Hey, I'd like to shed some light on this. I put up that code after I started working in 1.4. I made it a proof of concept, which always showed the message instead of finding a modpack proper, but the issue is I forgot to commit it, so it got merged as I was making the beta update, and compiled just fine in 1.3.2
TECHNIC WILL NOT BE INVOLVED. They are up to date with our permissions. Our issue is with moron packs that blatantly violate our modpack policy. That change was approved by Alblaka, and look, it's at least better than destroying your world.
