Default Question about modification graveyard

Just wondering - why do certain mods end up in the graveyard? Is it because the author no longer supports it, because the mod has security flaws which havent been resolved? what are the criteria? Just wondering

<i>It seems to me all of the reasons you mention are legitimate reasons. Sometimes the author requests removal.</i>

I think they just forget to update and support it.

Many reasons, including author request, security issues, files no longer present etc.

However, just to be clear - Mods are never moved there simply because they are not supported.
