  1. you have a point, but don't have to be a asshole about it. You could have just left one comment and left, and me and other people who want to try and help can. there is nothing on the forums that say you HAVE to know computers, or you HAVE to be experienced. Sure, its a good idea, but some people just want to learn things!

    @davisjack have you done it yet?

    No, that's commons sense. You have to have a knowledge about what you are doing, or it will just end in disaster. Do you teach people to do derivations before they actually learn to read and write?
     
  3. sure, if thats what they want to learn.

    Here are some tips on running a server:
    1. You must learn on how to understand/guess what an error means in your console so then you don't end up crashing your server and loosing everything.
    2. You must learn on how to understand and configure configuration files using a slightly advanced text editor. Ex. Notepad++
    3. You must know on how to install and update plugins properly and efficiently.
    4. You must know how to report a problem to support properly.
    5. You must know how to use Hamachi if you're going to.
    6. You should know how to limit what players on your server can do. Ex. By using permissions. So then they don't do something reaaaallllyyyy bad.
    7. You should understand how time consuming and how effort taking it is to be a server admin.

    I'm sure I forgot some other stuff you'll need to know, but this is all I can really think of today.

    I think you'll need a personal assistant to help you. I'll help you set up a server. What I need you to do is find run.bat, and open it with notepad and Copt and paste it's code here.

    that was because you didn't react for a longer time so he'd really be without help

    Anyway, did he post the run.bat anywhere or am I just not seeing it? The error can be there.

    what error box?

    You see my point? All you had to do was use google or wikipedia, but no, you rather sit here and wait for others to do all the work. THAT's why I'm saying you should not host a server.

    Look that is a file NAME, so, if the name is "xxx" or "xxx(7)" is it the same name? Nope. There's your problem.
