Now maybe the back end of the site needs a redesign due to poor coding or coding that simply was designed with fewer users in mind, but I wouldn't say that it needs to be modernized, probably just fixed (though since I can't see the back end code it's a lot of speculation). I mean, hell, look at C++, that language is old as dirt but it's still the backbone of a lot of back end math engines and is still used quite a bit in the business field. I mean, COBOL is still used by Scott and White Hospital where I live and that came out in the 60s.

With all that said, as a professional programmer and amateur web admin I simply don't see the need here to mess with the user interface since code optimizations can generally be done without affecting the UI or the user at all, other then maybe faster site load times, or functions working more consistently.

Edit: It is also entirely possible I'll change my mind once we see the new site.

We are and will continue to try our hardest to provide you with a site that will help you find the mods that you are after, be they huge campaigns or little graphical tweaks, additional missions or a complete overhaul.

We are working to the ethos of: intuitive, functional, visual.

The site will be a long time in development, this is not an overnight project and will be released alongside the current site to enable people to report anything they find and get used to it. I have every faith in our team and users to help us achieve all our goals.

This little phrase of the Ages can be used to justify any sort of change, be it small or massive.

But in any case, this analogy of yours is very very poor. Mostly because the "innovations" that you are implying are not true innovations, its things that have already been done by other websites, and the technology that you mentioned is already tried and tested.

Also, the Dark Ages were horrible times that humanity wishes it never happened since it brought us back in the past, for a while, it did not move us forward.

Regarding Windows 8. The problem never was that it's hard to use, but that it was different. Elder people who never used any of system for a long time always found Win8+ easier to use. It seemed "hard" to old win7 users cause they pretty much lived in that, and then they got something different.

If you are to make the site Mobile-Friendly, know this:

- The buttons do not need to be any larger than a user's finger-tip
- Buttons that are too big take up space for other information
- There is always the option of simply making a Nexus Mods App with a mobile-friendly interface.
- As for an interface schematic, I would try to go with something close to the interfaces of the Amazon or Ebay mobile apps - but only instead of buying real-life things your downloading mods (and potentially donating to the mod developer if you like the mod)
- Do not go over-board in trying to simplify the interface - Keep the information, just put it somewhere more convenient Edited December 1, 2015 by DoradusMaximus

This is why Google/YouTube introduce their little changes one at a time. Of course YT has gone through some major changes in the past, they generally follow this little rule.

Now, having said that, I am obliged to say that I hate all sorts of change, and in this case even more, since Nexus has one of the best, coziest, user-friendly UI's I've ever seen.
Seriously, visiting your website is a delight, and the ads arent very bad, compared to other sites.
The color scheme is great and fits each game nicely, and the buttons for all important functions are clearly visible and good looking.

What I'm trying to say is, you dont need a redesign from an UI perspective, but since you are aiming for one, please at least try to keep things looking (visually) similar to what you have right now.
And if you are going to introduce major changes to how the sites look, then do them one step at a time, making sure us change-haters sort of ease into it.

Thank you.

By Making a mobile-app version of the site and keeping the PC/non-mobile-browser version the same, you can please both parties, without loosing support from your loyal fanbase.

Hello Guys. Love this place. I am looking into building a new player abode. Unfortunately The category search under the files drop-down is gone. I use that feature to search or browse files regularly. Will the category's feature be returning or is it gone forever.

EDIT: Wow that was fast. 30 seconds and it's back. You guys rock!!! ;)
