Why do you want to join?
The "flyer" makes DarkTide seem so enticing, especially with the whole "griefing is allowed". I'm interested in how everyone interacts with each other in this sort of environment.
I don't think I've gotten to the point where I do not want to build something in a world, but there has been times where I don't want to touch a nice place/area (but still want to be near it or cleverly build something in it and not affect its beauty).

why do tall cliffs and caves, a quite common occurrence in this game, fascinate people so much? like their mind is just blown every time that the game did something it's designed to, and you just happened to spawn near a patch.
Because it's pretty. Accidentally or deliberately generated, it's still pretty. And it gives a sense of "this would be cool if this was real". Having low expectations for procedurally-generated worlds also helps.
Also, people who played Minecraft in its early Alpha days appreciate the changes in the frequency of cool-looking land features. *puts on Hipster kitty glasses* We were excited when there was sand and no water nearby!
I have a relatively new laptop running with a dual core 2.2 Ghz, 4 gb of ram and 1.8 gb graphics. I really do not see what is causing this game to lag so much, execpt that it is running on a wireless network, but i thought that it would get better as i sat there. My desktop downstairs runs at like 300 fps and has no problem running the game.
1.8 GB graphics? Sounds like a number for integrated graphics with shared memory. If it is integrated graphics, that may be the problem.
Also, check laptop battery-saving settings. Even when it's plugged in, it could be limiting the processing power by 50% (my laptop's "Power saving" setting limited the processing power to 50%, even when plugged in).
When I first played, I had no idea about the crafting stuff (I was fresh from the survival test before it was kind of phased out). I spawned right next to an open cave, and just walled the entrance (and walled the rest of the cave) with dirt blocks and placed a wood block to close the opening (I still wanted to see what was happening outside).
I think that it would be important that the location of the save files for every major OS that minecraft runs on should be listed somewhere on the forums, perhaps a sticky, as i have seen a huge amount of people ask this on the IRC.
If it is in fact on the forum as a sticky, i need to lurk moar.
I'm sure it's buried in a couple of tutorials/guides. NBTedit had instructions on how to locate them so you can get the level.dat.
When I found my first dungeon, I had no idea about the mob spawners (back when these were new and we were able to pick them up), and there were a bunch of skeletons that were spewing out after I made a 1x2 hole in the wall of the dungeon. After a few tries of trying to get a door to seal that hole, I got it sealed and put a sign that said:
Lots of
zombies.
Dont know
why.
Wish I still had it, but when I read up about being able to pick up the mob spawners (and finding out about the "Peaceful Mode" (seriously, I had no idea)), I went in, picked it up, and removed the sign.

No really, it's the logic gate stuff.
