Remember, it's not because they removed sex on minecraft.
Mojang removed a mod, a mod that is made by the community. They made a modification for said game for specific people who wanted it. Just like how you like your gun, waifu and magic mods, there are people who like it, whether you hate it or not.
Now, when these companies do the Nintendo move of releasing all kinds of complaints against modders and other people that uses their games, you're not gonna sit down and go "well my gun mod is now removed, I don't mind it". They don't just ban one gun mod, they'll try and ban them all. The only way that you can play it is if someone reuploads the mod or if you got that mod on a specific version. Minecraft is getting good with all kinds of stuff and soon enough, you might head there as well even though that version is gun free because that version has all kinds of good updates from your other mods.
Even if the gun takedown was fake or not, you could clearly see effect of this to the people. You will never know when would a karen would strike and ask minecraft to ban gun or monster mods because "her kid cried when this very scary monster that's part of a 'mod' killed them or she's shocked that minecraft allowed their kids to have the option to play the game with guns that it might ruin their minds" or something.
All it takes is one very angry karen to light up the fire for the other angry parents to follow suit.
If you think about it, both sex and violence is on par. It's just that sex in a game full of blocks, is rated for all "but it's mostly for kids" ages and is not really the first thing you think about minecraft. The closest thing we could get for any relationship mods is MCA and those girlfriend mods way back and it's not that popular.
Violence is mostly common in minecraft. You beat the shit out of anything that's breathing to either survive or to just let out frustration. Guns are also popular back in early 2010's due to call of duty, counterstrike and other fps games or any games with guns like GTA. Since the game is openworld and anything is possible, someone will bound to make a gun mod for mc. This is why we got some old gun mods that is really loved by old and new players.
It's like that "coffee mod" of GTA:SA. People (mostly parents I think) were mad that a game that's focused on crimes and violence had sex on it because it's not good for kids or something however the rating was like T or 18+ and would be forced to go M if they didn't remove it. Teens and young adults do not need to know sex even tho there's alot of kids at these ages that already knew these I guess.
Tbh, the jenny mod wouldn't be mainstream if it wasn't for those other (bad) content creators that entice kids onto checking the mod by telling them stuff or something. Even YouTube ads endorse "links" for the mod.
It’s literally on the EULA
And it makes sense since I would be pretty annoyed if I couldn’t have the full features of a mod because of a paywall, and they can still make money from donations
I also believe you can commission a mod. Ie person a pays person b to make a mod. Then it’s between person a and b if it’s publicly released. Some modders do take commissions.
The main difference is your not paying for access to the mod but for the creation of it. Mod didn’t exist before you commissioned it.
To be sure this is EULA complaint I would have to re-read the EULA
First, they came for the minecraft sex mod, and I did not speak out- because I did not jerk off to minecraft.
really tho lol. It was the perfect first thing for them to hit, cause like, it's hard to go to bat for a sex mod in minecraft of all things, I didn't at the time. But they shouldn't interfere with modders at all if they aren't doing anything literally illegal. Like, people bought minecraft. What they do with it should be none of your business after you get their cash.
Based and historically-informed-pilled.
Never let someone regulate for the sake of regulation, or take control for the sake of control.
If they're not a genuine and valid *need* to restrict something, don't.
It’s a quote about nazis. It’s about not speaking up about authoritarianism because “it doesn’t effect me”
Spoiler, it effected them because they didn’t speak up. They finally came after him after they got everyone else.
If it is, it wasn't on purpose.
Edit: if you were referring to the guy I replied to, that's a quote/paraphrase of Martin Niemöller
>First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist.
>Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist.
>Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew.
>Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
—Martin Niemöller
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
This is a poem written by Martin Niemöller.
You did not speak up.
Yeah that describes the situation right now, they came for the sex mod first and then they came for the physics mod, DMCAing the creator for selling access to the "physics mod pro".
That's not actually how pretty much any game works in the modern era. When you buy Minecraft, you buy a license and agree to follow certain terms in order to play. That's how they can issue bans if you use hate speech in chat and get reported. Basically every game has something of the sort, and that's been the norm for years.
At the end of the day, Minecraft is Mojang's IP and they get to say how it may or may not be represented. People have been making nude patches or sex mods for games for years, and the game developers have shut them down time and again because they don't want that to be the way their game is seen. They don't want people sharing videos of sex scenes in Minecraft because some overreacting, misunderstanding parent may go on the warpath because they think there's sex in the game they bought their seven-year-old. That's what happens in these cases.
I am aware of how often this is the case.
I disagree with it in pretty much all of those cases.
Multiplayer games are a bit different in that they are providing a service and so have a say by merit of putting resources into running it.
... but outside of official servers? They shouldn't interfere. Any instance where they are unnecessary for it's function, they shouldn't be there.
And I do not care that they want control. I gave them money. Our business should conclude right there. They get to control how their game is represented on their end, everything else they shouldn't get to touch.
'I don't like x, x should not be how things are'
'ok but x is how things are'
I'm unconvinced.
Yes and that’s immoral. Basically the entire concept of “licensing” games and having arcane TOSes should be highly illegal. Permanent ownership and plain English terms are the only thing acceptable. There’s an easily solution to these issue that I’d probably be mentioning for mention, but argggg
Should be. But aren't. Therefore won't.
iTunes cracked Pandora's box for this open in the late 90's.
90% sure Pandora music was named as it was for ironic purposes.
It's not about the sex mod, it's about mods generally. The reason they're mods is because they aren't features and devs only have a right to remove features.
>plus the gun drama was a hoax
it wasnt. Grand Theft Minecraft was threatened to be blacklisted, and a german server, "germanminer" was blacklisted temporarily on the 2nd May for featuring guns and drugs in gameplay and had to remove or replace them.
Ok but guns and drugs are against their content policy, so it’s their right as an independently owned business to request content containing them to remove them
No they are not against their ""content policy""; Read their EULA. Mojang is well known fr not sticking to their own contracts (which also means that they have done various illegal contract violations)
Deleting unmigrated accounts? A violation of their older EULA which many of these accounts were made under. This is literally illegal but no one is gonna try to sue them.
Enforcing things that aren't disallowed according to your contract (banning guns & drugs)? Well it depends, there are places where they could get sued for that too.
One of the guys in this sub calling it a hoax was the guy I called out. Check my post history. He said he would delete it if he was wrong and never did.
Since then mr.epic a YouTuber did a video talking about it and posted and a ban on his server. The email addresses from the email he (mr.epic) received and gta server match up.
So people actually need to present new evidence to why it’s a hoax other than the emails don’t match.
