moho25 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 @Creeper -- I don't see it as a problem for a few reasons: 1. Even if we miss something, there's literally no way to figure out exactly which mod has been missed. Not without paging through all 400+pages and cross-referencing. Doing this is both impractical and time-prohibitive. Searching isn't viable since you can't search for something when you don't know what you're searching for. 2. The best way to determine if a mod was missing would be to search by Project ID. However, this only works if all projects ever created are still present. This doesn't seem to be the case, considering that ThaneMOD's ID is 9042... out of 4170 projects. 3. Ultimately, unreleased projects are irrelevant in a modding context. I'm not saying the ideas aren't worth preserving, but there's a lot of ideas worth preserving that will be lost in the form of blogs, forum posts and more. So, moral of the story... be careful, lol. We get one shot. @Tarshana -- I actually put together that post pretty quickly and am seeing mistakes. I'll need to give it an edit after dinner, lol. Thanks, though :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CreeperLava Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 (edited) dang i hope folk throw their mods up on the Nexus. i dont generally trust most other mod sites beyond the Nexus and avoid them when i can so it'd be nice to get them here but i have to say dang this is a big project that should be done by Bioware... i dont get why they havent done it yet or at least said they are doing it. anyways keep up the good fight friends. @qwertyzeldar Thanks. Help would be appreciated :smile:. @giftfishDidn't know so many projects had been deleted, definitely makes it way more impractical to use the method I was describing.

CreeperLava Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 ELI5: How do I message someone on youtube? Depends if their account has been updated recently or not. If it has, the About tab should have a button to send a message. Otherwise, I haven't seen any way to contact them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
