Eh...I do not understand why people are so hung up on what the FTB team is doing to their mod packs.
For me, I just get the mods I want to play with and play with my own compilation of mods.
Maybe because some people do go to FTB to play their packs?

No, because FTB is letting the next generation of players know what's OK and what isn't. I may end up seeing if the PT is up for making our own pack distribution system.

You re-read that too. I stated that.

I'm sorry you feel that way. I'm sorry you feel like you are going to loose out because the RF API is being used. It's the modders who decide to make their works plug and play, and even though you recognize this, you are still wanting to jump ship.

I do not fear the death of complex mods. Even after the total and complete melt down between players of two different mods that the developers got into a spat in (one complex, one not), those mods are still going.
Other complex mods are being made/updated (at a breakneck pace I might add) and being thought up/suggested. There are many packs that use RF but still make you think/work for things (hello Crash Landing)

I am sorry that you don't seem to be able to see that. I'm sorry that you will deny yourself the use of FTB because you don't like the way some modders are using the RP API.

I'm sorry.

You realize that a lot of the Minecraft community are minors, and that most don't have the maturity to see that it wasn't a competition? I mean, I know a lot of people that we interact with here are mature enough to understand that, but... You, as a popular mod dev, should really know by now to ignore 90%(or more) in suggestions, bug reports, and general understanding of any topic from this community.
This person in question is another mod developer, or at least claims to be, and he is older than I am.

1. How does FTB have any authority over MC players?
2. The hell is PT?
1. they don't directly, just leading by example and such.
2. Phoenix Team, the people who manage PhoenixConfig and stuff.

You're failing to realize my point too. I am not doing it because of the API, I am doing it because of the implementation of the API. Also I frankly couldn't care less about official FTB packs, because I can now make packs more to my liking faster, whereas FTB takes time to make packs that may not be to my liking. I am only here for the community, and with the current shit I put up with, I may be leaving that as well.

I think at this point we're running in circles with this discussion, regardless of what side you're on.

1. I can't be bothered to argue about this.
2. The hell is PheonixConfig, I looked it up and it seems like some sort of terrain generation mod?

Exactly my earlier point.

*tosses trajing a cookie*

Man, look. You do what you need to do, I've heard it's easy as hell now to make your own packs, especially with your config experience, and that's great!
But why don't you make one, and put it up as a 3rd party pack here? Why abandon all hope, ye who download FTB?

*edit* OHSHI... The drama killer is back! I'm sorry Jaded! Don't squash me! I thought the threads were sanctioned!

It's both parties at fault right now. Neither is willing to fully read, and neither is willing to attempt to see the other's side. It would be best to end this discussion now before someone pisses the mods off.

Yes, you did, but you also implied that you were done... *resists urge to pose a meme*

Yeah I want to move this discussion to something else, I am kind of tired of hearing people arguing about it. This is a recent events discussion, why don't we talk about MC 1.8

But no one is forced to. If one doesn't see eye to eye with the FTB team's view on the mod pack compilation, one can choose to either not play with it or give suggestions to it, where it is up to the FTB's team to decide what to do.

What I'm not getting is the stance of one saying that they aren't going to support FTB anymore because they have a different view on their packs compared to another individual? Can't they just make a mod pack which suits their vision and share it with the populace?

Try not to view it in a negative light. Just take it so that FTB is introducing new vMC players into mMC. Once they are comfortable enough with mods, they might start looking else where. They might even come across your pack and find it more to their taste compared to FTB's.

Zero is not a minor, from what I can tell from his voice.
This person in question is another mod developer
For anyone wondering; he worked on Universal Electricity, and some other one.

<3 pls

BTW, that sentence doesn't make sense because "ye" is pronounced and basically = "the" :p
