What posts do new guy need to learn?
« on: September 01, 2021, 09:22:17 AM »

I am new guy to this forum and have learned Forum Rules and Guidelines...
I have to learn other posts?
If I want to release a MOD, what other rules do I need to learn?

 I know my English is terrible...

Seriously, I didn't find a rule of what MODDer shouldn't do.
For example, can MODDer add "Hate Speech" to their MOD?

Not a modder, but if you want guidelines for mod functionality and balance, then you can check out the guidelines written by Dark Revenant here.

For things like hate speech and ideologies it would be best to follow the Forum and Community Guidelines.

There is historical precedent of a modder that posted a mod here containing pro-nazi propaganda and dog whistles that has since been removed and the user banned. It would be in best interests to avoid the topic entirely.

OK...
Means that the MOD released here can be released directly without review?
And, the only measures for this forum to deal with hate speech are banning and deletion of posts, and no such methods as "bullying"?

Selling mods, deceiving players, hostile incompatibility and bullying critics are acceptable behaviors for MODDer?

Those sound like leading questions to me. What are you trying to get at?
