I am slightly confused OP. Why aren't you yelling at BdoubleO and Generikb ? Attack of the B-Team mods were picked by them. Seems a bit silly to yell at the guys who compiled it for them.
 
Its one of the trickiest parts of third party packs (not sure if Technic calls them that). When you are building a pack based on what a specific person or persons has asked for you can't just pull mods, or change configs however you want. The Technic team from what I understand had input in the pack but they did not design the pack by themselves. They gave the B-Team what they asked for. If thats not to your taste that probably means you have different taste then BdoubleO and GenerikB.  It does not however make the Technic pack creators bad pack creators. The fact that they gave the B-team exactly what they asked for and did it with as much stability and lack of bugs as they could says they are good pack creators. If I am in fact incorrect and the Technic team designed this from the ground up by themselves, your dislike of the balance/mod choices still doesn't translate into it being a bad pack or the team being bad pack creators. It just means the pack is not to your taste. Thats why there are so many different packs. A single pack cannot please everyone. 

I think some, if not all, of the FTB members fart. Sometime before, or during, the merge of Curse. I'm quite sure of this fact.
 
Who agrees with me?

you might have to be trifle less obtuse.
"Saying that throwing punches is childish and beneath me is, in effect, throwing a punch at everyone else that you feel DID throw punches."
This is a self-referencing contradiction, and actually funny as hell when you consider that you are referring to yourself as childish and beneath yourself.
 
Man, I miss the days back when I used to be able to say that kind of thing with a straight face... hypocrisy is so much easier and more fun than self awareness .
 
"Anyone that says the word 'jerk' is a total jerk, unlike me."
 
you are quite welcome to throw punches at me if you feel the need to do so. I enjoy it. Call me a masochist.
 
seriously, though I am quite interested to see what the devs have to say about this entire thread in the morning. It should be highly amusing.

Now this is just silly shit.  This is a discussion board, you posted an opinion, people who disagree with that opinion will make posts disagreeing with it, and people who agree will make posts agreeing with it, and that's how this shit all works.  Now, you posted "I don't like the way Technic made Thing" on the official Technic boards- there are going to be more people disagreeing than agreeing with you.  Certainly, I'm gonna come in here and tell you I think you're wrong, that everything went into the pack the way it did for a reason and I'm going to tell you what those reasons were.  If you want to define that as kool-aid drinking, that's your prerogative I guess (but it's dumb), but you don't get to demand that only posts in support can post in here- that's not how message boards work.  Hell, that's now how LIFE works.   The issue isn't that we need to go back and re-read your OP, the issue is that you need to uncurl yourself from the fetal position and respond to some portion of the conversation that's occurred since the OP, in some manner, instead of just writing it off as "kool-aid".  
 
At the very least you need to ask yourself exactly what you want from this conversation, because at this moment, it seems what you wanted was a hugbox, and that reflects very poorly on your character.

It really sounds like you want a mod pack with similar mods, but a different config set. Which would mean you probably ought to change it yourself. Bugs happen. Many bugs just don't get noticed until large numbers of people test. It is very difficult for any testing team to think of every possible thing that could go wrong and test it.  With playing almost any pack if you want to avoid the intial rush of bug fixes you should probably wait a few versions. And then there will probably still be bugs. There are bugs in vanilla. Mods just add more.
 
The point of a third-party pack is to cater to a specific person's or group's taste If you don't care for their taste you should take it up with them.
 
Offering solutions to the things you feel are unbalanced would be constructive criticism. Saying something is wrong without offering an alternative suggestion is not constructive criticism and it is not "discussion". Stating that your opinion is the only correct opinion and that everyone else is "misinterpreting" or "misunderstanding" what you mean is not a discussion. Its a soap box for complaining.  Most of the posters in this thread seem to have been trying to have the discussion you say you want. You just keep ignoring opinions that differ from your own. That comes across as being complaining not discussing in my opinion.  
 
I think you might best be served by making the pack you want as opposed to trying to get existing packs changed to suit you. *shrug*
