Creepers spawning in houses... WHAT THE HELL MAN?!

(1/4) > >>

So today after mining a little and discussing a deal with guest i went to my house, someone talks to me, I start typing and suddenly- BOOOOOM! a creeper decides to go terrorist on me RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF MY LOBBY (not the first time this happens). so I just wanted to say, what the hell man? creepers spawning in my lobby? how is that even possible? don't dare to tell me my house is not lit enough, I counted 68 torches in the top floor and 42 in the first floor NOT TO MENTION GLOWSTONE. So seriously, why is this happening? can someone explain?

The point of this post is, make it stop! that shouldn't even be happening. I don't see anyone else dying in the middle of their houses at the hands of mobs that shouldn't be there in the first place. Whats the point of having a shelter if mobs will just pop up in it like its their own house...

To make things better, not only did i lose 1 set of diamond tools like that today (some enchanted) I lost 38 diamonds too...

I think im just gonna stay away from SMP due to the massive rage it gives me... my liver wont take much more of this...

Are you absolutely positively sure? Sometimes, all it takes is one block dark enough to spawn a creeper inside your house. sometimes they will spawn in certain rooms and walk around. If you want, i can give my analysis of your house tonight when i get on smp. But it happens to me all the time. It's a common thing in minecraft survival.

Maybe, but I really don't want to place a torch in every single block in my house, cause that would just look ugly and as a crafter, I wouldn't allow myself.

Also, the facepalm I did when that creeper exploded actually left a mark on my face...

Xeadin:
If there is even the slightest amount of shade, mobs will attempt to appear at those spots. Mobs don't need complete darkness just to be able to spawn-- they start spawning at a certain light level (I'm not 100% certain what that level is, but I think it's around level 5-8)

Just a helpful tip of advice-- put all of your valuables (diamonds) in a protected chest the FIRST thing when you get in to the server. It will save a whole lot of trouble and you won't have to worry about losing your items upon death as much

I alsoo find it helpful to get outside sometimes to vent out the stress built up, so taking short or long walks may be good for you ;)
