Yea The fact that you want to ride in to battle ON A ****ING PIG. Or maybe the fact that your crafting recipes make no sense. Maybe that you want to make them flying. Maybe the fact your name is lulzforbacon.
The poll means nothing. the people on this forum are lots of kids that watch 4Kids tv and think it's quality humor.
Think about your idea.
Riding pigs into battle?
That is just plain stupid.
If playing a game with children upsets you, maybe you're pedophobic?
Should I remind you that saddles for pigs are already implemented into minecraft? If you think it's childish, ***** to Notch about it. Also, before you call me an infant, I'm 21.
Why not add a flamethrower to it too? <<<------NOT FER SRS
But for srsface, I support...although, the wings may be a little too ridiculous
I like it! Using netherstone for ammunition would make sense.
True, wings may not make sense, but they serve a practical purpose of allowing your pig to go anywhere you can.
The flamethrower was sarcasm. I know how sarcasm always works on the internet, so I thought it would get a point across. Look at me...being sarcastic again. Anyways, the wings do serve a purpose, but it seems too absurd to me. You can still get in and out of mineshafts with stairs (which pigs can accomplish) instead of ladders or wings.

Whoops already added it xD Well anyways using ladders is so much more convenient to (almost) everyones mining style, just look how SeaNanners (dunno if you've heard of him) digs to the center of the earth. Theres no way he could fit stairs into his mining style. But if Notch ever sees this its up to him on what should be put in and what shouldn't.
Muncher,
Is there a single suggestion you actually like? The idea would be damn awesome. I don't even see what's childish about it. It's no different than horse calvary, except it fits the mood that Minecraft has, and does not require the creation of another mob. On top of that it would be much more entertaining than riding a horse.
Someone disagreeing with you does not make them a child. I can guarantee you the majority of people on these forums are not in fact very very young children. Why don't you get your head out of your ass, and realize that anyone who doesn't exactly agree with your egotistical and overly serious tastes about what should go in a game which is, in essence, about playing with blocks, are not automatically children, and their tastes are not automatically childish.
I like some ideas. But most ideas that I dislike are like these, in the game for the "lulz" and have nothing of value to the game.
I'll drop the childish argument.
lets get to some game breaking aspects of this idea.
1. The fishing rod thing is unnecessary and so is the name tag. The pig should be tamed and kept from despawning when you saddle it.
2. helms are not necessary. they would work for horses but don't make a lick of sense on a pig.
3. diving gear- why would you pig go underwater ever?
4. Pig food- don't get the point of this..... seems very unnecesary
5 pig shoe and armour- wut? why is there gold in this? anyways look at the helm I could see this working for horses but not for pigs.
6 chests- works for horses but not pigs
7 flying pigs and pig spawner- no.
Oh and could someone quote this part so the op can read it?
To op:
You have proven in my eye's that you can't take criticism. This is a board for suggestion. That means people will not like your idea. Your idea is not special. it does not deserve to only have "kind" things said about it. You seem to think that your idea is perfect and it should not be altered at all. That is a very narrow minded and stupid thing to do.
it's funny you would say "just say "i don't approve" is funny because that's what i said in my first post and you thought i was "insulting" you. You say I spammed your thread. Where?
Here's what you need to learn.
You are not special in any way shape or form and neither is your idea. You will have people that disagree with your idea. Choosing to ignore me is the equivalent of sticking your fingers in your ears and say "LALALALA".
Ignoring me does not make me go away.
Your idea is not good.
It could be good if you tried to improve it instead of crying that someone didn't like your idea.

You biggest argument is that you would rather have horses than pigs. Notch hasn't made horses, but there are pigs and they already have the ability to use saddles. Get over it.
On the other hand, I agree that the saddle itself should be enough to be able to control the pig and make it 'tamed.'
Food would be useful for if your pig is attacked or damaged.
The armor/helmets/etc. should be no different than your character's armor. Pig shoes are silly but a way to increase speed is useful.

6 chests- works for horses but not pigs
7 flying pigs and pig spawner- no.
1. Fishing rod and nametag add a nice touch to it. Just because something is unnecessary doesn't mean it's not entirely fun.
2. Point is for armor, so you can take your pig into battle/keep him alive longer in case of skele attack. (Nothing wrong with that, though it is a bit unnecessary coding-wise.)
3. I'll give you that one.
4. Heal the pig...
5. Shoes that make a pig go faster does sound nice, thats what it's for. The armor, I'm not sure how well that would work on a pig. Also it may work well for a horse in real life, but this is Minecraft. It's better to choose the more fun option (IE: pig calvary rather than normal.)
6. How does this not work for pigs? Maybe not in real life, but this is Minecraft, and the suggestion does involve taming and riding pigs.
7. Agree.
You seem to be hung up on the idea that it's a pig. Yes attatching a chest, helmet, metal shoes, etc to a pig make no sense in real life. But this isn't real life. In fact if I could do that in real life efficiently, I don't see a single reason not too. Having pigs do this would be fun, interesting, and original. Back to my original point, you seem to be hung up on the fact that they're pigs. I think while pigs would be cool, maybe they wouldn't be entirely necessary. Focus more on the suggestions as a whole (Ridable, tamable mob that you can take into battle/have as a companion and storage device) rather than a single part (pig)

