It's all nice and fine guys, but...
We all know that there are also not so helpfull mods, we know about FM/DM swap but there are also people that ARE capable of changing much hotter things like FM for example. My squaddie recieved a track of ME109 doing Mach 1,5 :lol: - seriously.
Also it's not nice to boast how you can have minor mods and keep quiet about it, what might seem a minor modification to you may not necesserily be minor for aeverybody else, trust me one thing if I showed up anywhere with just a modded FockeWulf gunsight you would notice, you would painfully notice :wink:
There are also mods that are making the game more correct(like above FW bar correction), I know that and being a nasty Luftwhiner I like the results of modding the FW gunsight, but where do we draw the line? This is why we can either have "free for all" or "default only".
To conclude my thoughts, I know you can get a way with many things, however WE* TRUST you not to use mods on our server, that's all, it's up to your understanding of moral values to act in a way you find appropriate.
If however you do declare publicly that you use mods(or it simply discoveres, you tell a guy that knows a guy that knows a guy) however harmless and simple the are(sound mod) or seem to be(e.g. cockpit alterations) it is notified on Warclouds formus by it's admins that you will get permanently banned.
*-"WE" means, we the WarClouds players
However this was all OT
The biggest reason of my reaction is the title of this thread, it says "Mod friendly servers" that is to imply that the servers on the list accept and approve Mods while that is simply incorrect.
WarClouds didn't go for witch hunts, it didn't go for mod hysteria, and it stayed user friendly as we know what issues CRT=2 brings.
It's especially important now, that we get YOUR support, for a server based on mutual TRUST among players, because if v409 doesen't bring new protection, you will not have such servers anymore unless we all support them by keeping them clean.
Implying that WC(and similar servers) is mod friendly most certainly does not help;
-first there may be bans issued that will happen just by misunderstanding, you read here it's mod friendly and then WHAM - perma banned
-second it will also attract people who are not into harmless modding only :wink:
Guys the mods are great and I'm glad you all are having lot's of fun with this
So don't get me wrong or something, I just wanted to clear this up, NHF I hope 8)
