    File Downloads

    http://www.somewelshguy.com/

    Hey there,
    My site is a personal blog, and also a little showcase of the various mods I've made for different games. I understand that file hosting is forbidden as per the TOS, however it states that if the files are relevant to what the site is about, then it's allowed.

    I'm planning on uploading my mods (3 of them at the moment) to the appropriate description pages, giving users a chance to download the mods as well as view a few small screenshots and a description.

    The issue is that there may be a bit of traffic from downloading these mods. Not constant, however when I release a new version there tends to be a bit of a rush, before dying down to normal levels. I understand bandwidth is "unlimited", so is this allowed under the TOS?

    I'm not using my site as a file host, just simply uploading 3 files, giving them a page, and adding them to my personal blog, where there may be a bit of traffic from time to time. I just want to clarify this is allowed.

    Thank you,
    Josh

    Re: File Downloads

    Sounds fine to me; the TOS explicitly states under file hosting that you're able to redistribute software you've made and are giving away. Mods for games that you've made would fall under this, so it's fine.

    Where it gets iffy is if you let OTHER people host their mods on your system, but doesn't sound like you have plans to do that, so you're golden


    TOS breakers will be suspended regardless of race, creed, national origin, hair color, or favorite food. Thanks for your understanding!
