Mind rule #5 of General Rules, any image shown in the mod page should not be NSFW. ##### 5. Make sure your mod name and description accurately describes the mod's purpose. Exceptions are made for joke mods, but make sure to tag them as such. Mod names and images should not be misleading or clickbaity. ##### 6. Do not update your mods for the sole purpose of bumping your mod to the top of the submission list. ##### 7. Your mod must be open source.

Your music mods go through a process of approval before they're allowed to be public. Exceptions are made when permission is given by the musician/publisher to use their music. We still have the right to reject mods or take down existing ones if we find that it cannot be in the site for various copyright reasons. ------ Other Things to Consider * Consecutive offenses will result in longer ban lengths. This includes evading bans. * We change our rules occasionally and sometimes we miss on checking some mods, we don't have bots to do this job and it takes time to discuss certain mods if they break our rules or not. * Please do not compare your case to other cases.