My golden rule, insultive criticism is trolling, normal criticism is okay, CONSTRUCTIVE criticism is helpful. "I don't approve of this (logical reason without being insulting why) Is normal criticism. Make a suggestion on what would make it BETTER is constructive criticism, while You said it was dumb idea and did not provide any way to make it better. That was uncalled for and neither normal or constructive criticism. Which then you continued said insulting and spamming posts.
And spam is numerous unwanted posts that do no good to anyone.
And about the smaller ideas in themselves.
1. Would allow us to steer pigs and have multiple of them, as well as giving the sense they are an actual creature,
a pet, a familiar. Rather then some moving blocks that you can ride atop.
2. It gives them a way to fend for themselves and some armor, and if horses can wear them, why not pigs?
3. Why would you go underwater even? If something like Oceancraft was implemented then this would allow your pig to accompany you underwater.
4. Your not indestructible, likewise, your pig isn't indestructible, you eat food to heal, so does the pig, this would allow the pig an automatic, yet balanced healing ability.
5. The pigshoe is to increase speed, making it a fast travel mount. And gold is used because gold has very, VERY few uses. And the obsidian armor to make him fireproof, so that he won't die from accidently falling in lava, he isn't as smart as a human you know.
6. Again makes him more helpful, and what do you have with horses? These suggestions would make it fully capable of what a horse could do without bothering with creating a whole new mob.
7. This allows you to ensure your pig will survive, or keeping him from being lost when YOU die. the piggy spawn point will make it so they don't lose him, but can't allow him to kill everything that pops up. And the wings are to negate fall damage on him, aswell as allowing him full capability of traveling with the player.
And I can choose to read the posts that have been blocked by my ignore list.
And I will give you one warning, you have not posted anything helpful to this thread or atleast being civilized with your criticism. Your posts have not done anything but insult me, my idea, and the community. And I have done the best in my ability to avoid a flamewar. Please do not post in this thread again unless your willing to apologize. I have never reported anyone in this forum, and I don't want to, but I will if its deemed necessary.
I find it humorous that you think I care what you think of me. I could care less about your "warnings".
One of the things I think no one gets is that pigs were not meant to be the only ride-able mob. They were put in as a way to test riding mobs.
also it's not my job to make your idea better. that's your job. My job is to judge your idea and tell if its good or not.
1. You could condense this all into the simple act of saddling the pig.
2. Pigs could not wear armour.... pigs are not fit enough to support armour.
3. Pigs should not go under water. they should have some limitations.
4. an automatic healer is not balanced.
5. Gold has no uses. Put it where it fits. Not just in any recipe.
6. A whole new mob is necessary for a ride-able mob. Pigs are for meat. Horses are for Armour.
7. Alot of your amour ideas seem to be trying to make the pig invincible. the pig should be more vulnerable then you. You should have to look after it and make sure it is in top condition. It should need you to survive, not be able to sustain itself.

I can see this being implemented in smp style arena battles but I would nerf the armor especialy the "lava armor" if your character can't survive lava why should the dirty pigehs
As long as he isn't too smart and doesn't act too much like a pet.
I want the pig to be dumb, not really attached to you, not have infinite lives, not be very command able, and cute.
edit: and very weak and requires hard work to sustain, but doesn't involve chores.
I have an idea myself, but I would like to see it improved about to steer less in the direction of pets and more generic mount.
'You feed it pork and if you don't it becomes weak and has low max hearts'
I was halfway through a post for balance updates to it but I think i'll just update the initial post.
The mood fits and adds onto minecraft, if its of any revelance I think muuncher's opinionated insults shouldn't affect anything..
I love it, for all those long days in the rain.. I could talk to my pig, write a book. It's always nice to have a mute AI follow you around, gives you a feeling of companionship.

The first thing that popped into my head BEFORE reading the post was a pig with golden armor and a barbarian helmet, with a person riding on it jousting with another pig
and I lol'd
then, I read the post, and realized "oh my god, this fits into minecraft!" I would like this more than horses.
For one, it has nearly the same advantage as a horse, but with the added "lol" factor of riding on a pig in armor.
I like it. If this is added, it could be a stepping stone for adding more mountable mobs-including horses.
Although, I do not like the underwater suit idea for the pig. I think that underwater companions should be saved for when sea mobs are added.
also, I disagree with the food on a fishing rod. although hilarious, it just complicates a bit too much. Perhaps this could be used for when you try to get a better mount.

Wouldn't be that hard, just food + fishing rod, you hop on the pig, pull out the food rod, and he moves in that direction, once you've done that for a total of a little bit you can manually move him, maybe a durability bar that goes down and once its down and is removed, THATS when you freely control him while riding.
EDIT: And with this guide book idea I had it could be even better.
I agree with the idea of tamed pigs and having them have helmets and body armour/leg armour. It sounds like a good expansion on the current game capabilities. Question however.. Do we feed the pig pork?
No, you would have to feed him some kind of food that'd make sense, if he doesn't feel like adding something that pigs would eat then we could just use bread, its pretty worthless anyways.
But for srsface, I support...although, the wings may be a little too ridiculous
