Is disabled mean the blocks are useless or it removed from the world?

They are useless / can't be created / can't be used / can't be picked up.

But in the case of Condensers I physically removed all 5,500+ of them from the game world using a command.

Yeah at first i was little shocked ye took out condensers, but they kinda ruined tekkit for me. They made the game far too easy.

I understand that condensors were creating quite a bit of lag on the server. But may I please ask for them to be re-enabled? I think I speak for MANY people when I say that they were CRUCIAL in the creation of factories and RM. Its nearly impossible to do these things without condensors. My solution to the lag would be to simply wipe out all the condensors in the world say every two weeks or once a month. This would eliminate the excess, abandoned, lag causing condensors left randomly throughout the world, yet still allow people to benefit from their use. No more 5000 sum condensors sitting useless all over the place.

Also (and I dont want to be pushing my luck here) could you please re-enable the ring of arcana and the destruction catalyst? Now I get it, the ring of arcana could be used to spam people with lightning, snow, fire, trees, and much else. BUT! Its benefits far outweigh its disbenefits. Without the ring of arcana, dark, red, and gem armors are practically useless! I have gem armor, and it is very disappointing to put SO MUCH WORK into something and not be able to use it efficiently. Why cant people found to be griefing with these items just be banned, and those found to have been griefed just have their chunks rb'd or be otherwise compensated (RM my personal favorite :) ). The same goes for the Destruction Catalyst. This was crucial for me in creating my very large underground bases. Without a D-Catalyst a job of the same magnitude would take a VERY long time. This tool can also be used for griefing, but so can just about anything else! Those griefing with this item SHOULD BE BANNED. Those griefed with it should be recompensated. The solution to destructive items in game is not to ban them, please just try to regulate them more. (If you dont have enough man-power on staff then just reward commoners for reporting griefers)

Thanks very much! (I would say priority is to re-enable condensors)

Doctor, Stuff is only being removed because it can be used to grief or lags the server.

We will not be re-enabling condensers. At most we will provide a single condenser to players and this is still being discussed.

Condensers are just abused too much. The problem is not the abandoned ones. Those are in unloaded chunks and are not active. The issue is people with 100+ condensers at their own base working 24.7 filling pipes with entities. These are the things destroying performance.

I know it sucks, trust me I know, I've heard so many people tell me already, but this had to be done if we want a playable server. I mean really do you want a server that is so laggy you can't even play or do you want to give up condensers?
