Give Rbos some time to respond. Don't be impatient. impatient people are annoying. and they usually don't get what they want.
Some people like to watch the world burn, I'm one of those people.

Hi,

No.

* Mob grinders make certain things so cheap as to be free, which means they can't be sold.
* Mob grinders lag the server and anyone nearby.
* They make it much too easy for new players, who can just press button, receive bacon (arrows, bonemeal, meat), or buy it for the aforementioned nearly-free prices.

I tried to nerf them in a way that let people still have the challenge of building effective mob grinders, but after spending dozens of hours tuning settings and observing them, I'm tired of it and just want to eliminate the issue entirely. This lets me spend time on things that don't make me want to gouge my eyes out.

'Mob Grinders' Are things that are usually towers (dark) that spawn mobs... these of which wonder into your trap and at the bottom of these towers there is a 'grinder' can be used as drowner, burner, cactus killer but the best is lava I think. Then the mobs die and plenty drops 4 you!
