Hey guys, so I am coming at you with some information that most of you won't even care about, so unless you play any of the packs I have made, or play with JordsUtils (the mod I have been working on), then feel free to leave now.
So I have been struggling to find the motivation to work on anything I have been doing for the community to use recently, and this is really starting to bother me, as I feel like I am not pleasing people (which is why I made the packs) by not keeping them up to date. But I also feel that due to my time constraints, I shouldn't spend all my time working on something that I don't use/don't have the time to use. For example, I came home from work yesterday to spend 3 hours finishing off the update for 0.9 of JordsUtils, only to play with it on Industrial Revolution (which I spent 30 minutes working on that day) for around 10 minutes before I decided to call it a night.
And I know this probably sounds selfish, but I actually want to be able to play stuff without doing stuff. I think the total amount of time I have spent working on Let it End totals at least 100 hours, and I haven't even had the chance to play it for more than maybe 5 hours. And it's this which bothers me, I want to be able to enjoy Minecraft again, but I find myself becoming more and more bored of it, the more I actually do to change it (making mods/packs).
But this lack of motivation isn't just Minecraft related, so it isn't like I could go to another gaming community and do the same (create new content for other players) so I won't be leaving here. But I will be taking more of a passenger approach for a while. I will still be helping out the FTB team as and when they need me and the same goes for the Phoenix Team, but I won't be pursuing any personal projects any further, just because it isn't really helping my mental well being at all... which is funny really as I started doing all this stuff as a way to distract myself (more about this can be read on the Let it End forum post).
So what will be getting affected:
So that's about it. If something wasn't clear, or you would like to continue any of these projects, then feel free to leave me a message
TL;DR:
Jordan is a douchebag who is not going to work on anything anymore and they don't deserve your respect.

So what will be getting affected:
- Let it End - I will do one more update on this, to fix all the bugs that I know of. There may be more in the future, if I play through the pack and find anything else.
- Industrial Revolution - I may do one more update. But that would be where it ends, as I don't intend to do anything else with it. The concept of this pack sounded fun, but I don't find it interesting enough to play.
- After End - I haven't had the motivation to work on this for a while. I am a terrible builder, and a lot of this packs questing was based around me building places... So no updates will come from this.
- JordsUtils - I may do one more update for this, just to fix the naming issues. But I don't really see a point, as it's not like many people use it.
- Server - I don't have a name for my server, but it will be affected, I don't know what's going to happen with it, whether I leave it running Industrial Revolution, or swap it to an official FTB pack, or something from the Phoenix Team, who knows. But whatever happens with it, I probably won't be spending any more time than I already do making sure it works (i check maybe once a week :/)
