Welcome to The Modding Blacklist
Shining a Light on the Dark Side of Farming Simulator Modding
The Farming Simulator community thrives on creativity and collaboration, with thousands of talented modders offering incredible content that enhances the gameplay experience. However, not all modders play by the rules. Giants Software’s Terms of Service explicitly prohibit charging for mods or locking them behind paywalls—but some individuals exploit the community by doing just that.
The Modding Blacklist exists to expose and educate. Here, we document modders who disregard these rules, engage in deceptive practices, or use paywalls and other exploitative tactics to profit at the expense of the community. Our goal is to promote transparency, fairness, and adherence to Giants Software’s guidelines.
What You’ll Find Here
• Scammer Modders Database: A list of modders and groups that charge for mods, backed by evidence and sources.
• Educational Resources: Learn about Giants Software’s modding rules, how to spot scams, and what you can do to help.
• Community Stories: Hear from players and ethical modders about their experiences dealing with paywalls, fake mods, and more.
• Blog: Regular updates on the latest scams, trends, and news in the Farming Simulator modding world.
• How to Report a Scammer: A guide for submitting evidence of scam activity to Giants Software and us.
Why It Matters
Mods are meant to be free. Charging for mods goes against the spirit of the Farming Simulator community and undermines trust between players and creators. By calling out these bad actors, we hope to protect the integrity of the community and ensure everyone can enjoy mods without being taken advantage of.
Join the Fight
We can’t do this alone. If you’ve encountered a mod locked behind a paywall or a modder charging for access, let us know! Together, we can make the Farming Simulator community safer and fairer for everyone.
