I dont know if this has been suggested yet. I think it would be interesting if the slime balls would be used as a kind of glue so pistons can move more than one block. Maybe something like only a glued structure can be comprized of like 4 blocks. Something I ran into was I am makeing a secret passage door in a wall. A door should move back and slide to the side, the door is made up of two stone blocks stacked on top of each other. All I am saying is it would be much easier if the mechanism I made would just move the bottom block and the top one could be glued to it and move as one piece
What it comes down to is SOLIDARITY. If your suggestion is worth posting, it is worth solidifying. What better way than for strong intelligent individuals to build the suggestion from a dirt hovel to a magnificient castle? You can't get solidarity from making 300 suggestions that all say the same thing. Sure, there's popularity, but there is no voice; there is no power. No one will listen to you if you don't have likeminded individuals backing you up.
I've seen far too many people say that "more suggestions show Notch that an idea is popular" which sounds reasonable until the logic hits like a ton of bricks. Even if there's 300 threads for guns, they're not all going to be on a single page. They'll be spread throughout the 300 threads related to redstone, obsidian tools, backpacks, wolves, maps, armor tiers, pistons, etc. A single thread with 30+ pages shows solidarity and support far better than 30 threads about the same thing.

What if Bravo~Zulu instead SUPPORTED ALPHA'S SUGGESTION?! Do you not think that 26+ yeses on a single thread more than outweights the 5 nos that originally doomed the suggestion?
Let's do the math. Let's assume 300 people have the same idea.
EXAMPLE 1: 300 people create 300 threads. Each thread has 1 yes and 5 nos.
In total, you have 300 yeses and 1500 nos (16.67% yes, 83.33% no)
EXAMPLE 2: 1 person creates a thread, 299 others contribute. This thread has 300 yeses and 5 nos
In total, you have 300 yeses and 5 nos. (98.36% yes, 1.64% no)
Which, do you think, speaks more loudly? Can you tell which one is more popular?
Support the original suggestion, if your suggestion is similar but differs, I can guarantee you're the only one whom cares, post on the original suggestion anyway. Tell them your similar idea on the original thread. When it comes down to it, Notch; if he takes the idea, will take only the basic concept and scrap everything else in preference of HIS implementation.
hahahaha wow seems like you have really though this though, thanks for the education. Looks like I got "dorked" hahahahaha! that was intense! no but seriously folks, I just want some blocks that stick together.

thanks and be safe
Go here for proof http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/475449-glue/
Ah well that is good that it is being suggested a lot. Maybe the idea might be taken more seriously since there are many people speaking on it.
