Okay okay okay, obviously trying to avoid something just makes it come forth.
I know a lot of people don't like hands on models, and that's fine. Everybody has their own opinion. I just think that mentioning hands in the topic is too little to get hate when nobody has even seen how it looks the way i do it. Personally, I think I made it look alright, but I don't know yet, because I haven't seen them in action ingame yet, so it's a pending matter (though that's not something I have told anybody).
When I look at weapon mods with hands, I frown aswell, but not because it looks bad, but because it was done badly. Rykuta's L4D2 mod with yndaaa was done good, but at that point people were just waaay too ignorant about the hands. I think we've come a long way, and trying things out wouldn't hurt.
I might aswell make Dren have a toggle option in the (broken?) rtb prefs to switch between hands/no hands if the final opinions about the hands are split.
