Trademark Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 AlienSlof, I completely understand why you did this! :thumbsup: I still remember very well how you helped me once when somebody was bashing one of my mods for a bad reason. It is so annoying when your modifications get bashed by some random idiot for no damn reason. I mean sure, you don't have to like a specific modification, but there's no need to PM the author to tell them how much you think it sucks or whatever (not that I think there's a mod out there that sucks).

TheCalliton Posted March 19, 2009 Share Posted March 19, 2009 I'm officially upset. Everyone suffers because of the asininity of the few, and it's not like we can go track them down and beat the crap out of them. as am i i really do love her mods but its her choice its a shame some people cant see how much work and effoit people put into mods its really annoying and sad DCaseyi would beat them for sending slof away with their rude comments Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frodric Posted March 20, 2009 Author Share Posted March 20, 2009 Lets just ease back on the negativity a bit shall we? I'm sure that our vehement denouncements of the Internet Hordes is personally pleasing to each of us but might distress AlienSlof and that is the opposite of the threads intent. Personally, I have been noticing her contributions to other Mods even more. Her wild hounds, horses, and spiders in MMM etc. as well as those mods still out there that carry on her textures and artistry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PureSnipe Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 I agree completely. Getting one initial rant out is enough, after that, stop feeding the negativity.<Hint. Hint> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Limbus Posted March 20, 2009 Share Posted March 20, 2009 For the record, I'm a WOMAN who likes big breasts on my characters, and there is quite a lot of backlash toward breasts from the kiddies as well. Believe me, any hint of sexuality gets a lot of grief, and large breasts definitely get as much grief as big schlongs from the majority of the population. You make a very valid point here. Actually I was in a discussion about sex and violence in video games on the Mods Reloaded forums a few days ago. I mentioned how I find it strange that it's perfectly acceptable to brutalize people in video games, and kill them in almost anyway you can think of. Yet if you show breasts or heavens help you a penis. People freak, especially when it comes to a *gasp* penis. As is pretty much the problem here. I just think culturally we have a lot of things backwards. Just to clarify I have no problem with violence in video games so long as it's only available to an adult audience, same goes for nudity. I agree 100%. This post reminds me of that stupid infomercial for Extenze. "Increases the size of a certain part of the male body" Like theyre even afraid to say the word "penis". Society sucks these days, idiots cant leave well enough alone. Slof. Your health is much more important than any mod you release. GET HEALTHY sister. If you put the mods back up thats your decision and we'll support ya, if you dont, then your mods will be sorely missed. But get healthy first, that should be the #1 thing in your life right now. For what its worth Im sorry it had to come to this, a-holes lurk everywhere, and its hard to get rid of them. The mods that I have of hers Ill keep, I enjoy them very much. Thank you for all your brilliant work! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkf0rge Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 This is all pretty sad. I have just got back into oblivion, because of the modding scene and looking through the stuff, her's was very nice. I almost ruined my installation as well because I found an old version of her horse mod which didnt work well with fcom. luckily I got that resolved, but the loss of her mods seem to be a bit of a blow to the community.

Avatus Darius Posted March 22, 2009 Share Posted March 22, 2009 AlienSlof, I wanted to take a moment to include myself in this discussion. This entire situation is one that I find equal levels of dismay and anger with. Being around these forums, or others of this type is a claim I cannot make, for I am new here. When I first joined these forums, I was, and in some ways am still afraid to make requests of others in regard to learning more about making mods myself. It is in fact something that I have some degree of experience in, but with entirely different and less sophisticated tools. I have taken in much by way of game enjoyment, and learning tools by your contributions to this community. Although I this point I still sit dismayed at the keyboard searching for tutorials on Blender, Nifskope, Photoshop, and others - Your mods, and MontanaBlueSkies were ones that I have not only enjoyed the most in my games. As a newbie in this sense, I often end up downloading and trying to study how one accomplished what they did. My goal is not to mimic your work in any sense, but to learn to apply your outstanding and meticulous work towards ideas that I have. And this has been a return to the spirit that I so enjoyed while participating in forums or mod efforts in games of the past. The fact that you have chosen to withdraw your contributions is known to me now. And, though I can certainly understand the reasons behind it by this time, I am deeply saddened by this loss. You see, I have hoped that at some point, when I can take some of these ideas and make them tangible, that I could potentially solicit your participation. I am an ER nurse by trade, and can agree that things that are affecting your level of stress should be eliminated, and that your health and peace of mind comes first. Please rest up, and I send you my best wishes toward that end. Your contributions are missed, and it would seem that my desire to drop kick whomever introduced you to such a glaring level of ignorance will not be realized. When, and if you feel rested, please consider that not all heterosexual men are glaring homophobes spewing their insecurities randomly in the direction of others like vomitus. Some of us, like myself, appreciate the balance you have brought to these forums. One that includes an admiration for, and attention to detail of the male gender. Not to mention the outstanding work I have had opportunity to view on animals and creatures of mythos. I regret that I hadn't had the time and means to see more of your work. Art is simply that... And I would venture to say that what you would consider to be the most lacking in your creations is indeed something that the naysayers couldn't hold a match to in any forum, anywhere... I send you my best wishes, Avatus Darius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
