Rate Limit Question/Suggestions

[nightstick24]

Hey there, I had some time recently so I decided to mod Skyrim SE. Noticed Vortex exists so I decided to try it out, so far it's going pretty well - love the interface, it looks very nice - but I've hit this Rate Limit. From some googling it seems there's a 2,500 limit on the API which I've exceeded - about 800 mods apparently. I absolutely haven't downloaded 800 mods, but I have moved mods so that's probably user-error.

 

 

My question is: Is there any way I can increase or bypass this? I'm in the middle of modding, just over halfway, and this puts a complete and utter stop on everything I was doing.

 

 

My suggestions are:

 

• PLEASE make it so downloads that fail due to the rate limit remain in your download list for later. I was downloading a ton of mods and it ended up getting late so I went and made sure to start the download for all the really big mods I knew I wanted so that they'd finish overnight and I wouldn't have to wait on them, then I went to sleep. I woke up this morning to check and had 170 notifications of rate limit exceeded and download failing. They're removed from the list automatically so I don't have a clue what mods ended up failing and which didn't. I had to spend hours checking my history and my download list to make sure they matched.
• Expand the rate limit for premium members - I got premium to support Nexus and download stuff faster, doesn't make sense that I now have to sit here and wait forever to download stuff, there's absolutely no benefit in getting premium then.

Hopefully something can change because this is quite annoying.

 

Thanks
