[April fools] 1.8 server update news!

[Tommyand]

Please tell me this is a joke

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.
