    You can do it, but it would require a back and limb worth of Netherstars. Bedrock block @ NetherSpawn shop = 400 Nether Stars.

    Get a sign, and place it on the MobSpawner. No need to type anything on the sign. Once thats done, just do /cprivate and right click the sign, so you protect it. This will automatically protect the spawner too. Preventing griefers.
    Assuming you were mentioning Mining World.

    LWC is disabled in the mining world, this does not work. The best way that you can protect a spawner is by not using any material that isnt dirt or cobble and to fill in the nearby caves entirely.

    Yeah, which takes a LOOONG time. I really do not see any use for spawners now; they can easily be walken upon and destroyed, and we cannot do anything about it. D:

    Get nether access, very few spawners in the nether are destroyed/found. Even when people find spawners less people in the nether destroy spawners especially if it is only a single blaze spawner.

    Put lots of lava around it . And many water traps that would not allow them to get in

    Create a room INSIDE a lava lake, possibly artificially made.

    I'm pretty sure you are on your own when it comes to locking and protecting a spawner. Andrew has pretty much disabled any form of locking one. :p

    We've come to a possible conclusion that, apart from owning Pyro + Water + many other donation features, we will not be in the slightest of being able to protect / lock a spawner, apart from using effort to cover up caves etc. :p

    Normal users can break the disposal sign. Just tested it to make sure.

    Adding on to what Ryan said. Normal users can only break disposal signs in the mining world. They shouldn't be able to break it in the mainworld though.

    There is no way to protect spawners. All you can do is to buy as many mutihome donations as posible and find as many spawners as you can. I go though about 15 each mining world reset. I break any I do not own. Also matty is right the best option riht now is blaze farming with less people in the nether to stumble on your spawners.
