Welcome to Tesnexus/FO3nexus

 

From the Terms of Service that you are supposed to read before posting.

 

File and image database commenting terms and conditions

Please take the time to read and understand the following before commenting on any files or images uploading to this site.

 

Before leaving a comment or rating please be sure you have read and understood our terms and conditions for using the commenting system. We have a strict zero-tolerance policy for the breaking of our terms and people can and will be banned from the site without warning if they ignore them. Remember; ignorance is not an excuse.

 

The commenting and rating system is available on this site to provide users with:

 

* an interface to offer positive feedback on the functionality of the file in question based on the author’s initial intentions

* the ability to offer constructive criticism on aspects of the file that could be improved

* the chance to ask for feature requests and discuss such requests with other users of the site or the author

* the ability to ask for help in troubleshooting problems with the file in question

 

 

If your comment does not fit in to the above criteria then do not post. If you disagree with the content of a file on the site then do not post. Simply ignore the file or report the file for moderator viewing and move on.

 

If your comment contains text that is likely to personally offend other users of the site either in the language you use or the message of your text then do not post. We take personal attacks very seriously

 

If you believe that someone else’s post does not fit into these criteria then you are encouraged to report the comment in question for moderator review. Above all do not post in reply to the offending comment however good intentioned your post might be, even if you are the author of the file in question. This is known as “feeding the trolls” and “forum vigilantism” and is frowned upon by the moderator staff. You may well end up with a suspension from the site if you partake in this activity.

 

 

I personally prefer to see a comment on why someone rated a mod as they did no matter if they are high or low. Low ratings will usually be reported for a moderator to look at. If the rating is very low, a 1 with no legitimate reason, it will be deleted, and if it is accompanied by a rude comment the poster may be banned (instaban) Rating a 10, even with no constructive comment will usually be overlooked. Please look through the site and see what is accepted and what is not.

 

 

Kudos are not covered in the terms

Kudos are a thank you given by a user to a poster who has been especially helpful or who has made an especially good point in a post. To give one, click on the [give] right next to the Kudos: below the poster's name on the left.

 

If you have more questions please feel free to ask.

Kudos implemented @ the Nexus

 

Premium Membership Info for TESNexus or Fallout3Nexus

 

- Updating Premium Accounts

 

NOTE: You can access this in the future...after you login, you can see a "Premium Credit" section at the bottom-right corner of the page and you can click the "Top-Up" link which takes you to the Premium Membership Info page.

 

Here are some features copied from the info page:

• Uncapped file downloads. Premium members can download from the file servers at the maximum speed possible while normal members are capped to downloading at 150kb/sec to reduce congestion.
  
• Premium only file server. Premium members can download from a file server available just for them that no normal members can download from. No connection saturation.
  
• Download manager/accelerator support. Premium members can download from the premium member file server using download managers and accelerators with full download pausing/resuming and multi-threading/tasking capabilities for top speeds.
  
• No advertising. Premium members will never see any advertisements on this site.
  
• Result preferences. Premium members can choose to increase the number of files or comments shown on individual pages.
  
• Full download history. Access to your full download history on the site.
  

The primary reason for "Premium Membership" is to support this site to keep its doors open. It costs thousands of dollars to host this site on multiple servers due to how popular it is.

 

The rest is just little "thank you" features for helping to keep the site running.
