Resolved Connecting to Server

[BlockCoder]

When I attempt to connect to the server, I get the following error message: "Failed to connect to the server. Not authenticated with Minecraft.net." Please tell me what I need to do to get around this issue.

You need to buy Minecraft to get around this.

I had found a free but full download through TLauncher, and it seems to behave like official Minecraft and has the logos. Would that work, or do I need to get the full version of Minecraft?

You need to get the full version of Minecraft. Our server checks with the Minecraft authentication servers if you have a valid account.

Ok. Thanks!
