@Saerileth, I speak for no other as well. I do not have the skill or want to mod SKyrim because there's already so many mods out there available that do the same thing that I desired. And you're fairly limiting modding to only Skyrim and not looking at the big picture. There are other games with mods as well and this is one of those platform that supports modding community. I've made some popular and some not so-popular mods/addons in the past for some games I don't care to mention. I have also create stuff for myself that share to my friends.

I feel that your attack on those that haven't put up a mod and have no say is unwarranted. Most that do not have a mod participated in one way or another with the creation or perfection of some mods, whether by inputs or feedbacks. To say they have no right to to say what modding is about for themselves is a little shortsighted, no?

If I have mistaken your point then I apologize, but modding community is not just about the authors who has hosted at least 1 mod. This is not to be taken as the authors don't deserve any praise, as they should definitely be. All I'm saying is the "beta testing" helps the modding community more than anything.

Yeah! Community effort, guys! We get stuff for free, we'll give no support for the effort here, and we demand retribution for what the site owner believes in because he has to pay for the servers..... oh wait.

I forgot about the $500,000 annual server cost that most of us contribute next to nothing for. Yeah, reality sucks, eh? Edited by ZeroKing

Yes your opinions are indeed welcome. This person isn't stating an "Opinion" this person has taken facts, mixed them up into his/her own little theory, and is attacking Dark0ne. Best if you don't get involved in it as you too seem to not know whats going on either. ****I'm giving you Kudos Zero cause I haven't seen you in so long. Edited by Reaper0021

No reaper he has not been honest at all. When explain your self and leave out certain elements then that is being dishonest.

Let's face it, the reason he is saying is is neutral is because he is afraid to actually state his position. Wishy washy... and because I have an opposite opinion of how he has handled this now everybody trolls me. LoL Like I care. I own my house (paid for) and have a wife who loves me and 3 children that I feed and clothe and I am here with my eldest fighting for what I believe is right.

I believer he has lied, I believe he is not being honest and I don't trust his so called good intentions.

I can not believe for the life of me what is happening and you know what, if this goes through then this whole generation deserves SOPA and all the other corporations to come in take over the internet.

Of course I say that with tongue in cheek but I have been fighting the machine my whole life and I am getting tired... this really makes me not want to care any more and just let the children work it out themselves.

Pay-for-mods is the absolute worst thing that can happen and it is pretty much a done deal.

If Dark0ne want to be the Champion then let him refund all the money he gets from valve directly to the moddders. Lets see if he does that eh?

I'm thinking that the paid section of the Steam Workshop can work like Vessel. If you pay for it you will always get early access to the newer version of the mod compared to getting it free on Nexus. Authors can even make "premium" versions of the mod with added functionality similar to how free phone apps work. And as new versions of the mod come out with new "premium" features old "premium" features will be added to the free version of the mod.

 

Also I think for donations on Nexus to be utilized more the donation feature should be made much easier. Alot of the time people won't mind donating a small amount to mod authors. But they just can't be bothered to log on to paypal and go through all of that stuff. If donations were as simple as a slider and the click of a button I think we will be seeing alot more of it on Nexus.

 

Lets face it. Its highly unlikely that Valve and Bethesda will simply remove this campaign and apologize for jeopardizing the modding community. The paid section of workshop is here to stay. The best we can do now is look for a way for free and paid modding to coexist without the free users to miss out too much.

 

Personally I am happy to pay the authors of the mods that I like. I'm kinda ok with paying Bethesda. But I am not happy with paying valve. They contributed to 0% of the mods' creation and success.

hey guys. in light of a current situation i must say i have decided to open a completely new modding site, free from the shackles of corporate capitalism. all mods on this new site of mine will be forever free, guaranteed. i am only 14 years of age (on nexus since i was 8), but already i have access to good amount of monies considering my mommy is a lawyer and her boyfriend is a broker. who knows maybe in 14 years this new site of mine will be a big site like some other sites that are big now but that weren't big once upon a time. its easy to laugh at me now, but when i am a c.e.o. of a major modding site in many years, you will see, and then you will realize that you shouldn't have laughed. what a grand adventure this will be!

 

FREE THE MODS!

"Pay for mods" is a bad idea. I'm 44, own 4 houses (live in one rent the others 3 small houses to help my disability) and have 1 child...no wife. And? The make-up of my family or my residence doesn't validate my words any more than it does yours. He isn't betraying us. It was always there to see...I know I read it. I'm sorry this has all happened to turn this community on it's damned head. I've seen you posting in forums before and you are one smart guy. You really are. I've enjoyed your input in the past and it's hard for me to see you being this willfully stubborn.

Ha, thank you... I think :/ I have never considered myself a troll (only learnt what it was a couple of year ago...) being a bit of old fashioned.

I just think it can be unwise to just use the arguement that "it's just the way it is". But I also think there can be constructive ways to talk about this. As in trying to organise a way of reducing this "slippery slope" that has been mentioned a number of times. And I wanted to suggest that getting hissy with each other is not going to help... perhaps that what was predicted to happen??
