To be fair to the OP, I did request a couple courts from him via PM, and the purpose of his entire disclosure was to reinforce the fact that he doesn't want his work shared without his permission, or credit taken for his work, which is understandable.
Could he place that disclosure in the first post on his thread? Of course. But if he doesn't feel that is appropriately getting the point across because of what he has seen happen to other modders, or he doesnt believe that people will go back and look at his disclosure (because the thread reaches multiple pages), those could all be reasons.
The point is: what he is doing is technically not against the rules, he is also giving direct links to the courts (literally no pop ups, adfly, etc) and he is not charging for mods. While going the PM route shouldnt be standard, as it's kind of a hassle at times, he is actually not doing anything wrong. Those saying "what is the purpose?", those are all reasons, and part of his PM that he sends to people.
His message back to me was detailed, kind, and didnt make me feel like he was looking for attention or anything else for that matter. I don't reccomend the PM route, and also hope that it doesnt become more common, but I think it's okay for people to get off his case, as he has not broken any rules and is providing free mods to the community without any popups, adfly, etc
Hopefully we can just focus on his work moving forward.
In regards to noobmaycry, he mods his way, not a big deal. If you don't like his work, or wouldnt use it, don't download it, a lot of people actually download his work. I personally wouldn't use his work because it's not my style, just like I wouldnt use a lot of the faces shown on 2kspecialist or Shuajotas threads, different strokes for different folks. We don't need to be on the verge of insulting when critiquing other peoples work, that's not cool. I made that mistake last year with Maumaus retro mod, instead of just making a request or constructively critiquing, I got a little annoyed and made it more about me. Him and I are on good terms now and I respect him a lot as a modder (I use his SFX and net mods, and we PM back and forth). I could have done a better job making my requests and critiques, I learned from that. And if you want to critique his work, it can be done without coming off insulting, all modders understand that constructive criticism comes with modding and being a modder, it's part of the territory.
Also, I have literally seen you say that you don't know how to do much outside of tattoos. The person in here who said that probably hasn't seen you release cyberfaces, that's where that comes from.
I don't care or know if you do them or not, honestly. But that's probably where it comes from. And, if you do only do tattoos, that's fine as well, it's not a competition modding wise, we can all contribute in our own ways, or even just participate in discussion or download, as long as we all follow the rules and be respectful.
Lastly, Bluejay you made a comment and shared a gif (Magic eating popcorn) on the Limnono thread when two people were going back and forth arguing. How do you think others feel about you going back and forth with people in different threads? Wouldnt that piss you off a little if someone came in here and shared that gif and made those comments while you went at it with two other modders? I know it would. Why is that necessary? Both of them will probably get banned or talked to by the moderators, why rile them up even more and make fun of the situation? It's just uncalled for.
Regardless, the OP of this thread didnt break any rules, neither did noobmaycry. All the extra stuff like "Communist China" and "Salty" and "Chill bro". Its just not necessary. Actually none of this is. Can we just move on and treat eachother better?
I came into this conversation because I literally sent a PM to the OP, and know his process exactly. Let's leave him alone and move on.
