Enter the Ender Ender in the End

After long nighttime hours of work, the Ender Ender is now ready for business! It is located in The End along the main path, which can be found by locating the Stronghold portal in the Nether (the short and wide portal in "Creepy Caverns" within the Nether) It is open to all members of the server provided you do not modify it in any way whatsoever.

What is the Ender Ender? It's an Enderman farm! Endermen spawn on spawning platforms high within the structure (all other areas are spawn-proof so they will all spawn on the specified platforms) and fall into a chamber in the center of the main room where they take just enough fall damage to be easily killed by a single punch with a player's fist. In the main mode (Pearls and XP) they must be punched one at a time but drop both Ender Pearls and XP orbs, and in the secondary mode (Pearls only) they automatically die when they fall but do not drop XP orbs since no player actually made the killing blow to any of them. It also contains a level-thirty Enchantment Station, and Anvil, and an Ender Chest for your convenience, as well as a Powered Rail system to get you there and back since it is far away from the regular land area of The End where other Endermen can spawn.

It is important to note that the farm is much more efficient when there are no players elsewhere on the server since there is a maximum number of mobs that can exist on the server at any given moment. Also, be sure even though the Endermen are contained and not angry at any player, they will still attack if you look them in the eye. Lastly, you should not use weapons against them since you can just kill them in one hit with your fist anyway; keep in mind that Fire Aspect swords and Flame bows will reset the Endermen's anger focus and teleport them away from the chamber, so they should not be used at any time in the Ender Ender.

Questions? Feel free as always to contact timmc94, who built the structure based on the original design from another player and can assist with any issues that may come up.
