    The problem there is the pack, yes. But, as said pack isn't running the newest version, that kinda makes it so they're not supported, no? After all if you want the fixes to anything, anyways, you have to run the newest version. Anyone who expects old versions to have all the fixes or expects...

    As a giant fan of FM and one who uses it *heavily* for the integration ... I'll miss Thaumcraft without it. I don't see that that new system makes there be no point to having conversion wands, though. Even if it charges directly from aura passively, what if there is little aura in an area as...

    I still find it deplorable. Examples of individual users, even with their names hidden, don't need to be shown. Props for the name change, though. Improvement is still improvement.

    Four to eight weeks is likely more reasonable, though I'll freely admit that if one has the time to devote to it that two weeks is probably more optimal. That being said, we don't live in an optimal world and Minecraft is only a hobby. If I had the time and patience to devote to Minecraft that...

    I don't see any problem with that. Curse launcher isn't all curated and whatnot. It's just a launcher. To be honest I'm not quite sure how you got the idea that it'd be anything but that.

    Select 'FTB Official Pack' from the category dropdown. Or search by name. Simple and easy to find what you want. The only difference is that third-party packs are easier to make and no longer require codes to see in the launcher. It could probably use a 'version' filter, though.

    Is it bad that just having KingLemming on board is likely to get a majority of people interested?

    *Looks outside*. Hmm. There is some sun out there. I think that means that it is? I dunno. I prefer the night! :p Me too! ^.^ Hmm .... I had an idea on how you could have the option but make it reset per new version ... Well then I greatly misunderstood as I was missing that crucial...

    Assuming that 'do not show to clients' is a permanent effect and affects both SMP as well as SSP then I would feel that's sufficient. If I misunderstood it was likely due to bad wording, like your frequent statements that you'd never allow permanent disables for the reminder.

    Reika's Update Checker

    Because I was informed, by you I believe, that it is only temporary and not permanent. To me it's only a fix if I can permanently disable it for my end users. The only updates reminders I *might* allow my end users to see are client-side only mods (such as Fastcraft) as that's something they...

    That's something *I* am willing to do, but something I'm unwilling to make the users of my pack have to deal with as it's beyond their control.

    I know. That's why it should be up to the server admin's discretion instead of yours as you're not the one administrating their server. Updating client side, testing, uploading, updating server side on test server, testing again, rolling changes from the test server to the main one...

    Yes, yes it does make them a bad admin. No argument there. I don't rely on anything but absolutes. I prefer known to unknown. Especially when the known isn't a pressing issue. But that's my judgement call to make. Noone elses. Then you're not testing as diligently as I do. You don't...

    It is possible. Require version and logs for bug reports. Disregard those that don't have them unless you have good reason to believe that it's actually an issue. There. Done.

    Reika's Update Checker

    Not really. Mod makers generally fix all real bugs that come to them. But there's the second layer who are put in the tough position. Those are the server admins. They must decide if a particular update is important/critical enough to update on their server. That decision should be solely...

    As one who works in enterprise-level network and system administration, I have to say that you don't understand understand the requirements of running stable servers. There rings true an old adage of "if it ain't broke, don't fix it." In the world of administration this is absolutely true...

    I agreed with you until you said this. No. Trying to clone an actively devved mod is just not cool. Period. Yes, that clicking is a hassle for people that will not be updating those mods for valid reasons and it does show that you don't seem to care about the bother that creates for those...
