Appellations

I'd like to piggy-back off of this and note that the central reason I even bothered to post is due to this ridiculous smoke and mirrors game that the staff appear to be playing. The UI bothers me, that's for damn sure, but if the official responses had been upfront, honest, and non-hostile I would've shrugged it off after skimming the thread and went about my week. Instead we get: There's been an allegedly public poll that maxed out on votes instantly. There is a crowd of people that are consistently providing positive feedback. The Nexus staff is apparently in frequent contact with them. This is all happening on an easily accessible platform that we should be aware of. Negative posts are not being purged to protect the impression of a positive response. If this is all true, a little proof would go a long way to fostering some good will.

But all those people that voted on the HotJar poll exist! And so do all those users in their Discord Channel(that nobody can find)!

Hi! So my silence won't be taken as approval, I'm being forced to post! Lovely. I find the UI update to be unappealing. Aesthetically it feels too "mobile" for my tastes, but I also can't accept how much space a singular mod now takes on the page. Very style over subtance. This bit is purely personal, but I recall it being mentioned that collections being shoehorned onto the mods page was supposed to be a positive thing? I felt fairly ambivelent about collections prior to this. Now that I'm seeing the same two thrown in my face as a PRIORITY above NEW RELEASES I absolutely abhor them. Congrats? Also, will there be a publically available poll that site users can vote on? I say publically, since that last HotJar poll (that totally happened) flew so far under the radar there isn't a single person in this thread or on reddit that even knew it existed. If, by the staff's own admission, that's only a small sample size of the userbase, why not host a larger poll? Include it in an upcoming newspost for the site. Increasing the sample size can only benefit development, no? If feedback is as overwhelmingly positive as is being reported, there's no reason not to.
