My vote: Chests should be 3x3 by default, not alterable by config
My question: I get that you have your preference, and I really might not even mind that much if that was default, but why no config? Honestly. Let people disagree with you, and with a config, they can have theirs, you can have yours, and everyone is happy. Why in the universe would anyone vote no config? It leads to more flamewars, more hate on both sides, and less compromise. Heck, I'd even be fine, if slightly miffed, with a 1 slot Ender Chest by default, as long as I could configure it to get my good ol' 3x9 back. People that enforce their playstyles on others are asshats. Don't be an asshat.
Then, CB, why not provide players with a choice? It doesn't seem unreasonable. Because, you're right! Your Ender Chests are for item transport. But Jeb's serve a different purpose; they're mainly for storage of vital items. So why not let players have both? I expected this kind of tyranny from Ecu, but not from you. Next we know, you'll be forcing NEI to be incompatible with mods you don't like. It's a slippery slope, man.
My question is: why disable vanilla Enderchests? I mean, nerfing yours, while not the decision I would have made, is tolerable. But why get rid of Jeb's version?
Hi, I'm working on the server thing. At some point, probably next month, I'll copy the files from our private server, build a nice spawn area, and make a public server on Exodus hosting. It will be a 12-slot, 24/7 server, named JSTRCraft. And it will have Tekkit plus Forestry and ComputerCraft 1.41.
Edit: the configs for Forestry will be available for download.
I'm not expecting all existing mods to immediately change over to add maintenance and such, what I'm asking is for the community as a whole to take a step back and stop duplicating BuildCraft or RedPower designs. Instead, try find a solution that requires SOMETHING that requires player interaction.. so that automation is more balanced. It'd be nice if some of the big mods took this to heart, of course, as it'd help encourage others.
I'm not expecting you to change your opinion to immediately consider more than just your own ego sense of balance, what I'm asking is for the community as a whole to take a step back and conclude you're not worth listening to, and instead focus on creating new, non tedious gameplay that adds enjoyment and fun. It'd be nice if some of the big mods took this to heart, of course, as it'd help encourage others.
FTFY
EDIT: Once more, nobody's asking you to increase storage in ES. We're just asking you not to remove it, or to keep it configurable, as it is now, because there are uses for it that you didn't foresee.
Schmender Chests will be so much better anyway. (name is a WIP though)
^THIS. I support this 100%. Minecraft with natural disasters? AWESOME! (probably only for difficulties Hard and Hardcore)
And yet another person stating that it's all about playstyles. Thank you WereWaffle.
Config files, player choice, if this guy were a modder, he'd be successful.
So, you want automation to not be better than doing it manually. But then, what's the point?
If automation is no better than doing it manually, why even have automation? Automation is supposed to be much, much better than doing it manually.
Also, I'll be making a "Schmender Chests" mod at some point to supercede your nerfed Ender Storage.
EDIT: And, yeah, it's still your definition of balance.

P.S. the weekly build is more a "weekly-ish" build. Just FYI.
PPS. I'm so stealing that banner.
