[Mod suddenly hidden by author with odd message]

Interestingly enough, I refreshed that tab before typing my reply just now, and it's no longer hidden. Thank you, Author.

Edit:
23 endorsements (including mine) from over a thousand unique downloads since January 19 of this year, now I understand why the author may have been annoyed enough to hide it.

[Mod suddenly hidden by author with odd message]

Is it common practice to hide a mod from people if they don't click on the endorse button within a certain time frame after downloading it?

I had downloaded a few mods a couple days ago to test if they would work together with the expectation of getting back to endorse, et cetera later. I ended up being distracted by something else, and when I went back to do my duty the mod in question was set to hidden, with the message, "I take it that if you don't endorse it you don't like it"
I don't even remember who the author is, so I can't ask them directly.

Would it be hidden for just me, or is it a global thing?

[HELP! I don't know what mod this is, and I can't use it]

Devious Devices is a mod on LL, by Kimy.
It requires all DLC, CBBE, Body Slide, Armor Keyword Resources (all on nexus) and Torture Devices (also on ll) to function.

Go to the ll site and add '/topic/73928-devious-devices' to the end of the url.
