The TWC Modding Registry was founded as a place where individual and team modders could submit a form that recognized them as the 'owners' of the mod, at least on the TWC forums. After responsibility was transferred from the [[Curia]] to the [[Hexagon Council]], the forum was renamed the Mod Register and placed within the Modding Discussion forum.
