Talk:Tutorial / Safe, Easy, & Powerful Nuclear Reactor/@comment-5416864-20120910054514

Can somebody please explain to me why so many people insist on trying to build this without actually reading the tutorial? This is an extremely simple setup and completely safe... but you have to follow the instructions. You can't just read the titles and glance at the pictures and expect it to work! This is a tutorial, not a set of guidelines: build this exact model and you'll get 2040 EU/t completely safely. Change anything without knowing what you're doing, and kaboom.

Please read the entire article before you ask questions. If you genuinely have done everything exactly right and it still blows up, the only possible thing that could have gone wrong is that the server somehow lagged the thermal monitor so long the reactor blew up before it could react. As far as I know, Thermal Monitors never lag more than a few tenths of a second.
