Wabbajack Policy on Monetisation

YOU CANNOT:

  • Have modlists be behind a paywall. This includes access to any form of early release, test build, etc, based on donations or monetary payment.
  • Have paywalled modlist support. This includes exclusive support, 2 tiered support, priority support or any other nomenclature for walling user support either partially or fully behind a paywall.
  • Use donation based discord roles to avoid the other rules listed here.
  • Enable Donation points on Nexus for the Wabbajack file, or any resources which are only usable within the modlist (Patcher outputs, LODs, etc). This is a Nexus policy.

YOU CAN:

  • You can use donation systems. Patreon, Discord, Ko-Fi, etc. You MUST follow all other paywall rules mentioned here.
  • You are allowed to have developer builds or testing builds. These cannot be distributed on the basis of donations.
  • You can paywall "modding lessons" or something of the like that is advertised through your modlist community but not technically related to WJ except tangentially.
    • To ensure there is no abuse of this, we require you add Wabbajack admins to view these channels so we can ensure you are not paywalling content or support.
  • You can paywall content creation (e.g. YouTube, private streams) based on your modlist and development of it.
  • You can take paid commissions for modlists or additions to modlists. YOU MUST comply with the other rules with commissions. This is at the modlist developers descretion and is directly their responsibility. The Wabbajack team takes no responsibility for any paid for commissions made between a user and a modlist developer.
  • All commissioned work must be freely available immediately (Nexus, GitHub, Publicly on Discord, etc.) Ask if you have an idea and are not sure whether your preferred method of provision complies. We have tried to be open and allow for rules that allow modlist developers to make money from their work if they wish, without compromising Wabbajack and what it stands for. Please ask if you are unsure of any of the rules laid out here.
  • Enable Donation Points on mods & patches you create for the list which are usable outside of the modlist. Nexus considers these mods of general use, thus can have DP enabled on them.

This policy applies to ALL modlists compiled with Wabbajack and is not limited to lists with featured status.

All violations of the above will be considered serious violations of ToS and the admin team reserves the right to completely remove modlists which are in violation of our Terms of Service.
