It all started with these updates from 'Jeb'. Am I the only one who finds sideways logs more of a bother than a use? They pop up when you DON'T want them and don't even look good. You can jump and do everything right but STILL you cannot place a log like you want. I am trying to build a medieval city and, as you know, they used to have a lot of wood. How do I make it look good if there is a sideways log in the midst of normal logs! I miss the old logs. * Reminisces about update 1.7 and the good old days *.

That is all

So after lots of replies on the forums (very few of them actually being nice o_O), I thought it would be best for me to reword this blog. Like a lot of people said on the forum sideways logs don't look bad but it is the way they are placed that is the unfortunate thing. Also, like people on this PMC blog have said (I can confirm that everyone on PMC is nicer than on the Minecraft forum) it would be best if you could have a key you can press to change orientation (eg. CTRL + right click) or, the idea I like more, a certain tool that can turn logs. I think a logging hook would be a great tool, which can be made from one stick and two iron ingots (stick = bottom middle, iron ingot = middle and other iron ingot = top left). This is just an idea, leave feedback is you like this or have an idea of your own. Happy building!
