I think its actually ok to talk about the mob anyway, these are good idea’s master has listed that could be a good solution to it.
I get the part about people slamming the idea of it to hunt raiders, though moral, it would be completely bias and make being a pirate on the pirate server very unfair.
I am also sure @flea that the build/staff team, can place spawn points for the new mobs, as they’re going to make or update (I don’t know what to call it or how) the ocean to add the fish, dolphins, water volcanoes, seaweed etc. Though I can see your point as the mesa I live on didn’t become the gold mine of my dreams over night *sigh*, as only the small speck of mesa on the map (which I don’t know if it is full of stuff) is most likely full of gold, and no one has exploited it yet (unintentionally begins the gold rush).
1. I think deactivating the mob will be largely detrimental to the authenticity of the server as a whole, if there was a problem, a cap could be instead placed on it, or a periodic ‘extinction’ of them, much like with the skelly horses.
2. That is an interesting mob to bring up, only thing is that a minority of the server could possibly exploit it for their own gain, but I can see your reasoning behind it.
3. I know Godsdead said we needed an oceanic monster, maybe this could be that mob, but I feel that it may need to be edited slightly as I wouldn’t really like to see shoals upon shoals of manta rays following me in the water, just because I didn’t get 40 winks.
4. I’ve covered, and I think it is most likely not something that would be implemented.
