A physical server hosted by the user and rented from third-party companies, ISPs, universities etc. or free services like NFOservers.com, Adverline.pl and VirtualRack.co.uk which are VPS's seems to be the most common way to host your Minecraft Server.

It's simple, it's easy to use and it doesn't require any other plugins/ add-ons. All you need to know is the level of your character and how much time you're willing to spend on mining resources and building your own world.", Minecraft Servers are great for those who want to play Minecraft with friends, as there is no limit on the number of players allowed and while there are limitations on the maximum number of villagers you can build, you can place practically anything. You will need a high-speed internet connection and a few more dedicated resources than your average computer user may have, so if you are running your server on a VPS or physical machine, it is recommended that you go with an account that offers reliable bandwidth with enough RAM and CPU to keep up with the demands of all players who are online at once.", The great thing about Minecraft is that it gives you unlimited freedom to do whatever you want.

  • Spawn This: Minecraft As a Virtual World
    Spawn This: Minecraft as a Virtual World (presented at Society for Cinema and Media Studies Conference in Montreal, March 2015 and part of a longer essay) Lori Landay, Berklee College of Music à advance in Prezi http://prezi.com/41ifd5nd_erz/?utm_campaign=share&utm_medium=copy&rc=ex0share *à*In 2006, cover stories in Wired and Business Week hyped virtual worlds, speculating that “Virtual worlds may end up playing an even more sweeping role -- as far more intuitive portals into the vast resources of the entire Internet than today's World Wide Web.”1 Second Life and Open Sim grids still have a dedicated user base, as do habbo and Disney’s Club Penguin, but there.com, Google’s lively, facebook’s Cloud Party, and LEGO Universe are all defunct. The promise glimpsed in those virtual worlds has not materialized—or virtualized—in a mainstream way. Until now, with Minecraft. Although it does not look or at first seem like what proponents of virtual worlds have been waiting for, Minecraft is the breakthrough success for virtual worlds. To be sure, there are other transmedial imaginary worlds that are participatory and brimming with user-generated content. There have been player-created servers that mod a game in new narrative, gameplay, and social directions, and create vibrant communities. But no game or other transmedial IP has approached the size or the scope of Minecraft, and its players use Minecraft as a portal into disparate media experiences, including other franchises, to an unprecedented degree. In thinking through how what has emerged through the Minecraft phenomenon has redefined what a virtual world is, this presentation explores three interrelated questions: *à*What does it mean to consider Minecraft as a virtual world? Why has it succeeded as the breakthrough virtual world? How does transmedial experience factor into Minecraft as a virtual world? First, some information about Minecraft that helps us understand how a low-res looking video game spawned a virtual world.

If you are using a Bukkit or Tekkit server, then the connection will be handled automatically and everything connected through the same IP address. You can connect directly by typing the IP address into your internet browser or the host name of the server. If you are using an individual private server, you will need to know an IP address of where your Minecraft Server is located. The easiest way that anyone can get this information is by going to their router's configuration settings and finding out the IP address given from them.

We had a handful of daring students who in these dire straits of the pandemic plucked up courage and entered the Bright Speakers Contest organized by Liceul Teoretic Internațional de Informat- ică București-Colentina and Inspectoratul Școlar al Municipiului București. To our great joy and pride, we have a First Prize winner in the Romanian language speech section, DARIA URSEA, who gave a heart-felt answer to the question asked by the organizers: What have we learnt about our power to adapt during the crisis? Well done, Daria! Keep up the good work all of you who were bold enough to enrol in the competition! Daria Ursea, IX G Winning the public speaking contest, "Bright Speakers"... It all started when I attended a webinar about public speaking made by two amazing teachers, Emi Popescu and Alina Cîrjă, a Spiru Haret National College alumnus and a former pupil of our Romanian teacher, Mrs. Angela Turculeţ, under whose coordination I took part in this competition. Luckily, I took some notes then, because, two days after, our Romanian teacher told us about the contest. If that was not a sign, I don't know what it was! I had the speech structure written from the webinar and it helped me a lot when I wrote the speech.
