What the fuck is this shit? who gave him the write to go and post a LEGAL warning in the mod descriptions. That was out of line IMO and I am doing my part to report this.

No, it is still needed and as the documentation source for the spring player base these sort of edits are out of line.

yes, After the new site is up I am going to be going through updating and organizing the wiki. Several tags are missing and I have some tips I want to put inside of the wiki.

if you want to keep it better you might want to stop anyone other than devs and modders and handpicked people from posting.

I remember when Emmanuel got into the wiki :D

I would revert his edit but I wanted to first draw attention to it. IMO this is the same as vandalism to me.

He vandalised quite a few pages... you can probably undo all of his changes without investigating them. :P

I probably could. I can see his history and do all the janitorial work but I do not want to sacrifice all my time wiping up all the bullshit is put on the wiki, :\

i wonder why spiderpack, ota revamp and utasp pack were left out.

Smells like a CONSPIRACY!

The funniest thing is that everything else has a legal status as well. For instance, E&E is held by Fang. S44 is CC:SA?

The modifications have been reverted... which means you have to go in history to see them. This sort of thing attaches a stigma to the projects in question. It puts a bad image to the projects. Neddie has corrected it.

I fixed up the games page a little bit more, and got rid of some of the emmanuel shit in the mods category.

Also, I suggest that we get rid of the old mods page and just use the games page. The games page lists all of the popular mods, and the mods category can be used to house all of the older mods pages.

I don't see why putting a "tm" next to mods which are pretty much illegal to have up is such a thing to get so pissed off over.

Well you didn't say yours had a "tm" by it, i mean for the ta mods, since they all contain copyrighted content, people should be properly told about it.

There is no TM on the TA mod and there is no reason to bring all of that into the wiki. Just let the players see the mods. No reason to put all the community drama on the players, they have to deal with main as it is.
