Default Modification Graveyard?

Just curious why the actual files are missing from the mod's that were moved into this section? I noticed on my site that i have several old mod's, and would like to be able to remove them from my server and site, but i can't remember where all the files have been placed. Some may be in my admin folder, some may be in the includes forlder, etc. Is there anyway that the files that came with these mods can be left in the graveyard? It is clearly stated that the section is for review only, but keeping these files available would help people with being able to go back and remove any mod's previously installed.

Thanks, hotwheels

Modifications in the Graveyard should be considered as deleted. No files can be downloaded from them. The threads themself stay visible so old information posted by members can still be read.

Would it be possible for the vb.org team to list the files that the mod had so that people could do as hotwheels is asking?

Perhaps the last post could contain this info after moving to the graveyard.

Another option may be to send the list out to all that marked the modification as installed - make this a benefit for people doing so.

Cheers,

Regs.

There is no easy way to automate this - you should keep archives of all the modifications you download...which should contain proper uninstall instructions. You can't depend that the modifications will be hosted here, that is beyond the staff's control.
