I strongly disagree. I think this is the WORST thing ever to happen to Minecraft, including clay blocks. Most servers are going down, because people don't donate to servers without expecting something in return. As for cosmetic stuff, most people don't give a darn about that.

I only wonder.. Why? Why would Mojang make this negative move against the community? If you actually think they care about what is "fair" then you're kidding yourself. If you don't like what a server is doing in terms of selling stuff, don't play. Eventually, that server will survive or die by the will of the players.

Anyway, the server I play on is small scale enough that this won't affect me. The community is tight-knit enough that Mojang won't even notice.

One word: Realms

Read between the lines. They are not killing servers, but surely limiting their ability to make revenue (which translates into programming, new mini games, bandwidth) will make realms more desirable. If you can't beat your competition in a fair race, kick them in the kneecap before the race starts.

I don't really have any dog in the race. Either way works, but I do feel it will limit future features and also even if it is the correct thing to do, it seems like a bad PR move. Without the industry sprung up through servers/youtubers/modders I think minecraft would still be successful, but nowhere near as successful as it s today. I have personally got 6 people to buy minecraft for the multiplayer experiences on a few different servers.

Well I got this figured out. For some reason I was using stone pressure plates. Wooden ones will trigger, even with towny.

So, basically you have a wooden pressure plate hooked to a repeater. The repeater goes into a block, on top of this is a sticky piston (with block on it) which pushes mobs downward as they step on the pressure plate. Kind of convoluted, but it works pretty well once set up.

Thanks for the help and suggestions!

Hello,
I am trying to come up with a wither skeleton grinder/farm in the nether. I play on a server with bukkit, but it is close to vanilla. I have a skeleton spawner in the nether. This makes wither skeletons and plain skeletons once in a while. Well... I cant figure any good way to collect the skeles, and give them damage to allow easy kills.

One last note, the server uses towny and will not activate pressure plates when mobs step on them, so moving them by pistons either has to be a manual job or on a timer circuit.

All I see online are ones using mods, or people basically terraforming the nether into large flat zones for naturally spawing mobs. These don't do me any good as I have a spawner. Also, I tried sweeping the skeles away with lava, but they do not flow with it, simply jump upwards in place.

I <3 this.

Very good!

Great work, any updates?

Thank you for this very nice mod! Sometimes the little things make the biggest difference!

Thanks, this is a very good texture pack. I just wish the windows didnt have bars... I prefer clear ones myself. I love this TP but am not going to use it. I just cant get over windows with bars. It's just a personal preference thing, but it really is a great TP.

ok i am a noob but i will try my best thanks for the help!

Is there a way to disable animated textures? They bug me. Thank you.

very nice the fungi one is best. It would be really cool to come upon this while mining. I also really like the savanah and blossom one.

Ammar, this is a really fun puzzle pack! Thanks for creating it, its been really enjoyable so far.

I'll try more light it worked prior to 1.5 though.

Hey I just wondered if anyone is having problems with coco beans after the update? The pods will not mature on jungle logs and just pop off before maturity.

Also, I have had problems with wheat not planting and "popping" out of the ground also.

I like guns IRL but not in minecraft. If you want guns there are mods that allow that.