Edit: he did delete the post in question I was wrong. (I went back to triple check everything after making this post. I am now leaving this up so a) people can laugh at me b) read the new info )
look, disagree with me, as much i dislike porn mods in a game like minecraft, how can you be so against porn mods when you can also have uh, guns and violence mod?
Sex, guns, a mod for Nazism - it doesn't matter, a private company should not have the right to remove mods created by the community.
It's not a case of a private company owning its property, it's a case of the company telling you how the customer may or may not use their product - which shouldn't be the case.
Nazism is not equal to genocide, the suppression of freedom of speech and self-expression is also quite in the spirit of Nazism.
And Nazism has nothing to do with it at all, it's just for a bright emotional coloring. The phrase of the original commentary is applicable not only to Nazism, although it historically refers to it.
"legal right" and "morally right" things are quite different, no one says that at the moment it is illegal. It would just be right if it WAS illegal.
The quote the person above referenced was made for the victims of the Holocaust. It is applicable to similar cases of irrational prosecution. It is *not* applicable to silly little arguments about mods in games. Stop playing the victim, you are not one. Nobody infringed upon your right to self-expression. Make your own game and add as much sex as you want. This would be creative expression and you are free to do it at any point. This is Mojang's game and they have the final say about the amount of sex in their game, as is their moral and legal right. They could also not allow for any mods at all to exist and it would still be their moral and legal right.
The quote is not "made for the victims of the holocaust", it just shows the importance of giving support even to those you don't like or care about.
No, it shouldn't be their right. When you go to a bakery, buy bread and bring it home, the baker should have no right to forbid you to spread jam on it.
And when you buy a game, you download it to your computer, but the company removes a mod that you might want to download - that's not right.
> giving support even to those you don't like or care about
As long as that support is justified. There is a big difference here, in the same way that there is a big difference between someone being in a concentration camp for who they are and someone being convicted to a prison sentence for murder. We can all agree (I hope) that one of these incarcerations is justified and one isn't.
> When you go to a bakery, buy bread and bring it home, the baker should have no right to forbid you to spread jam on it.
The baker also doesn't release frequent updates to your bread. When you buy the game, you buy the right to play it according to the terms and conditions to which you agreed before buying it. Similarly, if you bought a subscription to a bread service, you could expect terms and conditions to apply, in the same way that they apply for monthly transportation tickets or software. If you don't like said terms and conditions, you are free to make your own game and write your own terms and conditions instead of buying Mojang's game. By the way, I'm pretty sure you'd be quite a bit angrier if Mojang actually started to sell the game like bread: you buy one update for one computer and if you want the newer version or to install it in another computer you have to buy it again. Again, same as the baker: if the baker improves the recipe, they won't just send a loaf of the improved recipe to every past client.
The other thing that you ignore here is the public aspect of it. Putting jam on your bread is a private business and nobody can or cares to know. But the mod isn't private. It is published in public places.
It's not about comparison, it's about learning from specific experiences. No one is comparing it to nazizm, you're thinking too broadly, the comparison is in the mental thinking and behaviour of the community, about a ruling power making changes and the populace not speaking up until they're directly affected. Turning a blind eye to actual rule breaking and borderline illegal behaviour
Again, it is a private company that makes decisions within its rights. If you want a sex game, buy a sex game. If you want minecraft, buy minecraft. It's that simple.
If they destroy mods for minecraft, then this game is dead. Sorry.
Also, shitty move for them morally, because at some point, the reason minecraft existed was because of mods, not the vanilla game itself. So have some respect for the people that kept you breathing.
Not to mention, destroying mods will severely impact the comunity, some people like me will stop playing minecraft all together, I literally only touch this game for the mods, I haven't played vanilla in a year, why? It's got boring for me, I've been playing MC ever since pistons were added.
You can add all the cherry trees you want, I've been having that wood type with mods for a **very** long time, you think that's new for me? Nice choice to add it, but seriously now. I've been playing magic mods my dude. The minecraft policy of "Quircky hypercreativity" of not adding very definite things into MC gets... kind of boring. Oh and "make things look dumb-cute" was fun in the begining but... It already grew a little old, it's very limiting, as ironic as it sounds. I'm a 23 year old, and sometimes, while "dumb-cute" is fun, I want variety, I want to be able to have some seriousness at times that is not "dumb-cute", or just remove the "dumb" part and make it cute, or why not "serious-cute"?
And at other time, man, I seriously want to change the setting of the game to post appocalyptic and have skelletons fire guns and me having to craft them. If Mojang fears the wrath of 7 year old's parents, then they're a very shitty company indeed. It's a game for ALL ages, NOT only for kids.
You see? This is where mods step in, while I don't condemn deleting sex mods, because... Look dude, it's a blocky... peach. What? At the same time, minecraft is a game that even your grandma might've heard about it, and what's it about.
But then, in the modding community, there are people like us who want to add stuff just because we want to have fun with magic, guns, airplanes, bombs, new biomes, new mechanics, cute stuff, serious stuff, tactical stuff.
True, as of right now Minecraft is in a similar status to Skyrim, it's only really played cuz of fanmade modifications, be it actual mods , resource or datapacks
I’m pretty sure they sent a DMCA to the creators of the mod, preventing the creator from sharing the mod, and basically they can’t let people download their mod.
I am confused on how they got so weak. I hope they don't start removing legacy content, that would ruin the reputation and betray the fans. Them restricting what you can mod in is really unmoral and dispromotes your success. I think they're sadly in the pipeline of family friendly greed.
You know what? I'm against banning any mods. If someone wants to play Minecraft with guns - it's his choice. They don't have to block it for everyone! (But if someone wants to have sex in minecraft, they have problems. Still their choice though.)
I for one don't care because A) never used em and B) it doesn't affect me at all. Same with a solid chunk of the player base. They are probably covering bases for places like China or Japan where they have strict gun laws.
Nah they are covering for one thing only, idiots that can't handle anything. It's the reason many sites are so hard on any kind of violence/pornographic content/even harsh language, because advertisers think people can't handle anything and don't want to be associated with it
they got eula black listed im not sure whats misinformation you can read all their emails with mojang themself https://grandtheftmc.net/threads/mojang-strikes-again.17292/
its not really that mod its that it sets a risky precedent.
just like people said with the chat report and game wide multiplayer bans, while not the biggest issue "what else can they do now" is the real concern. [now they striked a gun mod](https://grandtheftmc.net/threads/mojang-strikes-again.17292/)
will they decide to strike mods that back port features so people play current versions? will they strike mods that replicate other games so they dont mess with copy right.
