    What is commonly disabled in Multiplayer?

    That depends on how public the server is and how well you trust it's inhabitants. With friends, I wouldn't disable anything, on a public server, I'd only disable griefing tools. On a competitive public server, well I couldn't really say, depends on the nature of the competition.

    Pumping liquids faster

    No, because then you would be playing efficiently. :p

    What block, tool, or feature converted you to modded Minecraft?

    Before I discovered FTB, it was Timber! (similar to Treecapitator), the campers mod (forget the actual name, adds different types of campfires, tents, and random campsites with campers to the world-gen), and Insta-houses (craftable blocks, when right-clicked with the special tool, made instant...

    How do I take a machine down with a wrench?

    In vanilla, I always had a sword in slot 1. In FTB it's an Omniwrench. Who needs a sword when you have frickin turtles with frickin lasers on their heads!

    Am I the only one who cringes......

    I call pretty much anything mined from the earth infinite. Because the world, for all intents and purposes, is infinite. And if you somehow managed to mine 4096000000000000 (maths are not precise, but the number is friggin huge, I assumed 32m x 32m blocks) blocks all the way down to bedrock...

    Unique Energy, Your Set-Ups and Plans.

    Nope, I tried it. Unfortunately, the setup draws more EU than it makes. I haven't tried it with a boiler however, I was burning the methane in gas turbines. The problem is the fishers draw so much juice, and you don't get very much methane at all from fish.

    Unique Energy, Your Set-Ups and Plans.

    A small boiler or power converters, only ways I know of to get steam. Boilers are safe as long as they have water. An aqueous accumulator will make plenty for even the biggest boiler, so a small one shouldn't be a worry. I myself have never seen a boiler explode. Edit: I just blew up a 1lp...

    Equivalent Exchange has to go.

    EE3 only adds 3 items, minium shards, minium stone, and philosophers stone(only available in creative or through NEI cheat mode). The stuff with the corny captions I'm thinking you mean Xeno's Reliquary. It has the "Emporer's Chalice", captioned "An infinite water bucket unless you drink from...

    Equivalent Exchange has to go.

    I'm not sure I'm following. You mean let them use EE3 but not the minium stone? That's all there is to the mod. If you ban the minium stone you might as well disable the mod.

    Confessions: I never ... even though I'm told I should.

    That could be an MFFS upgrade. Weather cards/light cards.

    Ladders!

    If it does, I am in violation;) Honestly, if I hosted an IRC server, as long as there wasn't massive data transfers going on in it, they'd probably not even notice. IRC chat by itself doesn't use much bandwidth, it's the data transfer/file sharing capabilities of it they're mostly worried about...

    Or perpetual lava. Or underground lava. It's called magma underground. Jeez I'm a nerd.

    Equivalent Exchange has to go.

    That's a good point, it could be a lot more expensive and difficult to make minium stones, that would balance it out a bit, imo. I thought the rock crusher ran on steam? Ofc you can convert EU to steam just as easily in Ultimate, so either way the point is still valid. Totally off topic: Hmm...

    Confessions: I never ... even though I'm told I should.

    I'm kind of that guy. I like to make things totally self-sufficient, with no outside input needed. Ofc, you need to gather a lot before you get to that point, so I usually work towards better mining tools (drills, jetpacks & power for them) then towards closed circuit systems. About superflat...

    Confessions: I never ... even though I'm told I should.

    As long as it's fun, it doesn't matter how you play! I never messed with IC2 crops/farming, or MFR animal farming stuff.

    Oh, I only looked at oak, wonder if that's an oversight or intentional?

    Internet Relay Chat! Check this out for an easy to use client. From wikipedia - Internet Relay Chat (IRC) is a protocol for live interactive Internet text messaging (chat) or synchronous conferencing. It is mainly designed for group communication in discussion forums, called channels, but also...

    A Forum Game To Pass The Time! (Corrupt A Wish)

    Granted but it's stuck in adventure mode and you can't break or place anything. I wish for world peace. (I can already see the destruction of this wish.)

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Wow I can't believe I've never thought of that or seen it mentioned anywhere. I could be getting twice the power from my wood (and my wood is already quite powerful:p) by simply putting a fabricator in the line. Edit: Slabs are only worth 370eu and 150heat, where planks are worth 750eu and...
