Being a Minecraft player who is interested In mods, I have many a time came across 'MCreator', while Planet Minecraft does not allow the use of 'MCreator', I am guilty of trying to make a mod with it and putting it on Planet Minecraft, sadly it was removed by a moderator, since then I have not touched the subject, recently, I looked in to making a proper mod. When looking for tutorials, I kept finding stuff like 'How to use MCreator' or 'Minecraft Mod Making made EASY', seeing this reminded me of the subject, and it made me think... 'Is MCreator really that bad'.

I think that while MCreator is 'cheating' in a way, it does not mean it should be blacklisted. MCreator, in my opinion, anyway MCreator is good for making a 'mock-up' of a mod, nothing more... while someone with decent code knowledge could go through and remove references of MCreator, it still would be a MCreator mod.

Planet Minecraft should make a separate mods section for MCreator, this would mean, players that can't code could still make a mod and publish it without restrictions... In many ways, this would benefit the Planet Minecraft community.

Just remember this... I have seen mods, just as good at buildcraft made with MCreator.

I don't get why anyone would use MCreator, it's not that hard to just learn Java. There are plenty of online tutorials, and that's how I learned to mod. Now I have made a whole functional mod (although I am too low a level to post it).

The problem is, how to find these tutorials?

Simply look up “minecraft modding tutorial <version>”.

Also, having written this years ago, my opinion has changed. Datapacks are an alternative to modding that is easier, and anyway MCreator is a good thing if that’s how one knows how to mod and can’t otherwise.

I Agree I Have Tried To Post A Mod Using MCreator But A Modifacator Took It Down.Which Then REALLY Annoyed Me. Planet Minecraft Should Have A Section For Mcreator And Other Section For Coded Mods.

for me, mcreator = headache, there's no freedom with it, you're limited to basic and slightly advanced things, if you want perfect freedom to add whatever you want, learn java and code for your mod manually with eclipse, LIKE A MAN

I agree with you, many people struggle in making mods, they really should have a separate section for MCreator.
