I'm in total agreement with paintedskies.
This is moderator power-abuse in it's most ugliest form if I've ever seen it. You think the people that made Unreal Tournament are this close-minded? Their entire success of UT99, UT2003, and UT2004 are all due to client-side mods and customer imagination... 'nuff said.
To add to this:
I was very happy with the game and the overall mechanics, community and such but as soon as I found out that CuppaJo was abusing his power as a moderator, I've become quite furious. Don't think I'm overreacting, because I'm not. I just read some posts about how moderator and dev communication were the best around for any MMORPG. This has totally turned that idea 180°.

ok listen:
1. FPS are different than MMORPGs
2. CuppaJo is the messenger. Its was probably some at exec at NCsoft who told her to post that. And how the hell is CuppaJo abusing her power by enforcing the ToS that you agreed to?
3. It IS still good communication.
4. They are probably doing this beca usse they are adding most of the quality of life changes at a patch into the main game. once found, stores are added to player maps and such. that would move the map patch over the line from harmless mod to minor cheat.
5. give it a rest already, its not a big deal.. chances are the overide won't be removed, this is just a way to limit the liability. they probably get support calls from people who messed up their game client doing this somehow.
give it a rest allready.
