I'm a 13 year old boy and i asked my dad if he could help me get a server on minecraft because he would have to type in am "administrators password" in order for me to proceed to get my server. The reason i wanted a server is because i wanted to play with my next door neighbor who doesn't have a server. My dad said that if i made anserver other people would access my computer and send my information to some criminal group. I then explained to him that you can only have a limited amount of people in your server and you can make a private one if you only want certain people on it. He just said no and said that we would lose all of our money.minecraft is not a scam game.over 8, 000, 000people have an account and have servers. So i don't think that we will lose all of our money.
i then told him that my neighbor isn't a criminal and i just want to play the game with him. He did the same exact thing when i wanted to buy the game. I'm really mad right now and i think hes being suspicious over nothing. I have looked up videos of minecraft servers goig wrong and i HAVEN't FOUND ANY. So i would be very grateful if you could respond to my problem and show my dad that hes being completely unreasonable. (sorry for typos i'm doing this on an iphone)
