CS as a company do not wish to have paid mods. The legality of paid mods is in a grey area when it comes to the use of branding and logos used without the consent of the owners. While we understand that not all paid mods use the IP of other companies/people, it is very hard to moderate what is an isn’t acceptable when money is involved. There are also concerns that it could look unfavourable to potential work partners going forward if SCS allow mods that may potentially use unlicensed branding. As such the only option is to simply disallow all paid mods on the official forums/sites.
They don’t deserve a cent – it’s absolute copyright infringement, theft for profit, disrespect for other people’s work and the original finished product!
