I understand a lot of people like forge and MPM, but find it a bit to laggy. They wish to have something to make it less laggy, such as optifine. Well, that's quite hard to get without some dumb stuff. So I'm sharing this:
1. Download your preferred Optifine version here. (Note: Must be 1.7.2)
2. Download your preferred Forge version here. (Note: Must be 1.7.2)
3. Open and install both. They should both create a new profile. Play your minecraft with both profiles.
4. Download liteloader here. Simply download the latest version. Open it.
You should get this when you open it:

Simply check the chain to Minecraft Forge and chain to Optifine boxes, select the version of the forge and optifine you just got, and you're good to go! Enjoy!
 
I use Forge, MPM, and OptiFine, but I never used liteloader.
Because I don't have any other mods, I dragged both MPM and OptiFine (both for 1.7.2) into the mods folder after I installed 1.7.2 Forge. This works fine as well, but I'm not sure how you would go about having other mods as well. I suppose you can just chose which ones you want to run on the Minecraft home screen before you go to play on MassiveCraft.
 
How I got Optifine and Forge working: (which I also showed to some other people on this server)
  1. Install Forge like usual
  2. Install MPM like usual
  3. Install Optifine using this file.
Well at least I hope it was the correct file o.o I did this quiet some time ago, could be possible I messed the links up a little...
 
I don't actually know what Liteloader is...but the whole "Install Forge and put all else in the mods folder" is simple and works. I don't know what advantage Liteloader is supposed to provide. But if it works, it works...

What it does is allow you to choose the mods you want to play with in your mod folder. You can choose to disable mods in you mods folder when you start the game.

Oh that's cool, I was trying to look for ways to have multiple mod profiles earlier today (A shaders profile and PvP mods profile).
Though, for this current setup, it seems rather unneccesary, since putting everything in the mods folder would work just as well, and would help reduce the number of mods (mods, in general, decrease FPS, unless that mod is Optifine :P)
