Simple Fix GregoriusT.
Make a small mod addon with GT letting us change just that any and all recipes we want. Then offer a pastebin of changes that users can make on their own and nothing to do with GT but rather then the open ability for users to modify their own game for their own Enjoyment. This means GT has nothing to do with it and it's 100% user done. If this causes issues still, then clearly the developers have really lost the whole concept of making mods in the first place.
Greg is balancing the mods for people who use more then 1 mod and who actually want a challenge. Stepping on this just proves you guys are nothing but nasty and yes I will say it selfish people. Just because someone makes a mod and gives it out free does not mean they can't be selfish. A lot them get pleasure out of what they do and even fame. No way you can tell me otherwise as I know the feeling running a larger server. But I'm more about a open modding community. Every mod should have an option to enable and disable a function. FFS you guys got bored of vanilla Minecraft or felt it was not perfect or was missing elements. So you made a mod.... But now someone felt like mod a and mod b had issues so he made a small fix that is 100% optional... BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT Nope we gotta be some evil sounding corporation and prevent anyone from doing anything.
Notch is at fault he should have added better rules when it came to doing mods. The guy is open to everyone and pretty much allowed everyone to profit even off his game and yet some how we turned into douche bags.
