    We are planning to reset the mining world and The End on May 11 (at any time on that day, Pacific Daylight Time). Please make sure anything valuable that you have placed in those worlds is removed by that date.

    In addition, we are considering resetting the Nether on that date. Please make comments regarding the change on this thread.

    All three worlds sound good to me for a reset.

    Please don't reset the nether due to many peoples' pigman farms.
    I personally put more time and slavework into my pigman farm than I did my overworld house! :D If a nether reset is absolutely going to happen, I suppose we could all collect our farming machines.

    Meh, I need to redesign my pigman farm anyway, I made it based on the idea that magnum torches have a 64 block radius, which was completely misguided >.< they have a 128 block radius.

    If you do end up resetting the nether I would have no issue, I would just need a day or two's notice so I can go pick up my stuff, shouldn't take longer than 15-30 mins (most of that time will just be me finding my magnum torches)

    Also, if you do regen the nether, would it be possible to try it without BoP enabled (on that world) on the test server first, to see if that fixes the wither skele issue?

    nether restart is not necessary, end and deep dark restart is necessary

    If you're going to restart a few of the alternate dimensions, might as well redo them all, more stuff across the board to mine. No reason anyone should have anything invested in any alternate dimension other than some farm tech that can be ripped up and put back in after the reset with minimal muss and fuss. Nether restart might actually be advantageous if they can figure out and fix the wither skel spawning issue in test.

    The reset is happening because the RAM disk is running out of disk space.

    I'd prefer nether reset. And if possible, Nolan's Idea should be tested. ^-^

    Are End resets likely to happen often? I was just about to start construction on a major build there...

    A large enderman themed thaumcraft market place, with peripheral aesthetic shops like McDonalds/Taco Bell/Pizza Hut/ect. (seems a lot sillier when I type it out like that... lol)

    Personally I think that we should reset the end and worldguard the entire thing. There is no reason to wreck it, infact it makes it more of a pain when you are trying to farm endermen

    To be honest with the powerful weapons that you can obtain on Alice there is no need for farms or noob roofs.
