    A Reason to hate Bee's and/or Pipes

    PPPS I love being condescending Also, I was totes just testing you ;) No but seriously I don't really care about grammar too much, except for the bloody apostrophes (even though I (rarely) make the mistake when typing fast) which do my head in. Luckily i can pull it off IRL because of my...

    Major LAG help please!

    The problem is that they create pseudo-air blocks underground that the world then has to generate which create tons of lag; the pocket edition of minecraft doesn't even have caves because they cause lag, and this mod decides to make thousands upon thousands (seriously, look through a world gen...

    Where is the line between contraption and exploit?

    We should be all high-and-mighty so that they get wound up and united against a common enemy! That's how all good bromances are born! .... I seem to be unable to stop myself from being condescending....

    UU Matter for GraviSuite

    Just saying, the lappack is way easier to make than quantum leggings/helm/boots. As for your question, I don't think it's worth making /everything/ out of UUM, when stuff like iron or carbon plates are so easy to get without it.

    Major LAG help please!

    There are one or two other settings a lot of people forget, although I seriously doubt they would cause this much lag; turn snooper thingy off and make sure that your video card can use Open GL Also, do you have a lot of microblocks in your house? They cause a fair bit of lag on some systems.

    why is this mystcraft age unstable?

    You need to specify which kind of biome; think of the "single biome" as a noun and the kind as the adjective. Age creation is pretty dodgy to say the least unless you're some kind of expert :P

    A Reason to hate Bee's and/or Pipes

    I hope you'll be pleased to know that you have restored my faith in humanity. Also, there's the whole mess with proper nouns ending with S which I won't even start to explain. Thought i'd keep it simple for the OP and only cover what is more relevant ;)

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Pigmen spawns ignore light :P But the xycraft blocks would work, and look awesome, and there are loads with different designs and stuff :)

    Make sure to analyse your bees; just because it is a Tropical it doesn't mean that it likes jungles. If you've been cross-breeding then traits might be messed up.

    A Reason to hate Bee's and/or Pipes

    Not sure how you can blame anyone but yourself for this... Also, it's Bees with no apostrophe. The apostrophe-s means "is". So it's = it is, bee's = bee is You meant to say Bees, because in the english language, when you put an S on the end of something it becomes plural. This is something you...

    Where is the line between contraption and exploit?

    Your argument has a flaw; it's one hundred percent wrong. Unless you've paid the mod makers, you have absolutely no right to tell them what to do. And even if you had paid, (for example vanilla), Mojang still wouldn't have to do what you say because, guess what? They don't work for you. If you...

    Automating Rolling Table?

    It's basically (from what I understand) exactly like an automatic crafting table; if so, then just put the ingredients in a chest and pump stuff out of the rolling machine.

    Dumb Modular Powersuit Tricks

    Why are you pillaring when you have a jetpack? Also, I swim regularly in lava when hunting ghasts. It's good for your complexion.

    Factorisation Exosuits vs. Immbis' Powersuits

    I'm a third irish, and created my username when I was stupid (and like 11). This makes me feel better; I was genetically conned into sounding stupid!

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    The thing is that the redstone engines are not at all intended to power machines; they were made for pipes and stuff like mining wells/pumps; they create a trivial amount of power due to how BC is coded but nowhere near enough to make a difference, even with four of them. The redstone energy...

    Tropical bees not working

    So basically, give the queen a regular flower and she'll be fine. This is actually a good thing (certainly not bad anyway) because it means that you can lump your tropicals in with your commons and cultivateds and stuff without having to shear some vines :)

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    It's kinda hard to tell, but it looks like you're powering a machine with a redstone engine. This won't do anything (it will TECHNICALLY but it is so slow that it's utterly negligible). As for your Stirling engine, the TE machine uses more than 1 eu/t, so (hopefully) between loads the engine...

    Where is the line between contraption and exploit?

    I decide if something is worth it based on how hard it was to make; an infinite closed-circuit power system SOUNDS op (and in the case of solar panels it is) but if it was made from an SS soul shard spawning zombies, which die in quicksand (prevents xp lag) so that I can centrifuge the flesh...
