as a person who makes mods, we don’t like it when our mods get stolen, all the hard work we did… stolen.

noone likes it when their work gets stolen. So it’s not exactly a nerd, even the “cool kids” don’t like it when their style gets stolen and other people think of the person who “stole” it better than the “original”.

PTFan is just being rational, and an empathetic and reasonable person to talk to.
