Should banned user mods/maps/etc be deleted from these boards?

Lest anyone really cares about this, I should perhaps mention that Sombre asked me some time ago to delete his mods from this forum and give links to the new forum, and as a moderator I can do that, but just haven't gotten around to it. His reasons as I understand them are simply that otherwise people will keep on downloading old versions of his mods and he won't be able to maintain them properly. With mods it's particularly important that everyone has the most up to date version, as confusing errors will arise otherwise (dominions won't tell you you've got the wrong mod version, but in a multiplayer game funny things will happen). It's not a practical solution to ask someone to keep on updating the copies of the mods on this forum. That is definitely too much faff and I wouldn't expect anyone to do it (I certainly won't do it).

Incidentally Sombre's and Burnsaber's mods are amazing, and I highly recommend everyone gets hold of some of them and has a go.

Also I have not read everything so don't know where this "spite" thing has come from, but spite definitely isn't something that Sombre or Burnsaber would bother with.
