There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

I spent the week trying to contact Thickos, but his emails are disabled
Some of the "Old Guard" have left the community either by choice or in some instances having passed away. All you can do is make a decent effort to contact him and then in lieu of a formal "OK" just be sure to attach any original readme files giving his due credit plus any current readme information on your upgrade and let it go.

understood, but I would like an authorization from ADM here at SOH, so I don't break any rules
I understand. You do what it takes to put your mind at peace that you did what you felt was necessary.

Mario,
Thicko retired from the CFS2 community about ten years ago, maybe more. (His last SOH login was March 16th, 2016) I cannot verify what he is currently doing, or his status. Given the fact that you have attempted to contact him, and he explicitly stated that modifications to his work are allowed, as long as they are posted on freeware sites, I see no reason why you cannot proceed and upload your modifications, provided you honor his work by including the original readme file for any packages you upload where his work is included.
I hope this provides the clarification you were seeking.
