  1. I have worked out a thing on SP (I might send you a World Download if you are interested. It was more for the aesthetics rather than the functionality). It doesn't get them down to 1 HP, but within a few. You can sort of 1-hit-kill them with a diamond sword if you let them finish burning. Basically, it's a lava funnel which the golems fall through, therefore gaining lava damage and extra fire damage. I was wondering is you were thinking of a single kill-bay centred in the middle of the cells, or four different kill-bays under each four cells.
    Sorry to keep pestering you about it though, it's just my first big community project :DEDIT: Oh yeah, Here's an Imgur album of my design screenies: http://imgur.com/a/q25kD

    Second Post (Put into first, obviously):

    Sorry for the double post, But the Iron Farm was been yet AGAIN greifed.
    Would it be safer to take it down and wait for the new one to be built in Jan, leave it alone, or keep forever repairing it? :confused:
    Also, I have got some extra carts for the rail stop nearest to /wild north spawn. I have named these called Cuto Carts.

  2. For now, just grab staff everytime you see it griefed. Keep getting those players banned =.= by now, it's either the ones who really think they can get away with griefing, or new players who love to grief and don't care about "do not grief" signs. Either way--griefing is intentional, and we don't need those players on emc =.=

  3. The Iron Farm has been like this for ages ever since it was built it had griefing problems and i dont think the griefing will stop until there is pretty much nothing left and thats pretty sad imo

  6. Thank you all for taking care of Pep's iron farm!

    Cuto, I'm sending you screenshots in a convo. What you've got there is very close to what I was thinking. My screenie's are from Finch's design. The modifications to the center for the kill bay are only in my head at this time. I need to get onto single player and try to work that out (and then have differences on EMC screw me all up lol).

    All seems to be in good working order now. One was in overdrive and was spawning golems whilst I was fixing it up :)

  8. And the iron golems are spawning amazingly, we both did an excellent job :D
  9. The /nether has been griefed. I reported it. Mainly the walkway, but there are few things in the safe room under the main mob floor, and the safe room on the mob floor.

  10. And make sure you're on the build list please. It makes grief reporting a lot easier and no one innocent will get hurt.

  16. My caboose is good Fire tyvm; it's my back that's killing me. Threw it out a few weeks ago. Still healing.

    Peps, everything is fixed I think. Thank rdmaster, jhkt01, and me for materials, and crazy_x_gamer for running me out 2 buttons. I will freely admit I started to hurt too much when I got topside to the doors, and I half-@$$ed it. I'm taking a pain pill and laying back down. I'm better, but I really can't sit yet. Hurts like blazes now.
  17. Guess what?
    Another greifing at the iron farm!
    The middle and back cells where damaged, I got Alex in and he couldn't find anything on the logs unfortunately.
    I've fixed the middle, kill-zone and back.

    I'm going to start to record griefings on a chart on Excel. This way I can see the increase/decrease of griefings. It will be done weekly, Eg- Week 1 - 3 griefs, Week 2 - 4 griefs, but in a graph format. I shall share the findings once I have sufficient data.
    However, to make this work, I will need to be notified of all griefings, via in-game /msg or PMs on the forums.
    Thanks!

  18. Heh, i was actually going to suggest that someone guard the area like this, but having never visted the area myself, i thought that would've been waaay over the bounds of fairness =P thanks for volunteering, lol.

    Btw, if Alex can't find anything, try another mod. There is no such thing as blocks that just disappear.

  19. I have just cleaned up the area around the iron farm.
    The floor is all stone now, there are crafting and smelting areas, beds, a proper snow farm (both in one building) and the kill zone has been given an extra chest and the blocks are all stone bricks now :)

  20. Hey khix, does the iron farm fall under the "Grinders" section?
    Also, Cuto, don't forget to add yourself to a list of fixers in the OP so you aren't banned for fixing =P
