So yeah, I know that most people like this glitch because their gold and diamond mines regenerate all the ores a few times in a single day, but somebody has to report it some day.

I also know that this Ore/Stone/Dirt Regeneration glitch was originally meant as a role-back mechanic near spawnzones to make sure that there are no pit-falls right outside of spawn (sort of like an anti-greif mechanic for spawnzones), but it actually affects pretty much everywhere, ground level and below.

It's easily exploitable and cheaty once you realize that your diamonds, gold, iron, and other non-renewable blocks respawn multiple times a day, every day.

Solverlabs removed Diamond Temples for a reason, because it allowed players to consistently obtain a ridiculous amount of rare resources with minimal effort, but with the Ore/Stone/Dirt Regeneration glitch, it basically does the same thing, but with every ore, and natural resource in the ground, rather than just the diamond blocks that the diamond temples had.

In just a few days to a week, you can easily obtain as much diamond blocks as you used to be able to find from a diamond temple, but with even more than that, and not just diamonds, but other ores too.

And after all, blocks like ores, dirt, gravel, sand, and clay are meant to be non-renewable resources anyways, not a resource that consistently re-appears multiple times every day.

And the exploitable opportunities with this glitch aren't the only problems with it, it also limits and ruins building opportunities.

It ruins building opportunities because, if you want to terraform an area, flatten out an area to build, build a tunnel, build an underground base, or even have a portion of your base within where a hill used to be, in a matter of time, the surface dirt/gravel/sand/clay/stone blocks from said hills will burry your house, tunnel, flattened out feild, or structure.

This means that we have a glitch that allows players to exploit the limited, non-renewable resources in the most cheaty way, and a glitch that limits the creative abilities of players who just want to build, or shape the environment the way they want.

I have friends that quit the main Survival Multiplayer Server just because of this glitch.

Basically, it would be better if this Ore/Stone/Dirt Regeneration glitch just gets removed and stay that way, as it just makes the game a worse place with the glitch still existent in there.

This glitch only effects the Main Survival Multiplayer Server as I know of, and the glitch doesn't effect the Private Maps, and Single player modes.

Also this glitch only regenerates any of the ground level, and Underground blocks that had been mined in an area where it's exposed to air, and if most non-natural, player-made blocks such as cobblestone, and stone bricks completely surround a small area, the natural underground blocks won't regenerate until there's either an exposed block of air that's not completely surrounded by the certain player-made blocks, or a block that doesn't prevent the Ore/Stone/Dirt Regeneration glitch from happening, like glowstone blocks for example, is added to the surrounding area.

Basically in most cases, if you have a build or structure that cuts though a natural hill or though the ground, you will eventually have to deal with it being completely burried by the natural underground blocks the next day if you have even a single air block exposing to the outside world, or a block that doesn't prevent the glitch exposed to anywhere that will allow the glitch.

Also having a single natural ground block(Stone, Dirt, Dirt-with-grass, Gravel, Sand, or Clay) or an Ore in a cleared area where natural ground blocks used to be, will regenerate all of the natural ground blocks that used to be there, when it's time for the Regeneration glitch to happen muliple times a day.

The blocks that have the ability to trigger the Ore/Stone/Dirt Regeneration glitch are Stone, Dirt, Dirt-with-grass, and then any transparent blocks will risk the Regeneration glitch if exposed to the previous listed blocks such as Exposed Air, Exposed natural plants, Exposed glass, Exposed glowstone, Exposed torches, Exposed leaves, and various other transparent blocks, Also blocks such as Coarse Dirt, Grass Path, Farmland with no crops growing on it, and Snow blocks.

This glitch will only regenerate natural ground blocks that already used to be there, it won't add new ground blocks in places where they didn't exist in their terrain's natural state, so building your structure in the sky, over water, or on a naturally flat area where your structure doesn't cut through the natural terrain will make it not affected by the glitch, and only natural ground blocks that are ground level and below, will trigger the Regeneration glitch, but any natural ground blocks above ground level, even by one block, will not trigger the glitch.

Also liquid blocks such as water, and lava aren't effected by this glitch either.

