joshskiizz:
Tiggy probably loaded every chunk in the Nether, lol.

Chief149:
No, world generation is randomly done at runtime based on a seed. Chunks made after the update (in unexplored areas) will contain it. If the chunks can be erased from the map and regenerated, then the full nether will have the ores.

Morrison1996:
I like chief's first idea. Although wolfer and I have a efficient balze spawner deign in the first guest nether, if we to just re gen the first nether that could be considered a nether mine and just be periodically regenerated. Or like always for the stuff we can't feasibly get the market is probably the answer.

Saeberus:
I think adding it to the market once it's released would be the best and easiest choice, much like the way we added anvils to the market. They would be priced rather low due to how common they are. I also don't think it would take away from the game as some people would say considering we already get diamonds for voting, a commodity that was intended to be rare.

We added anvils to the market? They are craftable! >:( Of course, we also offer various armor sets, including chain which is otherwise unobtainable at this point. :-\ Yes the market is an easy out, and might be best considering it is so easy. But if this server is about survival, then perhaps having a nether or two regenerated might be better. I imagine that not much has yet been built in the new guest nether other than some structures to claim blaze spawners, so I would think that to be the best place for a complete wipe. Again, I do not know if someone has built a house or not, I made an assumption for the purposes of discussion. Chief's idea is also an excellent, though perhaps not quite as simple, solution.

Also to consider, given the abundance of the ore and its high value in making new redstone items, its price for buying and selling is going to have a slight effect on the economy. Mining in the nether is much faster due to the large exposed areas and the ease with which netherack breaks even under an unenchanted pickaxe. If any portion of the nether is regenerated, it is going to be mined to heck.  :P
