Iron golem greifer defence >:D

[mattyr2d2]

I think that it would be awesome if iron golems could guard a 11x11 area by beating up greifers if they break a block, plus golems will be indestructible

[SoulKnightGT]

They're more as a -urm..- pet. They actually don't do anything besides look cool

[Duinis]

One, that'd be really hard to program
Two, player killing is not allowed,
Three, what if it was your friend that was trying to break a block for a good reason,
Four....I'd like to see some particular people get beaten up by a golem. XP

One: Can't say anything
Two: griefing is againist the rules so it should be legal to kill people.
Three: It will be like ps, you do /golem allow <friend's name>
Four: We all want to see them beaten up by a golem

[mattyr2d2]

Could golems be paired with PS stones?

[Boshiwarrior]

Iron Golems are already very strong. I only can defeat them in Singeplayer if I made a hole and get them in there!

[Fadmad]

Hmmm, it would be fun to build a iron golem vs player arena, and win prizes if you defeat the golem. Sadly, golems don't attack people even if the attack them!

Two: That's like saying (In real life) murder is illegal, so you should steal from murders. What? Its like... He did a bad thing, so imma make it more bad by doing a bad thing to your bad thing.

Three: This could cause massive arguements. What happens if it is exploited, someone says "Come help me build!", releases a golem from behind a piston door, and kills everyone and steals their stuff. Basically, all this would do is cause more work for mods, more anger in the server, and less fun over all.

[ViperZeroOne]

One:  The programming in this would be virtually impossible server-side.

Two:  Don't need a two, it's all summed up in one.

[atdfbttl15]

Impossible is nothing

[Xeadin]

No. Not going to happen. We have a rule on killing other players.

And besides that, the coding required to do something like this would be phenomenal. We already have issues server-side and we are not willing to clutter up the server even further with unnecessary code. It will require an entire plugin just to do this, because there is nothing that we can do to code iron golems to do this, since their code is reflected by the game itself and therefore directly influences their behavior-- NOT by the server.

And I agree. This would not make things any simpler-- it will, rather, do the complete opposite.
