I read this reply as a promise that the new profile uploading features will be implemented as truly optional with no impact on the people who don't want to use them. That's good news! Such a reassurance is needed, because only several months ago the profiles themselves were added as an obligatory to use feature with far reaching consequences for people who don't want to use them but have no way to switch them of. (You can't "not use the profiles", by design you are always using some default profile. Even if you never create a profile you are using the one the software created for you with all the consequences of the virtual install logic) jinxxed0 was simply expressing the concern that I also (an other users) have that the new features will not be entirely optional and will create additional problems for the users who don't want to use them. So it is really nice the have the assurance of the site owner that this is not going to be the case.It would be a huge breach of privacy if all the mods you use in NMM were automatically shared with everyone on the internet. So, naturally, this is going to be completely opt-in and can safely be ignored if you have no interest in it. What I meant was that concern is that adding the new functionality will reflect on the usability and modder-friendliness of the software for those who don't want to use them. About the privacy... it seems there is no way to prevent NMM from trying to match one's mods against the database on Nexus so I guess it is not possible to prevent it from regularly sending my mod-list to the Nexus's servers. So I guess I have already agreed to give-up my privacy by using it. The Privacy Policy http://forums.nexusmods.com/index.php?/privacypolicy/ doesn't really say anything about what happens with this data. It says the logs are been " analysed " but doesn't specify for what purposes and there is nothing about sharing it with 3rd parties or not.

The speeds a standard user gets are not bad at all. They aren't that bad, unless you have 0.03 mb/whatever. I don't think it should be removed, due to the points mentioned above.

Vijij Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Good job, can't wait for the new features! I know this sounds like a stupid suggestion, but can you consider adding a "chatting" functionality? Or maybe, instead of hosting up your entire mod list, you can click a button or something next to the mod, which puts it under your name in a list-like thing, where you can find what mods a person thinks another person should use, without having to check what the person endorses on Nex by opening the web browser. I hope you got what I am saying, I'm really bad at explaining. >_> I would help you in anyway I can, but I really don't know how to beta-test a software, or know coding...

He's a supporter for God's sake. Why would you do that?I wasn't aware it was going to be an opt-in, either. I don't think most people are. Everything about it has felt invasive, unnecessary and overcomplicated. I haven't forgotten how upset people were when they installed 0.61 in good faith, had to reinstall their entire mod stack (which may have taken years to collect, tweak and get to play nice with each other) and when expressing their disappointment were essentially met with "Well, you should have read the agreement more carefully. It was right there in big red letters, you contemptible morons". This is why I'm still using 0.56.1, and I asked two pages back whether this still happens when you upgrade. I didn't receive a response, so I have no intentions of upgrading, simple as that.Are you going to condescend me and try to make me feel stupid as well? I suppose you have a better claim to do so than you did for Jinxxed0, because I'm not a supporter or premium member (and this is a prime example of why I am not), but come on, man. I understand it's your site, your rules, your little kingdom where your word is law, and I get that. I just don't understand why you would go out of your way to make people who have given you money feel stupid because they don't know as much about the software as you do. Ignorance does not equal stupidity, and misinformation does not warrant such condescension. I like this site, and I like being a part of this community, and I appreciate the webspace. And I understand this is a business and source of income for you. But sometimes, man, sometimes I have to really bite my tongue when I read your correspondences with the community. And I don't think I'm alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
