Everyone hates lapis. Even if you're into dyeing armor, eventually you get way too much. I have a simple solution that does not involve silly and unnecessary bluestone wires or something: Make lapis more rare. Like really rare. Maybe only one in a vein, and the veins are 1/2 as common as diamond. Lapis would then be a valued resource, instead of something you never mine up.
I'm confused. What is the problem with Lapis? I love it and use it in a lot of builds. I make swimming pools lined with it, underwater houses out of it, and tons of other stuff. I've never used it for dying armor, because I play SP or on me and my friend's server. It looks really good. While I wouldn't mind it having another use or two, I don't want it to be rare. Lapis is awesome.

I see what you mean by lapis being not useful except for aesthetic value. However, I don't think just making it rarer will solve much. Maybe add some things it could be used for in recipes?

Making it rarer isn't going to increase the value. All it would do is make the people who DO like/love it suffer trying to find it (suffer is a strong word, but I see no other words that fit)
What Lapis needs is a new use that's practical (To an extant) To increase its worth.

Wrong. I don't hate lapis. MCGamer doesn't hate lapis. Loads of people who play Minecraft don't hate lapis.
No support.
I LOVE lapis, it looks so cool in texture packs
