Thumbs up

I'm slightly amazed at both the hate for and against WM.

Personally, I'm in agreement with Tek. The alteration of files is a big no-no for a mass distribution center such as WM was trying to be.

I, however, am guilty of downloading mods and uploading them to my UniAdmin page, so I can get my addons from any machine I'm at. But I am not guilty for the stated deep-linking that WM is charged with. I, like many others, manually download addons, and when the servers are hit hard, I feel it just as bad.

While I dislike the Curse website (general statement of design and navigation, not a dislike of Curse as a whole), I agree that everyone should be on the same page when it comes to stopping malicious behavior. Bandwidth should be given to the individual who comes to the website, not some script that gets initiated by the push of a button.
