Iam not a modder by far, I only discovered my love for mods back around the time of Morrowind and Baldurs gate and have been in love and amazed with what modders can do ever since. I can see both sides of the arguement. But all the same i think it would be a shame, a true crime against the modders of not just the nexus all around the net if Valve muscles its way in. I can understand Modders making money off their mods, Some are more than amazing, New items, New realms, worlds, Weather effects, Complete conversions, Enhancing scripts and every aspect of the games we love. Dear Nexus Admins! I know its far to early to pick a side or even take a stand against the comming tide, But I do hope you remain, I hope modders will continue to post here no matter what the outcome or fallout is. Maybe allow modders to take Donations, via paypal or something thru the nexus, Not anything forced, Allow a choice, I think some of the modders are just amazingly skilled, Skilled to the point they could be making their own games, Yet they ask for nothing, They edit and tweak our games and ask nothing in turn. The Nexus should remain free, But maybe Modders should start takign donations or even open patreon and still post here on the Nexus. But I digress. As the Nexus admin said in that first post, Its to early to pick a side. And this is my two cents. Thank you. >_< Long live The Nexus! My home since Morrowind.
