AzazelGremory Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Only problem with EU users having to go to GameFront is that we'll struggle getting mods downloaded after we've waited for ages for the site to load. I'm sitting with a 100/100MB internet and have an easier time to download a 70GB game than downloading a mod from GF... Screw us I suppose.

AzerDraco Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 Dark0ne, I applaud your decision to help GameFront maintain some semblance of uniformity and "brand". It may seem absurd to some, but this issue is about GameFront being able to enforce control over content created specifically to be hosted on their site. It affects many things, but the greatest factor is trust. Having mods reposted to other sites can lead to those reposted mods, or the server connection itself, being a possible infection vector for any kind of malware by less scrupulous individuals. Dark0ne, if Nexus has the storage capacity, a mutually beneficial arrangement could be reached. Have the affected mods link in their descriptions to the GameFront mod page, as well as a link to their home landing page. If Nexus has the storage capacity available, allow GameFront to keep an archive of their files here, with the files unavailable. In this way, if GameFront experiences service issues as they did in 2016, Nexus will be poised to keep the files safe and accessible. Also, it might prove beneficial in the future if Nexus and GameFront entered into some form of "Mutual Exclusivity" arrangement, backed up by some actual legal authorization. As you said, pertaining to the "who is involved", you weren't surprised. If they are doing this to GameFront, they will do it to Nexus if they aren't doing so already. Having an arrangement like this, where GameFront has the primary mod link and Nexus "has their back" with backups would mean that mod authors on GameFront could be resonably assured that their mods will always be accessible.

You must have Canadian blood in you, because this is the most polite 'go f*#@ yourself for f*#@ing us over' that I've ever read. GameFront looks to be a website that officially killed the golden goose. They had a good thing going, but then got greedy, and now, they get nothing.FileTrekker wrote: There's no bad blood at all between us and Nexus, I have a lot of time and respect for Robin and he's been super supportive. All I would say to that though is to not confuse the corporate entities who owned and mismanaged GameFront with the volunteers who have tried to keep it going and are now running it, trust me I'd be the first in line to agree with you with regards to Ziff Davis Media or Defy Media. I call them out by name now because they're gone and bust for the reasons you stated so I doubt they'll come after me for breaking my NDA. But they aren't around anymore. All that's left is the good bits (we like to think) and we're not financially motivated.

Thanks to you it's now twice as much of a chore to browse Black and White 1/2 mods, because everything on your site has no screenshots to show off the mods. Gonna be real fun to find the race changing mods I decided not to download two days ago.You know these mods aren't yours, right? Just because you hosted them once doesn't make them yours. It's up to individual modders whether they want their content hosts on another site and if they have a problem with it, they could have contacted NexusMods themselves.I'd say "I don't mean to be pissy" but I honestly really do. Your little pissing contests has done the community no f*#@ing good. Thanks for nothing.@LunarDarkness... I just checked the Black&White filepages, and I see a bunch of the mods that have screenshots for them... not sure what's got your panties in a twist...
