Please, try not to beat around the bush in attempt to inject the wrong idea of this petition, friend. It's quite obvious that any modder should take responsibility in tagging their material correctly. But I will answer your example since you decided to question without actually think about how simple the answer would be. Any weapon/armor mod, or tweak given to weapons and armor already in skyrim, that are either made based off other games outside the ES games, or increasing armor rating value to an obsurd and godly number, to increasing the damage of a weapons beyond it's original value, and to add enchants that make a weapon or armor seem like It has been made from the power of something higher then a devine, would indeed make any material NON-LORE. To re-create a weapon or armor from prior ES games, only not to give them their original stats, makes it non-lore. But, to re-create weapons and armor, based off any prior ES games, and give it's original stats (the exact replica) plus allowing it to be upgradeable due to Skyrim's new smithing feature, makes it Lore friendly. Your lore, my lore, or anyones lore, that is not the games lore, is exactly what it is -- not the games lore. The idea to make searching easier on people to find what they want in a website doesn't make it folly. The idea can only be as folly as the people who speak out before they think about what they're saying. Sure -- But it unfortunately isn't the ES Lore. Quite a close-minded remark, no offense. The following petition is the idea to finding what you want by narrowing down the type by choice, just like the filters. The only difference is that it would start with Lore and Non-Lore as the two catagories, and within them, the subcatagories would be found (Filters then would behave more appropriately) The purpose of this petition is not to segregate the community into a permanent choice. If you choose lore related work, that does not lock the non-lore related work away from you. True. But, not entirely. I personally don't see an issue with Nudity in the ES series. It's more of how it's used in the ES series that would make it more non-lore. For instance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Brfkpt_d2o8 And any of the links to the side of that video, I would consider that non-lore. ----- Thanks everyone for the feedback. I expect more.

That might be true, but they've both been downloaded 650 times and counting.

I'm sorry Malakai, but I'd love for you to supply proof that Anime-style modder's stated that they are refusing to release their works because of haters in the community to such work. There are a lot of close-minded people in here who would rather complain about 1 or the other, to take a side, in defense for what they like and don't like. Opinion's are acceptable, but hardly carry any kind of worth to finding a solution. Instead of bickering about with this subject, we should be finding a way to fix it so we don't have to continue the same rant, the same argument, the same debate... http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/562501-nexus-choice-of-category-petition/ Read it, sign it. It'll make everyone's life easier here on the Nexus.

Just wanted to ask about that. Like in new vegas's hardcore mode to which you had to eat, drink, and sleep in order to keep your attributes up. I would love to have such a thing in Skyrim. That way portable camps,and pack horses would make a lot more sense :) Then we could have mods that add more wild life to the world to tag along with the cooking mods. So how about it? Anyone have anything on this or currently working on this? :) Thanks

Everyone please head to this link, about the filter, and sign the following petition: http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/topic/562501-nexus-choice-of-category-petition/

Dear Readers & Nexus Administration, (Edit: PLEASE ONCE YOU VOTE, SHARE THIS WITH YOUR FRIENDS AND OTHERS. SPREAD THE WORD OF THIS PETITION!) It hasn't gone unnoticed that there has been many discussions, debates, and arguments through these forums, and other forums regarding how tedious it can be to search through lore-based mod's due to the various work's of non-lore ones. To clearify: Lore Mod's (Mods that fit the theme of Skyrim): -Recreated Armor or Weapons from prior ES games, -Homes and abodes created with stock or same-timeline textures, -Companion's that fit within the theme of Skyrim, -Any game tweaks that aren't overzealous to which it would break the immersion of the game. Non-Lore Mod's (Mods that don't fit the theme of Skyrim): -Fictional character's from other games/shows/movies/etc, -Anime appearance tweaks, -Weapons and Apparel from other games, or from a particular time-line that (WH40K, Link's outfit, Any modern article of clothing ) , -Nude Mods, -Animation mods that resemble things of modern times (The Shuffle, The dougie, any form of breakdance, parkour ninjitsu flips,). The list can carry on into a novel of differences. This is a petition to separate such mods into a category that would would make it easier for both individuals who seek one without the other. This petition is in no way stating that I (Or anyone who signs this petition) have anything against Non-lore mods, and take in the belief "to each their own." Freedom of choice. This is just a way easier solution that makes it easier for everyone to site, that what they are looking for, is what they are getting in the end without the hassle of searching through a lot of what they don't want or care to have a look at. Please take a second to hit "Yes" or "No" and express a comment as to what you feel about the petition. I'm going to continue to keep this topic updated, and in hopes that someone from the Nexus team may recognize this as an important subject. Thank you very much for taking the time to read this, and hope the idea inspires the change. ~Rob

Seriously, biggest waste of time. Agree to disagree.
