Rejected upload

Today I uploaded my compilation of addons and it got rejected/deleted. I'm not here to whine about that part, it's your website and you decide what comes on here and not I'm just curious about the reason, so I can work on it for the future.

Thanks in advance.

Some things to think about ...

- Does it contain an addon that the author/developer prohibits from being used without his/her permission??

- Does it contain any unauthorized files like .exe ??

- Is it in .zip format? I believe that's the only format allowed anyway. Not to sure if .rar or .7z is allowed here.

Hopefully this can help until you get official word as to why.

I think there was also something regarding WoWMatrix, but I am not sure what it was. Should be on the forums here.

Nightspirit - I did not take care of your compilation, but check your PM's. Any time we reject an upload, we send a PM stating why and how it can be fixed.

That was one of the things I forgot to mention.

I believe Wowmatrix adds some file to your addon folders. Not too sure don't use it and never will.

WoWMatrix's use is pretty much frowned upon here for many reasons. As you can read here.
