Thoughts on Blockhitting being taken out?

In 1.8, since blockhitting was considered a glitch, mojang is going to be taking it out. Also, here's some other combat system updates that are coming. -TnT can now flow in water (breaks certain cannons) -Can't punch the ground while drinking potions -Can't punch when bow is being pulled back -Can't punch the ground while eating food
What!? I love hitting the ground when I eat or drink potions!
Block hitting being removed? I think that's good. No more majestic combos. Edit: Please provide the source of your information; I would like to see this with my own eyes.

Honestly this is fine by me. Some people "abuse" blockhitting wayy too much. I use it in tunnels and any close combat, but this should force more strafing. Could help reduce kill farming though. I always blockhit with full diamond for complete tanking xD
As for blockhitting, i think im ok with that. It doesn't really help except that it reduces damage from bows and helps you in tight situations
With 1.7 sprint key, people can abuse block hit by getting insane combos with almost no effort, depending on their skill and ping of course. So it could be used much more offensively in 1.7, and abused by more people.
Although I used block hitting a bit, I got really mad when people would ONLY block hit in PvP. They'd just stand there and block hit. Overall I'm pretty happy about it.
Just a question, but is there some sort of changelog that says blockhitting was removed? Not saying that this isn't true, but I and many others would at least like a bit of official clarification :P
why not do this, hope that you will still be able to get on in 1.7 versions so you can block hit while people will be screaming HACKS!!! HE HACKS!!! hehehe
Block hitting is a tactic used in pvp, even if people think it's cheap, unfair, or just bad. It's just like saying strafing is bad and unfair people it makes people win fights. Yes I'm sad to see this be taken out of the game as it is a tactic that anyone could pull out and get the upper hand in a fight. Yes the combos are crazy that you can get but that is because of the combo of 1.7 and block hitting so one of them had to be removed for the insane combo to be removed.

apparently, it was a glitch and it wasn't supposed to be in minecraft.
Why the heck are they removing punching with the bow being pulled back!?!?!?!?! Get the torches and pitchforks... it's time for a.. *puts on sun glasses* Rant...

I see lots of people raging at block hitters I get mad too but I do it all the time. Except I don't just stand there and hit I have my finger constantly on the control key so if I stop block hitting I can run and stuff. What I'm saying is run up to a person and pvp as fast and effectively as non block hitters. It's a really good strategy and does involve some skill if you're doing it right like I am. Standing there doing nothing but hitting.requires little to no skill.
Oh well. I do use block hitting constently, but I hate to see the people that just block hit through out the fight. I would say it is a good feature. But the Food and Potions thing? Just sad ;-;
I'm pretty sure this is only a glitch, like the sprinting glitch in 1.6.1, there was a huge uproar in the soups community, only to find out it was a glitch which was patched in 1.6.2. I'm pretty sure (and am hoping) this is only a glitch in the snapshot/the first version of 1.8 otherwise no one will give me a challenge like StanMPL anymore :(((

Block hitting does take skill. Unlike other glitches, it requires more skill than just knowledge of it existing, which is why people such as myself are somewhat upset over the change.

How so? You get close to no movement when you block hit and all you need to do is click both mouse buttons
Blockhitting goes i leave MC simple as that. No jokes i will just get up and leave. Mojang are already turning into some large scale money whore company and when they start removing stuff from my favourite aspect of MC well goodbye all.
Really glad to see this, mojang will make PvP servers heaps better with no block hitting and the EULA :D also it's come to my attention that many people are saying "mojang is fucking up its owen game" etc. and I would like to know why people think/say this?!?

Because they are changing several things that have been in the game for awhile that many people adapted to. For no apparent reason either.

Block-hitting was a glitch, it gave an unfair advantage to those who can get insane combos because of ping. the EULA stopped/is stopping pay to win servers. i get people have adapted to it but because they are used to it doesn't mean it's good... also, I dislike the other changes but they make the game a bit more realistic. (Not that anyone really cares about realism .-.)

It didn't give an unfair advantage to those with good ping. No one was ever forced to make a payment to any server, and if they think that the gameplay is unfair, they just have to press the escape button on their keyboard and then press "Disconnect".
Im Australian, I can block hit as well as most American or Canadian players. Some of the best block hitter come from places such as Europe, and making claims that it is an advantage to those with better ping is outrageous and incorrect.
Should I ask Mojang to remove the ability to move while hitting someone? Because hey, people with better ping can strafe easier. Should I ask them to remove pvp all together, because again, there is a slight ping advantage.

Block-hitting haves player with a low ping an easy way to get huge combos (if you can click fast enough)
The EULA is useful because it is stopping the pay to win aspects in minecraft servers, I was never saying anyone was forced to pay...
a slight advantage from from ping is fine, when I play au servers I get a ping under 20, it doesn't make too big a difference with moving and strafing but makes a large difference with hits. If you can click fast enough with good ping the hits will keep on registering out of hit distance.

build high, I cant say anything much because this is the avicus forums and I don't want to get banned but ping and latency doesn't really effect blockhitting.

Pay to win isn't an issue if you aren't paying. If someone doesn't enjoy the server, I don't see what's so difficult about not playing it. You are incorrect about block hitting.

Also, can someone explain to me how right and left clicking takes skill?
It doesn't however using blockhitting to start, or get out of a combo shows skill and it takes skill to know when to blockhit or not. It has become part of many good pvpers style and just part of the general gameplay if it is removed then i will not be around as much as pvp will become more tedious for me.
Block hitting isnt being taken out, its changed to parring, same effect, different style.
Phew! Could you elaborate on different style?
