    I used to feel the same way about there not being any ores out there until I just started walking WAY out and mining. Everything close to the spawn point is pretty much gone, but there is plenty out in the distance.

    I've been here a week, and I was surprised that the mining world got reset. I was mining and doing well. I was about 100 blocks from the spawn point, not that far. I was on during the reset and found that ore did increase but I will follow the advice above and mine further away from the spawn point.

    The mining world has a 500X500 size, and most people do mine near the spawn, resulting into less ores around that area, aswell as people bumping into the protected areas below spawn.

    I Agree the mine world should reset atleast every day.
    Maybe someone can right a script or something.

    I understand the frustration people feel when you really need something and can't find it. BUT, after playing a few days I learned to go a little further in the mine world and there are a decent enough amount of ores. The real secret is to pay attention to when it regenerates and then mine like crazy (which is what I did yesterday).

    The other thing I wanted to mention was if the server added a mod to create a lot more ores, it would ruin the economy. If everyone had thousands of diamonds, they would be useless. So I'm not real keen on the idea.
    There's plenty of ways to make money, just get out there and do the work.

    The problem with a reset everyday would be that everyone has the possibility to have rare ores creating a large number of them in the game making their value decrease

    We do have more mining worlds, we get a new one every week.

    The mining world is not going to be reset every day or even close to that. It is a huge area, learn how to mine. Walking around in open caves is not going to find you everything. You actually have to dig tunnels through the walls back and forth, over and over. You'll want to dig between 20 - 12 to find the easiest to get gold/diamonds/lapis.

    Also, maybe you people should stop depending on X-ray to mine for you. It doesn't work for ores on this server and you'll be banned for using it if found. And stop mining in the dark. Just because you have the brightness turned up with a mod doesn't mean you're supplying light. You actually have to place torches to light blocks so that the anti-xray plugin will show you the nearby coal/iron/gold/diamond/lapis/redstone. So many times have I gone through someone's dark tunnel and put torches down and found gold and diamonds. So sad...

    Even back when the mining world was a lot smaller than it was now, I was finding gold in unexplored areas of the map hours and minutes before the map was reset.

    If they could give you a Stone mining pick every time you go in, that could be quite good. Whenever you exit the mine world, you lose the pick. And don't get it back until you go back in, which (The mining pick) is refreshed. So you don't need to use your cobblestone to make a pick, or maybe the higher the rank the better the pick, so peasants get a wooden pick ( :twisted: ), the next rank gives you a stone pick, and so on and so forth. Hope you liked my post! :D

    I agree it would help stop people from dieing trying to get to egde of mine world because stupid people dig holes for people to fall into.

    Here's a suggestion, donate to the cause ($25 VIP access) and get the magic carpet. Just float up and stride across the ocean 'til you come across an untouched island. You'll find so many ores you'll feel spoiled. If not, another tip of advice would be: Turn around. When you /go mine, the whole mining world is not just in front of you. There's land behind the spawn point, too. :)
    Even when I get lazy and just fall in someone else's mine, I can still find things. Not as plentiful but I've found gold and even diamond just a block or two away from someone's mining passage.

    Quit yer griping, grab a picaxe, and open yer eyes.

    You seriously need a stone pickaxe to be given to you? What else were you going to do with the 3 cobblestone and 2 sticks? Neither of those resources are hard to come by.

    This is a very strange and lazy request.

    There is a whole bunch of ores in the mining world. Trust me, go somewhere that is far away from spawn. Then look at the terrain to see if it has been mine or not. If it isn't well, go dig in :D

    I cant get ANY sticks or cobblestone anymore, since I died down someones FRIKING hole! AND my only items were the starter quest and 4 diamonds (from voting). I cant find ANY trees, and I dont have (too) much Dei.

    Here is what I got TODAY while mining:
    6 stacks of coal
    20 lapis blocks
    15 diamonds
    40 gold
    2 stacks of iron
    tons of cobble (meh)
    20 melon seeds (semi meh)

    one trip

    Here is how you find the most stuff:
    1. dig a 2x1 hole (stand in the middle) all the way down to bedrock, build yourself back up 10 blocks from the top of the bedrock and then build a 2x1 tunnel for as long as you need to go, you will find lava lakes and you will find massive caverns because you are at the exact right height for them. It's very simple
