I would think it's going to be like that for every file because you have to consider the amount of Skyrim mods uploaded daily on Nex-Sky and then you have to keep in mind that it's under queue due to other files taking priority in line before it and then other files prior to that so it's all a mix with a ETA. Thandal explained that it isn't just files from here, it's from any website that uses VirusTotal for it's file scanning. It's a good idea, but it could have a huge impact later on when a popular modded game comes out and it's just blowing up uploads left and right.

This feels like a MMO where there is a maintenance update and once it's done thousands of users are trying to log on at once and having connection problems due to server flux. It's time to play the waiting game.

Changes to the way manual downloads are served We've changed the way we serve manual downloads to you via the pop-up. While before when you went to download a file manually you would be presented with a list of file servers to choose from we are now moving to a quicker, more automated system that will pick the least over-loaded server from a geographic location you've specified in your preferences. If you haven't specified your preferred location then the first time you go to download a file you'll be asked to pick one. There are several reasons for doing this: Right now we have 23 file servers. As we continue to expand the number of file servers we provide it's going to become untenable (or very ugly) to show them all to you so you can make a selection. Many people seem to grow attached to a certain file server and will only ever download from that server even when it's overloaded. This causes an unnecessary load on the network we'd rather avoid. It allows us to code algorithms that manage our file server network more closely, ensuring that load is evenly balanced. It removes a click from the downloading operation which in turn speeds up the downloading process. ahem.... if it's not broken, don't fix it.

I'm old fashion. I hate the thought of doing it that way and a good mod has been taken down. I admit that in the past I have forgotten to endorse a mod I do like. I did this when I had joined Nexus over 4 years ago. When I was on a superchage download spree downloading everything I liked and not taking the time to evaluate it and give recognition. That all changed when I stumbled into a topic of endorsements where modders felt unappreciated at times years back. I admitted it then that it was wrong on my part. This concern isn't new, and perhaps I got hasty when I know Nexus is trying to do the right thing. Lets hope that it does help. Some modders out there feel like they deserve more credit. There's even mods that I think do deserve more credit, but that's based on one's judgement and when their mind is set, we can't do anything about it. It's up to them to decide. I think a way to improve a modders endorsements could be taking the time to reply to people's comments. Followers also like to feel appreciated and not given the silent treatment. Reading the same comments of the same problem can be eye sore, I know, but these type of things rely on patience. If you are going to roll your eyes and ignore them, don't expect much in return. It's easy to turn someone down or classify them as stupid or retard if they didn't follow instructions. I've made simple mistakes just like everyone else who's accidentally skipped a line in a paragraph and find myself asking a stupid question in the comments. There are others out there that comprehend a certain language to a certain extent and find themselves asking questions to have a better understanding. This is a gobal site after all. A lot of people from around the world visit this site. @b1gBadDaddy I didn't check myself at the time if it was optional. When I wrote this I was going about the experience I was facing during the time before it was published. Only a few hours later is when I noticed this was up. @Drake, it was already set to <never> for me. I haven't seen the pop-up during my time on Nexus today, however, I did get the notice while I clicked a manual download link to a mod. I think it works better like that. More tolerable for me.

In response to post #15665905. Okay, Elianora. I understand your concern about this, but the fact of the matter is that there are many ungrateful people that don't take the time to appreciate someone's work. I know because I've been around Nexus longer than you think. Enough to know that I didn't not fail to recognize that the search function you are talking about was changed a year or so ago. Enough to know that there used to be a thumbs down button in the comment section that was removed because too many dumb people spammed the thumbs down. Enough to know that this site layout wasn't the original Nexus layout. And sweety, no. If I was seeking attention I would shove a link to the page to everyone. The fact that you stumbled there was your choice. No one is forced to do what they don't want to. Admit it, your just upset I haven't scoped you out. I know... I know... I'm not giving the recognition that you deserve. I haven't checked your mods out just yet. At least I have to go back and check, but I did look at your list of mods and you seem to have a really good amount of endorsements. Congrats on that. No sarcasm, I'm being serious. :) All I'm just saying is exceeding more expectations on endorsements isn't going to win you another cookie. Be thankful for what you get. Not everyone admires that most endorsed mod on Nexus. And not every mod out there gets 1k endorsements alone.

Forcing a pop-up in our face as a reminder to endorse a mod is not something that I need. If I like a mod I will endorse it. I'll be the judge of what I do, not Nexus. This is just going to annoy more people and click that [ x ] have a nice day button. If modders here are that concerned on endorsements, that's really sad... It's like seeking more attention you can't have. Life must suck, eh? It's not going to work. Relying on a system to remind someone is not going to work. People either need to take a moment to appreciate it or ignore it. My guess is if people are not endorsing, it's because it doesn't meet to their expectations. It's not as promising ingame as it is on paper. Remember that everything looks great on paper. ;) Let me tell you one thing that will not get an endorsement from me. A mod that cannot provide a readme text document in the archive file. Even if it's the most popular mod that exists. Doesn't matter how simple the mod is. Every mod should come with a readme. And I see this a lot on Skyrim mods. Another thing. I tend to see a description further down on the mod description page then the first thing you should read. And you wonder why people are repeating the same questions of troubleshoot. Not everyone cares to read 5 pages worth of text on a description. Properly organize your description and it just might save you a whole ton of comments of the same issue that was written in the description to begin with. Readme is important because when an author decides to remove it from Nexus, you have a mod with no details. This could be a problem for someone who installed Skyrim a few years later and forget what that mod does. Or if the mod has dependencies.
