That's just your opinion. Legally, my code itself is not derivative unless I copy-paste a class from Minecraft or Forge source code and modify it. Any code I write myself from scratch (which is most of my mod) is 100% mine to license. It simply references other classes, which is not "derivative." The ideas themselves that are based on Minecraft or that only apply to Minecraft are derivative, but those fall under patent laws and not copyright laws.
You say 'just your opinion' as if that is an invalidating criterion, and not an equal to your own position. You are an example of the cancer which is the modern 'popular' modding scene - the copyright/license crazy, self-important, pompous tin gods. When I started modding, the idea of putting a license on your mod, or any sort of copyright beyond 'don't claim you made it if you didn't' was utterly ridiculous. The attitude was 'hey, check out this cool thing I made', not 'hey, check out how awesome I am for making this thing, i r professional software developer because I can 'license' it!'. Disgusting.

All I can say is that you're the kind of person that makes me hate the Minecraft modding community. I open-source all my mods, but that doesn't mean I want people blatantly disrespecting me and my code. I treat it as any other software project, as it should be treated.
I think I used a modified version of GPL. The modification just specified that it could not be distributed on Technic Platform because of a personal objection to their respect towards modders.
Would you share the license you used? I'd like to inform myself.

Curse PremiumI don't know if I have the license file anymore. It was literally GPL with a statement about Technic appended onto the bottom.
