You do realize that making a city out of Moss stone is extremely hard and expensive? Moss stone only spawns around spawners so if someone or anyone has all that Moss stone, Expect at a great price.

1. There's an edit button, upper right corner of the post.
2. In my experience, structures of only one material look rather bad. Mix mossy with one or two others. I personally like mossy+cobble, and some regular wood to go with that. Go look near the Floating Isles; the structure in the ocean isn't complete, but it should give you an idea of what I'm talking about.

Randomized mossy+cobble used as a material for a
building structure would look bad. Its ok for flooring or maybe underground walls/roof but outdoor building... yuck.

1- It wouldn't look too great unless it was as a pathway or in small doses.
2- I have two hard-earned stacks of mossy cobble that I would never sell for that price.

I recommend using mossy cobble as a floor. So if you're using it as a theme for a city, that could be used in the roads, floors of buildings, etc. It also looks nice as a border around buildings (e.g. a column of mossy cobble at the corners of buildings, or along the bottom or top of a building). For the spaces between those borders, using something that isn't cobble (mossy or otherwise)--I like how stone brick looks, but smoothstone, stone slabs, and wood are all good options depending on personal preference.

I am not just going to use mossy stone in my town building but i will be using glowstone, stone brick, regular cobble, and maybe throw in some vines as well. Anyone selling? i need some.
Edit: We can talk about it more in game if you feel the price is not reasonable.
