If they lived near there. Say I lived around the portal at -5k, -5k. Someone else with a hidden base nearby wishes to go to spawn, so they go to this portal, knowing that there is a portal at those coords. They find base, they raid base, you lose.

when i say build a base around it. i don't mean right on top of it haha. you would build a base fairly far away from it, and then use it. and i don't think that we should place them on exact coords. Assuming they are one-way, they should be randomly placed and placed out to probably around 50k.

This is one point I disagree with fairly strongly. If they are to exist, they should be made public, and easily known and found. And perhaps make them out of bedrock rather than obsidian. That way, I can't waltz over with my efficiency 3 or efficiency 4 and tear that shit down faster than I did your mother(s).

Good idea.

You can't break gates that way. They only can be broken if the person who made them makes them no longer a gate.

I think knowing where the gates are to start would ruin the fun. Sure, making them easy to find i can see, but why made public? ...if i find a portal i don't want other players to know about it.

It would be "hubs" that would be placed randomly. It'd be like having the spawn at a few different areas.

I think it would only be a "hub" if it were a two way portal. One-way would still involve people walking to it and I don't see the point in walking to it, if all the portals lead to the same point. And if they all lead to the same point, i think that is where the mast majority of people that are going to want to pvp are going to be.

If they all lead to spawn and not back, make a shitload of them. Duh.
