  1. I love me some negative bias in my forum polls.
  2. Not every mod needs SKSE so there may not have been any reason for a lot of them to be updated anyway.
  3. Time for yet another stab at it.
  4. It would be even more of a pain with 10,000 Korean spambots roaming free due to no barriers in their way.
  5. You need to completely uninstall those files, not just deactivate them. Then for good measure, delete them entirely if they're still in your Data folder. As far as your crash, no, USLEEP is not involved.
  6. Yes, and this is precisely what I'm getting at. You are actively impeding the function of the captcha by doing this. One thing I think we can agree on though is that IPB's quote system sucks :P
  7. Except it was. You're here complaining. So you got logged in. Therefore I must assume you were able to process the captchas. Maybe you're not who I am referring to here. Maybe you are. You'd have to tell me that. Nope. I've seen enough people say "it's your fault" and be proven utterly wrong to stop accepting this "500 people are complaining so it must be real" attitude anymore. Especially when the only ones complaining so much are at the same time actively impeding their own use of the service they're complaining about. Thanks for the advice, but I'm afraid I'm going to have to reject it as useless. Other people have commented on the same thing I did and they were all 100% correct to do so. Unless the moderators tell us not to, why should we be barred from commenting on the REAL cause of your problem? Just ebcause there also happened to be some other minor issues with the secondary system does not invalidate the fact that your settings are what interferes with the primary system.
  8. Yeah, engaging in brigade tactics never ends favorably for those who do that. You'd be more likely to be banned as a spammer than you would be to get them to remove a security feature.
  9. And I've never seen more people in one place so eager to complain about a scenario they've inflicted on themselves willingly in my life. Issue goes both ways you know.
  10. It's not me who has no clue here. I know what to set to keep the long arm of Google et al at bay without simultaneously inflicting a painful login process on myself every time I want to go to a site. This isn't about licking Nexus's butt. It's about knowing how to control your privacy online in a sensible way where your information won't be of any value because you aren't letting every single website in to set cookies and trackers. This idea you and folks like you have that it has to be either all wide open or all completely shut down is why you're having so many problems. There's middle ground to be had. You should be using it.
  11. Trust me, Facebook already has you covered no matter how hard you try to block them. Analytics data is utterly useless to identify people with. Gravatar is harmless. Ajax is what makes the entire site scripting system work, so if you're blocking that, why bother coming here at all? Again, this is a problem of your own making, not something the captcha did or didn't do to you. Or people like me using opera as browser have trouble, too. The last update of opera and java made my login on nexus a "captcha torture" again. I saved my opera installation, deinstalled opera complety and made a fresh new install with default settings. That did not improve the login proecedure on nexus in any way. There is no deletion of cookies. But I have to do the captcha procedure at each login. Now in a new way- I have to fill in username, password, use the login button. Get as result a captcha failure, followed by one or two new captchas. Verify, sign in (again). That works. I never changed the privacy settings of the freshly installed opera. I should think Opera still using Java at all should be far more concerning to you than the Nexus login cookie. The other major browsers have all actively blocked the Java plugin from being installed. If Opera is not, maybe you should be using something more secure.
  12. All he did was point out a simple truth. Any of those things you may have done via the internet are going to have done a lot more to compromise your privacy than accepting one harmless login cookie from Nexus so that you don't have to suffer captchas that don't care who you are anyway. Total anonymity on the internet is and always has been an urban myth. It never existed.
  13. As if letting Nexus set the login cookie correctly is going to compromise your privacy in any meaningful way.
  14. Actually it's only people with ridiculously aggressive privacy settings that are having trouble. The rest of us never see the login screen because we keep our cookies.
  15. Been tempted to get this, may as well try for free :P
  16. No, this isn't true at all. CTDs are caused by broken mods or bad load ordering etc, not by running SKSE without an engine fixes plugin. I run my SSE game just fine using SKSE64 without the engine fixes plugin.
  17. Email validation is already in place for new accounts. That has no power against bots though because they have pools of valid addresses to use for spam.
  18. It's not possible to backport from SE to LE. Form 44 is not understood by the older game and you'll just end up with corrupted saves as a result of trying. Plus LE will not be able to read meshes in SSE format either.
  19. Not sure what the equivalent settings in Opera would be, or if they even exist, but this is how I set Pale Moon up: https://imgur.com/Mvx098h Should be pretty much the same for Firefox users too. I don't get any 3rd party cookies from sites when I run this way and they keep their login cookies as expected when they're on the whitelist. (accessible via the exceptions button)
  20. It would probably be more prudent to just change it again and know you're in good shape.
  21. Are you guys all getting this because you insist on scrubbing away all your cookies when you log out instead of setting up a proper whitelist for sites you trust? I haven't seen a captcha here once because I don't remove the cookie so I stay logged in and find that to be incredibly convenient. Yes, those "Click the cars" things suck, but hitting them feels like something you're deliberately inflicting upon yourself with overly aggressive privacy controls. Of course they won't work well if you don't let Nexus (or any other sites) keep their login cookies for you when you close down at night.
  22. I see thanks. I must have missed that in the topic, will check through again. Actually your post earlier that you had been file blocked is what got me curious about "what if somebody got blocked but did nothing wrong?"(Unless I am mistaken and you are just referencing from memory what it says from another case or I'd misinterpreted) I totally 100% understand trolls & flamers getting blocked but IMO it kind of sucks if a positive contributing member gets file blocked without any reason. I'm sure he thinks blocking me for reporting bugs and correcting compatibility misinformation was a good reason, but I'm not too worried about it. He's treated everyone else who did so just as badly and it's earned him a hugely negative reputation for covering things up at this point. So he can continue to block me if he wants, it doesn't bother me. I only mentioned it because aphilion thought the message was rude and apparently thinks I've ignored it because I don't agree with him. @aphilion: Not gonna even try to quote your use of red text, so I'll just say this: When everyone in the thread including staff and the site owner are telling you you're in the wrong, simple logic suggests you just might be. Maybe you should consider that instead of continuing to try and insult everyone here by implying they're uneducated barbarians for not agreeing with you.
  23. You'd probably have to take up a situation where you said nothing wrong and got blocked anyway with the staff, despite what the block message says. They have already said, even in this thread, that someone legitimately abusing the system could get taken to task for that. That person wasn't OP obviously, but still. An author can only block someone from their content if they have commented in one of their mod threads. So if you never post anything in their threads, they can't block you.
