Kryzhal Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Stop downloading vortex and please keep using the old nexus or other mo'sthey made this purely for premium and other profit winning things. download speed gone to 1MBPS and if you want more you gotta pay. the new team on blacktreegaming has done this purely to gain money from it and the site was created to create and share mods for free with unlimited download speed ect WITH NO PAYMENTS!!! if you decide to start a site like this you gotta pay for it yourself, and not the users.

Rabbit1251 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 To address your misguided post Vortex is a utility that helps apply and organize your mod usage. It is there for your own convenience and it costs nothing to anyone to use. The Nexus or Blacktreegaming do not make a cent off of it. If you do not use it they could care less. I, myself, use two different versions of the Nexus Mod Manager to organize my mods and am happy with that. If you are unhappy with Vortex then use NMM or do a manual install. No one cares. Many people have had no trouble with Vortex and get along fine with it. But to recommend to them not to use it is just misguided on your part.

Kryzhal Posted December 26, 2018 Author Share Posted December 26, 2018 lol check every comment people made about vortex.:anywhere) its absolute trash. your point is as invalid as it coulb be. im here to tell people not to use it so they wont continue progress on this trash program. NMM has always being great and now there is no support for it and they tell us to use this broken piece of....and telling me they make no penny out of it says enough that you dont know anything.

Dark0ne Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 download speed gone to 1MBPS and if you want more you gotta pay. The download speed for non-Premium members has been 1Mbps since 2005, when Premium Membership was introduced. This year the speed was increased to 2Mbps for Supporters (not the same as Premium) and people who do not use adblockers on the site. the new team on blacktreegamingThere is no "new team". I started the site back in 2001 and I'm still here now, making the major decisions. and the site was created to create and share mods for free Correct, it was. It still achieves that goal. with unlimited download speed ect WITH NO PAYMENTS!!! Incorrect. It was made at a time when sites hosting Morrowind mods were dropping off the web, along with all their mods, due to the large fees required to run a modding site. I stepped in to make a site that would, and I quote from the time, "stand the test of time". I was fully aware of how much a mod hosting site cost to run, and struggled in the early years until -- you guessed it -- I introduced a bandwidth limit and Premium Membership in 2005. if you decide to start a site like this you gotta pay for it yourself, and not the users. Yeah, no. The site costs upwards of $1m USD a year to run and maintain now. I'm not sure if you could fund that out of your own pocket, but I certainly can't.

rmm200 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I am impressed that toxic posts still get civil responses. It would be really easy to reply in kind.Especially to trolls with one post count (not this one) that I would swear are account hopping... So this is just a note to all responders: Well done!

2much4l1 Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I don't like Vortex either, but there is no reason to believe that Dark0ne or other site managers are acting in bad faith. A premium membership in the Nexus is still the best deal in town. In fact the one thing that would ease my torment over Vortex and the "New Nexus" is if the changes did indeed generate more revenue for what is still my favorite site.

xvdoc Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 As far as I know, downloading vortex is optional. You don't have to if you don't want to. Manual installation of mods is still good and it is more effective. Installing only the certain files [within the mod(s)] that you want and deleting other files to save space and esp etc (...if you're knowledgeable).

raisedbywolv3s Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 they made [Vortex] purely for premium and other profit winning things. Huh? How does Nexus profit from Vortex? They're giving it away for free. if you decide to start a site like this you gotta pay for it yourself, and not the users. You do? Why? I never heard of that rule before.
