When the server had a good amount of people in it, I asked if they thought EE being removed had made their experience significantly better or more rewarding.
nobody said yes.
I asked if anyone thought EE was just a big, overpowered, broken mess.
nobody said yes.
You should change the poll soon to see what the players think about EE. Not that I think it'll do anything, you're extremely stubborn about your position on this regardless of any argument we give.
also the ideal mod would change an aspect of how the game works to allow for a different gameplay style, obviously in vanilla minecraft, trading and mining are the ideal (and ONLY) ways to acquire things. Mining gets repetitive and tedious. Trading requires interaction with other humans, and thus, chance for error increases, fairness can be completely done away with, and you are forced to trust more people. I'm probably just paranoid, though.
