Chunkbin was once partnered with Pixelmon for mod development, but when he made this mod, they didn't like it, saying users were "cheating." He had a different point of view, and Pixelmon cut the partnership, telling him to never use their code again.
Chunkbin remade PokeRadar to not use any Pixelmon code, but Pixelmon still didn't like the mod. They started sneaking in updates to crash the game if someone had PR installed alongside. Mojang called them out on this, and Pixelmon backed off so that servers would simply block clients using PokeRadar.
People using PokeRadar wanted to use it on servers, and they complained to Chunkbin. For the sake of his users, Chunkbin made the mod untraceable by Pixelmon, so they couldn't block it. Pixelmon didn't like this one bit, and brought in the lawyers, claiming Chunkbin had infringed on their "copyrighted" code. A Cease and Desist came out, which Cunkbin tried to argue. However, Pixelmon has gotten a lot of money via donations and 2 layers of Adfly, and were able to win the lawsuit.
This is the aftermath: Chunkbin was forced to quit, the site went down, and Pixelmon refuses to say anything about what happened.
Another situation involves the Mafia and murder, but is highly less likely.
The result is the same: no more PokeRadar for anyone. Ever again.
Have a nice day.
Nice story.
But...
Chunk has college. He's busy and sees no reason to carry on with Pokeradar. There was never a parternership, he never had access to our code, never any lawsuit, mod was never untraceable, he didn't copy code, there was no crashing if Pokeradar was installed.
Quote from Skydaz�I wont be posting the download on the site, users will have to go to the original mod thread for the download. Same will be with any other mod that the modder does not want an installer for or the license does not allow it.
Quote from Reikajump Count me and my 19 or so mods as another. I have had users come to me complaining about your installers failing to work with my mods, and I do not allow anyone but me, aside from previously approved modpacks, to distribute them. Also, the ease-of-installation argument holds no ground with me, because I have zero respect or sympathy for someone too incompetent to drag and drop a file, and for four of my mods, anyone not able to install it properly will not be able to use the mod either, something made abundantly clear by the kind of "bug reports" they post ("machine no run on IC2, why broken?").
'Content' in that section are the worlds you play in, nothing more, nothing less.Imagine how boring the game would be if you couldn't actually place blocks or interact with the world because Minecraft itself wouldn't be able to change it. Servers would be rather boring too if the MinecraftServer wouldn't be able to distribute a world to other players.

Sounding a little butthurt there. Got a valid arguement? Take it to a lawyer. Home address is available through Pixelmon Mod. If you haven't got anything lawfully viable, don't waste your time with this thread.
Man.... that was a difficult one. We don't stop you playing single player whatsoever, no collect data as such. As for servers, that option makes it their decision. Not yours, not ours. Stop throwing out accusations where they are not due.
Secondly. Read Minecrafts Terms of Service, completely, before you make assumptions. Somehow you went from 'this may be' to 'this is totally not allowed'.

Modifications to the Game ("Mods") (including pre-run Mods and in-memory Mods) and plugins for the Game also belong to you and you can do whatever you want with them, as long as you don‘t sell them for money / try to make money from them.

It's completely absurd. It's down to the mod author to decide who their distribution works, no one elses.

I'm not even sure how to respond to that.
Were you trying to crack a joke? Wrong place.

You wasted your time with that 'Pixelfix'. If you had taken the time to actually load the mod -
