*shrug* I disagree. I've seen a number of fans take material that was sub-par and transform it, through enthusiasm and innovation, into something far greater.

If he has a passion to mod something according to his take on the WW Werewolf mythos, let him. He's not doing anyone any favors by putting work into an alternative that reflects your tastes, not his. While I might not favor a WW mod for my own play, I can think of a number of reasons as to why seeing one developed would be productive and potentially even fun.

As for WW quality, it varies wildly, enough so that I think you overgeneralize in your condemnation of it. Some of the material out there is complete drek, but there are some real gems in the WW library. The fact that they distort the real world's historical facts in creating their World of Darkness may make them poor textbooks for history students, but then, that's not their market.

I'd prefer the topic adhered to constructive criticism and comments. If someone makes a Smurfs mod, I'm not interested. However, rather than tell them how they're wasting their time on it, if I'm going to comment at all, it'll be how to balance their Papa Smurf SC Pretender with the others in the game or something of the like. Telling them to just quit or put together an alternative army based on the far superior little people of Gulliver's Travels just takes away from the creative energy of potential modders. And frankly, I'm for as much of that as possible.
