Thanks for this. I think I was too lazy to report this if it was the same bug I had crashing on the server start up. I noticed more and more mods crashing on Dedicated servers. I thought they made it so that was next to impossible but maybe forge adding stuff that can cause this now. I seen so many mods in 1.7.10 causing server crashes but not client.
Client has functions/can ignore a few things that servers cannot handle... i learned this early on when i started to build packs and run everything though a local server before i put it on the live one.. it's also good to think that if you have a problem someone else around the world is also having the same problem. I wanted the mod on our server cause i thought it would be useful and everyone would appreciate it.. and even tho i can't read java, i went mod by mod til i figured it out and reported the problem so it can get fixed.
nothing is impossible. just got to put alittle work into it.
