I'd vote no - The reason I'm voting no is because pathways to different spawn points is crucial.
I have never seen Glowstone on this server, but quite frank I only have like 5 of it for my 'lamps' to my realm, which I had bought.

Bad idea is bad.

1) It will take 36 hours to collect all of the glowstone every time the nether is wiped. If you're not the kind of guy that prepared for this wipe, then I have no doubt you won't be the type to prepare for the next one. As such, the same people will continue to get the majority of all glowstone.

2) Glowstone is rare for a reason. It has no value if we reset the supply every month. perhaps you should make this thread in 6 months or a year (when we actually are running out do to potions).

3) The people who DID put in the effort to collect glowstone deserve the rewards of their efforts. Perhaps you should go to the effort of actually earning some credits and buying glowstone.

We never had resets before, and we shouldn't now.

What this incredible being just said. Or it would be spawning items, either way, it's certainly illegitimate.

And before you use the over realm wipe argument, that is to amend to the new version for one, and two, the presence of cobblestone and dirt are so abundant that a little more of it would do nothing to the economy or the 'balance of blocks' as I like to call it.

Refreshing the nether every now and then would change the proportion of glowstone to other blocks immensely, and could definitely damage the economy. Either way, it would definitely be a noticeable change in block proportion.

And no, I've never touched a glowstone block or dust on Minerealm, so I am not a hoarder. :)

This too is a crucial reason to note wipe so regularly, as every wipe there is, the connections between the cities of Minerealm should to be reconstructed up until the point where the Subway Project is complete. The only quick means of connecting these cities that doesn't involve getting users to co-operate by letting subways through their realms, is through the Nether. Because of this, travel between cities must also be carefully considered before the decision to wipe regularly is made.

Thank you, and sorry if this is tl;dr.

more glowstone won't ruin the economy for it. it's already pretty skewed. peoples' expectations for glowstone prices are too high.

4) Good players now know where every blaze spawner, netherwort, and hidden glowstone will be. The same people that got it the first time can now ge it even faster the second. The rich would just get richer.

5) All the above comments on block proportions/frequency. (I'm ashamed that didn't occur to me in the first place.)

Voted no, i like glowstone being a "luxury" item, not only this but if there were constant wipes every 2 weeks or so, nether roads, and other nether creations would have to be remade, every 2 weeks, which would end up being time consuming.

If you can't afford glowstone, then just use a cheaper alternative such as jack o lanterns, or torches.
