Sponges actually were useful for anti-grief, as if a griefer filled water all over your house, you would place the sponge to dry up the water, thus helping you protect your house. I know that explosives like nukes definitely shouldn't be an option to griefers, but sponges and other blocks are just an excuse.
One thing: I know sponges are decoration blocks, but they look sort of ugly to be merely "decoration" blocks. I mean, even bookshelves can be used for enchanting, and leaves be used for harvesting apples/saplings. Of course, item frames and flower pots are just for decoration, but at least they're smaller than one block, making them look pretty. Maybe you can add a use to sponges, a crafting recipe or something like how bookshelves work? I do support the idea of sponges being obtainable in survival through water biomes though.

I set up a poll once to see if people wanted me to include it as a potion. It failed.

I can't really think of a crafting recipe that would include sponges. I will try to think of a use for sponges, but I think they are fine the way they are.

I will add a question to the poll if they should have one.
I will be working on a few banners this weekend. Also, since so many people want a use for sponges, can they share some ideas to let me know? Thank you,

I have postponed the banner, for now. In two weeks or one I will be ready for it. I am sorry for changing dates on this, I can only go on the forums on my phone. I am still going to work on this suggestion and improve it though
I have also deleted the supporters list, and instead put a poll up for supporters.

This would be pretty interesting to see in Minecraft. Just wondering, would there be any technical differences between regular sponges and red sponges, or just for aesthetics? I support, in case you're wondering.

There wouldn't really be a difference between the red sponge and the sponge, just aesthetics
they should only spawn in oceans since all reefs are salt water based, they will act like all sponges used to in classic and indev erasing water within a 5×5×5 area
They should have a use though..Mayby you can craft a underwater breathing helm with them?
Edit:8th page, so I am going to have to make a banner sooner or later.
Please do. Such an amazing suggestion should have such an amazing banner.
Makes minecraft more realistic.
Thank you for the support everyone!
