I'd rather see modders open Patreons, it seems to work well for other artists. People who used to support themselves with commissions are now able to stop doing them, and are getting more money than before.
Steam Greenlight has set a bad tone for things like this. I can only imagine abuse with a few shining examples.
What about mods with dependencies? Lots of the more "in-depth" mods for Fallout/Skyrim require Script Extender mods, do those modders get a cut? What if those fundamental mod tools become paid as well?
@cale: the word "agenda" refers to the argument in the entirety of this instance. Please don't project your politics onto other people.
What politics might you be referring to? I have no strong opinion one way or the other. Also, your reading of a particular word isn't universally applicable no matter how hard you might like to believe, so you know, there's that. In fact, what I said holds true regardless of whether Jeff used the words 'agenda' or 'personal opinion'.
Your point is silly, it doesn't really matter either way. In the end Jeff felt it was "annoying" and that's a valid opinion regardless of scope without being a "punk ass".
