Holy shit, I can't even imagine the amount of mods that will get erased. There were so many fan-mods, maps, minigames, models... Fucking Nintendo...

Apparently it's not even Nintendo, but trolls. Just that this is such a Nintendo thing to do that GMod doesn't want to even risk it

EDIT: So the domain is owned by MarkMonitor, a service that monitors for copyright infringement and sends DMCAs. Nintendo HAS used them before. So that clears up any confusion there

Where do you get that from?

They got it from a twitter post that never bothered looking up who owns the domain. The domain is owned by Nintendo of America Inc not some internet troll.

I know, I just provided the link, thanks for the clarification though

I wonder if the "it's just trolls, not Nintendo" misinformation is actually disinformation also coming from Nintendo...

[–] xkforce 11 points 7 months ago

The domain is owned by nintendo.

Look up mm-nintindo.com on the icann search: https://lookup.icann.org/en/lookup
