The only thing it does is gate the maximum speed allowed (below the maximum there is little to no impact, but it doesn't allow you to go past that). While i'm not discounting the possibility of Nexus having a slowing effect on your downloads, it sill just might be on your side. If there is someone with actual concrete information here, feel free to correct or add to my post, it'd be very appreciated.

In response to post #64915481. Are you sure it's not on your side? I'm not saying it is, because i had a few such days, but this site has given me pretty well capped download speeds since i joined. I've also heard claims like that pretty rarely, of which at least two cases ended up being on user side.

In response to post #64775336. #65075281 is also a reply to the same post. Can't you just whitelist this site? This way you can keep letting them ad incomes rolling for sites like this, without needing to constantly switch it on and off.

If you thought, that i jump at the chance to build a deck for you out of my own pocket, because "i have a hobby and i should do it for free", you'd be stupid. If you said, that i should have no problem with you using my tools and not returning them to me, or breaking s#*&#33; and not giving a s#*&#33;, because it's just a hobby and not a job, you'd be stupid again. Now, if you said, that me liking a few beer and a pizza for coming and fixing s#*&#33; for you is ludicrous, you might also be saying something stupid. Good thing, that you have said nothing stupid at all. Edit: the recipient.

In response to post #56204381. I'd actually want to purchace premium and retain the ads. I could then just disable the ones that distract me in any way with a software in clean conscience, while leaving the harmless ones to generate well deserved funds to this site(and now towards this pool). Call me crazy or a shill, but This button in your settings would be a nice addition. Optional, of course.

It's a cesspool, plain and simple. it steals the original creations in unsupported and often shifty messes, which i wouldn't want to inflict on my computer. No credibility, no theft protection(the other way around, in fact), no real moderation, no virus protection or detection, no real community to detect and oust these to provide some herd immunity, not to mention some heavy and backed allegations of the creator being an extremely damaging serial thief and an impersonator. Wouldn't touch with a ten feet pole.

Well, i personally haze zero sympathies for people not reading the description, when they have something to ask. Sometimes even i can just gloss over a mod description before installing, but i wouldn't be caught dead asking for something stated in the modpage/readme. Re-reading them is the first step to troubleshooting, and it fixes a large part of all problems. With filling the bug report page(or comments with bug reports) you don't just inconveniece the author and other users, but even yourself. You can easily save time by reading it yourself, instead of asking about it and waiting for answers. And don't get me started on the "will you do this for Xbone?" - people...

In response to post #56187486. Fair point, but sadly hard to implement. Worth discussing, though.

Could you outline The specific part you are forced to take part in and how it is stroking you the wrong way, so i/we can even understand, what your problem is with this? You don't have to pay for anything. You don't have to donate. You are not being flagged as supporter of anything, unlessyou do it yourself. You don't have to donate to anyone, even if you stil CAN do it the same way as before, if you want to. You don't have to accept the DP from your mods, if you don't want to. Your DP is not public. You can give them to whoever you want, in whatever way you want to(withing reason). you can set the terms for your content yourself(but i'd hope any clause for that should be public at upload/changes to avoid any whammies, which i believe it is going to be, so no worries there.). Where is the forcing part in the post above? And while feedback is appreciated and almost expected on these things, should Dark0ne mediate with every single active user personally?

In response to post #56147046. Yup. BUT HOW MUCH DO I HAVE TO PAY UP TO USE THIS SITE IN THE FUTURE! HOW MUCH WILL ZENIHACKS GET FOR THIS?!?!

In response to post #56172621. The total amount of DP is entirely private, so anyone making some flashy graphs about their earnings becomes really apparent in both good and bad, and can be easily identified and dealt with appropriately. I really have a hard ime in believng, that this becomes some popularity contest(more than it already is.). That cap, on the other hand, is an interesting idea, but needs work. One file hogging it all might be a downer, but a cap would entice an author to split up a mod in ten parts, which would become really difficult for the site, i believe. Maybe some scale? I'd first wait and see whether that becomes a problen or not, before overengineering the system.

Check any mod with "can't/won't come to Xbox" in the description, and you find at least two ponces asking for it in the comment section(at that situation they should ask permission to port it on Xbone themselves, if anything). The same is with almost every clearly stated fact or policy. Then there are the ones, who even get upset at the mod author not jumping at every comment like that. And of course there is "bestest ever" comments in the section, different strokes for different folks and all that. With that, though, this is not some Deviantart, where every slightest criticism is met with ban, and i too have made less flattering comments with no repercussions(fancy that). I might just suspect, that you were a bit more of an ass, that you're letting in on. Also, mod authors should never fear user responce, and vice versa. We are all members of this site, other just upload their creations. Also, this is an opt-in system, you aren't forced to contribute anything.

In response to post #56169581. #56170296, #56171586 are all replies on the same post. You call donations from advertisement funds the end of free and voluntary modding? Not going to happen. And i'm a bit sceptical about any modder feeling like a second class citizen for making the mods he/she wants, instead of the most popular types. I think that people like that tend to be even more beloved, but that's just my point of view. And the premium system isn't dividing users either, outside of the obvious differences. I have yet to see even one even remotely serious post whinging about free users, and i have ever seen only a single post made by some asshole calling supporters disingenuous fanboys/shills(not his words, and it happened 3+ years ago). I don't think that the current change is going to create any more divide between different users/authors.
