I doubt it. If Microsoft were trying to stop modding, this site would be gone by now.

Well see, Custom Edition modding is different then modding :) im off the hook.

but anyways all this is saying is...you must give credit to microsoft gaming videos...you cant draw boobs out of logs on bloodgulch, and you cant have racist mods.... (in a nutshell)

Fricking do it anyways what are they going to do??? They don't have your real name they don't have your address, they don't have a fricking thing. And give it a rest, thats what CE is for duh!!

EDIT:
I think andrew is right, they just don't want you to put vids everywhere that you try to get money for that include some bad stuff. But that part about not posting it on a sponsored site was rediculous. You shouldn't worry about it in my opinion, microsoft is just trying to scare you away from what they are deathly afraid of.... COMPETITION. And trust me, you are not competition as long as your mods don't leave the modding circle. But when I said that it was stupid to ask them it was... I was not directly accusing you of asking them, I was saying whoever did was and idiot. Microsoft will always say no, and try to make sure that you obey with bullying tactics. If you don't want to hear no, DON'T ASK. They very subtly said "absolutely not" if you look carefully.
