Welcome Wombat59,
It's nice to meet you, I can't wait for you to get started playing in our great community. We have many servers that you can access through our world hub when you first log into our servers. As a new player if you need any help don't feel shy to ask around.
I also highly recommend if your having some trouble visit our wiki page at:
