This whole thread has been a ranting lynch mob with people having really exaggerated opinions on what actually happened. What happened was between mdiyo and gregorious... it was normal drama that always happens in communities where people are passionated about what they do. Lynching is not really productive and serves -no purpose- at all. Let them handle their stuff as they both were guilty of wrong doing.
Umm... no. What I did was decompile the mod and look at the source code. So I can pretty much definitively state that I do not have an exaggerated opinion on what actually happened.
No, what happened is not between mDyio and Gregorious. It *was* between them, then Gregorious decided to start crashing everyone's clients by putting in a VERY dangerous bit of code that will go off whenever ANYONE changes a recipe that he has altered. Not just mDyio... ANYONE.
SirSengir's bee trick was more appropriate than Greg's because:
* He didn't have a permanent crash bug, he just had bees explode.
* He did have a problem specifically with the Tekkit userbase insulting him and refusing to acquiesces to his request, therefore his response targeted the Tekkit userbase.
* Tekkit was, at the time, blatantly insulting him and daring him to do something. So he did. mDyio had no communication with or from Gregorious at all. Gregorious decided that, instead of talking about it, he would just crash things.
* Things changed, and
the code was removed. Gregorious did not remove the code-bomb from his mod, merely flagged it to not trigger.
Mind you, I'm not stating that SerSengir's bee trick WAS appropriate, only that it was MORE appropriate than Greg's current shenanigans.
GT's trick of mixing up users into the mix was really bad though, and you guys should go and complain him about it if you feel dissatisfied or hurt about that manner.
Been there, done that. Greg's response: STFU.