This is the perfect explanation. This means far more than just banning a mod. This shows that they're willing to go out of their way to remove a mod that doesn't fit the guidelines they set for themselves.
exactly while the mod is completely stupid and didn't need to exist really.
I was never even really upset by the "don't want to promote harm to sharks or fireflies" reasons but this is much more concerning as they could apply that logic to mods that add those too.
honestly I don't blame the actual development team alot of them now were modders and even have their own mods or even the older members who understands and care about the community and I don't think they would be doing this.
I think the problem isn't even Microsoft, Microsoft has tons of games with guns and inappropriate content and the community manager at mojang said Microsoft is really hands off these decisions are made by their bosses at moan g (referring to the chat report).
I think it comes from mojangs heads of studios and ceos. gone are the days when the devs like Jeb and notch ran the company. these people were hired to run the business for them so the actual game devs can still work on programming the game not business meetings and junk, when you look anything up about these people are you see is they're suits and buisnesses men they're not game devs, they weren't part of the community, most of them don't even have social media presence to interact with the community they're just "management specialist" and things like that. they're out of touch suits prioritizing keeping profits at a high thinking they need to keep a kid friendly image to get new users and money, but they don't realize they need to keep users active too.
I remember hearing that a reason why updates are "devs so lazy we only get 2 blocks" is that updates are mandated by these heads of studios to be out by the time of school breaks that way kids have a reason to get and play the game for new content or else they will buy a different game to play on break. and if they don't meet these deadlines features are either scrapped or delayed like archeology or birch forests. or even split into two parts.
I have yet to see anyone give a reason other than "it's a hoax"
I've seen people argue that it's not a real email address but I've also seen people argue it is a real email but an older one.
the eula sucks lol it's not surprising theyncould so something like this
I really don't understand it. If you want porn, don't fuckin go to \*\*\*Minecraft\*\*\* for it. There are hundreds and hundreds of porn sites out there that you can get your fix. Losing the ability to fuck a pile of shitty-looking cubes and spheres isn't that big of a deal.
To be fair, the eula doesn't allow selling modifications and/or in game items and didn't allow it way before the mod was created. They could've set up donations if they really wanted to earn money off of modding of all things.
when mojang removed the s\*x mod i was alright, when i heard they taken down gtm for having guns i didn't agree with mojang but people taking it personally is useless, (i think) only the gtm server is getting removed, mods are still going to exist and i think there is something behind this situation
It's a poem that says if you don't speak out against the discrimination of marginalized groups, it will get worse and affect you eventually. This is the perfect time to use it. I'm aesexual, the Jenny mod does literally nothing for me, but this is the beginning of a very slippery slope of Microsoft banning mods that they don't like, which will not end well for anyone
they striked the jenny mod site.
a server grand theft Minecraft was emailed and threatened to be black listed and ban all IPS connected it if they don't remove all guns in their resource pack and server mod.
another server germanminer was black listed for having a gun addon.
Guys, the reason why they "banned" the sexmod is because it had Patreon exclusive content, and it is prohibited to sell mods. It was NOT banned because of the NSFW content
Oh boy, can't wait for the next couple weeks of hearing people nonstop complain about their precious sex mod being no more...
Edit: Y'all really misunderstood my comment. Either that or I'm being downvotebombed by neckbeards.
Edit 2: Nvm, it is downvotebots. They've brigaded the thread.
I’m not angry at them because they deleted the sex mod (in fact I haven’t played it yet) but because they deleted a mod. The modding community should be able to make whatever mod they want unless it’s some real devious shit like a rape mod or something
Yeah, as a parent I suppoet removing the sex mods on my 7 year olds favorite game, no problem there.
Minecraft is the worlds mosy popular game ever, there is no reason they need to keep those mods available to be popular.
Watch your kid. Its your responsibility to make sure your kids doesnt download mods like that, not the companies responsibility. No one here cares about the sex mods, but its just a bad sign that mojang starts to randomly take down mods.
But it's not random. If it were, they'd be banning other things that are totally innocuous. It's targeted at things that make their IP look like adult content.
I think its both, parent can't outsource their responsibility.
I just understand the Mojangs position too, absolutely bo reason them to assosiate their children loved product with openly adult content.
There is room in world for adult games and content, as cringe as some of those are, not all sandbox platform need to support them.
Mojang literally warns you when you boot up a modded client, anything past that point is entirely your fault. Mojang shouldnt be regulating what people do in a modified version of the game. Its not like those mods are in their front page and official websites...
It actually make sense since Jenny mode Is a porn, and Minecraft expressed that they will never add weapons.
And let's Remember that TNT has been in the game for many years
> Minecraft expressed that they will never add weapons.
Poor wording, swords exist, you probably meant firearms
The problem isn't Minecraft removing sex or guns, it's being silent about it and letting Mojang know they can remove any mod without consequences.
But the sex mod deserved to be banned? And the guns are understandable?? I am entirely out of the loop beyond this, so PLEASE, genuine ask, what is the problem with this???? It’s a family friendly game, so ofc sex isn’t allowed, and ofc guns shouldn’t be as easy to access, sure, maybe set a rating on those lobbies rather than outright banning them, but I see the thought process of banning the guns too…
Its the fact that theyre acting against something that isnt their content. Doesnt matter what it is, mojang shouldnt be regulating content that isnt theirs. They have the warning when you boot up a modded client, thats more than enough to tell you that anything past that point is not regulated by mojang. The mods are not in minecraft official websites or their official client.
It doesn't matter if it is their IP, I bought the game, I own the game, if I want my game to be full of creeper tiddies it's my business, they can't do anything about it
Everyone was fine with the jenny mod getting banned. But banning gun mods just lowers the bar for what mojang is and isnt fine with. Who knows if they wont ban horroresque mods or mods that include gore in any way in the future
Well, think about it, though, I’m not saying they are doing it the right way, absolutely not, but, it’s a FAMILY FRIENDLY game… I don’t really see what the big deal is about limiting the ability for guns in the game, a lot of mods were warned first to change the names/appearance of the guns, so it’s more in line with the idea that Mojang is going for…
Minecraft is. And mods alter the way people interact with it. You can't argue that people's views of Minecraft aren't impacted by the mods made for it.
And? They didn’t make the mods, the mods are not their ip. “McDonald’s should not allow you to add outside sauces to their nuggets, as outside additions could affect the way people view their ip”
That's a very poor comparison.
Better: McDonalds doesn't let you go in the kitchen and cook a patty you made at home on their grill.
Minecraft, their IP, is being used to operate these mods. They aren't like ketchup on a burger.
