Reveal hidden contents Quote hauntedabyss wrote: I took Your survey I did alot of thinking and I hope you liked my response. My Biggest Suggestions Were Checkout layouts of Reality websites as they are common for the ideas of searching for stuff. Tags, Certifications Are a Big Deal for many sites that have mods. Top, Good Gems will be easier to find as well as Exactly what people are looking for.. Ie Sound mods for certain things or (name) city overhauls Ect. Just a Refined More streamlined Site, Layout would help out aswell. Make it so we dont have to click page by page and can have a infinite scroll would also be a blessing. I also Hope we can figure out how to keep The tabs section on mods Maybe on the leftside instead of just the top.but its very buggy,videos constantly Break and clicking back and forth causes issues, Pages Crash. This needs to be reworked!!!!Finally I hope more tabs could be added or Sections to mods. For ex. I hope to see ,Help Section, Updates, Compatibility Tab. Ect not just all this s#*! shoved in a fourm. The bug Tab should be mandatory as wellps. Welcome to Nexus =D hope good things will come !!

The information coming in is very varied, a lot of excellent points have already been raised and noted down. Feel free to drop me a message (same for anyone) if you have anything that you think of in regards to the site since doing the survey.And thank you for the welcome :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stainglasshart Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 (edited) Hey, took the survey, but it said I 'wasn't finished' until I put in my email. I don't even have a steam account?? I just used my regular email for it, so confused.Edit: It was a good survey though, in case you were wondering. :) Edited July 24, 2015 by stainglasshart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mainly what I'm asking is is this your only "job" or do you wear other hats elsewhere?Also, I hope that when you're looking at all your metrics and seeing what people do, it's with the idea that we do what we do, perhaps, because it is the only road open to us. 100% of users might do something consistently, but it might be because there is no alternative or the way things have developed have sort of corralled us into doing things that way.For example, if you examine how people access forums or threads now and make decisions based upon it, it might be horrendously inaccurate as the recent change to the forums structure has left many of us struggling to keep afloat, let alone get back to any semblance of where we used to be.Thanks for being here and committing to making this place the best it can be! Quote NeoNord wrote: Brigand231, EXCELLENT POINT! I have little expertise in site design but I have seen enough to know that the design dictates what people do and how they do it. People are very adaptable and computers are not yet very adaptable. I personally don't think a lot needs to be done but primarily because I have been here long enough to figure a lot of it out by trial and error. So first question should be for whom are you making it better. The answer to that question is important. If it is for current users then you have taken the correct first step in polling them to find out except for Brigand' caveat. Once we have adapted to a particular system changing the system (even if it is for the better) introduces a "hassle factor" . I think a tutorial on how to best use all the site has to offer would have been appreciated when I first joined. Significant changes should be accompanied by a tutorial that says "you used to do it this way, now you do it this way" and " this is something you couldn't do before now you do it like this". Quote Brigand231 wrote: It's almost ironic that you mention that. When most folks were not familiar with embedded images I wrote up some tutorials on embedding using flickr and MediaFire as hosts; sure enough, flickr would go on to introduce updates that prompted me to create an updated tutorial as things were moved to different places.Hey Brigand231, thanks for the welcome.I am now working for NexusMods full time, it's going to be hard work - Robin has been staying with me this week while we discuss the site, plan ahead and work out timelines. 2am finishes have been the norm and we're definitely committed to finding out what is best for the site from a community perspective.As mentioned before, feel free to drop me a PM if you think of anything in particular. I'm getting quite a lot already, but will read through everything I get and respond when I get 2 minutes :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I care nothing for a chance to win some Steam game card, but cannot complete the survey without entering my Steam email address.--Facepalm--duh. Never mind. It was another question I had not answered which prevented completion.Oh, you shouldn't have to enter an email address if you didn't want to. I'll go and have a check, thanks for the heads up! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A site called deskthority.net has a very nice and subtle look, I suggest you use that for some ideas.Loving this site BTW. Been my place for mods since the beginning. Steam workshop can suck it!Will take a look at that site, I'm eager to find out what our community considers a good user friendly site.Steam workshop has it's place and is always going to be there, the thing they miss is the community and camaraderie that comes from somewhere like the NexusMods site.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
