Mevans i personally feel like you should do what you think is best for your mod keep it in 1.7.10 and ignore the haters, The fact that these people are driving you bonkers about this is kind of cruel in a way,

If this were a dichtonomous choice with no other options, I'd say no. The benefits to actually updating is piddling, and we wouldn't be able to keep up with the massive amounts of updates anyways. Newer players would be here for a short while before moving on to the new updates. Besides, 1.7.10 has some great company in the form of amazing mods. If we really wanted to get new members, maybe we should focus on them first. Get included in a fantasy mod pack, things like that.

TL;DR: If we want new members, we should try to reach out to other popular 1.7.10 mods that haven't made the jump. Perhaps try to join a popular fantasy modpack.
