I would prefer my modpacks would not have malware. I've stated my opinion on this, I'll state it again. I'm on mDiyo's side on this. Tinkers Construct is a way more creative mod, and tons of fun to use. Yes, GT was fun to use, in 1.4, now it is Nerf Heaven. I say heaven because I will not be using it anymore. I do not want to support a modder if I feel he is... let's just save the mods some time, I don't like the guy. Greg is an immature, child, who just wants to make TFC. If I wanted TFC, I would play TFC. GT was a good mod that added complexity to factories, now, it is not. It is a pile of garbage waiting to nerf more stuff. Most of his nerfs now don't even affect him, he just wants to add more, useless garbage (file, saw). Someone on the IC2 forums said, "stone tools are far overpowered". I do not understand this, they are one of the earliest tiers of tools, and can only mine iron and coal. The wood, stone, and iron nerfs are completely ridiculous. I will not be using GregTech for a while since this incident. mDiyo, keep up the good work.
Edit: I forgot to say, GregTech is constantly changing other mods in huge amounts, along with Vanilla. Which is why it is completely hypocritical for Greg to throw a fit over mDiyo changing one of the key aspects of Vanilla mineCraft.
