There is no such thing as farming too many mods.

Farming mods is a 2 step process:
1. farm mods
2. go through and decide what's good

If you never get to step 2, you are farming too many mods.

uh, no, you are not doing #2 enough, assuming that means culling the weak mods

Um Yes. you are staying on step 1 instead of going to step 2. Hence farming too many mods. Farming and going through have to be balanced. In order to be come unbalanced you HAVE to do too much of one before going to the other.

Capping out means you did too much farming.

Everyone should do both things.

Farming 200 mods a day wouldn't stop you from doing step 2 though. Failing to decide what is good has nothing to do with how many mods you farm and everything to do with doing mods wrong.

If you don’t want the GP hit from mods you have to deal with inboxing.

Equip more mods is unfortunately the answer. @Bully

Going through mods is half the process of farming mods. I refuse to combine the statements into a statement with a qualifier. If you aren't going to go through mods after you farm them, you shouldn't farm more until you do. If you farm more before you go through them, you have farmed too many mods. If you hit the mod cap, you farmed too many mods.

If you were waiting to level them before you decided to keep them, you should have been farming mod leveling materials instead of more mods. Again, farming too many mods.

There are many many scenarios where a person can be farming too many mods for their situation.

Now you can never have too many good mods, but you can totally farm too many mods.

Can’t farm too many mods....I agree with @TVF there. You do have to stop farming at some point though so you can slice the ones with potential. If you’re sitting on 500 in mod inventory that you feel have potential but are trying to farm more instead of farming slicing material then you are doing things wrong.

Step 1: Farm mods
Step 2: Sell the useless ones. (Less than 5 dot, Right side mods with defense primaries, etc.)
Step 3: Level mods to see secondaries.
Step 4: Sell the ones that don’t hit speed. Step 5: Slice mods
Step 6: Sell the ones that don’t hit speed.

Rinse and repeat.

Sure, it may seem like saying you're farming too many mods is advice to stop farming mods, but really it is advice to work on mods other ways. Personally I dislike the assertion that it is impossible to farm too many mods because I believe that advice tells people they never have to stop farming mods for anything, which is assuredly untrue. And people with short attention spans will almost certainly take it that way.

Shots fired lol. Very subtle though, I gotta hand it to you for that.

I believe many people will read your advice the way I interpreted it and if they do it is bad advice. And you put a TL;DR in which highlighted it.

It may be more clear to someone looking for advice to say this:

instead of having a different answer that means that but doesn't say that. makes it easier for the questioner to know what you mean, not what you say
