Scratch

1.4.4 is out  . Now to wait for bukkit and all the mods...

Yeah. I remember it, it's definitely one of the best.

Age <> intelligence

Because Scratch is a fairly tightly-knit intelligent society, whereas the MC forums are 'well I have Minecraft [that makes up probably 80% of the population that has computers and internet].  Signing up.'  Although that is one of the worst ideas I've seen on the MC forums (I don't check them often).

If you look up you'll see a suggestion for unbreakable emerald tools, not everything that comes out of Scratch is amazing.

If you properly read that suggestion, you will realize that it is suggesting that the damage/protection go down as the damage to the item goes up.  I think this is a legitimate suggestion.  Please try not to deliberately call someone's suggestion "not amazing".

Seriously, go see the "blood emerald" factory by the Bteam, you can get stacks of emerald blocks in hours, just an hour of work is enough to set you up for 100-300 pickaxes.

They're not made for tools, they're made to be useless, that's all currency is, if villagers didn't trade them they'd be as useless as slimeballs before 1.7, but call them currency and people will use them.

Which is why I use them as currency on my server.    (my non-roleplay server)

Emeralds were meant to be really rare, but villagers are just easily abusable, which just makes iConomy etc. more popular because overall they're actual economy plugins that have been thought out.

imagine if in real life we replaced coins with leaves?

although it should be fine having them as a currency, as long as you don't get it to large and you encourage people not to farm it.

what if we replaced dollar bills with lava?

Imo, emeralds are a good concept, just need some kinks worked out. 

I agree with that, even just turning off villager trading but not villagers would help immensely.

Okay, how about a new ore.

And sheesh, I was just pointing out something I thought might be cool.  I wasn't planning it to be ADDED or anything...

bugfixes i think
