High performance, consistent uptime and fast support. Minecraft hosting that just works.

This has been a thing for quite some time... When it was only mojang, this was still something that a group of people not working for mojang did.

Those 40 countries must have an extremely high education dropout rate...
What could you possibly learn from MC as a young child? How to be "creative" with building? How to build "Redstone Contraptions"?

The trick to not being force-upgraded to Windows 10 is to have auto-install of recommended updates off. I was fortunate enough to have that off before microsoft pulled that dirty trick.
Apart from it being a betatest, I'm WAY too suspicious of them wanting that many people on their new OS. What are their motives on it? they're not turning a profit from sales, that's for sure

They even admitted to this - They are gonna force the update onto users
If they do, I am moving to linux...

That is sad that they want to force update their spying windows 10 onto your computers...
Windows 10 is even worse when it comes to design and usability....

If they do, I'm re-installing from scratch to win-7
Linux is nice, but its not for me

yeah ok, I knew that. have, for a long time. but what's their financial gain? do they sell that data? or do they think they can manipulate us with the data they gather[DOUBLEPOST=1460851441][/DOUBLEPOST]hm, I'm curious, how does it go lisence-wise when support for an Os expires? can people just start tinkering with it then?

Maybe because of all the 'crime' they will solve they will get some reward.

Then they will also get hated by 90% of us.

yep. Though I believe there's already people working on software to block the installed spyware. That sort of stuff can be big business. heck, even a free version with an ad-fly link or similar things would get millions of downloads

I'm honestly astonished that anyone can still defend Mojang/Microsoft for the changes they've implemented. 1.9 is the definition of cancer, the new account security system is practically communism, and the community is God awful.[DOUBLEPOST=1460851702][/DOUBLEPOST]Microsoft is a company that is apart of a capitalist economy. The EULA they have been imposing is literally communism, everything must be fair blah blah blah. Things are 10X more likely to be pay to win now with 1.9 overpowering items.
