@The3xpertGamer You may notice that even if you are nice to them, zombies will still kill you. They do not have anything to live for, because they are already dead. So just kill them too!

So kill zombies? ... and save them?

@Naidae I'll take a look at this ,but from what I'm seeing, gnembon is saying that the cross-shape design is only spitting out 19k guardians per hour, with a 25% loss rate, of that. I built his design to the letter and we're only getting MAYBE 100 spawns an hour... MAYBE, mostly likely, half of that.

I guess we can consider this issue "fixed" xP?

@DoppyRex Skelly Grinders are prob best next farm

Blazes drop more xp per mob, so I would argue they would be a better xp source than skeletons.

@ShadowHunter7_ On the forum it said that this guy changed his view distance to nine chunks and it worked so i do not know if its the same as render distance

Your view distance should not change mob spawning on servers, only in single player.

@Naidae

Player skin?

Not sure what counts as historically significant. Here is a very rough brain dump.

Wolf Pack faction formed

JarJar_ raids and drama

jarJar_ banned and Wolf Pack resurgance

RedArmy formed

Rumors of 1.9 reset chill server activity and New forum increases forum activity dramatically

1.9 Server is released. Alexa and I win the dragon egg. 1.8 server goes inactive, and is eventually retired.

Bedrock breaking is now against the rules :_

Harvest formed

Red Army becomes disorganized and Team Eye is formed.

Harvest and Team Eye raid each other.

Emerald to diamond trade goes to some changes and is removed.

1.11 release and shulker box trade goes wild due to the existance of shulker spawners from craftycrates.

1.11 Reset caused by shulker spawners. No op spawn trades. Team Eye beats Towel gang in competition for Dragon Egg.

Pigmen / Wither Skeleton Farms are difficult. Guardian and Enderman farms work just fine:

If you are having issues, it's your design / your understanding of spawn mechanics. In general spawner-less grinders are more difficult / time consuming to make.

Making a Grinder from a spawner is in general easier. Blazes give the most xp per mob. Cave spider spawners are the most plentiful. Zombie is arguably the easiest/quickest.

All grinders present their own unique challenges and there is a big difference between a bad and good design.

Wow.

If you put portals ~128 blocks away from your base in the overworld any portals in the nether should link to one of those, instead of making a new one. IDK that I'd actually recommend doing that though.
