Lord_Ralex posted a message on Serious Minecraftforum.net Admin ProblemsIf you are not able to post within the rules, what else do you expect to happen except to get infractions? And then claim that you have the right to post, which does not exist as this is a private forum. We could in theory act exactly like a dictatorship to how you think we are, however you clearly and knowingly break rules, then try to say we are being dictators and overloads?Posted in: Contact Forum Administration
Because of confidentiality, I cannot fully explain how you are attempting to twist this into an attack because of what you did. All I can is: you break the rules, you get infractions. You broke rules, you got infractions. But I would say that the snippet you took in order to try to make me seem evil does not really capture everything and how you were acting to me to start with. I would like to point out only posting what you want just makes it less effective.
People are free to speak their mind as long as they do it within the rules, which clearly say be polite and don't flame.

This isn't a suggestion for adding content to Minecraft.

Most threads are created by a separate account. IP banning is also not a practical means of making spam go away as it is very easy to circumvent.

I did a sweep and will linger for a time before going to bed.

Oh for the love of... Guess I'm not sleeping as early as I wanted to.
I just removed six pages of it and there's likely to be more. I can't be around all the time to remove it but I can do so in sweeps.

Carrots and baked potatoes now restore 1 less hunger point restore 3 hunger points instead of 4
When a furnace runs out of fuel, the smelting progress will pause instead of resetting - Bug.

Messages are now either chat, system or action bar messages
Action bar messages are always shown, chat and system messages are only shown if chat settings are configured that way

Villager profession is now displayed in trade GUI
Villagers start out with 2 trades unlocked
There are now more villager professions (only notable trade changes and additions listed)
White robe: Librarian (now buys stacked written books, can now offer different enchanted books)
Purple robe: Cleric (now only sells a single piece of redstone, sells lapis, buys ender pearls and rotten flesh)
Default skin: Fisherman (buys string, coal, cooks normal fish, sells enchanted fishing rods), Farmer (no longer sells melons, buys melon blocks, pumpkins, potatoes, carrots, sells cake and pumpkin pie), Fletcher (buys string, sells bows, converts 10 gravel into 10 flint), Shepherd (sells colored wool)

Walking on it is slower than walking on soulsand
When fell on, mobs will bounce up to 60% up again
Prevents fall damage

Only for decoration
Granite
Smooth/Polished Granite

Additionally, there is now a material cost - Enchanting also costs 1 to 3 pieces of lapis lazuli or gold now
The actual enchantment calculation is the same
One of the enchantments will be displayed in the tooltip
The enchantments you would get on a tool will not change until you enchant something - This enchantment seed is stored per player
Leveling up now takes longer
Reduced anvil costs to adjust to this change - Notable: renaming items will now only cost 1 level, repairing will now start out with 2 to 5 levels and tools can be repaired longer and with better enchantments, repairing costs can no longer be kept down by renaming items
• World difficulty can now be locked per world to prevent accidentally changing it when joining the world
Locking can not be undone
• Improved doors
Now stack to 64
Crafting recipes changed to give 3 doors instead of 1

• To use, select the new 'customized' world type, and then press the 'customize' button beneath.
• There are 4 pages to customize the world:
• Page 1: customizes generation of structures, chance of lake generation, size of certain structures, and biome type and size, and sea level. There are 17 customization options which affect whether generated structures will spawn in, as well as other environmental factors. Some of these presets are Yes/No inputs or sliders. Sea level height, toggles for cave, village, temple, dungeon, water lake, lava lake, stronghold, mineshaft and ravine generation, sliders to control water lake, lava lake and dungeon rarity, toggle to turn oceans into lava oceans, biome selection, biome and river size sliders.

Rarity, height range and vein size.
• Pages 3 & 4: expert customization of the terrain generation.
There are 16 customization options which can be used to affect various aspects of Minecraft's terrain generator. These can be changed by moving sliders or by typing in values directly.
Main noise scale X/Y/Z to smooth out terrain, larger values for smoother terrain.
Biome scale/depth weight and biome scale/depth offset to stretch/squash terrain vertically based on the biomes default height settings.
Upper/lower limit scale to make terrain more solid/riddled with holes, depending on how close the values are to each other.
Height stretch to pull terrain upward, with smaller values causing more extreme stretching.
Height scale, coordinate scale, depth base size, depth noise exponent, depth noise scale.
• There are seven presets:
Water world, isle land, caver's delight, mountain madness, drought, caves of chaos, good luck

Pistons & Slime Blocks
Slime blocks will now push and pull blocks adjacent when connected to sticky pistons.
Connected to normal pistons, slime blocks will only push blocks, but not pull them
Coded by KaboPC and Panda4994[1][2]
Up to 12 slime blocks connected to a piston in any arrangement can be moved as long as the following conditions are met: blocks do not disrupt the chain, non-moveable blocks are not in the way or slime blocks are not attached to the piston itself
Follows all the rules that pistons follow, for example blocks which can normally be moved by pistons can be moved if attached to slime blocks
Allows for more contraptions, from new redstone clocks, moving devices, farming etc
Extending a piston with a slime block on top of it will launch the entity (mobs, players, items, launched arrows etc) into the air[3]

