Are community servers safe?

Recommended Posts

I’m just wondering if there are any security risks by playing community servers with mods. Can these mods Install any malware on my computer or is it safe to Install them? Recently there has been fake offical servers and I’m worried that these fake servers can have any malware in them. I love the game otherwise but this is still worrying me.

As admin of one of community server with mods I can saythat my server without any unsafe stuff, viruses and other bull****, but I can't bet that any other software can't have any malware stuff in it. Honestly it depends only on antivirus that you're using and idea of admin & modder of the server...

For example yesterday I'd sendet PBO mod with moded login screen (1 .c file, 1 .pbo, 5 layouts and 2 .edds files my PC woth MS anivir didn't said anything, PC of reciever said that Archive has a virus... I told it has no, remove the PBO file and build with your prefered PBO package program.
