I recommend starting out by watching a few videos such as the first few videos of this series: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bh4EexJO4I

Seriously, knowing how to do stuff makes the game much more enjoyable. Also, the wiki is your friend: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Crafting

Figuring it out yourself is something that you'll never get a chance to do again, and would have made a lot of games much more enjoyable for me and a lot of other people. It's the same as the 3x3x3 Rubik's Cube, we all wish that we'd figured it out ourselves instead of using a tutorial.

I disagree in this case. I mean, what are the chances you'll figure out how to make a portal? I mean think about it. First you'll have to figure out how to get obsidian. You'll need a pickax or figure out how to make it using lava and water. But for the lava and water you'll have to figure out how to make a bucket(not too hard but still). Moving on, you need to figure out how to make flint and steel. What are the chances of figuring this out yourself? What if you didn't even realize all this was an option?

What I really like about minecraft is the ability to create new things such as different types of boosters or a minecart station with redstone and stuffs or playing with water physics. I don't care too much about guessing which combination of things make flint and steel or any other item. With the Rubik's Cube, there's at least a logical background to figuring out how each piece is affected when you do certain moves. With items in minecraft, there are no guarantees that what you are trying to craft even exists without looking it up.

Actually the first time I played I found flint from some rock or something which I broke with a flower.

Also, my server has 8gb ram, it's on most of the day GMT, and doesnt lag. Isn't on now, but will be tomorrow. 82.8.205.106:25565. Also if anyone can help, sometimes people get disconnected and cant connect until I restart it. Help...?

Got tons of plugins on (using bukkit): Blockcantkeepupspam, chocolate fever, godpowers, heroicdeath, iconomy, levelcraft, localshops, locker, lottery, mobbounty, multihome, noexplode, permissions, simplesave, spawncreature, tele++, and worldedit.

RAM is not as helpful as a processor would be when hosting a server. However, 8gb can't hurt.

You get flint from gravel, but flint and steel is a tool used to make fire, crafted from flint, and... well... iron.
 
I really don't enjoy playing on a server with other people...

Does this make me super anti-social? I play computer games because I want to avoid people for a bit, it's like my quiet time.

I also relish taking a project and completing it myself. I'll upload some photos later of what I've been up to and you can all gawp at how much I must have been avoiding human contact to make my obsidian pyramid, for example, that used more than 2000 blocks.
