What am I Do'n

[Monrook]

Hello all,
I have been playing (trying to) this game for three days, Now let me start by saying thank you to the creators and everyone that helps run this game. I have to say for being the graphics whore I am, the game play makes the low graphic mean nothing but to the point.

So I got to the point I was able establish a home front in a nice low traffic area. So I laid my foundation and built my Timber house and Log cabin, set up my Kiln and other placed items. I even started Farming, Which was a big deal for me. Now I collected my 4k LP to claim my land. Stacked my Claim and..... from there it went south. I have not been able to extend my land, I keep getting a Land meter.
SO I went fishing for answers on the forums. Most the answers I have found where smart ass Elitist thinking everyone should just know everything. but I found a few that deals with allot of stuff I can not understand. Yea I am stupid when it comes to the change jave Run.bat stuff.... Believe me I try, I really do try. So NOW I can not log in at all, I start searching the forums about this and again I can not find anything but smart ass elitist and trolls making a mess of everything that would of made since if one could of read it before all the crap posts. So what do I do now?

Point is I do not know what I'm do'n. I cant make heads or tails of the forums. Some simple layman term posts would help. If there is anyone willing to join my vent and help me understand this stuff and are able to help me get back in to the game, If its possible please let me know.

I cant make heads or tails of the forums

Well, the forum named 'How Do I' is the one suitable for asking simple questions. You are correct in your assumption that the kind of questions you are asking have probably been asked before: as a general tip, it helps to be both precise and accurate in the search terms used, whether in a search or when asking for help. It's true that the HnH forums are a pit of scum and villainy, but starting off by complaining about it isn't going to get you very far.

In your case your specific complaint seems to be that you are using a non-current version of Ender's client, on which there is some kind of broken Land Management thing, the fixes for which seem to be to either use the default client to increase the size of your claim, or update your client.

Granted one could read this as complaining, That is not was not my intent. I was merely stating my experience thus far. You are correct in that i should be more accurate in what I am after which I thought my last sentence was. I will try to do so in the future. As for the game Land Management thing, I have tried the client updating and have also tried to understand and fallow the flowchart with out success. Unfortunately I have not the smarts or patient to do this stuff.

Is the server up If I wanted to go back to the default client to try ? I have tried to log in with out success.

as for ender, you probably need to download the update file. the "full download" has not been updated according to ender himself a while ago.

There is a wiki page that helped me a lot when I first started, I still refer to it at times. http://ringofbrodgar.com/wiki/Main_Page
