When I'm just hanging around in the area around my house, I will play on Easy difficulty. But when I'm mining or exploring either the surface or caves, I'll put it on Peaceful. And not having weapons means I have a few extra slots for ore or other items I've mined or found.
I also do most of my major building on Peaceful.
To each his/her own. Every person has their own way of playing the game.
I used to always leave it on normal no matter what. Now that spiders can climb walls the dirt barriers I'm fond of to protect my building zones are more hassle then it's worth. If I'm building I don't want to waste time fending off spider attacks and the set up/clean up for the barrier is annoying. I always switch to peaceful when working on my mob spawner, it's not even ready yet but there's no way i'm going to drop enough torches to light it so mobs won't spawn while i'm working on it.
I've messed around with mods and stuff, and I just like playing mostly vanilla
I just have the SimpleMap Mod that came with BetterLight, a texture pack, and thats it... I always leave it on normal, unless i'm getting intense amounts of lag from entering a new area while branch mining for diamonds or something... if I'm near a cave system, the mobs slow my feeble computer down.
My house has a basement, and then a tunnel that connects to my elaborate mining system... so whenever nighttime hits, I just go down there, and SimpleMap has a system that tells you when its light and day out...
basically, I am always occupied with something, and I have minecarts all the way to and from layer 10, so it's not a huge deal when I gotta "go down to the mines". because of that, it's really not that big of an issue for me, but I also just feel as if nighttime should be something to be feared. If the mob was so easy to kill, why switch it to easy? you could say their annoying, but we all know we fear the creeper attack! when I really need to do a huge build, I just light up the area to no tomorrow... On my old worlds, I would switch to easy, and I never felt like I was cheating, but it was just boring... there's not really an objective to the game, but I feel like by going to peaceful, you're eliminating one of the few goals you have; survival
lololololol for rambling opinions,... it's 4:30am here and I just got off minecraft to check this site haha...

I love Minecraft and I love music. YouTube Channel: daugystikproductions. I will continue posting a couple drum covers every week on there and possibly doing Minecraft videos in the future. All feedback is appreciated.
This.
On Normal -
Doo dee doo, building le house.
*SSSSSSSS* Goodbye house.
On Peaceful - Doo dee doo, building le house.
*1 hour later* Huzzah! Now to change it back to normal...
*SSSSSSSS*
At least that's my experience.
