Discussion garbage gamerule
mob griefing is only turned OFF for pretty much ONE REASON ONLY EVER and that is to stop creeper explosions from leveling your entire world as they spawn constantly all around you. MAYBE rarely to stop enderman or ghast griefing but how big of a problem can that really be. however turning off mob griefing causes an OUTRAGEOUS amount of straight broken mechanics in the game: Piglin trade farms dont work, Sheep farms are all broken, Snow golem's no longer create any snow, Villager breeding is completely broken and they wont pick up any crops, You also cant give any armor to mobs like zombies, It also prevents mobs like dolphins, foxes and pandas from holding items/eating I could literally go on and on for hours about all the things it just completely breaks when you turn this gamerule on, I understand they consider these things "Mob griefing" but a sheep eating a piece of grass that immediately grows back and does not destroy any blocks is not even close to the same category as a ghast or a creeper that literally explodes and destroys/deletes many blocks. Im honestly surprised that me sneezing isnt also considered mob griefing with this logic. They DESPERATELY need to add some more specific categories to this gamerule its ridiculous that I have to install plugins for that
