Should games with heavy modding communities be given more protection against copyright claims?

As modding communities thrive in many games, they often breathe new life into titles, but at times, modders face copyright claims or takedowns. Should games with strong modding communities be given more protection against such claims? Could a balance between respecting intellectual property and supporting fan-created content benefit both developers and players? Would clearer guidelines or legal protections for modding communities foster more creativity while preventing legal issues?

Absolutely! Strong modding communities enhance games significantly. Clearer guidelines would protect creativity while respecting intellectual property, benefiting both developers and players alike.
