    Ok now alot of us have mixed feelings about V+ because of the small active player count and attention needed to keep it running. Its a fun pack with a focus on the players and not progression in tech and magic mods. With most packs players will vanish into a hole on day one running from all things unholy on their tail, and days later emerging with bound armor and the most OP weapon in the game. With V+, players are out and about with other players and working together to have a fun time and build cool stuffs and things. That feeling is a desired feeling that is rarely achieved. The server is getting laggy for unknown reasons in certain places. We have been requesting a map reset to fix the lag and and start afresh. Another option that we have been discussing is the creation of a new pack. Im not sure how many other players on this network have experience making packs, so if this is a feasible option then I would like to volunteer. The idea is another "light pack" but yet not quite that light if you know what i mean. The weapons/armor/tools in the pack are quite lacking with the best thing being plain diamond gear which is kinda boring to be honest. Now we know that this was the idea when slowpoke was making it but its nigh unto impossible to make a effective sorting system without making a 32x32 space full of hoppers. People have been digging 64x64 holes down to bedrock one painful block by one painful block at a time just using a diamond pick, a beacon and some epic bacon. A hammer would make that task so much easier. At least 70% on the players would be willing for this change, and as usual those players will ( hopefully)
    come by to say just that. If everybody is Ok and willing for this change please suggest mods and we will hopefully come to an agreement. :D And now we look to you good players of MYM to see what you will say!

    Apologies what I meant was custom enchants. Enchanting plus isn't broken, it only allows you choose what enchantment you want but for a higher cost. And the goal isn't necessarily going for a vanilla feel but more for a "old" if you know what I mean. But the theme is also up for debate!

    When new players join our Vanilla+ server and ask what the modpack's theme is, I usually describe it as an agricultural litepack that adds additional building materials, advanced farming, and more of a challenge than Vanilla. The Vanilla+ server is very community oriented, with more than half of active players living in our player built and managed town. We work together on large communal projects, which helps with player retention. In a potential replacement pack for Vanilla+, I would like to see the elements that make the server community based retained.

    This means that mods that make individual players powerful enough to handle everything themselves should not be included. Over powered armor, weapons, and tools have no place. We need mods that encourage or even force players to work together to progress. The old Hexxit modpack included a ton of exploration, questing, and fighting mods that made setting off alone into the world extremely challenging. A combination of that aspect with Vanilla+ would be perfect. Limit the types of armor and weapons that players can craft or obtain, but infuse the world with danger, and you will be left with an extremely challenging server that forces players to work together to survive.

    From what i understand V+ is there as a starting ground for new players and people who have the lower end of the specs grade. The problem with something like V+ is that its a niche market. Unlike Infinity which has advertisement everywhere, V+ is more of a hidden gem, i would prefer to get rid of Pixelmon before theis tbh

    well vanilla + is not necessarily for new player because its on hard i died probably 10 times in the beginning and infinity is so dang easy i would suggest that mod over vanilla + any day.vanilla + is more for people who do not want to do tech or magic but farming and decorating and being a good part in the community.[DOUBLEPOST=1454812859][/DOUBLEPOST]also the mym owners are not updating the pack the last update for vanilla + was in this December
    so if the sever owners are unwilling to update the pack there is no reason to have it. vanilla + on this sever is 1.7.10 wile on other severs its
    1.8.1 so for the sever owners saying they dont want to do more with it because there are no more updates is a bunch of ****

    The recommended version (to which we usually stick) on the FTB Launcher is 1.0.0. But we can try 1.1.0 and see if that solves the issue.

    HQM? Guessing your going to do all the quests? Your also going to get permission for every mod to be used in the pack? Archimedes ships probably won't happen, believe it had gotten disabled on other modpack for causing issues. Just curious, are you just throwing mods together that seem cool for the pack or are you actually checking their compatibility together and f they fit your pack theme, since you do want a lite pack like V+. ( This isn't supposed to sound rude, just pointing out some things I wanted to know that might help )

    Hqm is not necessarily for quests alone but also could be used for tutorials or trading items. The "quests" would be edited by me but all everyone can suggest them. As I said, that was a rough draft, the list is guaranteed to be changed because of lack of permission or problem that it causes. The next step would be to get permission to use them. As of the time of this post they are but an idea up for discussion. Archamedes ships has caused problems in 1.6 but has been polished for 1.7, and it has been known to lag the server when large ships are made but that is configurable of course (the size of ship I mean).