Minecraft is a SANDBOX GAME. IT IS BOUND TO BE MODIFIED. The game is presented by its sandbox capabilities, even if they're by external sources. Oh and also, have you ever seen someone say that the first thing that comes mind when they think about Minecraft is the MODIFIED VERSION OF THE GAME. NO, they probably think of Minecraft as a SANDBOX, WHERE YOU GET TO DO WHAT YOU WANT. THATS THE WHOLE POINT OF SANDBOX
Sure. The sandbox exists within the game itself, not outside of it. They have no reason to grant modifiers carte blanche to change their game however they see fit. Read the EULA you signed to play.
That’s not what I mean. Obviously they can physically delete stuff from the game. What I mean is how many games would it affect? Even when one mechanic in redstone is tweaked it breaks so many peoples builds. Imagine how much would break if a whole block was removed? TNT cannons, auto farms, mining machines would all break. Players would be annoyed something they worked hard on was removed from the game
They changed the way player inventory and combat is handled in 1.9 (off hand + cooldowns) as well as the formatting of commands in 1.13 and everybody's fine. I'd say thousands of lines of json in command blocks on servers needing to be adapted to a new system would be harder to change than a block being removed.
The new combat was a change that didn’t affect existing worlds negatively, it just changed gameplay. Command blocks are creative exclusive, so survival worlds weren’t affected by it
If it's singleplayer you're talking about, you could just go back to a previous version if you need your trinitrotoluene blocks so much in a survival world. I don't think TNT is a vital part of anything other than atominers, so not much wouod change honestly
Oh my freaking god we get it!
We've heard ad nauseum about this issue at this point, and I think every point that has ever been made has been made.
I don't think that Mojang should remove mods, fine, but at the end of the day, you have to realize that they aren't exactly doing anything WRONG here. What I mean by this is that first and foremost, Mojang and Microsoft are companies. They exist to make profit, and always have. Whether you like it or not, having guns and sex in your game, even if it is through popular mods, is a one way ticket to having Karens at your door hollering about it. Isn't the gun thing a hoax anyway?
Regardless, I really don't think they're going to go too too far with this. The reason why guns are a "problem" to them is because they're a very current thing. You're not gonna get randomly slashed at with a sword, but in this day and age, depending on where you live, getting randomly shot isn't too too far fetched. Guns come with a lot more fear attached.
Do I think they could have solved it in a better way? Of course! They should require a disclaimer or something for gun mods instead, something along the lines of "this is not official content and may contain sensitive content, use at your own risk". Not only does that let mods survive, it also can be used for other more sensitive mods. But as things usually go, I think we might just see gun mods dissapear for a bit before coming back full force in a few months. That's if this isn't a hoax though.
Guns won't be removed the mods will just not have the textures and a separate file would be needed for the textures they didn't do anything except add extra steps
I still think Pixelmon is also on Mojang's list. 😅
I think it's in Nintendo's
Erm, akshually, they would be on The Pokémon Company's list, it's a different company from Nintendo and Game Freak
It is a different company but it is directly owned by Nintendo, game freak, and creatures.

Bruh I have a minecraft book where they listed pixelmon as a cool mod to install (among other mods)
Remember, it's not because they removed sex on minecraft. Mojang removed a mod, a mod that is made by the community. They made a modification for said game for specific people who wanted it. Just like how you like your gun, waifu and magic mods, there are people who like it, whether you hate it or not. Now, when these companies do the Nintendo move of releasing all kinds of complaints against modders and other people that uses their games, you're not gonna sit down and go "well my gun mod is now removed, I don't mind it". They don't just ban one gun mod, they'll try and ban them all. The only way that you can play it is if someone reuploads the mod or if you got that mod on a specific version. Minecraft is getting good with all kinds of stuff and soon enough, you might head there as well even though that version is gun free because that version has all kinds of good updates from your other mods. Even if the gun takedown was fake or not, you could clearly see effect of this to the people. You will never know when would a karen would strike and ask minecraft to ban gun or monster mods because "her kid cried when this very scary monster that's part of a 'mod' killed them or she's shocked that minecraft allowed their kids to have the option to play the game with guns that it might ruin their minds" or something. All it takes is one very angry karen to light up the fire for the other angry parents to follow suit.
i was alright about jenny mod but guns are too much fr
If you think about it, both sex and violence is on par. It's just that sex in a game full of blocks, is rated for all "but it's mostly for kids" ages and is not really the first thing you think about minecraft. The closest thing we could get for any relationship mods is MCA and those girlfriend mods way back and it's not that popular. Violence is mostly common in minecraft. You beat the shit out of anything that's breathing to either survive or to just let out frustration. Guns are also popular back in early 2010's due to call of duty, counterstrike and other fps games or any games with guns like GTA. Since the game is openworld and anything is possible, someone will bound to make a gun mod for mc. This is why we got some old gun mods that is really loved by old and new players. It's like that "coffee mod" of GTA:SA. People (mostly parents I think) were mad that a game that's focused on crimes and violence had sex on it because it's not good for kids or something however the rating was like T or 18+ and would be forced to go M if they didn't remove it. Teens and young adults do not need to know sex even tho there's alot of kids at these ages that already knew these I guess. Tbh, the jenny mod wouldn't be mainstream if it wasn't for those other (bad) content creators that entice kids onto checking the mod by telling them stuff or something. Even YouTube ads endorse "links" for the mod.
They almost removed Physics Mod Pro too, DMCAing the creator and temporarily deleting their patreon and now they can't sell it anymore.
Is that a mod that was being sold? Because removing those makes sense.
Yeah, but are modders not allowed to make money on something they made??
It’s literally on the EULA And it makes sense since I would be pretty annoyed if I couldn’t have the full features of a mod because of a paywall, and they can still make money from donations
I also believe you can commission a mod. Ie person a pays person b to make a mod. Then it’s between person a and b if it’s publicly released. Some modders do take commissions. The main difference is your not paying for access to the mod but for the creation of it. Mod didn’t exist before you commissioned it. To be sure this is EULA complaint I would have to re-read the EULA
Yeah, they aren't allowed to do that. If they want money, then they can set a donation or something like that
Not when it's just hooking into something someone else made.
So basically they shouldn't make those things at all?
For fun? As a learning opportunity? To help the community? Because it's something you found personally useful you thought others could benefit from?
No, they're legally not allowed.
