Enderman block moving

Welcome to survival ;D
This isn't a bug, its what enderman do - its like complaining that Creepers are blowing up your structures. Put torches down/light up the area around the outside of the town wall so that enderman can't spawn and your problem is fixed.
This is working as intended - you're lucky enderman don't currently attack you for looking into their eyes

Actually it is a bug, and Notch confirmed it:

http://pitforge.com/...getting-nerfed/

The reason he needs to nerf it, he explained later, is that he allowed them to move far too many blocks, including many that are used as common building materials. He will be nerfing them in a future patch. The biggest problem is that if an Enderman picks up a block then despawns, the block instantly vanishes. That means that if they pick up a rare block (Pumpkin, Mossy Stone, etc), you can't get it back.

And as a point of reference, I am fine with them moving blocks. That's what they will keep doing after 1.9 is released. What I'm not fine with is them being able to pick up over 60% of the blocks in-game currently, which makes it so that no matter what I build, it can be gone ridiculously quick in a few hours if someone decides to AFK near my house (And essentially grief me without the Admins being able to do anything about it since it doesn't track who camped near an area for a few hours). That's what's truly disturbing.

If you wish to stand by your statement, I understand - That's how they're currently coded. But I'm with Notch and the rest of Mojang on this one - Being able to pick up anything and destroy anything in a matter of hours is stupid since you can't do anything about it.

This is a bug, however, it is not a bug that we can fix, i will not disable the enderman from one persons say or my own say but i will start a vote on the forums asking if the community would like enderman disabled until they are nerfed in 1.9.

Actually there is a way to disable Endermen from picking items up, but if you run into them they will still attack you.

or we could just do that lol

Oh God, I would love you guys for doing anything to fix this. As it stands, I'm putting a layer of dirt in front of any and all mossy cobble that is exposed since there's no way to get more outside of cauldrons (I think?). The last thing I need to do is reinforce dirt with dirt from those little bastards x.X

Installed a plugin to stop the enderman picking up blocks.

From What I read. the enderman were not supposed to pick up player placed blocks, but were supposed to be allowed to pick up any other block that a player has not placed. OBviously that part was bugged out or wasnt implemented yet. Either way, I would agree that is a problem.
