Not added to the main signboard yet, but we our front door's around 263x/-63z (note to self when lost). Nice place with high spires of dirt and rock and an incredible shortage of coal, but we found some anyway!

Okay those are pretty cool.
>Achievements
...Really Notch, really? God damn it what is it with the current generation of gaming that feels the need to be rewarded for doing any-fucking-thing?

It keeps people interested in otherwise boring games.
I'd think that playing around with music blocks / redstone dust and redstone logic shit / misc building projects would be more than enough to keep someone interested in a game. If someone needs to get some shiny bauble just to do something than I feel sorry for them. It's a sandbox, you can do whatever you ****ing want; why do you need some badge saying "I did X, look at me guys!" to want to play it?

Not everyone finds Internet legos as fun as you do.

Lemme guess, "It's about keeping track of your progress in the game," right?
with stats being introduced, achievements will come into being some way whether through mods or officially. the nice thing about them both is that you can ignore them either way, whether it's a button in-game or a thread on the forums

tl;dr: deal with it
So because one is added the other is an absolute necessity?
If you don't like them, why give a shit? I'm not coming to this thread to read some tirade against Big Gaming and their destruction of our moral fibre. More creepers-stuck-on-a-floating-island pics please.
