I can already feel the rage for people that farm gold. Earlier tonight we made a staff decision to disable zombie pigmen from spawning in portals.

But why GodsDead? I want to farm gold!

Because; you lazy greedy barnacle, you are effecting server performance, degrading PVP and damaging Gold Eco.

But I spent ages building a gold farm!

Tough, Stop being greedy. You have taken advantage of this far too long and im sure you have many supply rooms full of gold.

Why now?

I have been very lenient with farming items, I like people to play how they want, This was fine when we were a bit smaller and these gold farms were small, But people get greedy, so very greedy, disgustingly greedy, to the point where they have multiple absolutely gigantic gold farms.

What do people use gold farms for?

People farm gold so they can make golden-apples for PVP & Potions.

Hopefully I covered everything, Lets even out the playing field a bit more 🙂

Im going to add something to this, the reason they have been removed is for the good of the server, anyone bypassing this by building the equivalent in the nether will be dealt with.

Please, do not go into the nether and build something thats going to lag the server. I will delete it.

Thanks to my gold farm, I have made a grand total of 10 blocks of gold.

I would not have spent 11 HOURS building a gold farm for the sole purpose of lagging the server, and being lazy.

I spent too much of time constructing it to expect some kind output, there is absolutely NOTHING lazy about it.

Granted, there are people that do make large gold farms, but why punish the majority when the minority of the farmers actually were a problem?

@Rubihube Direct your rage towards the first post under the heading “But I spent ages building a gold farm!” That’s aimed at people like you that reply like you did. Congrats trying to belittle for calling out a spelling mistake, you the man.

I have noticed a very substantial decrease in lag today. If it is a direct result of a lack of overworld gold farms, I think disabling pigmen spawns was a great decision.

I think you should remove all unreasonably-large spawners because there’s really no need for them now and they look pretty ugly from the map.
