My sis and I really want to play together in Minecraft but she always gets lost in public ones plus I get lag. I really want to play with her. How can it just be us and no one else?

How do you give people tags/prefixes on your Minecraft server? I have a server but I do not know how to make it say I am the owner in the chat.  Example: Owner Kieranpb7: &lt;text&gt;

What do I do? I looked at a similar question to mine and there was an answer saying to make sure Java is allowed past the firewall. So I checked and it already is. I've tried uninstalling and installing both Minecraft and Java but nothing has changed.  says that all services are fine, so what's going on? I bought a 2nd account to use as an alternative in-game account and now I can't log in.  (I cleared the email and password boxes for obvious reasons in this screenshot: security purposes)

Okay, I try and connect to a server when I have full connection and a ping between 40-80. When I join I just fall through the world for a few seconds.  Sometimes I get the sound like you hit the floor and everything goes black but that is as far as I get. I have deleted and reinstalled Minecraft and have turned advanced OpenGl on. I'm not sure what else I can do that may help solve this problem. Also I do not get any connection issues on other games or on the internet. As far as I can tell the logs on the developer console don't give me any information either.

The Minecraft forums seem to be filled with threads regarding a "block respawn" bug. I set up a 1.3 SMP server on my LAN, and notice this as well. All blocks respawn a couple of seconds after being destroyed, and non-local players lag tremendously.  It makes the game unplayable. Has Notch commented this issue? Is there a solution that makes the game worth buying?

I have a Dedicated Bedrock Server running on my PC, and I can't connect from the same PC where the server is. If I add it onto the list of servers, it appears as "Locating server" and never finds it.    If I try to connect, I get "Unable to connect to world".    On my friend's PS4, it appears on the Friends tab as a LAN Game on a Dedicated Server.    And also on my sister's laptop.

I can browse the web fine, watch YouTube, listen to music, etc. But when I try to join ANY Minecraft server, as soon as I try to make a connection, I either:  Time out my connection  or:   Sit there waiting for it to load, then disconnect  On Minecraft, it says I have good ping to the server, but then I join it and I lag out as I stated above. I can connect to other servers on other games.. but not Minecraft. I have restarted my PC and my modem, still nothing.  What can I do to solve this issue ?

I can't play online. I can only play solo. I have bought Minecraft so it should work fine, but, when I try to connect to a server, it says:  Internal client error: java.net.UnknownHostException: session.minecraft.net   I have tried over 20 different servers and it says the same thing for every single one.   Note: These are not Hamachi servers. I'm attempting a direct connection.

I would like to know if the same Minecraft account used on a computer can be used on a different platform like the Xbox 360? I am not asking about playing on each simultaneously as each platform has been purchased - I am asking if you can cross play on multiple platforms with the same account. Basically I would like to know if all the saved stuff and settings from one platform will carry over to another.

I have a question about a problem I'm having installing optifine with forge on minecraft.  Is there a place where I could ask this question?  I asked this on gaming, but I just got downvoted and told it is the wrong place.  The question is here:

What is the quickest way to spawn  in Minecraft?   Is there an easy single-player mod? Would it be easier to do it somehow with Bukkit?

Anyone have useful strategies for finding a Nether Fortress in Minecraft's Nether?  I got into the nether and wandered around for quite a while, but didn't find anything.  I'm not sure if there are giveaways (I was looking for large building-like things in the distance).  I've got a map, and have explored a small, but not unreasonable part of it.  Any idea how many fortresses a single map might contain?
