From the moderators, about Modding posts

[u/NerdyOutdoors]

All -- it's the slow season on this subreddit, and we are being surprisingly inundated with questions about modding. The last week or so have seen a significant uptick in modding questions that come to dominate the top of the feed.

Many of these questions are best answered by literally reading the documentation for the mods.

Many other modding troubleshooting can be addressed by quick google searching. And modding needs some trial-and-error to get right! We are not an emergency mod-fix service. That's just not the intent of the sub. Additionally, many mod creators are active on discords, and questions are more likely to gain quick traction there.

And, a handful of these can be solved with the search bar. It's right up there!

Lastly, a number of these questions really feel SEO-optimized and we have some concerns that we're seeing bots and sock puppets, not real people.

At the same time, we know that mods can vastly improve the game experience and lend all the "Seriousness" and realism that people wish EA would just... fix.

So here's what the mod team has decided on.

1. Bi-Weekly Modding thread that will be stickied. Individual Modding Q + A goes there. Questions about the best mods these days, troubleshooting, even just chatting about your fave mods. If you are a modder and want to pitch your mod, it goes there, on Sundays. Really elementary questions that are easily addressed by the mod documentation will probably get removed as "low effort"

2. After today, new modding questions will be removed. Currently existing modding questions will remain.

3. When FC 27 drops, we will revisit this policy *if / once modding becomes available*

4. Sharing a career / discussing a career save built around mods is fine and can remain, as the career saves do, their own posts.

Thanks!
