this:

After thorough investigating by multiple members of staff on the network (not just those on Armada Files) we have come to the conclusion the proposed 1.2 Patch cannot be hosted by the Filefront Network... As Fleet Operations uses the same system, this too is in breach and has been removed. ...
We ask that users do not distribute the above mentioned articles on Filefront (as in, trying to get it put back up on the site or through the forums). Such action will be treated with a severe penalty, likely involving a temporary or permanent ban from the site(s), depending on the severity of the offense.

and because the patch project news i sent to you were never posted.

We have no record of the news in our mail. If it's not there, we can't post it. I recommend re-sending it.

i have posted it in the "Armada2Files MOD News" thread here in the forums. anyway, that then explains where my assumption comes from i hope

Ah, sorry. Missed that one.

EDIT:

Viewable here.

edit: ok, the news post explains it

thanks for posting

Oops. Sorry, I didn't notice it there.

Anyway I thought it might be worthwhile to clarify the language we used as I am not sure how it translates into german and it may be confusing the issue somewhat.

In short, It should be read to say that we cannot host the file in its current state and users should not post links to the download on the website/forum. (as in, create another download page in a comments section/forum thread)

what hes saying is this

u can talk bout the mod on the forums all you want but no hosting of the mod will be allowed

[Freyr]

yep, exactly.

Short and sweet, 381 words into 21.

hehe, read that wrong, sorry about this
anyway, just sent a revised patch version to you

Not trying to be annoying, I understand the decision. But I also want to look at this in a bigger picture, this file is a small part of a big mod which is one of many mods for one game in a network with many games and thousands of mods. As far as I see it, nobody would care/notic if it stayed, but I do understand you have to take every precaution for those "one in a million" things. Its too bad though, I download all my mods for armada 2 from this site and it rocks, I'm hoping this isn't the first of a chain of new rules/mod bans.
