k so i brought a bunch of obsidian into the nether, i travel pretty far, cant find my original portal. i make another in the nether, no problems. i end up in some random place. i have always had a compass, so that was no problem. i have been walking, mining, and boating(?) my way to my spawn for over 30 minutes(i still dont know where i am). anyone have any likewise experiences?

Nope.
1 step in the Nether=8 blocks in the real world.
Therefore, there are glitchy portals, as well as lost people.
The Nether can be used for speed traveling, like making 2 portals 8 blocks apart (minimal, or else the portal in the real world will warp you to one of each, because it is too close together).
EDIT: Changed values from 16 to 8. My mistake.

Except if you put two portals on earth, chances are it'll only use one, and the other will be lost for eternity.
|<portal 1 |<portal 2
|<nether portal
You go through portal 1, and end up in Nether portal, but seeing as they're both connected to the same portal, you'll generally only come out portal 1 and portal 2 will be rendered useless.

Pfff.
I really only use flymod for building big things or for getting around an SMP server.