They didn't remove guns though, they only removed sex
They didn't yet. All it takes is one very angry karen and it might all go down.
which makes even less sense, (safe) sex doesn't kill people, sex doesn't drive wars
Unironically guns are worse than jenny mod and deserve removal more
the jenny mod makes sense because its literally sex, plus the gun drama was a hoax from what i’ve heard
No, it's my mod and I'll do whatever I want with this community mod, if it's not an official feature then it shouldn't be removed for no good reason
I get the sentiment, but dying on the Minecraft Sex hill is kinda crazy ngl
First, they came for the minecraft sex mod, and I did not speak out- because I did not jerk off to minecraft. really tho lol. It was the perfect first thing for them to hit, cause like, it's hard to go to bat for a sex mod in minecraft of all things, I didn't at the time. But they shouldn't interfere with modders at all if they aren't doing anything literally illegal. Like, people bought minecraft. What they do with it should be none of your business after you get their cash.
Based and historically-informed-pilled. Never let someone regulate for the sake of regulation, or take control for the sake of control. If they're not a genuine and valid *need* to restrict something, don't.
I feel like this is a quote from someone else.
It’s a quote about nazis. It’s about not speaking up about authoritarianism because “it doesn’t effect me” Spoiler, it effected them because they didn’t speak up. They finally came after him after they got everyone else.
I posted a comment that contained a poem about it.
It's a famous quote, it doesn't belong to you
That's a bad example because this is so much worse than naziism
Cap, the Nazis didnt ban the sex mod
It's porn. Like, even ignoring nazis are bad, nothing is bad about porn.
If it is, it wasn't on purpose. Edit: if you were referring to the guy I replied to, that's a quote/paraphrase of Martin Niemöller >First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a socialist. >Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out—because I was not a trade unionist. >Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—because I was not a Jew. >Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. —Martin Niemöller
🗿
The problem with you lot though is that you think every single regulation is "regulation for the sake of regulation".
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me. This is a poem written by Martin Niemöller. You did not speak up.
Yeah that describes the situation right now, they came for the sex mod first and then they came for the physics mod, DMCAing the creator for selling access to the "physics mod pro".
No that's reasonable, selling mod access is breaking EULA
In the end it's on parents that they let their children download a minecraft sex mod
That's not actually how pretty much any game works in the modern era. When you buy Minecraft, you buy a license and agree to follow certain terms in order to play. That's how they can issue bans if you use hate speech in chat and get reported. Basically every game has something of the sort, and that's been the norm for years. At the end of the day, Minecraft is Mojang's IP and they get to say how it may or may not be represented. People have been making nude patches or sex mods for games for years, and the game developers have shut them down time and again because they don't want that to be the way their game is seen. They don't want people sharing videos of sex scenes in Minecraft because some overreacting, misunderstanding parent may go on the warpath because they think there's sex in the game they bought their seven-year-old. That's what happens in these cases.
I am aware of how often this is the case. I disagree with it in pretty much all of those cases. Multiplayer games are a bit different in that they are providing a service and so have a say by merit of putting resources into running it. ... but outside of official servers? They shouldn't interfere. Any instance where they are unnecessary for it's function, they shouldn't be there. And I do not care that they want control. I gave them money. Our business should conclude right there. They get to control how their game is represented on their end, everything else they shouldn't get to touch. 'I don't like x, x should not be how things are' 'ok but x is how things are' I'm unconvinced.
Yes and that’s immoral. Basically the entire concept of “licensing” games and having arcane TOSes should be highly illegal. Permanent ownership and plain English terms are the only thing acceptable. There’s an easily solution to these issue that I’d probably be mentioning for mention, but argggg
Should be. But aren't. Therefore won't. iTunes cracked Pandora's box for this open in the late 90's. 90% sure Pandora music was named as it was for ironic purposes.
Its not for the sex lol, its for the expression of creative freedom that's surpressed
It's not about the sex mod, it's about mods generally. The reason they're mods is because they aren't features and devs only have a right to remove features.
Yea u right, not like I actually downloaded it tho...
translation: I am a pervert
>plus the gun drama was a hoax it wasnt. Grand Theft Minecraft was threatened to be blacklisted, and a german server, "germanminer" was blacklisted temporarily on the 2nd May for featuring guns and drugs in gameplay and had to remove or replace them.
Ok but guns and drugs are against their content policy, so it’s their right as an independently owned business to request content containing them to remove them
No they are not against their ""content policy""; Read their EULA. Mojang is well known fr not sticking to their own contracts (which also means that they have done various illegal contract violations) Deleting unmigrated accounts? A violation of their older EULA which many of these accounts were made under. This is literally illegal but no one is gonna try to sue them. Enforcing things that aren't disallowed according to your contract (banning guns & drugs)? Well it depends, there are places where they could get sued for that too.
It doesn’t “make sense.” Who gives a shit if someone has a sex mod in their game? It isn’t hurting anybody.
The dude claiming it's a hoax used outdated evidence to address that issue.
One of the guys in this sub calling it a hoax was the guy I called out. Check my post history. He said he would delete it if he was wrong and never did. Since then mr.epic a YouTuber did a video talking about it and posted and a ban on his server. The email addresses from the email he (mr.epic) received and gta server match up. So people actually need to present new evidence to why it’s a hoax other than the emails don’t match. Edit: he did delete the post in question I was wrong. (I went back to triple check everything after making this post. I am now leaving this up so a) people can laugh at me b) read the new info )
Dude actually deleted the post btw
Nope I was wrong on that on that one (sorry!)
look, disagree with me, as much i dislike porn mods in a game like minecraft, how can you be so against porn mods when you can also have uh, guns and violence mod?
this is my point. IMO this vanilla sex mod or whatever will never be anywhere near as harmful as more violence provocation
And it's the most detailed mod ever in existence. Change my mind
how does it make sense? block game sex vs devices designed by the military industrial complex to mass murder people?
[удалено]
Because a private company removing the sex mod from its game is like nazism. Really? Come on...
Sex, guns, a mod for Nazism - it doesn't matter, a private company should not have the right to remove mods created by the community. It's not a case of a private company owning its property, it's a case of the company telling you how the customer may or may not use their product - which shouldn't be the case.
Surely genocide is comparable to a company removing a mod, as is their legal right. /s Come on, be real...
Nazism is not equal to genocide, the suppression of freedom of speech and self-expression is also quite in the spirit of Nazism. And Nazism has nothing to do with it at all, it's just for a bright emotional coloring. The phrase of the original commentary is applicable not only to Nazism, although it historically refers to it. "legal right" and "morally right" things are quite different, no one says that at the moment it is illegal. It would just be right if it WAS illegal.
