@notch will the ghasts only be in hell, or will they be in the normal dimension as well?
@jakeyyyboyy if you've got a gate, they can (rarely) spawn there.
We'll have to build our portals inside obsidian rooms.

<Khusa> the creepers are baby dragons
<Gunmage> Instead of spitting out fire they hold it in until they burst like balloons
<Lisimba> So if you would give a creeper a laxative, would it turn into a real dragon?
Hell Griefing: Go into hell in SMP, portal into someone's base. Steal everything, run away, and wait for a ghast to appear in their base and blow it all to hell. Then get banned.
Of course, mods can probably disable ghasts appearing in SMP.

I personally am going to make a portal a good distance away from my base with a small (actually small) cobbletsone wall around it. Then have like a minigame, bow arrows, no food. See how long you can survive.
Wait, how big are these things? The screenshots have them floating in the air, so I can't tell if they're small-and-near or big-and-far, and the textures look pretty blocky, like they're only the size of a zombie's head. :ohmy.gif:
Having a portal room with very little space around the portal itself seems to be the way forward. Maybe encase it in glass or something.
They, or at least their heads, are 4x4x4. (In one of the pictures, you can see a ghast with its face partially covered by 2 blocks. They make it halfway across its face. Plus, Notch has said it'd be 4 blocks tall.)
Make a room with an obsidian frame with relatively small openings / glass windows. If they're like 2x2 or something, it should be fine, as the ghast will be caged in.
Plan:
Make an obsidian room, takes about 4 real days to mine all the obsidian for it.
Make a hole in the floor and fill it with TNT.
Blow the Ghasts to pieces if they come through.

I think I am going to cry while huddling in a corner.

Or just add an iron door... rocket science. (If one spawns, it won't be randomly destroying all the blocks in the room without a target)
But oh god yes
PLEASE LET GHASTS BE TAMEABLE. Imagine the glory of flying on a ghast blowing up your enemy.

I had a miniature heart attack when I read this thread.

I'm laughing so hard. I guess I'm building my portal OUTSIDE my house in obisidian rooms. Cause **** that **** LOL
