Well I have to go, think this better through next time.

He's obviously either an asshole or a troll. Just go find a better server, don't act like that admin could have been anyone.

In minecraft, no. If you were trying to make it look realistic, then I'm not entirely sure. The lone cliff looks way too man-made and the big one looks like it's about to collapse any second. I like the backside a bit, while it's not that smooth it looks more natural. My advice is not making it too steep at the back, connecting the big one too the small on top and adding smaller mountains as support on the sides.

If boredom counts as a challenge, this will be really hard. Awesome idea though, some of the solutions you wrote are really creative. Still, all the mining with my bare hands sadly makes me decline this.

Yes, 1.7.3 was the best update. Yet, while I've never been fond of hunger and such, I have learnt how to handle or ignore it as best as possible. The majority have, I don't think anyone cares if you won't. Those kinds of threads were everywhere when 1.8 came out, I think most of the community gets it by now. You don't like where Minecraft is going. The only difference between this and the old threads is that you've been hating it for longer than what's normal.

I don't think Minecraft needs anymore long-range weapons at all. If any had to be added, let it be crossbows, staffs or something like that, not guns. The reason bows aren't overpowered is because arrows spend some time reaching their target, making them possible to evade. Guns however, hits their target almost instantly, making them really easy to use. If bullets were slow, guns wouldn't be any different than bows. And if their accuracy would be 5 times as worse as bows, like some people requested, they would be extremely shitty and inefficient to use. It would only be possible to use in close-quarters, which would be a bad idea seeing as the reload time is way too long.

Solution to make guns useful: Wind. Bullets would curve slightly with the wind. The wind would change once every second. In order to see what direction the wind is going, you can craft a flag with sticks and wool. The flag would point in a similar manner to the compass. If it's raining or snowing the wind should be more aggressive than usual, requiring more skill. There should be 5 stages of wind, where 0 is no wind and 5 is a lot of wind.
The direction the wind goes is random, but the wind won't change with more than one stage every second. If the wind stage is 1 and the wind is going to your left, the bullet will curve 1 block to the left every 30 blocks it travels. If the stage is 5 it will go a whopping 5 blocks to your left every 30 blocks. The most logical solution when hunting your prey would be waiting until the stage is 0 or 1 before firing. However, if your target is moving towards you or you're trying to hit a fleeing target you would have to depend on your luck by shooting without checking your flag.

Instead of a musket, it should be more of a mosin-nagant in terms of accuracy and such. You should also be able to place a silencer and scope on it. (No, I'm not wanting to turn Minecraft into call of duty) You can enter scope mode by right clicking, and you'd shoot by left clicking. Silencers would remove the white flash (not the smoke) when shooting. Flags could also be placeable, so people can turn their guard-towers into sniper nests by placing down a flag.

While this would be cool, I'd rather have more melee weapons or different kinds of bows.

What? I mined for like 5 hours straight and only got 2 diamonds, 24 iron, and 37 coal!
Guess some worlds are better than others....

Wut... How the hell did you manage that? It's easy finding 20 stacks of coal and iron in that amount of time.

Snowy. My skyrim-ish ruins on top of a mountain looks extremely epic when it's snowing.
Started building in jungles recently, but I don't know how long they will be interesting.
