FAQs, Readme files, and Information posted in a mods "publishing post" are not just for looks. A modder doesnt go through the trouble of typing any form of documentation for no reason at all.

Please read a mods Publishing post before downloading. Don't just click the download link and expect the mod to do something it wasn't intended to do. In addition, consult a mods readme file or FAQ before asking a question.

For the last couple weeks, i think alot of modders (including myself) have been doing this:

That is all.

Thank you for your attention.

The bad news: I did exactly that with JScones' latest release a couple of days ago.

The good news: I realized what I had done and altered my post to make fun of myself for doing it.

Still RTFM seems to be more and more common these days.

Don't you hate it when know one reads the readme. Then, posts saying they have a problem, that was explained in the readme.

By the way how can a Frenchman have a Scottish Accent? (Number 1, set course for the Neutral Zone.)

Yes, but we also hate it when someone feels the need to quote an entire post, including pictures.
