it wasnt pointless, because if u was about to learn you wouldnt post this in first place.
U wouldn't even setup server yet.
Here is a good tip.
1. learn the basics about C#, so you know what the different things mean, public, private, void, bool, byte, ushort, ulong, int, uint, string, variable.
2. then start work on your server, cuz u know the basics and when to use the things and where to search etc. then u can look at variables in ur source and how they are used.
3. then learn some more advanced things for c#, such as packets etc.
A good idea would be to take a look at the Metadata for variables in c#.