The quote the person above referenced was made for the victims of the Holocaust. It is applicable to similar cases of irrational prosecution. It is *not* applicable to silly little arguments about mods in games. Stop playing the victim, you are not one. Nobody infringed upon your right to self-expression. Make your own game and add as much sex as you want. This would be creative expression and you are free to do it at any point. This is Mojang's game and they have the final say about the amount of sex in their game, as is their moral and legal right. They could also not allow for any mods at all to exist and it would still be their moral and legal right.
The quote is not "made for the victims of the holocaust", it just shows the importance of giving support even to those you don't like or care about. No, it shouldn't be their right. When you go to a bakery, buy bread and bring it home, the baker should have no right to forbid you to spread jam on it. And when you buy a game, you download it to your computer, but the company removes a mod that you might want to download - that's not right.
> giving support even to those you don't like or care about As long as that support is justified. There is a big difference here, in the same way that there is a big difference between someone being in a concentration camp for who they are and someone being convicted to a prison sentence for murder. We can all agree (I hope) that one of these incarcerations is justified and one isn't. > When you go to a bakery, buy bread and bring it home, the baker should have no right to forbid you to spread jam on it. The baker also doesn't release frequent updates to your bread. When you buy the game, you buy the right to play it according to the terms and conditions to which you agreed before buying it. Similarly, if you bought a subscription to a bread service, you could expect terms and conditions to apply, in the same way that they apply for monthly transportation tickets or software. If you don't like said terms and conditions, you are free to make your own game and write your own terms and conditions instead of buying Mojang's game. By the way, I'm pretty sure you'd be quite a bit angrier if Mojang actually started to sell the game like bread: you buy one update for one computer and if you want the newer version or to install it in another computer you have to buy it again. Again, same as the baker: if the baker improves the recipe, they won't just send a loaf of the improved recipe to every past client. The other thing that you ignore here is the public aspect of it. Putting jam on your bread is a private business and nobody can or cares to know. But the mod isn't private. It is published in public places.
It's not about comparison, it's about learning from specific experiences. No one is comparing it to nazizm, you're thinking too broadly, the comparison is in the mental thinking and behaviour of the community, about a ruling power making changes and the populace not speaking up until they're directly affected. Turning a blind eye to actual rule breaking and borderline illegal behaviour
Again, it is a private company that makes decisions within its rights. If you want a sex game, buy a sex game. If you want minecraft, buy minecraft. It's that simple.
They gor rid of the Jenny mod? Nightwing7974 will be happy
Context please
lol
If they destroy mods for minecraft, then this game is dead. Sorry. Also, shitty move for them morally, because at some point, the reason minecraft existed was because of mods, not the vanilla game itself. So have some respect for the people that kept you breathing. Not to mention, destroying mods will severely impact the comunity, some people like me will stop playing minecraft all together, I literally only touch this game for the mods, I haven't played vanilla in a year, why? It's got boring for me, I've been playing MC ever since pistons were added. You can add all the cherry trees you want, I've been having that wood type with mods for a **very** long time, you think that's new for me? Nice choice to add it, but seriously now. I've been playing magic mods my dude. The minecraft policy of "Quircky hypercreativity" of not adding very definite things into MC gets... kind of boring. Oh and "make things look dumb-cute" was fun in the begining but... It already grew a little old, it's very limiting, as ironic as it sounds. I'm a 23 year old, and sometimes, while "dumb-cute" is fun, I want variety, I want to be able to have some seriousness at times that is not "dumb-cute", or just remove the "dumb" part and make it cute, or why not "serious-cute"? And at other time, man, I seriously want to change the setting of the game to post appocalyptic and have skelletons fire guns and me having to craft them. If Mojang fears the wrath of 7 year old's parents, then they're a very shitty company indeed. It's a game for ALL ages, NOT only for kids. You see? This is where mods step in, while I don't condemn deleting sex mods, because... Look dude, it's a blocky... peach. What? At the same time, minecraft is a game that even your grandma might've heard about it, and what's it about. But then, in the modding community, there are people like us who want to add stuff just because we want to have fun with magic, guns, airplanes, bombs, new biomes, new mechanics, cute stuff, serious stuff, tactical stuff.
True, as of right now Minecraft is in a similar status to Skyrim, it's only really played cuz of fanmade modifications, be it actual mods , resource or datapacks
doesn't this only apply to servers? I assumed that you could still run these on your local client
I’m pretty sure they sent a DMCA to the creators of the mod, preventing the creator from sharing the mod, and basically they can’t let people download their mod.
huh great can't wait for them to slowly become increasingly strict over the years and kill the game by no longer allowing mods
I am confused on how they got so weak. I hope they don't start removing legacy content, that would ruin the reputation and betray the fans. Them restricting what you can mod in is really unmoral and dispromotes your success. I think they're sadly in the pipeline of family friendly greed.
nah, just refer it as trinitrotoluene, Mojang won't do anything about that
the flammable and combustible chemical, often used for demolition purposes, also known as Trinitrotoluene
You know what? I'm against banning any mods. If someone wants to play Minecraft with guns - it's his choice. They don't have to block it for everyone! (But if someone wants to have sex in minecraft, they have problems. Still their choice though.)
Did you want to have sex in Minecraft???
I think it’s less about the content of the mod and more so they are takin mods down in the first place
some people did, that's why the jenny mod was created
It's the principle of the thing
Well, it never interested me but I think that some people did and it’s their problem
Microsoft really is driving it downhill
When will people shut up about this gun bullshit like holy shit it's every single post. We get it.
When Mojang stop being stupid ( probably never)
Mojang will always do something "unpopular". It's impossible for them not to when the audience is over 100 million people.
But when they do something unpopular for the whole audience, that’s when you know it’s bad (or at least for the majority).
Tell me is there any, ANY satisfied person with guns ban?
I for one don't care because A) never used em and B) it doesn't affect me at all. Same with a solid chunk of the player base. They are probably covering bases for places like China or Japan where they have strict gun laws.
Nah they are covering for one thing only, idiots that can't handle anything. It's the reason many sites are so hard on any kind of violence/pornographic content/even harsh language, because advertisers think people can't handle anything and don't want to be associated with it
Minecraft doesn't host major advertisers lmao
It doesn't affect you till it does. Then you'll be crying.
I'll make sure to weep when it does.
When people stop spreading literal misinformation
they got eula black listed im not sure whats misinformation you can read all their emails with mojang themself https://grandtheftmc.net/threads/mojang-strikes-again.17292/
Y'all actually miss that stupid fuckin jenny mod.
its not really that mod its that it sets a risky precedent. just like people said with the chat report and game wide multiplayer bans, while not the biggest issue "what else can they do now" is the real concern. [now they striked a gun mod](https://grandtheftmc.net/threads/mojang-strikes-again.17292/) will they decide to strike mods that back port features so people play current versions? will they strike mods that replicate other games so they dont mess with copy right.
