Are they placed or items? If they are placed they may be soul shard spawners or moved there with a gravity or portal gun. I don't think you can get item versions of any except for pig spawners.

What are the two spawners you identified just as mob spawners spawning? The rest except for the pig spawners are naturally occurring and could have been moved by portal/gravity gun. If you pick up a spawner with a gravity/portal gun and place it on a torch or a few other blocks the spawner drops as an item and spawns pigs when placed. How long has this server been on and what is the general level of advancement of everyone on the server?

Portal guns can pick up spawners and move them around (eg, you can carry them in front of you through a portal back to your base). Dungeons aren't all that hard to find if you go on a decent field trip, mostly thanks to the abandoned mine shafts and the ravines, and portal guns also happen to be one of the things you can find in dungeon chests.

Dropping spawners onto torches makes it possible to get them in your inventory, which reverts them to pig spawners.

If you have soul shards, then that's another source for mob spawners. But by the sounds of it he's simply using a portal gun on vanilla spawners.

I'm also curious what you mean by "2 mob spawners".

with soul shards is possible to make spawners but if you distroy them you will get the soul shard back

Aye, sounds like he's just collecting spawners from dungeons/etc with his portal/gravity gun.

Very easy to do.

Right, if they are "normal" spawners (i.e. the type that you would find out in the world), then that collection would be easy to get. Skeleton and Zombie spawners are common in the TC3 barrows, blaze spawners are relatively easy to get ahold of. The would just need to be moved by portal gun/gravity gun (which are common finds in dungeons). Pig spawners are available from a bug with portal gun, whereby if a spawner is "dropped" onto a torch, the block drops, but reverts back to the standard pig spawner.

Given the distribution that you've explained, this is the most likely explanation.

If they are soul-shards spawners (i.e. ones crafted by killing mobs to charge up with their souls), it is still possible by exploiting the above bug to gt a large number of pig spawners, and use those to charge the shards. These can be combined in an anvil with a "typed" shard to get a high-level shard of certain types (i.e. blaze, ghast, etc.).

The top explanation is more likely to my mind, because the spawners mentioned are all of types that are relatively accessible in world (zombie, skeleton, pig, blaze), but either way I would not be concerned about a collection like that after 3 weeks.

I can get a tier 5 anything spawner in less than five minutes. The hard part is getting the slime spawner, once you have a tier 5 slime spawner you hook it up to drop the slimes from a height to make them split, than you can get souls from the split slimes since they weren't spawned by the spawner.

1 anvil - 1 soul shard with one soul of whatever type and 1 full slime soul shard = tier 5 anything spawner[DOUBLEPOST=1370813799][/DOUBLEPOST]If you don't want spawners running rampant disable soul shards and de-op him

As Lambert and the others have told you: It's not that hard. Over three weeks, even with only an average of half an hour a day, I'm sure most of us here could pull that off.
