Well, that's a mod I'll have to avoid. Creative is dumb.

It's not a mod, it's a feature.

Hope to hell it's optional then. I'd hate to see SMP go down the drain even more.

If you read, it is.

Any other game modes? Other than survival and creative?

Nice! Can't wait

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE let us play on Normal and Hard modes with creepers disabled.

I want to fight mobs and have an adventure, I just don't want to have to worry about cleaning or repairing buildings.

Awesome

Herp derp lets take Minecraft Beta which I have spent months of my life on and force all of its multiplayer servers to regress into the old Creative Mode.

Of course it is optional, read the post and apply common sense

i hope the creative mode includes something similar to too many items. i find it fun to build all sorts of crazy buildings and contraptions. and i think he is referring to a mode in beta 1.8 as a creative mode not minecraft classic (creative)

Since 1.8 is still a significant time away, we’re going to have to stop being as secretive about it as we have. We’ll provide information about it as we go, but we’ll keep actual details secret. So, for example, we could say “added two new colors” without saying which ones, or “testing experience and leveling to see if it’s fun” without giving details on exactly how it works.

The update is pretty big, and will change a lot of how Minecraft is played, focusing on making exploration and combat much more rewarding, and bringing in a bigger sense of adventure to the game.

Already implemented are new complex terrain features, at least one new mob, some interesting new combat mechanics, a new lighting engine, and some experimental new gameplay ideas. To come is more interesting farming, bigger incentives to explore, and npc villages.

What the hell does he mean mod our way onto SMP from creative? Huh?

Mod as in Moderator, Not as in Modification. This needs changed in the news post too - its very misleading.

Why are they talking and releasing things about 18.? they should be focused on 1.7

It says that "players will be able to create mods." It clearly does not mean moderators.

OMG this is going to be beast, but the thing is we have to wait for 2 months for 1.8 as per the patterns of release before so we still have 2 or more months we have to wait. But so far it is going to be really cool. The only thing they will have to worry about is not to hype the public too much or else when it comes out, it has to be awesome, because everyone will be so judgemental towards the release.

There are already bukkit plugins that nerf creeper damage and desturction...

cool

yes this forum news post does. HOWEVER if you actually read notch's post, he means moderators, not the way it's misrepresented here.
