I am thinking a full forge log might be able to shed light on the culprit.
OK, I got pinged to this thread like four times. Is someone AGAIN claiming I have DRM in my mods? If so, who am I going to turn into my next chew toy?
Some mod decided to throw a hissy fit at mods including DRM. Apparently, someone thinks you have DRM in your mods, but that's the issue: we don't know who.
My strong suspicion is on those additions made by "a friend of the admin", as I doubt the developers of any mod major enough to be in FTB packs to be this appallingly stupid.
Not only is whatever responsible trying to reignite this idiotic flame war again - and I am genuinely angry about the fact some asshat out there feels entitled and moralistic enough to drag me into this issue for the fifth time - but it is doing so in a way so comically malicious and deceptive that it itself comes far closer to being DRM than any mod, and is flagrantly in violation of the rules Mojang have set against malicious code.
@Prodrone:
Send me just the mods made by the friend of your admin. Do not send me the entire pack, as I have most of the same mods and can rule them out from experience. My initial suspicion - that of the author believing "requiring modpacks to have permission = DRM" - a sentiment I have seen before - appears inconsistent with the mods triggering the system, as Mo'Creatures and ThaumCraft have the most restrictive pack perms I know yet do not appear. No, this one appears personal.

After this gets solved, we have to think,
Why the FUCK would someone do this?

It's funny because a mod that throws a hissy fit because DRM and refuses to load contains DRM itself. Which means it can't be used with itself. Once again, DRM is dumb.
Espically since the full log logs at finest so we get the whole
Code:
2014-06-13 14:49:10 [FINEST] [JABBA] Sending event FMLPostInitializationEvent to mod JABBA
2014-06-13 14:49:10 [FINEST] [JABBA] Sent event FMLPostInitializationEvent to mod JABBAAlso, Mojang's EULA means absolutely nothing in practice (apart from causing drama), has not been tested, and nobody is even sure if it's legal or not for them to restrict other peoples' rights like that in relation to Minecraft.
is this a Mojang error report I wonder? Or is that line specifically added by some mod? Dying to know what happens next.
Reading OP's posts makes me suspicious of him completely. It just doesn't seem legit. I doubt OP ever returns. If OP submits the proper logs and mods lists to Reika & immibis, MAYBE we'll get to bottom of this. Outside of that this seems like someone trying to start a witch hunt.
The lack of a log is making this more and more suspicious. I smell an attempt to start Drama.
We have enough of that already, what with Eloraam's return.
This guy is at least definitely new but almost certainly a troll. The whole admin thing seems like a waste of modders time. The DRM will have only appeared when they added a mod which they would have noticed doing. Please can the thread be locked and someone ip this person to try and find out whether they have any other accounts on the forums. If they do they are trolling.
see.. brand new member starts a thread known to be drama bait, claims he doesnt know what drm is (who the heck doesnt know what that is after the last few years major gaming news?) .. le sigh
reika.. feel free to chew on my arm a bit if it helps you. ^^
