    1. I admit defeat on this point.
    2. The terrain thread DOES use outdated information, for example, the beaches section is flat out false, I can say that I have seen more beaches that match his description of Pre-1.8 beaches than the supposed "Current" beaches.
    3. "You people have failed to put any argument other than 'Its Mojangs Game'" Your side has not put any argument other than "They arent doing what WE want them to do!"
    4. The Nether, added in the last Halloween update, seems pretty Halloween-ish to me. (If you try to say that it is not Halloween related, then I could say the same for witches.)
    5. Your Santa example, it would fit a Christmas update, but your part about it dropping diamonds would make it to OP.
    6. If your going to compare me to a child, then your side is just like a child who is throwing a temper tantrum because he didn't get any ice-cream.
    7. In your original post you said they should go, contradiction much?
    8. I don't like Notch, "Cult of Notchers" Card invalid. Also, I'm not a cultist sociopath because I'm not screaming at the top of my lungs because I'm not getting what I want for new features in a FINISHED GAME!
    9. Wait, own supporters are calling inaccurate You mean that guy who said the Dinnerbones post was legit and that I had made a flaw in my post. You mean the flaw that only rendered a minor remark invalid. How about trying to detract on something other than one flaw that rendered a minor point moot. You also act like a load of people are saying my post had more holes than swiss cheese.

    @ChaosGarden
    I admit defeat, you have bested me in debate.

    posted a message on New fresh server! [1.3.1][HARDCORE PVP][FACTIONS][EVENTS!] Reaper's Reach
    I'm currently posting this as a warning to any people who are considering this server as a possible home for their clan. I will warn you right now turn away from this server imedtiately and do not look back. If you need any more reasons beyond me saying it right now i'll post them here.

    Reason #1: Our faction became the top reigning faction on the server within a week. We had been mining like crazy and building our asses off. At the end of that week our spoils were 12 stacks of diamonds all mined through the use of fortune and hours upon hours of mining. We then went on to challenge any other faction on the server, which none of them would fight us. All we did was sit in our base with our massive amounts of wealth waiting for someone to challenge us but no, it was by far the most boring server we had ever been on.

    Reason #2: The power system on this server is horrible imbalanced, you only lose 2 power for killing someone in an opposing faction whereas other servers make them lost 3-4 power upon a pvp death. We had entered an enemies base and killed them at least 20 times, and we still could not claim their land why? Because this server is terrible imbalanced. When we told the administrator about it he claimed that we should just TNT cannon them, and that would be his reason for any problem we gave him. So now knowing that there is essentially no way to kill a faction to the point that you can claim their land I don't know why anyone who plays on factions servers would ever want to play here.

    Reason #3: The administrators support the best faction on the server Impervious, the administrators give them anything they want simply because they donate to the server, The administrators might as well given them creative mode for how many perks the donators on this server gets, Impervious's base was essentially unreachable because the administrators allowed them to build it 20,000 blocks away from the spawn even though normal players can only walk to the maximum world size of 10,000.

    Overall: This server is so terrible imbalanced that there is literally almost zero to no combat occuring anywhere, the only thing people ever do is try and TNT cannon your base. The adiministrators might as well un-install the factions pluggin because it might as well be completely useless. This isn't a factions and pvp server. It's a TNT cannon random **** all over the play because people are to scared to fight anybody on this server.

    You guys need to change the power system because right now its terribly unbalanced. Killing anyone only makes a faction lose 1 power, which means we'd need to kill people 50 TIMES to get an enemy faction low enough to claim their land. Thats just plain stupid, and TNT cannons are not the solution to this problem. Your prime concern on a factions server shouldnt be TNT cannons it should be dying enough times to drain your power low enough for people to be able to claim you, and right now thats not even a concern. I feel like the server is literally at a standstill, because we cant even make a dent into enemy factions because 1: killing them doesnt do **** against there power and 2: TNT cannons wont let your raid a whole base. Bottom line the power system needs a SERIOUS change for this server to ever become balanced.

    posted a message on I fear everything after 1.2.5 will be a slow spiral into disapointment
    Does anyone else feel like Jeb is making the wrong choices in what to add to minecraft lately? I feel as though hes become scaterbrained and feels like he has to add new content every time he updates. I mean sure Jungle temples, Pyramids, and Desert villages are nice, but do they cover up the Gigantic holes and glitches in 1.3.1? I feel like his priorities have become very strayed from what minecraft actually needs right now. The distance between 1.2.5 and 1.3.1 was 5 months. The longest time between any two patches ever in minecraft, and for me 1.3.1 was a massive disapointment, and I'm not here to rant about that. I'm here to ask, does anyone else feel that Jeb really should try and focus more on streamlining the game and not adding content band-aids to try and cover the massive bug wounds in it?

    posted a message on So...no more efficiency V?
    Quote from oCrapaCreeper

    I've only seen it happen to gold because of its high enchantment rates.

    Same thing happens with Sharpness V on a diamond sword.


    I know but i think thats like nerfing enchanted tools that are made to make things easier, i mean the difference between efficiency 4 and 5 (in SSP) is that i can walk at full speed (Using the block distance quick mining ability) with an efficiency 5 pickaxe and just go through rows of stone like butta, whereas with efficiency 4 i cannot do that.

    Could this be any closer?

    posted a message on Do you think 1.3 is taking to long to come out?
    personally from what I've seen Jeb adding i think hes gotten a bit scatterbrained as to whats actually needed for minecraft right now. Instead of focusing solely on Merging SMP and SSP Smoothly, and working out a working Mod API. Hes spending time coding jungle ruins and desert tombs, which seem difficult but trust me, simply adding those to the generation code is much easier then what he should actually be focusing on. So in my eyes, yes 1.3 is taking to long, but personally i think its because of the difficulty and lack of enthusiasm for merging SMP and SSP, and making the Mod API. It's probably a little bit of both. Jeb works hard, he just works on things that should really take a backseat to things that needed to be added sooner then later.

    posted a message on [CTM][Collection] Vechs' SUPER HOSTILE Series (Spellbound Caves II out now!)
    Quote from samuri51

    I Understand that the point of it is to make much more tension in the map, but i just feel like with lethamyr you took a step back on your devious ways and tried to make it simply Hardcore Vanilla with some dungeons, and i mean it was an easy map which wasn't a problem for me. I'm just concerned about future maps because of the enjoyment I get out of Areas, im worried about that in fallen kingdom i wont be able to go into an area Light it all up and build a fantastic house in that area and show my domination over that area anymore. I feel like with this hardcore setting i have to just go to an area get the wool and not do anything else dangerous in there. And that might be what your going for I dont control your mind, but personally for me and many others with play styles like mine in ruins our creative spark in the map. I mean i could change it but i like to play with what you select for us. I personally just feel like having this Hardcore respawn difficulty on your maps crushes any hopes i have of building massive structures in areas.


    And Edit: I understand how the comunity rates these maps and they're right I'm simply talking about the time i spend in maps not doing the dungeons. I mean if there was a way i could turn hardcore on in a dungeon i wouldnt care but once im done that area i feel the the need to conquer it, and the hardcore mode obstructs that is what im saying. It's not just the dungeons the hardcore mode affects it affects how you play the whole game, you dont do super building projects with it on.
