answer: `No, we provide a platform for creators to share their mods,
|
|

ensuring they remain free from our control or censorship.`

question: 'How do you assure security of game mod files that someone downloads?',
|
2024-08-18 18:43:37 +00:00

answer: `We don't assure security directly. However, we provide a reaction
|

|
system to help users gauge the safety of download links, and mod creators
|

are encouraged to include scan links.`

question: "Why are you quoting 'account'?",
|
2024-08-18 18:43:37 +00:00

answer: `We use 'account' in quotes because technically you're generating a

key pair, not creating a traditional account. The next FAQ explains more.`

|
2024-08-18 18:43:37 +00:00
|
|
|
answer: `Due to the decentralized nature of Nostr, accounts are linked to
|
|
|
|
cryptographic keys that can't be changed or banned. We can mute accounts
|
|
|
|
and filter content, but cannot directly censor or ban.`

|
hide content on the site, but it remains accessible elsewhere.`

|
|
|
|
answer: `Bitcoin is used for its accessibility, decentralization, and privacy.
|

Traditional methods can be restrictive and susceptible to control or censorship.`

Never get your game mods censored, get banned, lose your
|
|
|
|
history, nor lose the connection between creators and fans.
|
|
|
|
Find the game mod you want and download it. Gamers and
|
|
|
|
developers are getting censored and suppressed, and this is
|
|
|
|
an attempt to stop it.

DEG Mods (Decentralized Game Mods) is an actual platform

where game mod creators can thrive without the fear of

censorship, bans, or losing their connection with fans. Game

well, we literally can't fuck with them.

What's the story with DEG Mods?
|
|
|
|
</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p className='LearnTextPara'>
|
|
|
|
The idea behind DEG Mods was born out of frustration with
|
|
|
|
the widespread censorship and control imposed on game mods
|
|
|
|
across various platforms. Many mod creators faced bans, lost
|
|
|
|
their work, and had their voices silenced by platforms
|
|
|
|
imposing their ideals. DEG Mods aims to change that
|
|
|
|
narrative by being developed on Nostr, a revolutionary new
|
|
|
|
communications protocol.{' '}

<h3 className='LearnTextHeading'>
|
|
|
|
Real quick though. What's Nostr?
|
|
|
|
</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p className='LearnTextPara'>
|
|
|
|
Nostr is a communications protocol that makes it extremely
|
|
|
|
hard for anyone to censor anyone's data, and can never have
|
|
|
|
your "account" get "banned". Nostr ensures that even this
|
|
|
|
site's creators cannot censor mods or ban anyone directly.
|
|
|
|
<br />

|
|
|

|
|
|
|
<h3 className='LearnTextHeading'>How DEG Mods Works</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p className='LearnTextPara'>
|
|
|
|
Unlike traditional mod hosting platforms, DEG Mods doesn't
|
|
|
|
host any files. Think of it as a browser, presenting game
|
|
|
|
mods published by their creators. Mod creators provide
|
|
|
|
direct download links on their mod pages, allowing gamers to
|
|
|
|
access the mods effortlessly. If a link breaks or gets
|
|
|
|
censored, mod creators can remove that link and add another,
|
|
|
|
and people can rate download links based on if they're
|
|
|
|
working and virus free. A public regulating system.
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
Also, everything is open sourced. Even if the site were to
|
|
|
|
shut down, someone can simply take the same code and run it
|
|
|
|
under a different name, and every mod would still be
|
|
|
|
accessible, along with their links, reactions/ratings, and
|
|
|
|
comments.
|
|
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<h3 className='LearnTextHeading'>Tips / Donations</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p className='LearnTextPara'>
|
|
|
|
DEG Mods supports hassle-free money transfers for modders.
|
|
|
|
Fans can show their appreciation by directly tipping mod
|
|
|
|
creators via Bitcoin through the Lightning Network, an
|
|
|
|
action known as Zapping. Support creators so they can
|
|
|
|
continue making more valuable game mods!

We know. You don't have to use it. Nothing is reliant on it
|
|
|
|
on this platform/site. Pretend its not even there. We're not
|
|
|
|
even making any money out of this project/site, in-fact,
|
|
|
|
we're running at a loss (unless direct donations/tips covers
|
2024-08-18 18:21:04 +00:00
|
|
|
it, and/or we managed to add reasonable monetization systems
|
|
|
|
to help cover further development and maintenance costs).
|
|
|
|
This is just a passion project to help free (liberate)
|
2024-07-11 15:09:47 +00:00
|
|
|
game mods and their creators, and this part potentially
|
|
|
|
helps them financially, even those in other countries where
|
|
|
|
"normal" methods of money payment/transfer are not an
|
|
|
|
option. You can just find the mod you want and download it,
|
|
|
|
or upload the mod you've created, and never even touch
|
|
|
|
Bitcoin.

DEG Mods is a response to censorship and oppression, to
|
|
|
|
bring freedom and not hinder people's desires and
|
|
|
|
creativity. If you know a mod creator that's being censored,
|
|
|
|
then show them the way. Gamers just want to game in peace...

So, What is DEG Mods?

|
|
<br />
|

</h3>
|
|
|
|
<p className='LearnTextPara'>
|
|
|
|
DEG Mods is an open-source game mods browser (you can stop
|
|
|
|
right here if you want) of what's uploaded on servers owned
|
|
|
|
by unrelated people around the world. That's the appropriate
|
|
|
|
description.

For what some people might call it:
|
|
|
|
<br />
|
|
|
|
"It's a game mods website."
