[Zinzi]

So the ominous woods is getting bigger? I know that witchery has a spell that will change a biome, and silverwoods from thaumcraft change a biome to magic forest.

Yes the ominous woods is growing bigger grr

You could place some sinister nodes along the border. They convert an area with radius of 8 or 9 blocks into eerie biome. Eerie biomes don't spread, so, you could use that as a buffer.

I'm pretty sure ominous woods don't spread. Tainted Lands/forest do however - are you sure it isn't that?

Easy way to check: Ominous Woods is a black biome. Black grass, black trees, everything pretty much. Tainted Lands however is a deep and very striking purple.

It could be that whatever pack they are playing has a conflict between taint biomes and ominous woods, and it shows as the woods, but has the characteristics of a taint biome

The Thaumcraft tainted lands biome is driven by the spread of fibrous taint on the surface.

This should be easy to spot. And it is 'easy' to physically block with water or any non solid block such as glass or fence.

Otherwise, in addition to the above, if twilight forest is in the pack it also adds a magical sapling that creates enchanted forest in a ~20 block radius.

Or you could nuke the living daylights out of the biome... that'd get rid of all the taintedness... and everything else, but it wouldn't spread anymore

The same is true of silverwood as they sometimes grow with a pure node inside them, which spreads magical forest, and is immune to taint, at least while the pure node is there.
