Private Mine/s

How Would It Work:
This most asked question. Okay so, this is Dragon's idea. A door within a lobby. You'll enter it get a pop up 'Which Mine Would You Like To Enter?' Then you'd enter and have a 100x100 mine to yourself. This idea is amazing, it's simple.
What About Public Mines:
Remove them and add realm spots. I think more Realms spots in places like Eden is needed.
Group Mining:
It'll act like a normal Realm/Room. You can set to Me & My Friends, Only Me, and Anyone. This is so you can mine peace or let your friends mine with you.
Some Issues With Public Mines:
There are a couple issues. Some aren't caused inside mines themselves. People are making ALT/s which is making more Realms. People are buying Rooms to buy, which is putting more stress on the Server. The biggest issue is, of course, THEFT! people are being robbed in Mines and we can't exactly report them for this offense. If it even is an offense.
I know coding itself is a hard job but I think this should be something added soon. Mining is a huge part of the game and it's a huge issue. IMO.
I personally sent a message to Support about it. I think it's getting bad =/ It's sad...
This is of the Paragraph/s I got from Mabz:
I would encourage the community and you, to share constructive feedback on your gameplay experience in the forum with other players respectfully. This would also help us know what the players are thinking and make them a priority if it makes sense to us. If it is too personal or invasive, you can send us a support ticket here instead.
Just a side-note for Staff. I am not trying to spam the whole of forums , I just wanna show off how many people are willing to change their profiles etc. just for it. <3

We need it! and i dont think am the only one, WE all need it!
Edit: Players say, Just buy a room if you want a private mine, not only does it put stress on the server, everyone can't afford to just buy a room to mine.
But you might say, "Just go back and get the items yourself instead!" We are trying to make the most out of our mining experience. We want to get as many miners as we can our mining team so we can collect more. It's not easy to keep going back and collecting things every time, it slows us down. Even Vacuumers on the mining team can't collect everyone's items all the time.
Ima make poster for Private Mines soon enough.
A certain number of months ago, CC made starter realms smaller and rooms/realms more expensive. Obviously, they were trying to cut back on, rooms and realms for some reason that likely had to do with memory and storage (but that's besides the point).
If CC implemented your idea, it would mean that new rooms would have to be created. This would force them to allocate more memory on their server which isn't favorable. Even if memory isn't the issue my argument still holds true... For whatever reason they tried to minimize the number of rooms, they would want to also keep the number of mines minimal. Even if you do destroy/delete the mine after, there will still be around 30-50 people mining at all times meaning the number of rooms will constantly be increased... especially as the number of QBees grows.
Don't get me wrong, I'd love a personal mine and the advantages are massive. But at what cost?
First off, mines are a huge community aspect of the game. This is an MMO and limiting player interaction would be a step in the wrong direction. I agree that mines could be improved due to thefts, but I'd never want them removed.
Secondly, all public mines are quested. Their removal would require the quests to be re-made, and the server along with all accounts (new and current) adjusted to the change. Getting new content out would provide more fun and benefits than a remake of what's already done and funcional. Also as mentioned above, I'm sure it would put more strain on the server with so many rooms being regenerated.
And lastly, please do not spam the activity wall with hashtags about the idea. Everyone has their suggestions and wants to be heard. This is what the suggestion section is for, everyone has a say :)
Sometimes i want to mine in a mine (thats obvious) and:
A wild idiot guy appeared! Idiot guy uses: "hey drop your scarf"
me: ignores
guy: drop your scarf i will duplicate it
me: k
guy: DROP YOUR SCARF! NOW!!
me: (i dont do this evrytime but sometimes i say) NOT MY PWECIOUWS
guy: I WILL TAKE ALL ITEM YOU MINE
me:
jk i dont do this (i leave the mine)
They are called rooms.
Wanna mine alone then you have to pay for it.
Someone steals a precious block of sand, then go to another mine.
Or you could pick up the blocks as you mine stuff.
Stress from Private Mines is true but it's basically the same if people are buying rooms to mine in and leaving them and buying me. IMO, I think having 1 regenerating room is better than have 20 empty rooms. Also, maybe make the Private Mines cost 5OOOc or 1OOOOc there's not like 100 per IP. Buying rooms is silly imo. Why would you pay 4OOO odd c for something we should be allowed to do for free. =(
You just have to pick up the blocks as you mine. It aint rocket science.
Creating a whole new mining system just because someone take a few blocks now and again is stupid imo.
I hate stuff that takes away player interaction.
Lets all just mine on our own in private mines. Its an MMO.
one of those Ms stands for multiplayer. You can have those rooms.
They are on the cubit store :)
I am aware that theft in mines is an issue, but that doesn't mean that there has to be some change like this. If you want to mine on your own, there's rooms available for that. Don't get me wrong, but starting riots over something as silly as this, isn't a way to suggest things. If everyone started riots over things they want, we all would be doomed.
But the directly in inv. is a much simpler solution.
and removing the public mines is just idiotic imo how will the new people earn their c without public mines?
That the real issue.. Just because there are annoying, rude or disrespectful players, doesn't mean that you should change the game..
Like Gdog said, if you want a "private mine" then buy a room..
And if you don't want to pay for then suck it up and take the good with the bad, where the bad is people.. BEWARE! PEOPLE ARE EVERYWHERE!

I Like the good old suggestion "I Pull or blow it up, it's mine to pick up". Game mechanics. Would heavily decrease "mine griefers".
As for server load, an old suggestion again.
The "repack doors/rooms/realms" idea, or the "recycle doors/rooms/realms" idea.
Those ones hit two birds at once so to speak.

In the light of being serious this motion within the community is bringing attention to a growing problem. Nothing that I may add as this topic has ran it's course. Important to reiterate is that there are two solutions that would have a very wide beneficial impact.
1. Make materials mined by an individual only pickable up by said petson that mined it.
2. Put a feature in that would make it possible to turn off the ability for others to teleport. It would be nice beyond mining purposes to make it where we can have a moment to ourselves without being tped.
