I agree also, for the most part. If you have a pretty heavily trafficked forums and adding an untrusted mod.... well you better hope you backed up your forums!! The first thing I do when I want to test a mod or altering a file is test it on my local machine. That way if the mod is incompatible then you aren't gonna destroy your community. I have a complete LAMP setup for exactly that reason.
