Just curious how many people are experiencing the nether fortress going dead after an initial visit? Initially the fortress was populated with all sorts of baddies: blazes, skeletons, and nether skeletons. However after leaving and coming back it was a ghost town. I have seen this on many other maps (starting with 360) but it wasn't a big deal as I just built blaze farms.
But with the fact that the wither doesn't have a spawner, it is now more than an annoyance. I've seen other people report similiar issues, and I'm wondering if anyone had a fix beyond reseting the nether, or things you can do to avoid it becoming a ghosttown. Otherwise I guess I just need to farm for days before setting up any kind of transportation farming systems. Note, I don't know if it because I disabled the auto-save but if I park at my farmer for a long while the system almost breaks down due to all the mobs... Laggy Goodness.
It's glitched right now, you need to reset your nether every time you want to fight the mobs in the fortresses. Too bad it doesn't stop Ghasts from spawning.

Yeah its a glitch. I have had to reset my nether numerous times. I did finally get 3 wither skulls though! I spent 4 hours and got 1 then spent 10 minutes on christmas and got 2!
