Hello and Goodbye!!
Wow!! Talk about the worst intro to Minecraft multiplayer ever!!!
I get into the game, starting in this cool little village which was all very nice to look at but all PRIVATE, so I couldn't do anything in town. So I decide to go searching for somewhere to start my own little place. I found a great little bend in a river surrounded by trees and decided to try to build an underwater base.
I built a tiny overland room in a hillside for my furnace and workbench and then went about digging out the area I wanted to build on in the riverbed. I had to keep remembering to come up for air of course which made working slow but I almost got there. On my last go I left it too late to come up for air and I drowned.
It wouldn't be a problem but the bloody game stuck me back in the starting village. I have absolutely no way of finding my way back to where I was building. It took me an hour to find it the first time around.
I spent over 2 hours building and now it is lost somewhere in the game world. What a complete waste of my time. This is just a quick shout out, does anyone know any way I can find where I was or is it simply a case of going out searching? If so then today is not only my first day in Minecraft but probably my last.

Some servers have a /sethome and /home command that allows you to teleport to your set home, you should check and see if the server you are on has that function. Also, make sure you keep a note of where you are going/what direction your creation is in... I.E: North, south, east and west. If you have no way of telling, a dirt block can tell you. Dirt blocks have a white pixel to the edge that always points to the west, as seen in the following image.
