    I suggest going with someone like PogoStick29Dev instead, who explains all the basics really comprehensive.

    I usually never watch video tutorials so I don't know about the quality of those recommended videos (though I've heard that the ones suggested aren't great), I highly recommend you don't do anything with the Bukkit API just yet. Learn Java first, get used to Object Oriented Programming (OOP). Java is the language you are using when you develop Bukkit plugins. It will be a heck of a lot easier to code plugins when you have an understanding of Java. Learning Java while you learn a new API can have the disadvantage of the learner getting confused, lost, and resulting in bad programming practices. You wouldn't write a book in a language you haven't learned yet so don't program seriously with Java until you understand it. Bukkit is just an API, Java is the language. http://docs.oracle.com/javase/tutorial/

    Learning to code with BCBlowz is about akin to shooting yourself in the foot. Then pouring salt in the wound. Then shooting yourself in the head.

    Never, ever, use these tutorials. These tutorials are the reason this forum is so popular, because they follow his tutorials and then they come here wondering "hurr durr, why des code nt wrk."

    Use a real tutorial to learn Java, then try and learn Bukkit, as teej107 suggested.

    Learn java, I made the mistake of learning bukkit before java and I sucked, I didn't get any better until I took a few computer science classes.

    If your in high school I suggest taking a computer science class. It really helps I am taking AP right now and its fairly easy even though my teachers a dick.

    You could also try learnjavaonline.org, it's not as good as the Java Trail, but it's interactive.

    I have a problem with the plural-ness of this topic... (lol I'm still on my 1st project with 2k lines)
    Anyhow, good luck. Remember, eventually you need to figure out how to read this, and search it just as often as you do google when working on the code.
