Talk:Mods/Installing mods using ModLoader

Shouldn't this be under Tutorials or am I missing something here? – ultradude25 ( T at 02:34, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Putting it under tutorials would give modding a sense of legitimacy, something I wanted to avoid. I also thought of maybe putting it in the Mods space, but then, this isn't a mod, it is about mods.  --Jonnay 09:11, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't see how putting it in the mainspace make it look any less legit than putting it under tutorials.--Quatroking -  MCWiki Administrator  10:41, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Hence why I glued a link to it into the Mods page under Mod Safety (at bottom). It's not exactly written as a tutorial, IMO, but has more info in it that the main Mods page, so, inserted.-Wulfenbach (not on fire for once) 11:39, 12 March 2011 (UTC)
 * I'll defer to ultradude or Quatroking here. My preference however is that it shouldn't go into an easily accesable spae like tutorials.  Maybe it should go into the /Mod space, and it can be more of a "Everything Mod related" section?  Anyway, you guys figure it out, and I'll keep throwing content at it, in its new location. --Jonnay

Mods's dangerousity increased?
This pages really increase Mods's real dangerousity. Can be true about username/password stealing, but many mods won't break your world. Just say that you need to backup your worlds one time. Calinou 23:43, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Very Biased Article
This page is extremely biased towards modders. "Before you begin modding your copy of minecraft it is very important to understand what you are doing and what kind of hole you will be digging yourself.", and "Modding Minecraft will break Minecraft, and make your worlds unusable. No one will be able to help you when this happens." are some examples. First off, you are not digging yourself a hole by installing mods. You're digging yourself a hole by not knowing how to install mods. Second, saying "will break Minecraft" is wrong. Mods only break Minecraft if you fail at installing them, replace "will" with "may" and it's reasonably correct. Third, "no one will be able to help you" is wrong. The modding community is glad to help anybody having problems with mods.

In conclusion, not all modders are evil like you all think. Just because Notch says that we're evil and hates us does not mean it's true. Good day. TehKrush 01:34, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
 * Indeed, I thought this article was about installing mods, not telling people multiple times that it's dangerous to install mods and unsupported before telling them that it's unsupported again. --Yourself 01:44, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
 * In fact, there is nothing here on how to actually install mods. I see a part on making a backup, but that's it. TehKrush 01:45, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
