1. Solving the "we all love each other lets have fun COMMUNITYROCKS" aspect: No mods have not been good for us. They cause lots f stress and Drama.In post 14609, Maestro wrote:Hey guys, Rhinox is making me write this post but basically we have a cool idea!
and by "cool idea", I mean we basically made angry posts at one another and then realized we were both arguing about stupid shit
from the same side of an argument and decided on a totalitarian, reformist way to solve all the problems in theworldthread
Let's all go back to Vanilla!
and by that we mean Rhinox and I have seen the light and don't really think Mods have been a positive thing for this community
and are not going to be updating MafiaCraft anymore and will not ask Maruchan to re-pay for it next payment cycle
We can still have KMP, if you guys want we'll help you get on it and stuff.
Or we can see how many people want us to host a regular FTB pack from the Launcher. (it'd probably be 1.4.7)
but basically, all small text and weirdness aside, Rhi and I wonder if Mods have really been all that great a think for us as a group...
"mass exodus back to Vanilla anyone"?
but yeah, basically just an idea, ETL and Rhi and I are talking on IRC, where the cool cats are
come join in, yay!
2. Solving the Activity, enjoyment, and pretty much why a server for MS existed in the first place aspect: Yes modded minecraft has brought a much needed activity boost to this community, and brought many more people who had previously slowly faded back online.
3. RE: KMP. You know thats how this all started right? I was screwing around with mods, all on my own. Decided to throw up a small little server and have blake join me and invited any of you who were adventurous enough to try to install 500000 mods to join me. It was me, you, blake, rhinox, tbone just pretty much derpingaround having lots of fun no seriousbznz shit for awhile. Then we were so active (See 2 above) that it drew the attention of other minecraft lovers, and they decided they wanted to get in on that. After many failed attempts, we started releasing our own privately modded minecraft.jar and anyone with PCs joined us. This was great until we realized we have a lot of mac users, and we couldn't figure anything out so we decided to reset and go with MindCrack FTB. As soona s it became 1-click easy, MASS EXODUS TO MODDED happened, and MafiaCraft modded server was born, and became community shizzles.
I talked to Klaz, and pointed this out and he recognized the same thing is happening to KMP. I forsee it becoming MafiaCraft 3.0 (since MafiaCraft 2.0 is for the dying server i originally started), so really by offering KMP as modded alternative, you're not really doing anything but evolving it into the next mafiascum modded server.
4. Vanilla: Mentioning mass exodus back to vanilla and KMP IS AWESOME in the same post is suicide. Pick one to sponsor as your idea and go with it.
Re: Regular FTB Pack: we had that and we had just as many issues with bugs in it back then.
