Allowing Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders Mod

Claw I believe other wise.
If we say "No mods allowed" it gives some people more of a reason to break the rules, where as saying ONLY this mod is allowed lessens the chance of them wanting to break the rule.
Its like saying "Don't eat the chocolate" you are likely to want to eat them, but if you say "Don't eat the chocolates apart from the caramel ones" you are likely to eat just the caramel ones but leave the rest.
Therefore the rule "No mods apart from Optifine" is a good rule and far more intelligent than you seem to see it.
On the point of the shaders mod, Optifine helps players including staff to have a more enjoyable time on the server, even if you don't have it. If you playing with your friends and they are lagging its not the best experience but as we allow it it reduces the lag people get giving everyone a much better time on the server; where as the shaders mod does not. It might even cause a player more lag (I'm not sure as I've never used it) thus making the whole optifine mod less effective.
