Recently they changed the endermite as I'm sure other people have noticed. Enderman will no longer be immediately hostile towards them, Breaking every single enderman XP farm :-) This has been a trend for a while of the players finding unique and creative ways of utilizing niche mob behaviors in their farms. My question is why? Why I get rid of it, I remember back in the automatic fishing farm days it was an arms race. We would find a way to make an automatic fishing farm, they would find a way to patch it :-) That one was a little bit more acceptable.. considering you could literally be AFK overnight and wake up with mending, Frost Walker, etc and so forth. And you could access these things at any stage of the game so whether it's your longtime world of 15 years or you literally just loaded in You could have these items.

... BUT WHAT THE POINT OF GETTING RID OF AN END GAME FARM! It's literally in the end.. You finished, with auto fishing farms I see how you're utilizing game mechanics to (very big air quotes here) exploit the system and get items. ... Isn't that what every Minecraft farm is? Should we get rid of flying machines since you're "exploiting the mechanics of the game"to make them fly over sugar cane fields and harvest them??? We're using game mechanics. Game mechanics that YOU gave us. To make life easier, to get items easier.

Again this was so acceptable with the automatic fishing farms, but enderman XP farms weren't automatic! They were really only good for getting you XP and ender pearls. Why the ****! Would you want to change this?

And Minecraft prides itself on its community building, I mean half the game is so inside baseball and relies on the fact that Minecraft is a cultural icon so knows everything anyway, But we communicate with each other on how best to make these farms, whole communities around automatic farms. And mojang's just like, "no :-)" Like??? It's an end game farm only accessible in the end game, Like I really don't get the stinginess? What are you even doing with ender pearls on a single player world after you beat the dragon? And we could talk about XP, brother there's a million different ways of getting XP, and a million more AFK versions. WHY WOULD YOU CHANGE THE ENDERMITE THE ONLY REASON IS BECAUSE YOU DON'T WANT ENDERMAN XP FARMS AND WHY WOULD YOU STIFLE COMMUNITY CREATIVITY LIKE THIS?
