Org Minecraft Server

Would anybody know if name tags can be acquired on this server? As it stands they can only be found in dungeons, but I'm not sure if dungeon chest contents are generated with the world, or only when you open them. If the former, I'd imagine we're out of luck.

As of now, no they cannot. As you pointed out, they can only be obtained from dungeon chests and all dungeon chests in the world already exist with their contents already selected by a previous version of Minecraft. In order to add name tags we would need to make the world larger, regenerate parts of the world, or get a custom crafting recipe to make them craftable.

Would it be possible, perhaps, to get a custom crafting plugin whereby 1 saddle = 1 name tag? Considering they're both intended to be primarily found in dungeons it shouldn't skew the balance too much.

Found some horses... now to go get my saddles.

Yes, but I had another idea this morning. I could install a multiworld plugin to enable us to travel between Minecraft 'worlds.' I could then create a second normal world that is smaller, perhaps with a radius of 2000. That world would be generated under current Minecraft standards, and thus everything could be found there, including name tags. The world would ONLY be for mining/obtaining resources, not for building structures. Every time the game introduced new items that could not be found in our main world, I would delete and recreate the 'Mineworld' so that the new items were available there.

That would certainly take care of one of the most annoying parts of updates.

Also mean we would have an area we wouldn't worry about strip mining and shearing sheep errr you know what I mean.

Yep. An entire world to completely exploit without any concerns or regrets. The only caveat would be that since it would exist to be wiped and reset, nothing should be constructed there that anyone cares about losing. I'd recommend some kind of central mining/living structure just for convenience, but nothing so elaborate that it couldn't be rebuilt in an hour after a wipe.

Yeah, mining camps with creeper defences. At least creepers aren't destroying terrain in our world... one killed me the other night though :[
