I was there, 3000 years ago

I remember first hearing about Nether Portals and going, "That can't be true, that's an Urban legend like Herobrine." and 'proving' it by constructing a 3x4 obsidian arch and placing a lava bucket inside. Obviously, it didn't light.

I started at 1.3, back when villages were new and when stuff like the wither was a thing of the future