• World border
The warning, a red-colored aura seen when within a certain distance of the world border
Only visible on Fancy graphics
Outside the border, the warning is at full strength
Inside the border, the warning gradually gets stronger as the player approaches the border
If the border is stationary, the warning is first seen as the player passes the warning distance, default 5 blocks from the player's location
If the border is shrinking quickly enough, the warning will be first visible at the warning time, default 15 seconds from the player's location
New options
/worldborder damage <buffer|amount>
buffer (default 5) is the distance (in blocks) into the barrier before a player starts to become damaged
amount (default 0.2) is the amount (per block) of damage a player will take, for each block-distance the player is past the barrier's buffer
/worldborder warning <time|distance>
time (default 15) is the advance notice given (in seconds) to a player, using the red warning, that a shrinking world border is approaching their location
distance (default 5) is the distance (in blocks) at which the red warning will start to appear, as a player approaches the barrier
The border in the Nether is now the same size as that of the Overworld
Portals
Traveling to the Nether will now not create new portals outside the boundary
It is still possible to emerge at an existing portal outside the boundary
• Spectator mode
Spectators now have a UI to teleport to other players
Activated by mouse middle-click, or pressing a number key
When more than 8 players are available to choose, the sides will be replaced by arrows
When teams are set up, teams can be selected individually to only display that team's players
Both number keys and the 'pick block'-button together with the scroll wheel can be used to control the interface
Teleportation works across dimensions
"Far from complete"

• Stairs
All icons for stairs in the inventory are now viewed at a different angle
• Model format improvements
New tag "textures" to specify the textures used by the model.
Removed the directional attribute from the uv definition and replaced it with explicit texture references
"textureFacing" renamed to "texture", it is prepended with the hash symbol (#)
"useAmbientOcclusion" renamed to "ambientocclusion"
"rotateVariantTextures" renamed to "UV lock"
"cull" renamed to "cullface", specifies the opposite of which neighboring face causes culling to occur
Example: if you have an east-facing face but want it to be culled along a different axis (let's say Z), you would specify "cullface": "north" or "cullface": "south".
Rotation made more verbose, it is now more clear that it can only occur on a single axis
Example, the rotation for one of the two faces of the "cross" model is now: "rotation": { "origin": [ 8, 8, 8 ], "axis": "y", "angle": 45, "rescale": true },
The folder models/blocks/meshes was removed and model files are now stored in models/blocks.
The folder blockstates was added and stores the model selection files previously found in models/blocks.

• Commands
/replaceitem <entity|block> ...
Can replace items in any inventory, including the inventories of mobs such as zombies
Full syntax:
/replaceitem entity [amount] [data value]
/replaceitem block [amount] [data value]
Example: /replaceitem entity @e[type=Zombie] slot.weapon minecraft:iron_sword 1 0 will give all the zombies iron swords
Example: /replaceitem entity @p slot.hotbar.0 minecraft:fish 4 2 will put 4 clownfish in the players first hotbar slot
Example: /replaceitem block ~ ~-1 ~ slot.container.5 minecraft:redstone_block 1 0 will put a redstone block in the 6th slot of a container 1 block beneath the player
• Debug Mode world type
Useful for resource pack makers
Hold ⇧ Shift and cycle through "World Type" to select it
Spectator mode recommended to avoid crashes (you can use creative mode too without any effect on some machines)
All possible blocks with all possible data values are generated
They are arranged in a grid across height y=70, with a barrier floor at y=60
Blocks placed are deleted, and blocks destroyed are restored
There is a special generator option preventing this. It is called "debug_all_block_states". If you change this to "flat" or "default" in NBTexplorer, you will be able to interact with the world. Only for a short period though, on most machines there will be lots of lag or the game might crash. (Not recommended to play survival on)
Changes
• Commands
/execute
Now has a detect argument (sub-command, only works when used with execute)
Allows the execute command to run only if a block is detected at a specific location relative to the target
Example: /execute @a ~ ~ ~ detect ~ ~-1 ~ minecraft:grass 0 say You are standing on grass.
/worldborder
Now has an add argument
Similar to the set argument, but can be used to add (or remove) a certain number of blocks to the world border distance
Negative numbers can be used to remove blocks
Example: /worldborder add -75 will shrink the world border width by 75 blocks
/fill
Block limit changed from 4096 to 32768 blocks

I recommend starting on normal since you're punished in most of the games for trying to beat it on easy (not the best ending, don't unlock extra, etc). It makes you build up skill that you wouldn't earn on easy and the patterns aren't too overwhelming for starters. Might be hard, but practice makes perfect.

If you want a better chance for skulls use a looting III sword + modify the fortress to make spawns a little better (others may have touched upon that already).
Patience is required. Skulls are rare drops even with Looting III.
