Can we stop calling it collections?

[Ashes2Asherz]

Collections is such an ugly word here in the states, it ranks up there with the words Parking Authority when used together.

Most Americans don't run to collections, they run from it.

Example today in the mail I received a "collection" notice ordering me to pay over 120 thousand dollars for a one-night stay at a hospital 3 years ago.

Not that I have that kind of money so I always live under the threat of collections putting a lien on my home or garnish my wages. The word collections is evil so it kinda bums me out to see it in my "escape from reality time"

Other than that tho, love the addition of collections, it made modding fun again but yea still hate the name and despite my bat poop crazy moments, i'm sure i'm not the only one hating the name. :)

This really has nothing to do with Vortex - the mod manager for many many games.

 

I think you can a better place to voice your opinion in one of the other Nexusmod forums:

For me, Collections is what a Church does to help those less fortunate. All depends on your life experience.

Debt Collections, Church Collections, Anime Collections, mod Collections.

 

The word Collections isn't the problem, just the thing you are associating it with.

Genuniely curious as to what other random words trigger you like this?

[AugustaCalidia]

So if the word "collections" used in connection with mods triggers nightmares, does it also do the same when talking about art collections, doll collections, book collections, coin collections, etc.?

[Guest deleted34304850]

Wouldn't it be cool if we could create a group of words that trigger the OP, and, you know, call it a collection?

The replies to this thread are borderline trolling so I'm going to close it.
