But if someone happens to make a mod that is fun and does not affect anyone outside of their own server, will you let them? That's the argument I see here. You boast freedom, then why not allow the community help shape the community and produce potentially better content. If this content becomes popular, you could implement it into the main game. Of course, you do not want people to break the game but if it is on their own server, it does not affect the public. Here's my proposal to you devs. Allow modding but restricted: new models, ability to change various variables such as house cost, different textures, and maybe even allow custom maps because this game seems more of a framework than a complete game, it has so much potential. If someone made San Andreas as a map, why stop them? My final point is this: Allow mods BUT only on whitelisted servers. This way you can provide a disclaimer that "We do not have any affiliations with the content on those modded servers, just like a gun manufacturer does not take responsibility for any murders committed using their product."
