I've stated many times that armor needs an overhaul. I mostly refuse to use it in SMP because it looks like crap and covers your custom skin. Allowing players to change it does create a problem where somebody can just use leather skinned diamond armor to trick players during PVP.
If the armor was to apply itself directly to the actual skin and not in a layer over the skin that would go a long way to making the armor look better.
Also the armor could use possibly have a portion of it that could be edited so we can have a crest but still be able to tell what is diamond, iron, leather
Changing your textures in any competitive game to get an advantage over players is cheating. People do it in FPS games where they make the player models stand out as bright colors. Cheating detection software is used in those cases but there is none, yet in mine-craft. Perhaps it would be a good idea to limit the use of transparency on multiplayer textures, the skins are already have limited transparencies so it should be possible to do for SMP players.
Having more diamonds = advantage
Finding hidden rooms = advantage
... is an interesting idea as well and it would be interesting to see the texture made.
There really is no reason to be apposed to this idea. I can understand not supporting it but to actually say "no"...
If it were added it would not change anything for those who don't want it. If they want sandstone like they have now, they mine sandstone and get sandstone. However if you want to build with the smooth/natural sandstone you'll have to cook it back to it's natural from.
One suggestion doesn't simply mean "Only one item/mob/block per thread." As long as there is one main focus, it's one suggestion.
"Things That Should Be Added To The Nether" would be a single focus.
"Random Crap I Think Would Be Awesome" would not be.
At least, that's how I've understood it. Otherwise, we'd have to lock down 99.999999% of Suggestions. :tongue.gif:
I have seen situations where people gripe against suggestions that were similar but not directly linked.
As for things in the nether. Two people could be trying to discuss weather in the nether while another two try to discuss new mobs, or ores. The next person could come along and not even be able to find the specific information because it's lost in 3 different conversations. I could see a nether ores, nether environment and nether mobs "mega-threads" but there is still issues
Redundant threads: Threads are not actually redundant if they are unique enough to warrant their own discussion. If you have the same idea for a suggestion but arrive at it a different way or with a different mechanic and try to discuss this on a pre-suggested page that is called thread hijacking... which I'm sure is frowned upon.
Adding suggestions to mega-threads does also feel like thread hijacking. "those are great ideas and all but stop everything and listen to my idea
Mega-threads also need constant editing of the front page to keep all information up-to-date. With multiple people running multiple lines of debate this becomes quite tedious for the OP and the majority of information is likely to be lost.
It always bothers me every time I see a suggestion and somebody posts telling them to use one of many mega threads. The problem is the rules clearly state that there should only be one suggestion per thread. This is because suggestions even if similar need to be focused on and if you have multiple suggestions then the topic gets split and turns into a fustercluck with multiple discussions overlapping
Suggestions Rules:
You are not allowed to flame suggestions, keep it mature You are not allowed to post more than one suggestion per thread
You are not allowed to post the same suggestion, use search before posting
User X posts a wolf suggestion
Moderator locks thread and tells them to go to mega thread.
User Y posts two similar but not linked suggestions
User Y gets flamed for posting more then one suggestion and moderator warns
Mega-threads are a good way to link users to various related threads but they seem un-fit and against the rules for actually discussing all the related suggestions.
Herobrine was faked, and the creators of the hoax even admitted to it being a hoax. That didn't stop gullible people from believe it and trolls from running with it. In an attempt to stop all the "hero brine is real" posts Notch added "removed herobrine" to the change log.
The minecraft moderators are also sick of dealing with it and that is clear in the general rules

There should be a tier added above diamonds and it will probably be "enchanted" weapons/tools
Also adding new arrow types doesn't actually count as adding more weapons. The Bow is significantly lacking in tiers so that can be done by arrows or bow types, possibly both.
Better bows = more power/range
Better arrows = more damage
You need to be able to craft a bowl of milk and place it somewhere then the cats will stop following you. I had a few but it was impossible to tame more because the cats following me would spook the ocelot .
It's definitely not a left hand holding sand. The block you are holding also is hidden when the hud is, so you cannot see the block and not the hud. The picture doesn't look like it has had dimensions altered to erase the hud either.
The left of the chest also doesn't look like it has a block sitting next to it or at the corner because you can still see the side of it.

That was a limitation of the piston mod. Will this limitation be in the official release?

I like the second version of the mock-up better then the first but this...

Huh, I could have sworn I was in the discussion forum, I guess I had to many windows open and got turned around

Then why even have iron doors in the game in the first place?

Better bows = more power/range
Better arrows = more damage
wooden arrow = 1 heart
flint arrow = 2 hearts
iron arrow = 3-4 hearts
