Hey guys. Long-time Tekkiter, first-time caller. My in-game name is Ibeechu. 21/M/Michigan. I'm not banned from any servers. Various Michigan public parks are another story, but I digress. I've played Minecraft on and off for a couple of years using friends' accounts (probably logged nearly a hundred hours or so in Creative), but I never had an account of my own until, well, literally a few minutes ago when a kind Internet-friend suddenly gifted me an account!
I've been interested in joining this server for weeks but, since I didn't have an account, I couldn't try to get in. And now, it turns out the first thing I'm doing after having my own account is trying to get in One of my IRL buddies is whitelisted in this server and was showing me the stuff he's been building (and the stuff everyone else has been building), and that's what got me interested. For months I've been craving a good old fashioned big Minecraft server experience, but I just didn't know where to start. I tried a Vanilla one that's run by a few of my old college friends but it wasn't nearly active enough for me. This one, though, looks like a ton of fun.
Thanks for your consideration

EDIT: Oh, I forgot to mention. One of the things I spent a ton of time doing in Tekkit was programming mining turtles to (nearly) completely autonomously build subway tunnels, and then wiring up display boards at each station showing the train status with a cute little dynamically-updating ASCII graphic. It was really cool. And then that server died :(
