Default Re: How do you spell modding?

Well, I think it's better to make a new word not have an irregular pronunciation, where possible.

Also, one can check how people are using the word currently. A simple unscientific method is to use an Internet search engine. Google finds about 6850 instances of "moding", including "MODing" and a different gaming term, which has to do with role-playing (see THIS LINK ).

Google finds about 235,000 cases of "modding", however.
