Simple Question Regarding Mods in Servers

[Wumbo]

Hello, I just have a quick question about using mods in servers:

If certain mods say that it can't be reproduced or copied without the owner's permission, does that mean I can't use it on a server without breaking some sort of rule? Also, if I have to make extra downloads so those same mods can be downloaded for a server, would that be breaking a rule, too?

Using any sort of mod in your server is perfectly fine.

That message is meant for the modding community, not the Master Server. It's there to discourage people from stealing code or graphics from mods, not to stop you from using it in netgames.

Also, if I have to make extra downloads so those same mods can be downloaded for a server, would that be breaking a rule, too?

You mean advertising download links to mods that you're using in your server? That's fine.
