    The point of bees?

    I like bees, they're so Yellow and black, and yellow And black and yellow (example of a bad haiku according to H2G2) The appeal of bees as means to an end is getting a replenishable supply of certain rare resources. But the main appeal is bees as an end in themselves. Collecting hives...

    Offer to support modders (with money).

    I don't pay Mojang a monthly fee, true, but I probably would if they asked for it for continued development. Notch has also been flattred 1153 times, so many don't seem to agree with my sentiment that it's better to support those who need it more. You say "my arguments don't stand up", but you...

    Offer to support modders (with money).

    Enigmius1, you make some good points, but also some I want to address. Ads aren't always targeted to your interests. They're targeted to whatever pays for the advertiser. When most who will see the ads are kids without a credit card, spyware and ad-jacking trojans are about the only ways to...

    Modpack with only open source mods?

    OGL? What's that, to me that's WotC's open gaming license and surely no one uses that for software. Of course, licence notwithstanding, I'm not about to start a competing fork of Morph or any other open source mod. As Paul says, everything is permitted but not everything is beneficial. And...

    Modpack with only open source mods?

    Did you go anywhere with this, Tylor? I don't think it sounds elitist at all, if anything it's the other way around ;) It's also not true that most mods are closed. I was surprised at how many great mods turn out to be open source but not advertised as such. Open source mods open up...
