Welcome to Craic Mods & Gaming (“CM&G,” “we,” “our,” or “us”).

These Terms and Conditions govern your use of https://craicmodsandgaming.com/, including its educational content, tutorials, documentation, downloadable materials, and related resources.

By accessing or using this website, you agree to these Terms and Conditions to the extent permitted by applicable law.

1. Purpose of This Website

Craic Mods & Gaming provides educational information about dedicated game servers, game modifications, networking, troubleshooting, computer hardware, and related gaming technologies.

Our goal is to make technical information accessible, practical, and affordable.

All tutorials, instructions, and downloadable resources are provided for informational and educational purposes.

2. Intellectual Property and Ownership

Unless otherwise indicated, original written content, documentation, graphics, videos, scripts, and other materials created by CM&G are owned by their respective copyright holders.

CM&G retains ownership of its original copyrighted materials while allowing certain materials to be shared and reused under the licenses described below.

Game titles, trademarks, software, artwork, and other third-party materials remain the property of their respective owners.

Nothing on this website transfers ownership of third-party intellectual property to CM&G or its visitors.

3. Open Content and Software Licensing

CM&G supports open-source software, open educational resources, collaboration, and knowledge sharing.

We encourage visitors to learn from our materials, improve upon them, and share useful information with others.

3.1 Written Guides and Documentation

Unless a particular guide indicates otherwise, original written guides and educational documentation owned by CM&G are made available under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License (CC BY 4.0).

License information:

https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0

Under this license, users may copy, share, redistribute, adapt, and build upon the licensed materials, including for commercial purposes, provided they comply with the license’s attribution and other applicable requirements.

3.2 Scripts, Installers, and Software

Original scripts, installation utilities, configuration tools, and other software created by CM&G may be released under the Apache License, Version 2.0, or another open-source license expressly identified with the material.

Apache License 2.0:

https://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0

Each software distribution should include its applicable license and any required copyright or attribution notices.

Where software contains a LICENSE or NOTICE file, users redistributing the software must comply with the requirements of the applicable license.

Materials without an expressly identified software license are not automatically licensed under Apache License 2.0.

3.3 Materials Not Covered by Open Licenses

The permissions above do not automatically apply to:

• Third-party game files, mods, assets, trademarks, or software.
• Photographs, logos, or artwork owned by third parties.
• CM&G videos or other materials marked with different licensing terms.
• Materials CM&G does not have the authority to license.

Visitors must comply with all applicable third-party licenses and intellectual property rights.

4. Attribution and Credit Requirements

CM&G believes that shared knowledge benefits the entire gaming community. We also believe creators should receive appropriate recognition for their original work.

When sharing, republishing, distributing, or adapting CM&G materials released under an attribution-requiring license, users must comply with that license’s attribution requirements.

As applicable, this includes:

1. Identifying Craic Mods & Gaming as the original creator.
2. Providing a link to https://craicmodsandgaming.com/ and, where reasonably practicable, the original material.
3. Retaining applicable copyright, license, and attribution notices.
4. Indicating whether modifications were made.
5. Providing the applicable license information.
6. Avoiding any suggestion that CM&G endorses, sponsors, or approves a derivative work without authorization.

For original written guides licensed under CC BY 4.0, attribution may be provided in any reasonable manner consistent with that license.

For software, the requirements of the specific software license govern how copyright, attribution, and other notices must be preserved.

Suggested attribution:

“Based on original material by Craic Mods & Gaming (https://craicmodsandgaming.com/). Used under the applicable license. Modifications, if any, are identified separately.”

Simply following the instructions in a guide to configure your own computer or game server does not, by itself, require public attribution.

Nothing in these Terms limits uses permitted by applicable law or by an applicable open license.

5. Content Identification and Release Information

CM&G may include identifying information in original materials to help establish authorship, document revisions, and distinguish official releases from modified copies.

These identifiers may include:

• Copyright notices and creator information.
• Document and software version numbers.
• Unique release identifiers.
• Original publication information.
• Source references and licensing information.
• File checksums or other integrity-verification information.

These identifiers are intended to support authenticity, attribution, and release tracking.

Users redistributing licensed materials must preserve notices and attribution information to the extent required by the applicable license.

Content identifiers are not intended to secretly monitor users or collect personal information.

6. Downloadable Files and Software Disclaimer

CM&G may provide scripts, installers, configuration files, utilities, documentation, and other downloadable resources.

These materials are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

Although we strive to test and document the materials we create, we cannot guarantee that they will:

• Function correctly on every computer or operating system.
• Remain compatible with future game or software updates.
• Be free from all errors, vulnerabilities, or compatibility issues.
• Meet every user’s technical requirements.

Users are responsible for reviewing instructions, maintaining appropriate backups, and evaluating whether downloadable materials are suitable for their systems.

We recommend downloading software only from official CM&G sources and verifying available release information before installation.

7. Technical Guides and User Responsibility

Our tutorials may involve modifying software configurations, firewall rules, networking equipment, operating system settings, or dedicated game server installations.

Incorrect configurations or software changes can result in service interruptions, security vulnerabilities, lost data, or other technical problems.

Users are responsible for understanding the risks and determining whether instructions are appropriate for their environment.

CM&G is not responsible for configuration changes or technical actions performed independently by visitors, except where responsibility cannot legally be excluded.

8. Third-Party Games, Mods, and Services

CM&G is an independent educational gaming resource.

Unless explicitly stated otherwise, CM&G is not affiliated with, sponsored by, or endorsed by the developers, publishers, or owners of games and software discussed on this website.

Our website may include links to third-party websites, software repositories, game platforms, community resources, and other external services.

These links are provided for convenience and educational purposes.
