[April fools] 1.8 server update news! - Nuuppanaani - 04-01-2015
As most of you know, we have been working on the 1.8 update for some time now. It is coming along really nicely, however the Staff team has decided we need to enhance the redstoning experience for the next update. So we have decided we will be adding some minor modifications to the server. These modifications include Project Red and Computercraft, possibly a few more. We are aware this might make some people upset but we are sure it will improve the community on the long run.
This means we require the modifications to be added to each of the clients that wish to connect. We are expecting everyone to install the modifications by themselves and do not plan on supplying our own client.
Thank you for reading, we hope you're as excited for the update as we are.
EDIT: This has been my attempt to pretend that I don't hate fun. We are not planning to change to install any mods that would alter how redstone functions, althought I'd love an official, seperate modded server with both creative w/ WorldEdit and survival gamemodes ;3

Please tell me this is a joke

Whaaaa??????
RE: 1.8 server update news! - slugdude - 04-01-2015
This is a bad idea because
1. It will divide the community between Redstone purists and those who want it
2. Many members will leave an already relatively small community
3. Work put in by members to make things smaller/faster will be rendered useless and outdated
"If it ain't broke, don't fix it"
This is how I feel about this. The current situation with Redstone isn't broken. Why fix it?

Why not redmod :^)
I can't even remember what the cheating redstone mod was called. I've been gone for too long.
RE: 1.8 server update news! - tokumei - 04-01-2015
I am all for it. If you don't want to use it, you don't have to; plain redstone is still there for your disposal.

This is so funny.......
RE: 1.8 server update news! - Jallen - 04-01-2015
Couldn't you just allow us to use command blocks? That'd be a much smarter solution if you think about it objectively.

RE: 1.8 server update news! - LordDecapo - 04-01-2015
Eh, I don't mind this if it's not a joke.. could divide the community similar to how pistons/pistonless stuff does.
but it would be fun to play with.... who wants to see how small and fast I can get an IizR15 with redpower?! Lolol
RE: 1.8 server update news! - Chibill - 04-01-2015

Is it an april fools joke?
However much this may be nice for people, in my case, dealing with signal strength issues, or whatever, it seems like it will cause more "Lag" on both the client side and the server side. Especially for those whom already have problems with Minecraft not working well on their computers. However, this also gives the option to easily and simply install Optifine along with the other forge mods that will be used.
I'm rather split down the middle by this decision. As such, seeing as it was posted on April Fools, I'm going to treat it like a joke for the moment, seeing how I haven't seen anything going on in the thread for the development news. And this will change things, possibly in a bad way, especially since I don't think there are any developed servers available for download, (that haven't been DMCA'd,) that allow bukkit plugins and forge mods on the same server.
Therefore, this must be a joke, unless proved otherwise. If proved real, I do have my issues about doing this listed above. Have fun!
EDIT: Yup, it was a joke. Good one, Nuup.
