List of mod makers breaking Curse's TOS

Note: This list is incomplete. It'll be expanded as time goes on. Feel free to comment below with a link to your Curse profile to help me expand the list.

So apparently Curse has this ridiculous term on their TOS (archived at the time of making this gist):

APNG Sucks!

Hi! Let's talk about APNG! Note that I'm biased because I made my own animated PNG extension and it also sucks.

Problems with APNG

So, APNG has the following issues:

-- This Lua stack may be faster than the vararg stack, since it does less copies. Haven't benchmarked it yet.
-- However, it can't hold as many elements (13 000 ish elements on my machine, vs uh, 100 000 or more with varargs?).

local function callstack()
  local function f(v)
    local op, nv = coroutine.yield()
    while true do
      if op == "push" then
        op, nv = coroutine.yield(f(nv))
      elseif op == "pop" then

ROT13-UTF-8 is a semi-backwards-compatible encoding for text data.

ROT13-UTF-8 replaces the characters represented by bytes 0x41-0x4D, 0x4E-0x5A and 0x61-0x6D, 0x6E-0x7A in UTF-8 with characters U+004E-U+005A, U+0041-U+004D and U+006E- U+007A, U+0061-U+006D, respectively.

The Unix Time Manifesto

WIP

I am an user of Unix Time IRL. My hexchat outputs timestamps using the %s time format string. This means every message looks like [1526856826] * End of /MOTD command. or similar.

I just like it that way.
