I made this suggestion, and the options were add now. Wait till 1.5 when the nether ore is added in then implement this, and no. The option wait till 1.5 won. Considering 1.5 is coming out very soon with new nether ores, I thought I'd repost this.

So I was thinking it would be nice to get to you wilderness base faster. But there's a hard part, lack of food and distance to you base makes it very difficult. So I was thinking increase only the nether border where. The wild is. Also in 1.5 there is a new ore being added into the nether. So we could wait till then and heave the new ore coming into play aswell. So let's break it down
Pros
Faster way into your wild base.
Easier transportation
Depending when/if accepted the new nether ore will be added in
Fresh nether forts and other nether stuff

Cons
If there's a nether portal in your base someone can easily find it.
More lovely coding for Intelli

Leave your opinions. I know this will be a tough one to get accpeted so let's hear both sides of the groups! Vote!

I don't think this is appropriate in the 'Bans' section.

Edit: Beat me to it Oneman.

In principle I like the suggestion but if you want to properly introduce nether quartz you'll need a larger area of nether than the wilderness can produce.

The wilderness is 10k*2k, the resulting nether will be 1250*250. On top of that, the part that is by the current border has already been generated and will not contain nether quartz.

Plus what you (BSG) said in a different thread, an area that size would be mined out completely in less than a week.

I voted yes. This seems like the only practical way to introduce quartz. I already see a problem though. This expansion would only be 250 blocks deep if it starts and ends where it would correctly correspond to the overworld wilderness border. Imagine that chaos if it's full pvp like the rest of the nether...

My solution to this: expand the nether wilderness (I like to call it "Netherness") back much further, by about 500-1000 blocks. Then, make it like the wilderness, but opposite! Pvp is off, you take half damage but portals still don't work.

Yeah that occurred to me, to just make nether pvp the total opposite of nether pvp. So in wilderness-nether pvp is off. That would be very helpful considering how many people are going to be mining there at once.

So getting to the place where the most valuable things in the game are, is nearly as easy as can be?No. It's all supposed to be hard, the new ores will be rare, getting them is like emeralds, it needs to be difficult and hard
