I heard somewhere that updating to 1.5 would destroy our 1.4.7 worlds? Is this true?

I haven't heard this anywhere. Care to share your source?

What I did hear was King Lemming jokingly (!) state something along the lines of wanting to intentionally break old worlds because it would make the porting process so much easier.

It's an offhand comment made by KingLemming in one of Direwolf20's videos. To me he didn't seem 100% serious and was maybe just jesting but I don't know. Until 1.5 comes out, nobody will know.

but even going from what king lemming said, it shows how hard it is for the mod devs to update their mods

It shouldn't destroy worlds, but yes - it would be much easier to update if we knew the worlds were all getting destroyed. Thermal Expansion has a lot of version checked patch-in-place code to try and keep things up to date as much as possible. At this point, there's quite a lot of it. I suspect I'm going to remove all of the patches for versions prior to 2.2.0 shortly.

I wouldn't be too upset if you did make it break worlds tbh :p
"Oh you're really far ahead of the newbs on a certain server? NOT ANYMORE! Muahahahahaha thanks KL!"

I wonder what the percentage of people that keep their worlds from one major update to the next and how many of us restart.

I had tekkit then early ftb beta, 2 worlds that I built a LOT of stuff in but considered them mostly "test" worlds.

When RP2 was finally released, I started my current world and have been working on it ever since. I even imported my old 2 yrs+ vanilla world as a mystcraft age.

What's the meaning of this "restart" thing??

I would be for a restart. That way I can plow through as much of TC3 as possible then really get cooking on Railcraft. Right now I am lacking in the ore department.

I know how you feel, luckily my 4 year old dell laptop gives me 15fps with optifine. On the flip side it has made all my other games that render at 25+ look silky smooth
