    JS Plugin Releases (RMMZ) Rules
    Last Updated 1/22/2024​
    • General forum rules apply.
    • You must be the sole creator or have permission to post said plugin.
    • You must credit and have any needed permission to edit material that was not created by yourself. Link to any additional Terms of Use.
    Do NOT—
    • Bump with no new update.
    • Post edits of paid DLC.
    • Post any plugin made predominantly or entirely with AI. **see special rule #1 below**
    • Post a paid plugin of any kind. **see special rule #2 below**
    • Use any sort of donation or crowdfunding platform to host and/or promote plugins. All advertising and spamming rules apply.
    [rmod]Bannable Offenses[/rmod] Credit Theft and Plagiarism. This includes but is not limited to:
    • Taking material from another author and claiming it as your own.
    • Taking material from an encrypted or unencrypted project and posting it as your own.
    • Redistributing paid DLC.
    Special Rules

    1. About AI Chatbots.     Sharing any plugin made predominantly or entirely with AI is forbidden. AI may be used as a support tool, but the creator must put a clear and visible disclaimer in the thread.

    For the purpose of this rule, AI is deemed to be used as a support tool when:
    • The creator of the plugin is capable of creating a plugin without any AI assistance.
    • The creator of the plugin is capable of supporting and maintaining their plugin.
    • A reasonable and knowledgeable plugin creator would not conclude that the plugin is made predominantly by AI.
    1.1 Moderators have full discretion when evaluating if a plugin has been made predominantly or entirely with AI.

    1.2 If a plugin is determined to have been created predominantly or entirely using AI and/or the individual sharing the plugin intentionally omits a disclaimer, the plugin will be removed and a warning or suspension will be issued depending on the gravity of the infraction.

    2. About Paid Plugins. Paid plugins are typically not permitted to be advertised on the forum. However, if your paid plugin features a free demo that is feature-restricted and not time-restricted, this is permissible even if the download page directly features the paid version. All advertising and spam rules still apply. Direct to your forum thread when referencing these plugins on the forum.