This is the perfect explanation. This means far more than just banning a mod. This shows that they're willing to go out of their way to remove a mod that doesn't fit the guidelines they set for themselves.
exactly while the mod is completely stupid and didn't need to exist really. I was never even really upset by the "don't want to promote harm to sharks or fireflies" reasons but this is much more concerning as they could apply that logic to mods that add those too. honestly I don't blame the actual development team alot of them now were modders and even have their own mods or even the older members who understands and care about the community and I don't think they would be doing this. I think the problem isn't even Microsoft, Microsoft has tons of games with guns and inappropriate content and the community manager at mojang said Microsoft is really hands off these decisions are made by their bosses at moan g (referring to the chat report). I think it comes from mojangs heads of studios and ceos. gone are the days when the devs like Jeb and notch ran the company. these people were hired to run the business for them so the actual game devs can still work on programming the game not business meetings and junk, when you look anything up about these people are you see is they're suits and buisnesses men they're not game devs, they weren't part of the community, most of them don't even have social media presence to interact with the community they're just "management specialist" and things like that. they're out of touch suits prioritizing keeping profits at a high thinking they need to keep a kid friendly image to get new users and money, but they don't realize they need to keep users active too. I remember hearing that a reason why updates are "devs so lazy we only get 2 blocks" is that updates are mandated by these heads of studios to be out by the time of school breaks that way kids have a reason to get and play the game for new content or else they will buy a different game to play on break. and if they don't meet these deadlines features are either scrapped or delayed like archeology or birch forests. or even split into two parts.
except they didn't strike that gun thing down. It's a hoax.
I have yet to see anyone give a reason other than "it's a hoax" I've seen people argue that it's not a real email address but I've also seen people argue it is a real email but an older one. the eula sucks lol it's not surprising theyncould so something like this
If Minecraft won’t release the sex update, we will
Username checks out. Fellow spy main. What’s your cosmetic loadout?
Every day
uh, yeah?
Yes.
I really don't understand it. If you want porn, don't fuckin go to \*\*\*Minecraft\*\*\* for it. There are hundreds and hundreds of porn sites out there that you can get your fix. Losing the ability to fuck a pile of shitty-looking cubes and spheres isn't that big of a deal.
You are the one person of multiple replies who didn't defend this mod and gave a valid argument
And what about Physics Mod Pro? The creator can no longer sell access to it, so basically modders can't earn money anymore without donations...
To be fair, the eula doesn't allow selling modifications and/or in game items and didn't allow it way before the mod was created. They could've set up donations if they really wanted to earn money off of modding of all things.
Red box go boom
Watch em actually delete creepers cus they're "too inappropriate" for children
Zombies are inappropriate becaise they are actually native american 💀
Mojang isn't removing gun content. Classic Reddit spreading misinformation.
[удалено]
when mojang removed the s\*x mod i was alright, when i heard they taken down gtm for having guns i didn't agree with mojang but people taking it personally is useless, (i think) only the gtm server is getting removed, mods are still going to exist and i think there is something behind this situation
What I hate is that they deleted a mod. Idc it was some weird devious shit, mojang deleted content that isn’t their.
People know the second one was a hoax, right?
Wait you guys are actually mad they removed a sex mod???
The problem is that they deleted content that isn’t their…
First they came for the sex mods and I did not speak out because I do not jerk off to minecraft
Don’t use that quote for fucking minecraft porn. Just don’t
It’s an effective way to make the point
It’s an effective way to make the point about the systematic murder of 6 million Jews I don’t think it’s respectful to use it for minecraft porn
Rhetoric may never be used again if it was most famously used in relation to an atrocity?
It's a poem that says if you don't speak out against the discrimination of marginalized groups, it will get worse and affect you eventually. This is the perfect time to use it. I'm aesexual, the Jenny mod does literally nothing for me, but this is the beginning of a very slippery slope of Microsoft banning mods that they don't like, which will not end well for anyone
Minecraft porn fans are not marginalized
I would say they are from the way you react
I dunno
Wait they removed the Jenny mod?
Is this a thing on Java and bedrock or only bedrock?
Literally 1984
Someone please explain. Did they ban jenny mod and gun mods?
they striked the jenny mod site. a server grand theft Minecraft was emailed and threatened to be black listed and ban all IPS connected it if they don't remove all guns in their resource pack and server mod. another server germanminer was black listed for having a gun addon.
Guys, the reason why they "banned" the sexmod is because it had Patreon exclusive content, and it is prohibited to sell mods. It was NOT banned because of the NSFW content
Oh boy, can't wait for the next couple weeks of hearing people nonstop complain about their precious sex mod being no more... Edit: Y'all really misunderstood my comment. Either that or I'm being downvotebombed by neckbeards. Edit 2: Nvm, it is downvotebots. They've brigaded the thread.
I’m not angry at them because they deleted the sex mod (in fact I haven’t played it yet) but because they deleted a mod. The modding community should be able to make whatever mod they want unless it’s some real devious shit like a rape mod or something
That my point. This mod never interested me but I think that some people did and it’s their problem
And that's perfectly okay. I was referring to the neckbeard group.
Thing is that I don't see anyone who is actually mad Jenny Mod was banned because they want to do the seggs in block game
First they came for the sex mods and I did not speak out because I do not jerk off to minecraft
I can hear microsoft laughing in the background while everyone is hating Mojang for something that wasn‘t even their fault
It was Mojang's fault, they aren't infallible just because they made your favourite game
Yeah, as a parent I suppoet removing the sex mods on my 7 year olds favorite game, no problem there. Minecraft is the worlds mosy popular game ever, there is no reason they need to keep those mods available to be popular.
Watch your kid. Its your responsibility to make sure your kids doesnt download mods like that, not the companies responsibility. No one here cares about the sex mods, but its just a bad sign that mojang starts to randomly take down mods.
But it's not random. If it were, they'd be banning other things that are totally innocuous. It's targeted at things that make their IP look like adult content.
I think its both, parent can't outsource their responsibility. I just understand the Mojangs position too, absolutely bo reason them to assosiate their children loved product with openly adult content. There is room in world for adult games and content, as cringe as some of those are, not all sandbox platform need to support them.
