I feel sad that I needed this guide, but, I needed this guide. Thanks for this. Anyways, looking forward to the changes planned.

There is no such thing as a free user, if there was, this site would have ceased to exist long ago!

People can get that many downloads at once? I can't do more than two, otherwise my NMM crashes, I always assumed that everyone had that problem.

Would that it were true. Downloaders who have installed an adblocker and who aren't Supporters are completely "free", leeching users. They provide absolutely no financial benefit to the upkeep of the sites.

Thanks for the reminder to turn off adblock. Honestly, I forget sometimes. Have you considered checking if people are running an adblocker and displaying an unobtrusive reminder to turn off adblock to those who do have it running? I'm sure a lot of us mostly just use it by habit and would be willing to turn it off on sites we enjoy.

Upped to the Premium a couple of weeks ago as I am a huge fan of the work you guys do and knew it was just a matter of time to get the issues ironed out. Cheers!

This is off topic but I'm just throwing this out there because it happened to come to mind a couple seconds ago when I was temporarily deafened. PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, get rid of advertisements that randomly make sound or make sound on mouse overs.

 

While I do not mind silent advertisements and also completely understand that advertisements are necessary to provide the free service, the ones that make sound on screen load or sound on mouse over are absolutely the most annoying thing here on the Nexus. I'm just informing yall at the Nexus that from a user's perspective those advertisements that make sound are extremely intrusive and kind of make me feel violated.

 

I could care less about additional features at this time when I compare it to how much I absolutely hate advertisements that make sound. It doesn't matter if my volume is turned down really low, those sneaky advertisements making sound unexpectedly always give me a little scare and drive me bat crazy. I mean they just make me want to fly off the handle and break something. Just throwing that out there.

 

As always, thanks for everything yall have done with the Nexus. I do appreciate the hard work, just please, get rid of advertisements that make sound on load or sound on mouse over. Hopefully I'm not the only person that feels this way about them but ever since they started showing up it's just been a constant awful thing.

I think a long time ago it was mentioned that they are not able to filter advertisements out, therefore are also not able to disable the sound-having ones.
