This is pretty much everything I had to research before I wrote my first server in C#;

Quote:
* How to code a socket system

* How to multi-thread your applications

[Only registered and activated users can see links. Click Here To Register...]

* Memory management
Knowing when to use 'byte' instead of 'int', and other types instead of a larger sized one,
Knowing when you use a hashtable instead of an array,
Knowing when to use a pointer to a C-styled array instead of a managed array
Knowing why C#'s string class SUCKS and you should avoid it as much as possible

* Generics

* Using unsafe code, yay pointers!
