Publisher transparency
How to report inaccurate project information, unavailable downloads, wrong creator credit, or unsafe destinations.
Report the listing URL, expected official source, problem type, Minecraft version, loader, and the final destination or visible error. Do not include passwords, cookies, private financial details, or private server information.
Unsafe redirects, wrong project merges, creator attribution errors, and false download availability are handled before minor description or formatting issues.
We may update metadata, separate merged records, replace a source, mark a file unavailable, or remove a listing from live results while it is reviewed.
Creators can request corrections to names, links, images, descriptions, and project associations. Ownership claims follow the site verification process.
If a project is removed or no longer downloadable, we do not silently send users to an unrelated project. Alternatives are shown as separate recommendations.
Use the contact page with the exact URL and a concise description. Reports about unsafe redirects, false download availability, or creator attribution receive priority.
Submit a correctionA report is first checked against the exact listing and destination supplied by the reporter. The reviewer confirms whether the issue can be reproduced, whether the project has moved, and whether the problem affects one source or every source attached to the project. When a card combines information from more than one platform, each source is checked separately so that a valid page is not removed because a different source failed.
Temporary API failures are not treated the same as a removed project. A listing may be marked unavailable or withheld from discovery while the source is checked again. If the creator has intentionally archived the project but leaves downloadable files available, the page may remain with a clear archived or unsupported status. If no usable official file or project page remains, the listing should not continue presenting itself as downloadable.
The most useful reports include the page URL, the button or link used, the final destination, the visible error, and the Minecraft version or loader involved. Screenshots can help, but they should not contain account tokens, private messages, private financial data, server credentials, or personal information. Reports are evaluated on the evidence supplied rather than on the number of people repeating the same claim.
FreeMinecraftMods does not promise a fixed response time for every metadata issue. Unsafe redirects, impersonation, malicious files, false creator credit, and links that claim to offer a download but cannot do so receive the highest priority. Routine description changes and cosmetic image issues are handled after safety and availability problems.
Trust and quality
A good correction report gives enough evidence for the listing to be fixed without guessing. The most helpful reports include the FreeMinecraftMods page URL, the official source URL, the specific field that is wrong, and a short explanation of the expected change.
Corrections are handled as maintenance, not as hidden reputation votes. A listing can be updated, relabeled, de-emphasized, or removed from download-focused results when the available source evidence changes.
These practices support people-first pages: the content should help a real player or creator make a decision, verify a source, or report a problem.
