I honestly feel sorry for Coconut and the devs when I see: MINECRAFT ISN'T UPDATED DON'T ASK.
And yet, you guys still have several questions a day about it. It really does lower my faith in humanity a little bit when I see that. So I guess this is a support thread. Keep up the good work guys and gals and remember some of us actually do listen:)
Now I have to figure out how to make a creeper visit each person's house who asks:)

I would give them a fake version of Minecolony that did nothing except increase the creeper spawn rate in darkness by 1000x. And when the creeper explodes, it changes the "you have died" text to "Be patient and read the forums before asking for an update" And of course, no actual minecolony files in that, lol.
But yeah, this is probably why it's best that I'm not a developer.

If you did that, then some poor sod who does read the forums will dl it and get screwed. Not cool.

Easily solved with "Alright, I'll send you a link to the new version" while pretending it's hidden somewhere on the forums

Talking of griefing...
With the new game architecture.. i.e. all single player games are actually just locally hosted Multiplayer games.. One of the options is server texture packs...
If a person sets up a game with a custom texture pack.. apparently when someone connects to the game the server will ask them if they wish to download and use the server texture pack.. Issue is this custom texture pack can be hosted by the server, or the server (game) owner CAN SPECIFY A 3RD PARTY LINK to download it from - the game will then connect to this location and attempt to download and install the texture pack...
Um... that sounds like a security nightmare !!! I for one will NOT be connecting to any servers I don't personally know the owner of, and definately wont be downloading any 3rd party texture packs to my machine...

It could be a spyware or sh-t like that...

Yeah could be any old thing that it gets you to download... especially as they are usually zip files ?