Regardless on the ways to prevent the Ore/Stone/Dirt Regeneration glitch, it still limits creative building opportunities by a considerable amount, and it also allows players to exploit rare and limited resources.

the Server has functionally infinite terrain, so it's not like you people are gonna run out of resources, just at the current moment the ores are glitched and exploited, and all the other underground blocks are affected too. The removal of this glitch will not make everybody run out of resources unless you're too lazy to actually mine, instead of just camping around a diamond ore vein to wait for the diamonds to suddenly respawn every day. Removing the glitch will balance the game more, and adds more benefits than loosing benefits.

they took away Diamond Temples for the same reason they should take away the Ore/Stone/Dirt Regeneration glitch, because it allows players to get a ridiculous amount of rare resources in a quick amount of time, with minimal effort. Sounds familiar with a certain glitch effecting the Server right now as we speak? It should, because the Regeneration glitch does just that, but this time not with just diamonds, it effects almost every block type ground level and below: Ores, Stone, Dirt, Gravel, Sand, and Clay. And unlike the Diamond Temples (which were intended natural structures that their existaexi just wasn't thought through completely until their removal), this Regeneration glitch isn't even meant to be in PoC any farther than around Spawnzones, meaning that it's exploiting a broken game mechanic that allows you to get a ridiculous amount of rare resources in a somewhat quick amount of time with minimal effort, just as long as you're patient enough to wait everyday when they regenerate, and you remember we're your ore veins are(unless you have an Alt dedicated to just that, then that's even less effort). It's basically like a free diamond farm, but with every ore vein of diamond, along with every other resource underground, it really unbalances the game.

This glitch is not how ores are meant to work. It allows people to exploit the rare resources to the point that they have little value, and it screws up many types of builds with the other underground blocks that also regenerate that aren't ores such as Stone, Dirt, Gravel, Sand, and Clay, as it ends up burrying a lot of bases.

BlueTangs Rock3, I thought you were smart. Only the top few layers of dirt and sand regen. If it ruins your base make it deeper. And how tf are diamonds not still rare?! We have to struggle every day to mine if we want to keep a few stacks in our inventory. I’d rather have more fun building than mining all the time.

they're nor really rare anymore if you wait around of a couple diamond ore veins to regenerate every day, after like a week, you'll have like a stack of diamonds. also the the Regeneration glitch effects me when I'm underground. And it effects anyone tried to terraform and flatten out land on the surface, it can really mess up some builds if there stone, dirt, and other things burrying them every day. It also limits a lot of building opportunities. This glitch effects way more than ore respawning, the ores are just the cherry on top of the cake. The glitchy cake that is. Also the only reason why people have SO many diamond blocks in such a small amount of time, is because we got a good amount of people just waiting around, and farming respawning diamonds and gold like their some kind of crop. Exploiting a broken game mechanic that was meant to only affect spawnzones, but somehow effected everywhere.

you may not wait around for diamond respawns every day, but enough people do it to cause a problem.

Nah man, I'm good. Trying to save exploited infinite ore glitch I see? Just when like GHE tried saving the Diamond Temples from a few months back? Look man, the ores aren't the biggest problem with the glitch, it's all of the other blocks that regenerate with it, but Solverlabs removed the Diamond Temples for the same exact reason they should remove the ore part of the Regeneration glitch as well, as I said many times, it allows players a way to exploit the game, and get a ridiculous amount of rare resources in a short amount of time, in the minimal effort possible. It's sorta like a duplication glitch that effects the actual terrain itself, and the richer clans depend on this glitch, and if it was ever the be removed, the richer clans of PoC would take a huge hit and gradually be able to get less diamonds and gold, but after all the ore veins in the grond are meant to be single used(not become someone's infinite rare resource farm),and then you move on to the next ore vein. It's an infinite terrain so there's a near infinite amount of resources, you just got to look for them and mine them, and not just wait for them to respawn every day. Mine for ores they way they're meant to be mined in the first place. Glitches this game breaking must be fixed at high priority, heck even a higher priority then actual update features.

it's still basically a duplication glitch, that effects people in negative ways to even the players who don't use it for Ore farms, but instead know it for burrying their structures in stone and dirt.
