When someone runs a server with a mod that people don't have it shows up as VERSION MISMATCH so NO ONE can tell WHAT THE H3LL THE SERVER IS RUNNING.

This MUST be patched. When a server has a mod package running in the information at the bottom it NEEDS to have the name of the mod, the version of the mod, and were to download it.

Mod name, ver, and URL should be something the coder types in. When a mod is exported a prompt should come up asking for that info.

This is EXTREMELY important. It MUST be patched. Spreading the word about a mod ISN'T enough. Many many people DO NOT go to the forums, and the ones that do mostly just come twice a week. You cannot make the name of a server the URL because it is always VERSION MISMATCH.
People CANNOT put 200 mods on there harddrives because almost all of them at 25+megs, and almost everyone of them sucks.
Unless you feel like finding out what mods servers are running every 5 minutes in putting it in the MOTD.

wtf, how is dev gonna know where you got the mod from, he cant just put up random urls. if you get vermismatch, then ppl know its a mod. it would be nice to put the name of the .pkg but the way you are asking for it, you sound desperate and dev dont need to waste his time correcting it. he gives mod support, but he doesnt push mods or maps like he said. he gave you support, and thats the mod tools. go back and read the psots or search for it. what he means also, that he isnt gonna fix this, because he would be promoting everyones mods, and Westwood dont need a lawsuit because someones mod screwed someones system. Youll just have to post it here and hope people see it. Thats all.
