I'm not sure what the equivalent setting in PJ 1.6 is but in PJ 1.7 there is a VI Refresh Rate setting which when set to 3000 (default 1500) makes loading times slightly faster. Is this allowed or not?

Don't think anyone has ever brought that up before and now for me personally I think not only should changing that number not be allowed, I think not allowing 1.7 should be the step forward here (I don't think this option is in 1.6). Will see what the other mods say.

Yeah I haven't been able to find anything for it in 1.6. Banning 1.7 seems appropriate cause there's not really any way to check whether someone is using it or not
