MODHUB MUST GO!!!

[CaptainBlue]

Modhub.us has become the centerpiece of the problems with the FS community. A lack of moderation, the ability of users to pose as prominent members of the community, and the sheer number of hacked, pirated, and unwarranted mods on Modhub have rendered it unfit to continue as a source of modifications for the FS community.

If you have had mods hacked and uploaded to Modhub, had users pose as you for unwarranted mod releases or obscene comments, or generally feel that Modhub's continued existence as the home of rogue FS content is bad for the overall health of the FS community, please sign this petition.

Here is a link to the petition: https://www.change.org/p/giants-software-cloudflare-modhub-must-go?recruiter=272861961&utm_source=share_petition&utm_medium=copylink

Welcome to the Internet

Signed. Normaly I dont touch stuff on change.org but i felt this is a worthy cause. now if we can start getting rid of other places like this...

[EZP]

Meh...I use it all the time. Also, I know a few modders who release their stuff on ModHub 'cause they don't have their own websites or belong to one of the ''cliques' (the real reason this community is what it is (or rather, isn't)).

Steam Workshop is a more worthy cause to pressure Giants over. At least it has a remote possibility of happening. Anybody who thinks Giants is going to champion the fight to free the internet of reposted mods should...well...they should really give that another think...

hacked, pirated, and unwarranted mods.............right.......how can you pirate something that has no copyright?
Homemade mods are not copyrighted, not even the once that the creaters cry "dont upload to other sites".

+1

And removing 1 Site solves any problem.... sure.... HA-HA

Btw Topic should be renamed to: Internet must go.
Thats the only way to "solve" things like this.

Even REAL copyrighted Things get hacked, pirated and whatever, THATS the Internet, the whole World must deal with it.

Would be interesting to see if the last two posters would have the same attitude if it was their work being treated the same manner

1. If you spent the time and energy creating a good quality mod, why horde it to yourself?

2. If you are going to create one and want to keep it to yourself don't upload it anywhere...

3. I'm assuming your a member of some FS 15 or modding website and you want your mods to be "exclusive" to that site. I only know of 2 sites like that that have decent mods on them. Not saying they are the only 2, I'm saying with all the looking I do they are the only ones I've found. So if your on a differnt site I don't know about and someone "stole" a mod from it an placed it on modhub and I'm using it. Kudos to the person who uploaded it to Modhub!!!!

4. You cain't sell the mod, so other than having your name in the credits (which 99% of the time your name stays on the mod anyway) WTF does it matter?
