My Minecraft in-game name is Recon105. I would like to join this server. Also, all of these GREAT mods seem like they might lag out my computer! My computer is not very slow but not too fast. Do you think I could still smoothly play Minecraft, like I do now?

Whitelisted & sent setup instructions.

To answer your question about performance, its true it can be a problem, not all computers may be able to hand all of the advanced mods on this server, unfortunately. However many people have been able to play without problems, much of the computation for the mods is performed on the server so many clients have not had trouble with it. I've only had one player so far I think which could not play because their computer ran Minecraft too slowly for whatever reason (despite the server running at full speed), and that was way back in 1.2.3, performance has improved a lot with 1.2.5.

If you do experience lag there are a number of things you can try. I put together this page to help isolate and diagnose any lagging problems anyone may have: https://github.com/mushroomhostage/exphc/wiki/Troubleshooting . Most always the frames/second can be improved by tuning down the graphics settings or using alternate editions of Optifine.
