We all know of the zombie misfits that inhabit the nether, but has anyone ever thought of the human counterparts of these ruffians? Mojang sure has. In fact it is currently as one of their "planed mobs". But what would they do? Something lame like "Kill it and you get a porkchop! :D"
...
Lame.
I've given some thought and i've came up with something that will change minecrft forever... And involves these unimplemented, misfits...
We ALL hate it- Replanting seeds. You can automate your wheat farm as much as you want, but you still have to replant. Thats where pigmen come in. Pigmen can spawn naturally as offspring of villagers but are EXTREMELY rare. The easier way to find and emplement them are (Get ready for it)... ENCHANTED PORKCHOPS. Thats right. Here's how you obtain them. Get your porkchop and we'll... Enchant it! (Level 10 or higher) But how does this get a pigman? We'll first you have to find a villager that trades for pork (Currently only a butcher). But instead of giving them a regular chop give them a enchanted one. And behold the pigman!
The pigman has the same structure as humans and zombies, and their texure is a pig wearing overalls!
So why go through the trouble? We'll once you have one, you can lure it back to your base using wheat (like regular pigs). Once their you'll need to enclose your farm (so it can't escape) and create a new block called a "Mob Chest". A chest that mobs can interact with and put seeds in it. Put your pigman in the area (72 block range) and he'll detect any tiled soil without seeds, rush to the chest, grab the seeds and replant for you! FINALLY MAKING YOUR WHEAT FARM 100% AUTOMATIC!!!
Why i believe this ISN'T overpowered.
1st off you have to find a village and a butcher
2nd you have to enchant the porkchops which (depending on the butcher) could take one porkchops, or it could take 10 porkchops!
it also sorta gives an "Old MacDonald's Farm" theme
Thanks for taking time to check out my topic! Please leave replies!
Oh one more thing: Yes they do drop a porkchop if you kill them
They could look like Zombie pigmen without the half of skull showing. They could help you battle, mine, anything, as long as you give them wheat, they will help you with anything!

AHHHHHHH!!!! STOP IT!!! WHAT THE HECK!!! Maveick, you're new, so I'll cut you come slack, but please never post anything like this again. The rules say not to post something that has already been posted, and this has been posted probably 50 times before, no joke. Along with emerald, and obsidian stuff, these are the things you should never post. They are not original, and mojang said they aren't going to add any more materials to make weapons out of. I know you are new, but these things have posted many times, and people more and more hate it the more they see it.
Hmmm, good idea of bringing farming a 1-up; but somehow, it comes to me in mind that how did they become zombies and got transported to hell? I mean, Zombies are in the overworld right? But how did the Zombie Pigmen got unto Hell? Its not like the pigmen were bad right?
As ironic my behavoir is on my post, You have my support, :D.
EDIT: Just saw the above guy's post, so i don't know what now. :T
I was once an ordinary Steve thinking about rainbows when I was struck by lightning to death, but still, my big thought about rainbows, brought me back to life. Now, living as Death, using the power of rainbows in accordance with life and death
1. You can actually automate planting, dispensers plant seeds on tilled soil in front of them. Could be button activated or hooked up to a clock, daylight detector, etc.
2. Complicating things doesn't make it fair just because it's complicated. People with detication, farms, or perhaps even powers depending on the server, will aquire the needed items, and reap the benefits. Next thing you know everyone has this super cool awesome <something>, or a select few players dominating because of the huge gap caused by the item. (Not saying it is in this case, but something to keep in mind.
So... instead of replanting the 10-20 crops that you ever actually need to harvest at any time (giant automatic farms may look cool, but you never need that much food at once. A simple 5x5 plot with a Water block in the center more than suffices for a single player) you simply:
Find and Kill a Pig
Get 10 levels of XP
Find a Village (could not be one for miles)
Find a Butcher that is trading for Porkchops (If not found manage the village and trade for other stuff with him until you get one to spawn that is)
Get an Enchanting Table and enough Bookshelves (I think... 2 for a level 10 Enchantment?)
Enchant the Porkchop
Trade the Porkchop to the Butcher
Lure the Pigman however far back to your base, defending him all the way there (like I said, your base could be miles away)
Build an enclosure around the farm, locking him in
Build the Mob Chest
Fill Mob Chest with Seeds
Then harvest everything, putting you RIGHT next to the place you need to replant anyways
That... doesn't really seem like a good idea when you can just make a farm that fits your needs and take 15 seconds out of your bi-weekly harvest to replant.
