An idea for bug reports

Hello ProMods,
I had an idea to create an incompatible mods thread in the troubleshooting (gameplay issues and bug reports), however I do realize this may be a tough task.

Sometimes when I read the bug reports, I see the source of some problems being incompatible mods. So I was thinking that if people could check an incompatible mods sticky thread, then they would be prepared to remove the mods.

Users could also add replies to the thread if they find incompatible mods, with the list growing and growing.

This is just only a suggestion, and I'm probably missing something in this post.

This thread actually exists and it was made by me, however I didn't update it or several months...
An ideal bug report would be with ProMods being the only active mod, but that's very rare to see ;)

It's the thread with name "Mods colliding with ProMods".

Sorry about that, I hadn't seen it and forgot to search it up.

My apologies. Perhaps we could keep it up and running?

We must / have to keep it up to date. Or nothing says we must/have to keep it up to date but it's highly recommendable.

Thanks guys, I've decided to help keep Zelva's thread alive, so I'll look through some bug reports with incompatible mods if they appear.

The majority of all bug reports and crashes are caused by mods or mod combinations we have nothing to do with.
Yet people still come here for free support and claim that it's crashing because of ProMods.
Maybe we should draw a hard line and just stop helping people with crashes until they run vanilla+PM only.

No problem ScuL. As soon as they provide game.log, all users can help resolve that problems so it's not that much work :)

By any chance, is there a thread with steps to reporting bugs, (besides the "how to report a bug section)?"

It was another idea that I had
