[MinerAp Community Vote] Allowing or disallowing the use of "control packs" or modifying the behaviour of vanilla controls
Author Summary
Post Body

Hello everyone.

We're currently working through the new rules in general, and some times we get to a subject where there are arguments for both sides. So, as a community run server, you get to vote on the outcome which will determine the final draft of the server rules

Problem

Using a plugin often referred to as "controlpack", it's possible to use features like one-touch sprinting and binding keys to look behind you that are normally not possible. I can confirm that there is a notable advantage given in PVP.

The argument

It affects PVP and is a disadvantage to those who don't use it/can't use it/refuse to use it.

The counter argument

We can allow it specifically as a way to configure your client to better interact with your environment. There is at least one legitimate reason that a person would need something like this (think disability or similiar). We could also include this in the TechnicLauncher pack to ensure that it's easily available as part of our default client.

Where you come in

I'd love to hear your responses below in the comments. I'll be checking back regularly to reply to you guys, and thanks so much for your insights :)

Cheerio,
-Stab
