PARLIAMENT VOTE #13
An Act to add SilkSpawners to allow players to acquire mob spawners.


It's official. We've heard many requests for this, so here's the vote to add it to VC:

http://dev.bukkit.org/bukkit-plugins/silkspawners/

This would mean a silk touch enchanted tool could be used to mine a spawner and allow it to be picked up and placed. The chance to pick one up like this might be made to be less than 100%. If it turns out to be glitchy where every time one is placed a staff member has to set which mob it has to spawn, then we might have to alter how we do this.

Discuss.

You know, I appreciate the server not having a person surrounded by 20 spawners and 20k entities lagging everyone out :)

That's an excellent point which is why I voted no. I just wish that other people would understand this because most people have shitty computers so if this passes you can enjoy having five frames per second on VC every time you play.


Seriously, vote NO

I voted no because I can just imagine even more instances of fucking spawner grief. God.


Please consider:
-Convenience
-Grief
-Lag
-Love

Well, true. But, if we limit the chance to pick up to like, 5% ... then spawners will be incredibly rare and extremely valuable trading pieces.

Plus, if they're rare, I don't think we'll see many problems of grief.

I did this back on the FTB server, and when running it could spawn a few hundred entities, even with 4 auto-killers running at full blast. Small chances are still not zero, so larger villages would likely get many spawners in the same place quite quickly.

That's just my opinion though. Not that it really matters :)
