No, that would not server the purpose of this proposal. I guess you miss the point. If you wish to propose an alternative, be my guest, but I will certainly not support any proposals that will not lead to reduced mithril availability.

Explain your ridiculous statement, for I don't understand what you think is ridiculous and why, nor which of the proposed changes would actually lead to 'no mithril on servers within a month'.

Please explain what you think is ridiculous about the proposal to restrict mithril occurence to Mountains of Moria. Mithril is going to be extremely rare because:

1) The four-mithril-ore-per-ingot thing would make it, in effect, four times rarer. It also makes no sense: you'd think in a 1mx1mx1m block of stone with enough ore in it that you can literally see the metal there'd be enough for one teeny-tiny ingot.

2) You're restricting it to a small strip of land in the misty mountains. If you combine that with the four ore per ingot thing, that'd make it (get this) over 1000% rarer. That's insane.

And if you add all that to the fact mithril is already arduous to mine...

I get you want people to use faction gear, but most servers already have rules regarding that. No one would mine for mithril in middle earth; they'd just to the overworld for diamonds.
