Be Careful Discussing Awesomemod!
kuronue:
^ On a site called "Transportation Discussions", no less.
Seriously, the site is about modding the game. No-CD cracks are a type of game mod, and not an illegal one.
Mootilda:
The rules at MTS say that you can't discuss no-cd. You were answering a post asking about where to find a no-cd. You likely mentioned that AwesomeMod includes a no-cd and included a link. It makes sense to me that you would be warned. I've never had any problems posting about AwesomeMod or answering questions about it at MTS, but I avoid talking about its no-cd ability at that site.
If MTS said that I wasn't allowed to discuss purple on their site, I'd avoid discussing purple there. It doesn't really matter whether the rules make sense, just whether I want to get into trouble. I have no desire to be banned, so I try to follow the rules.
The other warning that you got probably had nothing specific to do with AwesomeMod. MTS says that they can't provide support for 3rd-party mods. Pescado says the same thing here. It makes sense to ask for support from the person who wrote the mod. I'm not sure why you'd get an official warning for that, but the policy makes some sense.

I cleared it up with them. It was the no-CD question itself and not Awesomemod that was the problem.

No, Awesomemod is too awesome to shun just because it also happens to be a no-cd crack. However, (per the site rules) no one is allowed to request a no-cd crack or recommend Awesomemod specifically for that purpose.
I just wasn't thinking and was jumping to conlcusions.
Anyways, its one of those guilty by association things (no-CD = pirate!) and strict rules. Of which, I violated by responding. Woops...

It's not even a no CD crack. A crack would imply that the executable was altered to prevent it. All AwesomeMod is changing is some gamescripting. Besides, if you're a launcher tard, it won't even function as that.

I don't understand. I was a launcher tard for a while (I think--if I understand correctly that what you mean by that is "tard who starts the game using the launcher") before folks here showed me the error of my ways, and I always played without the cd.
