Hi,

I am 69 years old, live in the United States and have worked with computers (and computer games) since 1964. I learned about this server from a news article at http://www.mobipicker.com/players-create-flawless-minecraft-map-five-years/   One of my grandsons loves minecraft and building and I enjoy interacting with him.  I would like him to join this server so we can share in the experience.

I will probably not build very much but I would enjoy working on the wiki or helping with any English writing.  Having watched many attempts at building communities on the internet, I think minecraft is the best method yet, and from what I have seen of The SHire it is clearly a safe and fun place for all kinds of people to work together.

Welcome to the Shire, Joel! Your application has been accepted and you have been promoted to Tyrule - this is where your Shire adventures shall begin! With this newly acquired rank, you can start building at /warp Tyrule 

Here are a few tips to help you;

• At Tyrule there are various boards filled with information about the server ranking, history and rules - I would reccomend giving them a read!
• Tyrules are all set to survival mode, therefore, all supplies for building can be found underneath /warp Tyrule instead of having to gather and craft these resources. Just right click the [Free] sign of the desired resource of your choice
• Tools and enchanting signs can be found at the South East corner of /warp Tyrule - to acquire a tool, right click one of the signs, and to enchant it, hold the tool and right click one of the [Enchant] signs. Tools are very handy as they allow you to easily edit and destroy your build.
• Tyrules build in a plotworld - to claim a plot automatically, do /plotme auto or hover over an empty, untaken plot and do /plotme claim - you can access your plot anytime by doing /plotme home
• Keep in mind, that your build does not have to be huge nor extremely detailed, as long as we get a sense of your building style - a smaller build can be ample too

Once your build is complete, or if you wish to ask any questions, contact a member of staff - these are the members with blue titles or gold titles.

I hope you have a lovely experience playing on the Shire!
