the only way you could do this lazier is by leaving an empty post.
There are no rules on how to present your modpack, but by not giving a link nor a proper description you discourage people from trying yours

That is not constructive criticism, that is an insult.
 
the fly gene's difficulty is 100x harder than killing a bat, because killing a bat (or other mob that flies) involves a completely different process and result than using genetics to achieve it. Yes, shapeshifting is a bit 'easy mode' (and not a mod I would personally have included in the pack) but, while detailing what YOU see to be an egregious flaw, and why, in hopes of improving things is NOT what you did... you just told the developers off, called them incompetent to design a pack, and implied that they never thought the pack through.
 
There are ALWAYS unintended loopholes when you build a mod pack. that's why some of the most popular have gone through dozens of iterations, and in fact THIS particular pack is ALSO going through those same iterations as well. You are in essence, looking at a bolt on an assembly line, and saying "That's a sucky car, you guys build bad cars."
 
I strongly support people providing constructive criticism, but you are not critiquing (which generally requires you to suggest a solution) you are simply bitching.
 
about the comparison with Hexxit-
 
Frankly, I despise the hexxit pack. I think it completely twists the whole concept of 'minecraft' into an unfamiliar hack and slash genre that I simply do. not. enjoy.
However.
 
I will not at any time claim that the guys that MADE the hexxit pack didn't know what they were doing, or didn't think things through.
Obviously, they put out a pack that some (admittedly munchkin) players really enjoy. It was a professionally-done pack, and after a LOT of iterations it is in a really great balanced state... if you enjoy that sort of thing.
 
 Based on the traffic on THIS board, obviously some people consider THIS to be a great modpack as well. Do them the courtesy of assuming that they had something in mind... and while you may not be intellectually capable of 'getting' the pack, or of the difference between common English homophones such as 'peak', your unsubstantiated opining upon the personal abilities of the developers is, in fact, not, by definition, 'constructive criticism'.
 
In short, trying to suggest that you are in some way contributing to a pack by pointlessly insulting it's creators is pretty darned shallow.
