Honestly this whole fiasco really showed the true colours of our community and well...it kinda sucks, while I will agree that the system could have been better, the formula for mod creators getting something tangible back for their hard work is definitely something that is totally worth exploring, but then we have these mod users who are being entitled assholes demanding that it is their God-given right to take someone's work and not have to pay for it...do you honestly see how ridiculous that sounds? Look I love free modding as much as the next person and heck, I would prefer not to have to pay for mods. However on the flip side I also know how much work it takes to make something, being a small time author who started writing stories for blogs and such, sure I write for the joy of writing but at the same time the amount of time I put into it doesn't put bread on the table. If i was given an opportunity to write a novel which I could sell, of course I would be all for it, making something for doing something I love totally worth it even more so than just writing for free. In the real world people generally get paid for the work that they do, and let's be honest here a lot of these mod creators deserve it...This is not a "win for the community" like so many like to proclaim, rather this was just a wake-up call for many hard working mod authors and mod users like myself.
