to see a good vid, so keep them interested for at least 8-9 minutes, I believe that's the threshold where the algorithm thinks the video is well liked. And getting likes and subs is always good.

I'm not a Youtuber, so I haven't tried these things out in practice, but these were some tips I read online.

Force yourself to build a house only using blocks that have come out since you stopped playing. Prismarine, purpur, bone blocks, concrete, terracotta, not to mention all the new 'machines' they've added for 1.14.

You know how a piston moves a block 1 blockspace over? A double piston extender can do 2 blockspaces. Horizontal ones are pretty easy, vertical ones less so. It gets really interesting when you go to triple or quadruple piston extenders.

Rules have become stricter, I've had my bad experiences with moderators here in the past (no further comment), but from a texturepack-makers perspective, the past 2.5 years have been relatively the same.

I think the best way of putting it is: the site is dying at the same rate as Minecraft itself, which is to say, very slowly.

Usually when I read a book in MC, I never read past the first 10 pages anyway. The layout (large letters on a small page) make it seem a page never contains a lot information anyway.

If anything, I'd prefer the pages to contain more text than they do now. Combined with the same limit of 50 pages, this should mean you can add more text.

Your computer must be very weak then for a program like Skype to affect it drastically

I run a pretty beastly machine, and even I notice the difference between having Skype on or off. Skype eats away at RAM, CPU usage, bandwidth, basically everything you need to have a pleasant gaming experience, and not just MC. I always prefer Steam chat because that's way more friendly for your PC.

Xeons for gaming? That's either you overdoing it, or you trying to be cheap. Either way, I'd look at CPU usage...

I agree with guestds: Chickens on hoppers going into a chest is basically the only way to make an eggfarm. I can't imagine a better way.

Make a new texturepack in the resourcepacks folder. Then create the following folders inside each other, in the folder of the resourcepack: assets>minecraft>textures>gui>title and place your new logo in there (beware of the layout it has) and call it minecraft.png. That should do it

You could take a look at OPLs Model Creator (free), or Sphax BDCraft Cubik (paid).

I prefer OPLs one, because it allowes much higher resolutions than Cubik can. Although Cubik has the advantage of being able to rotate elements, something you can't do in OPLs Model Creator.

Ah, when the despressing becomes inspirational.

Also, I agree. Telling her you love her is something special, which you should A). not use because it might scare her at first, and B). save for when you're in a relationship. Love is special, and should be treated as such.

But you have to just go for it, otherwise you'll regret it for the rest of your life. I can tell from experience.

I'm convinced ISIS isn't the problem. The problem is our governments (western governments to be precise) are letting them do what they do. We had no business invading Iraq and Afghanistan, we had no business in killing Sadam, we had no business celebrating Gaddafis death, but now that the Middle East is in more disarray than it was before, we're pulling out our armies. Well, I say that, but America is still building military bases in places they shouldn't be.

We, as in the Western civilization, have had a big hand in creating the mess that exists. Only when we accept that can we move on to find a solution to the problem.
