You can just ask in open chat if there are any staff online. They'll usually respond or another player will help you out in some way. And it's not likely that every staff, from Admin to helper, would all be at spawn or otherwise have grey names for a long period of time. And it's no secret who are staff, no need to whisper it. If someone is hacking, they're probably going to continue hacking even if they know staff is on, or you could screenshot and post a report on forums and get rid of this issue entirely.

They'll still apply, thinking they're the exception.

A good rule to abide by: walls should be 3 layers thick, 2 at a minimum. It forces you to build with depth, giving a lot more character to walls. Of course there are always a few exceptions, but generally, this makes everything look better.

Though I've never and hope to never see Herobrine in game. He is in fact real. Why else would I be able to find him in my resourcepack? If I go to check out the textures in my computer files under minecraft, go to entities, and scroll through the list, Herobrine is there plain as day. He has a texture and everything custom for the resourcepack. That must mean that there is an entity under the name of Herobrine in Minecraft. He is real and I hope I never get face to face evidence to back it up.

I'm glad I've never seen Herobrine. I don't think I could recover from something like that. The sounds alone scare me half to death. If I actually saw him, that'd be the end of me.

@PlesleronTepryos Try this one:

Markiplier's brother makes that comic! XD Only reason I know about it lol
And don't make fun of Plesleron for picking that one. It's just as bizarre yet popular as any other idea we as humans came up with. How are talking, humanoid animals any weirder than elves, goblins, werewolves, vampires, aliens, most types of anime, or even superheroes? Just another fantasy idea that for some reason gets a lot more hate than its equally weird counterparts.

I use Sphax 256x256. I know a lot of people say it's just too cartoon-ish, but it's a lot better than the headache default gives me and the style of it is pretty cool. But if I could find a kinda steampunk/medieval resourcepack, i'd probably use that.

Parkour! Oh how I've missed it so! :D

@LeoSushi

How are we off topic? This is about strange, mysterious things that we have seen and that is exactly what we're talking about. Whether or not the occurrences we are talking about have to do with confirmed legends of Minecraft, they are still mysterious things we have seen that question and create more legends.

@BaronBattleBread I have seen, just once, the coexistance of lava and water stacked.
source blocks ontop of eachother, flowing in oposit directions, neither creating obsidian nor stone of each other.

Id never seen it before, or since. It was astounding to witness.

What realm do we live in where the bizarre tendencies of nature astound even the gods!
