Fixed that for you

The only time I dirt-blocked Leiah was in Leiah's suburban home, and I removed the stuff afterwards. I try to clean up my minor pranks afterwards.

However, I did see that the furnace room right next to the 0,0 portal had dirt on the doors. I assumed that was some intentional anti-zombie-noise security measure and left it alone. That wasn't me.

I put the dirt on the furnace room doors, and for several reasons:
1) It seemed to serve no use, what with Suburbia a few blocks away, no signs that listed ownership, and nothing that really allowed it to be anyone's home.
2) It was completely unlit, making it a spawning haven for mobs.
3) It had wooden doors, meaning that zombies could easily break them down for other mobs.
4) I had no torches on me at the time, and got sidetracked afterwards.

EDIT: I also did it a few days ago, which highlights the sheer disuse it sees.
EDIT2: To clarify, I didn't do it once then again, I did it the once and it went undiscovered until now.

ZOMBIES

CANNOT

BREAK

DOWN

DOORS.


The server does not run on hard difficulty. Zombies only break down doors in hard and hardcore difficulties.

Yeah but they sound really scary Mel...
REALLY SCARY!!!!

They are bloody loud though.

Oh yeah, I know that.

I'm just tired of people saying that the zombies can break the damn doors down.

Why aren't we on hard difficulty, it would be so much cooler

Because people would die lots more and not everyone would like it?

I don't like starving to death. I'm anorexic enough as it is in-game, let's not make food a pure necessity by going to hardmode.

Well I like to stay skinny to please my Warthog

Did not know and subsequently noted.

In that case, it was to stop the racket they would've caused.

In that case I approve.

Als, shrike, what's the purpose of the golems if they can't be used to take down creepers, as your guild's name suggests

Iron golems don't take on creepers because they might blow and destroy the city they're sworn to protect, they take out other mobs, while the snow golems shoot the creepers ^^
oh yes, one on it's own does nothing, but 6 of them in a position that the creeper won't blow can certainly hurt it.

Snow Golems don't attack Creepers either IIRC.

Unless they changed that recently.

Just hyperbreed cats and place them all over the place. Make it such that cats are the rats of suburbia.

That'll keep Creepers at bay.

Chickens are already the rats of Suburbia.

Don't snow golems attack creepers? If not, well, they focus on zombies, skeletons and spiders, us lot focus on creepers ^^

I miss all of you guys too...

But that's NightWatch's job
EDIT: Miss you too, BloodHorror

Well, I have started recruiting members for the elite hand-picked squad of creeper hunters and protectors, knights standing ever vigilant over the noble suburbs, guarding land and sea against the arch enemy of good people everywhere. Hopefully this specialist group will be fully operation in roughly 4 days.
If you want to help, donate iron, diamond, obsidian and glowstone to either me, N0t_U or Avatar720.

Like a neighborhood watch?

I hear there’s this guy down in Florida whom has recently become available to act as captain.

Just don’t use a skin that has a hoody…

Kind of, but we kill gak instead of walking around phoning the police when they come across stuff. We're more like the army

Sounds more like an anti-creeper vigilante group to me.

So long as players don't get killed...

Don't hate the players.

We don't hate the common- erm, peas- um, regular players...
and yes, it's more a vigilante group, but we don't do anything illegal!

much

If you have a creeper problem i feel bad for you son. I've got 99 problems but explosions ain't one...