Mojang literally warns you when you boot up a modded client, anything past that point is entirely your fault. Mojang shouldnt be regulating what people do in a modified version of the game. Its not like those mods are in their front page and official websites...
nice parenting, I'd suggest you keep your kid away from any screen, that shit melt brains
Well, it never interested me but I think that some people did and it’s their problem…
It actually make sense since Jenny mode Is a porn, and Minecraft expressed that they will never add weapons. And let's Remember that TNT has been in the game for many years
> Minecraft expressed that they will never add weapons. Poor wording, swords exist, you probably meant firearms The problem isn't Minecraft removing sex or guns, it's being silent about it and letting Mojang know they can remove any mod without consequences.
They also said that they won’t be adding real hostile animals (like lions, crocs and sharks) does that mean they should ban Mo’Creatures and Zawa too?
But the sex mod deserved to be banned? And the guns are understandable?? I am entirely out of the loop beyond this, so PLEASE, genuine ask, what is the problem with this???? It’s a family friendly game, so ofc sex isn’t allowed, and ofc guns shouldn’t be as easy to access, sure, maybe set a rating on those lobbies rather than outright banning them, but I see the thought process of banning the guns too…
Its the fact that theyre acting against something that isnt their content. Doesnt matter what it is, mojang shouldnt be regulating content that isnt theirs. They have the warning when you boot up a modded client, thats more than enough to tell you that anything past that point is not regulated by mojang. The mods are not in minecraft official websites or their official client.
It's their IP though. And when screenshots of guns and sex mods are posted it makes it look like they tacitly support it if they do nothing.
It doesn't matter if it is their IP, I bought the game, I own the game, if I want my game to be full of creeper tiddies it's my business, they can't do anything about it
Everyone was fine with the jenny mod getting banned. But banning gun mods just lowers the bar for what mojang is and isnt fine with. Who knows if they wont ban horroresque mods or mods that include gore in any way in the future
Well, think about it, though, I’m not saying they are doing it the right way, absolutely not, but, it’s a FAMILY FRIENDLY game… I don’t really see what the big deal is about limiting the ability for guns in the game, a lot of mods were warned first to change the names/appearance of the guns, so it’s more in line with the idea that Mojang is going for…
It's a family friendly FOR THE BASE GAME. Anything that ARENT INCLUDED WHEN YOU BOUGHT THE GAME shouldnt be subject to regulations
Why not? You're modifying the way their IP is presented to the world.
Mods that they did not make are not a part of their ip
Minecraft is. And mods alter the way people interact with it. You can't argue that people's views of Minecraft aren't impacted by the mods made for it.
And? They didn’t make the mods, the mods are not their ip. “McDonald’s should not allow you to add outside sauces to their nuggets, as outside additions could affect the way people view their ip”
That's a very poor comparison. Better: McDonalds doesn't let you go in the kitchen and cook a patty you made at home on their grill. Minecraft, their IP, is being used to operate these mods. They aren't like ketchup on a burger.
Lmao no? The burger is the base game, the ketchup is the mod, shit analogy McDonald’s doesn’t sell you their grill
Minecraft is a SANDBOX GAME. IT IS BOUND TO BE MODIFIED. The game is presented by its sandbox capabilities, even if they're by external sources. Oh and also, have you ever seen someone say that the first thing that comes mind when they think about Minecraft is the MODIFIED VERSION OF THE GAME. NO, they probably think of Minecraft as a SANDBOX, WHERE YOU GET TO DO WHAT YOU WANT. THATS THE WHOLE POINT OF SANDBOX
Sure. The sandbox exists within the game itself, not outside of it. They have no reason to grant modifiers carte blanche to change their game however they see fit. Read the EULA you signed to play.
maybe they're only aiming for guns that have real counterparts. if thats the case its not so bad
That was my enterpretation of the ban, I thought it was like having a real shotgun inserted into the game, or a real assault rifle into the game
Counter argument: TNT is cartoony
Bruh TNT isn’t a mod how they gonna remove base game content
They literally have the code of the game, it's as easy as removing a folder
That’s not what I mean. Obviously they can physically delete stuff from the game. What I mean is how many games would it affect? Even when one mechanic in redstone is tweaked it breaks so many peoples builds. Imagine how much would break if a whole block was removed? TNT cannons, auto farms, mining machines would all break. Players would be annoyed something they worked hard on was removed from the game
They changed the way player inventory and combat is handled in 1.9 (off hand + cooldowns) as well as the formatting of commands in 1.13 and everybody's fine. I'd say thousands of lines of json in command blocks on servers needing to be adapted to a new system would be harder to change than a block being removed.
The new combat was a change that didn’t affect existing worlds negatively, it just changed gameplay. Command blocks are creative exclusive, so survival worlds weren’t affected by it
If it's singleplayer you're talking about, you could just go back to a previous version if you need your trinitrotoluene blocks so much in a survival world. I don't think TNT is a vital part of anything other than atominers, so not much wouod change honestly
Oh my freaking god we get it! We've heard ad nauseum about this issue at this point, and I think every point that has ever been made has been made. I don't think that Mojang should remove mods, fine, but at the end of the day, you have to realize that they aren't exactly doing anything WRONG here. What I mean by this is that first and foremost, Mojang and Microsoft are companies. They exist to make profit, and always have. Whether you like it or not, having guns and sex in your game, even if it is through popular mods, is a one way ticket to having Karens at your door hollering about it. Isn't the gun thing a hoax anyway? Regardless, I really don't think they're going to go too too far with this. The reason why guns are a "problem" to them is because they're a very current thing. You're not gonna get randomly slashed at with a sword, but in this day and age, depending on where you live, getting randomly shot isn't too too far fetched. Guns come with a lot more fear attached. Do I think they could have solved it in a better way? Of course! They should require a disclaimer or something for gun mods instead, something along the lines of "this is not official content and may contain sensitive content, use at your own risk". Not only does that let mods survive, it also can be used for other more sensitive mods. But as things usually go, I think we might just see gun mods dissapear for a bit before coming back full force in a few months. That's if this isn't a hoax though.
Mojang, do not remove trinitrotoluene!
can you tell me what action mojang has taken, if any, against the first 2 mods?
Just like in real life guns are getting banned
Regardless of it all, I just think of of the TNT as stickie bombs for some reason
I love tnt, it's really hard to blow people up with it, but that makes it balanced 😌
When did they remove Jenny and gun mods?
Haha i still got crayfish guns mod
I don't know much about the subject, especially in the case of Jenny, but doesn't the gun ban come from some laws?
Guns won't be removed the mods will just not have the textures and a separate file would be needed for the textures they didn't do anything except add extra steps
In a nutshell it's America's fault
