I always wanted infinite lava in minecraft, then when 1.9 pre 5 (I think) I was like "YESH!" but in 1.9 pre 6 they removed it. So im thinking they should bring it back! But, not as easy as before. It would need FIVE lava sorces flowing into it, one on each side and one on top. This would make lava and obsidian a renewable resorce.
I would like infinite lava. when I build stuff when I'm playing alone, I hate having to go through my mines just to bring it back and something happen when I place it. It gets a little old doing this all the time.
Well, lava is pretty valuable and valuable resources aren't supposed to be infinite. The only source of infinite lava is the Nether. I'm sure it's not a problem getting them in the Nether unless your not prepared, that is.
Brews fire resistance potion, crafts 23 buckets, dives in lava in nether. I think 1 bucket of lava can smelt as much as 32 coal or something. I use lava for smelting or self defense. When stupid creepers try to creep on me, I dump some lava on the floor as they stupidly run into it.

In multiplayer, when an admin saw me holding a bucket of lava, he kept following me with /vanish. I knew he was invisible because the door opened a few seconds after I closed it and all my chests were being opened and closed

When we think of this, we should also consider survival maps. It really sucks when you lose lava just because one mistake.
The OP's suggestions is almost exactly the same as what I was thinking of: surround a flowing block with four source blocks around it, plus a fifth one on the top. Except I was thinking of just any kind of lava above it.
And besides, if there's already "infinite" lava in the nether, why would anyone complain about this?
i want infinite lava sources like unlimited water sources becasue it gets really annoying when you run out of lava and you need to go get more from the caves or the nether, while having ulimited sources would provide a safer way to it.So we don't die with all our tools in the nether
Well I think people are over-thinking the whole infinite lava.
Blaming griefers isn't a good reason, because griefers grief any way they can.
Even if it did help griefers, they would need plenty of buckets first, and then find a lava source, and then stay alive and grief. If they could spawn their own buckets, they surely could spawn lava as well, so who cares?
Also calling lava a useful-and-should-be-rare resource is a bit of a stretch.
You only need 1 bucket of lava for a cobblestone generator.
Also, unlimited obsidian is not a problem either, its not like several portals are overpowered, think about how long it would take!. Also most open servers, the ones griefers like, don't allow you to place blocks on certain areas, so placing obsidian isn't a problem.
Using lava as a barrier wont be affected because drops can be burned in lava, so lava barriers are pretty useless compared to normal trenches.
Also, when you fight with lava, by placing it, you only need one bucket. You will only ever need two or three tops, which isn't a problem.
Lastly, lava used as a furnace item wont really be affected. It's not like people worry about losing the lava, its about the bucket. The lava itself is pretty useless, and what will limit you from using too much from the unlimited source is your iron. The whole game wont be ruined when you have used 63 iron and 21 blocks of unlimited lava to make enough glass for a glass dome. If you are that far in the game to want to make a glass dome, you shouldn't worry about finding lava.
(note: your eyes were probably looking at the 63 iron more than the 21 blocks of lava when I mentioned them, since 21 lava is a tiny pool)

You really hit the spot there! You pretty much cleared everything up.
Like what we said, Lava is very valuable.
That means he/she isn't a very good admin...
Give the amount of lava per chunk and that fact that minecraft maps are practically infinite, its essentially an infinite resource.
I can see a griefer make over 20 trips collecting a crap load of lava buckets

But seriously now, if you know where to look and you're lucky, you can get more lava then you'll ever need in one pool!
What's up? I'm the proud co-owner of a little ClassiCube server called Minebuild.
Click here to go to the thread for it!
Sometimes, you just need a little more cave.
Oh ya, my icon. Should I change it, and do people think I'm trolling just because of my pic?
and besides lava is everywhere
in the nether u can just make a "bridge" on a sea of lava and just run around and scoop 20 buckets and go back to your base.
