Going through Thaum's not so intuitive manner research progression.

For example, blowing through resources doing researches because I don't know what it wants. Also.. having to learn all the crap about bees and other odds/ends to finally learn about wands... Does anyone really think they could use Thaum without "cheating", referencing the ftbwiki.org?

I have. Would I do TC3 research again? No.

But more to the point, it's much better in TC4, at least in my opinion. The item sink is gone and it just feels better.

Yep. I still pride myself for being nuts though :p[DOUBLEPOST=1383874754][/DOUBLEPOST]
I think that isn't in the 1.4 packs though. Better check quickly.
Not to be a PITA but if you're still playing 1.4, you really haven't felt the sting of current GT. I hate the mod, but with my current knowledge of modded MC, even I could conquer 1.4 GT fairly quickly. The grind you feel in that version has been replaced with soul tapping minutiae in 1.6.

But I can understand why you're on that version. It's difficult to leave an existing world.

Tartarus.. I mean at work. Same thing really.
How the same people feel they need to constantly vomit opinions into every thread about a mod they have no intention of playing, making exactly the same arguments again and again thinking stuff gonna change...

Also I can't figure out why everyone's in love with the quartz grindstone from AE.
you just sit there.
clicking it.
constantly.

Well, it's easy to make so you can use it very early into your game to get more use out of the resources you dig up. Not useful for very long, though.

I've tried it. I've also tried multiple ones, hitting them in turn.
I can get more resources in the same time with a bit of extra spelunking and a vanilla furnace.
Unless I've got steel-machine-frames enabled that first trip gives more than enough for a few hobbyist engines and a pulveriser

Not everyone delves right in and finds all that gold etc right off, or has those particular mods installed etc. Like I said, very limited use IMO.

The grindstone's purpose is likely the same as all those wrenches out there: AE might be used in a pack/by itself without another mod that can grind stuff up. That way it doesn't depend on another mod being there.

You know you can chose to stop using updated versions of MC at anytime. It has the same effect as if they as you wished it just left it alone.
But then all the mod authors leave their mods alone, too.

"Man I hate that thing that you like because mine is slightly better"

Or "Man I hate that thing that you like/have because mine is inferior"
Or "Man I hate that thing that you like because to many people like it also"
Or "Man I hate that thing that you like because I have a limited understanding of the subject and refuse to learn more then the generalizations others have made about it. I in fact refuse to form my own opinion on the matter"

I hate when I spend days working on JVM arguments then post an iteration as release that's missing arguments or has the wrong values because I'm tired and not paying attention to what I'm copypastaing when making a huge update to a sticky thread while simultaneously trying to download mod updates and talk to mod authors about bug fixes during a conversation on teamspeak with another FTB team member.

I also hate run on sentences. :p

Having no Coin of fortune from Xenos reliquary in 1.5.2 Unleashed. Finding Dartcrafts magnet glove as alternative! Discovering that it not only attracts loot and xp, but also Iron golems.. Ehm why? Used to use golems to guard certain areas.
