What is your stance on mods that would be client side only in the Persistent Universe?Like the tmorph add-on for World of Warcraft which allows you to look like any race, gender, gear set-up, etc. I know that these mods could be used to abuse certain loopholes in coding within the game, but I still am curious if something like this would be allowed or considered a ban-able offense in either case of being used for fun or attempting to abuse the game.asked by Cinderz

TL;DRClient-side mods giving any advantage or altering code would be bannable, but purely cosmetic ones with no gameplay effect would probably be tolerated, depending on the situation and intent.

I think our opinion on it would be all to do with whether you are trying to cheat or circumvent the game.Anything that you're doing to give you an advantage against other players is unfair because you've modified the code, or anything like that, would definitely be a bannable offense, but if you just did something cosmetic that would only be clan side and it had no effect on the Persistent Universe, the gameplay, or anything like that, if we found it we probably would say ok, that's fine. It's really just what you're doing, what your intent is.Having said, that, we're also hoping or planning, we're working on the tech right now, to have some of the stuff like... to be able to change your look and view with various morphs and all the rest of the stuff. So I guess the answer would all depend on the situation and the use of the mod.
