The people in the past who convinced themselves to do unspeakable things were no less human than you or I. They made their decisions; the only thing that prevents history from repeating itself is making different ones.

I'm okay with that, it means that it's easier to have a big bat hutch that isn't a deathtrap.

Since the release of the Pretty Scary Update we’ve been super-busy trying to fix as many reported issues as possible. We’ve now reached the point where we’ve fixed so many that we spend more and more time wondering “haven’t we fixed that already?” and “I wonder if this will break anything else…” In other words, it’s time to look forward to a new official update!
The changes since 1.4.2 is:
Over 100 issues fixed, full list here: 1.4.3 issue list Noteable: The missing song “where are we now” is now available, but called “wait”
Noteable: Random falling damage due to lag fixed
Noteable: Falling damage when riding minecarts fixed
Noteable: Enchanted book exploit fixed
Noteable: Slimes have correct collision box
Noteable: Signs no longer lose their text client-side
If nothing serious happens, we intend to release 1.4.3 next Wednesday.
I'm certainly looking forward to the fall damage being fixed
I wonder what this enchanted book exploit is? Thank you at last Mojang for fixing the fall damage and the damage from minecarts and the text on signs. Finally.

It's actually somewhat amusing:
Recently on Civcraft, it was reported that a group of players had been killing people with books. To be more specific, the book and quills were being used to kill players in protection 4 diamond armor in 1 or 2 hits; the victims were also set on fire. Needless to say, the players with books of Sharpness 32767 were immediately banned for obvious cheating.
Very quickly, we discovered that the cheaters had simply input a pattern of text into books and upon signing them, the books had absurd enchantments.

On the server I play on I haz the same, but then in sword form Hey guys, I just killed my 20th Blaze. Who wants the loot, it's just 2 and half stacks of it..
Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

Sadly, for me tekkit has been running smoother than minecraft. I'll probably gget back vanilla more often once I've gotten a new processor.

I might use something like that, it's neat. But not exactly like it.

Use stuff like stone brick to build a wall and to break up the blandness use vines...works for me! (also build an overhang at the top of the wall to stop other players getting in)

Simon! you must go to pig island and bring lots of pigs there!
I still blame Herobrine.
Currently attempting to put together a homebrew non-canon Space Marine chapter. If I can be bothered to getting around to painting the models and putting the things together of course...
It's still a good explanation for anything weird in Minecraft.
