RimWorld Workshop
Mods and scenarios for RimWorld. Mods can also be found at the Ludeon forums at ludeon.com/forums
Why isn't RJW on the Workshop?
Yeah yeah it's """the forbidden mod""" or whatever but I don't feel like being coy.
Anyway I was thinking about this recently and wondering why it's exclusive to LoversLab. I hate downloading mods from other websites, the Workshop makes everything way easier. It's not like there are NO NSFW mods on RimWorld's Workshop page anyway. RJW would only be *slightly* more taboo than others posted here.

Can anyone offer insight?

*Slightly* more is over the limit, I suppose, given that it, more or less, is in fact on the workshop: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2043261353

RJW acts mostly as a framework for other Loverslab mods. Animations, sounds, mechanics, are all added by sub mods on the website. Getting RJW onto the workshop wouldn't be a problem at all, it just wouldn't serve a purpose, as even the tags of submods would immediately get them flagged as highly inappropriate, which they kinda are, since they uh.. don't really have moral limitations.. so to speak. Whatever you think that means, it's worse, hence, no RJW on workshop.

Steam does host some NSFW games sure, their own games like L4D2 have a slew of explicit mods on the workshop, but none of them include taboo, like animals. Furries don't count. Talking animal-animals.

Best not to rock the boat. It exists on Loverslab and Github, and that's where it'll stay. Last thing you want is some overleveled ozzy Karen coming after Tynan for not moderating the workshop in a way that agrees with her worldview, only to start a campaign against Rimworld anyway. A headache best avoided.

By end of 2027, Steam's Workshop has to be (legally) moderated against NSFW mods and mods that glorify violence or glorify topics of abuse have to be removed entirely. There isn't really a way around it anymore unless Valve shows the middle finger to the EU, UK, Canada and Australia, which isn't going to happen because Gabe Newell doesn't want to become an international fugitive, nor does Tynan want to defy the canadian government if they ever get wind of the content of Rimworld (which, on paper, does violate the adopted common law on "obscene" content, just like for Crusader Kings). In that regard, the fight against Karens has already been lost 7 years ago, because legislation for it to be removed has already passed. It's just a matter of when it happens until the 2027 deadline.

The 2027 deadline exists for a reason. They can't roll this out with impunity, something is stopping them. They would go WAY harder if they've already won. Never lose hope, and keep pushing back against it. You get enough people together, you can do whatever you want, and the majority of people are not in favour of Karen legislation. Worst case, it passes but they can't enforce it, cuz how tf would one do that anyway? The scale is MASSIVE, they won't be able to handle it.
