Banned from Nexus

XD.  That's ME, only more reserved and eloquent!

 

My only two hitches are he's drinking Bud in a fucking 'bottle-can'.  #1 BUD (pukes), #2 Bottle can (makes beer taste funny)

 

I agree. If you want American beer it should be Yuengling (whatever flavor you prefer) from a colored glass bottle.

 

 

like americans would know jack shit about beer... even you folks have to admit that if you want a good beer theres no way around a niiiiiiiiice german beer ... or our "oktoberfest".... one of the things we will always be superior in

 

oh, and blitzkrieg, after all its our invention

 

... which sadly isnt appreciated that much anymore, so we stick back to superiority-concerning-cold-ones, everyone needs a little sth to push the self-esteem ...

 

 

Yuengling is the best American beer there is, although it's only available in the Northeast as far as I know. But that is the oldest brewery in the US (since the 1700s) and the family were German biermeisters for hundreds of years in the Old World. I'd put it up against European brew I've had (and I've had several) and they make it in several flavors. I usually just drink their Lager, but their Porter and Chesterfield Ale is pretty good, too. Then there's the Bock they make every Autumn.

 

But don't get me wrong. I still love me some German and Dutch beers, too. Just don't knock Yuengling until you try it.

 

 

I'm Norske by heritage so, Yuengling is right up my ally for "American" kind of...Scandinavian brews...(did that make sense?). I gotta say I love Heineken, too! But, it's expensive here in NY...Shit, everything is expensive in NY.

Well, well, well...looks like ole' Dorkone is IP tracking everyone, world wide, even our site. Been doing it for quite sometime. Some of you maybe aware of this, but is this even legal??

 

Even Hard drives...wow. Uninstalling my NMM now.

HOLY SKAGSUCK!! How you dug up this info? I'd love to see what they have on me...

 

 

It's all right here, brother: http://extremetracking.com/open?login=skyrim

 

Bah, so they found out I have naked girls in one folder, death metal in another, and Skyrim in another one.

 

 

 

 

And the muzzle of my 9mm in their face in another. Two best friends: Heckler and Koch.

[myuhinny]

Get some pretty funny ideas while converting micro bikini's and reading this thread. If they are using the NMM to spy why not direct it to a specific folder on your hard drive maybe name the folder big moons and fill it full of pictures. They see it and go oohh what's this? Let's check it out. Click and their screen is filled by a huge ass picture of a big ass ass with the words *Are you finding anything!* *That's not it* *The ass you are looking for is in another picture* and to top it off make all of the pictures a Rick roll type so that they can't close it maybe even throw in some farting noises.

Last year, around Sept-Oct I had to re-install Skyrim. Something I was not looking forward to. But, game were a real mess

I just did not had the energy to sit and go through what was causing random shit to appear.

 

So, okay, finally getting somewhere and game is installed. I thought to myself "okay, lets try dat NMM and see what the fuss is all about" (were ofc already familiar with MO)

I must say, everything seemed to work fine. I were slowly getting back to the amount of mods I had earlier.

 

But one day, Steam refused to connect. I tried so many things, but Steam would not go online.

(it were stuck on some kind of update rutine check and never asked me if I wanted to go offline.)

Other weird stuff happen as well. Like, websites finished loading only the half of the stuff, and some sites just took ages to load.

(I have pretty decent internetz; 100Mbit)

 

Okay, no big deal. Just re-install Steam and it should work. Now, what I did not know at this time. If you uninstall Steam, all games in your Steam Library gets uninstalled as well.

So bye bye all games. It made me rage and I were ready to go Berserk. I still haven't recovered from this shit. Games is slowly getting back on the hdd and more mods added.

 

Now, I am not saying NMM were the reason for stuff that happen, but I have never experienced such thing before. Some really serious Fucked up stuff.

 

So, MO, I'm sorry. I will never cheat on you again.

 

The part about steam stuck in a updating, that was a steam issue. I had that happen long before I got skyrim or FONV and long before I started modding them or even heard of nexus. It is and has been a ongoing problem with steam off and on for awhile. Supposedly it was finally fixed and fixed for good. I know since about this time last year it has not happened again.

 

As for nexus. I only go there mostly to DL mods i want and occasionally post encouragement posts to Mod authors of mods I like. Otherwise I spend my time here.

 

[gvman3670]

A couple weeks ago Steam made my computer go haywire, too. Man, it's just another reason to hate them, too!

Referrer on sites are common practice, not only the Nexus does that. Let's be fair here. But also let's be clear: I, like many others, don't like that common practice, so I do the following:

 

Install the TOR browser bundle. Find it here:

https://www.torproject.org/

 

It's a pre-configured browser that sends your IP through a proxy cascade which is called the TOR network. These are multiple proxies that keep your pc from directly accessing the net but send it through multiple computers that are between you and your pc. So noone can track your IP, at least not with a huge amount of investigation, knowledge and root access to the aforementioned proxies. It's perfectly legal, and in times of worldwide data mining it should be common knowledge what TOR does.

 

If you want to not let referrer track your ip, install the software. And DON'T install addons in that browser. Each addon is a security risk.

 

If the NMM is checking your hard drives for information of any kind and uses it in a way that you have not given your consent, I'd like to see proof of that. Because that would be computer sabotage, which IS illegal. R.S. would get in trouble. Have you analyzed the network traffic the NMM causes?

 

I wouldn't install NMM because I'm highly, let's say, aware of potential security risks (some called it paranoid before the whole NSA / GCHQ crap came up, these voices are silent now). And atm I have no sandboxed OS to test the software without risk.

But with mod managers like Wrye Bash I'm on the safe side. This pearl doesn't mess neither with my data nor my game.

[Guest Ragna_Rok]

yep, nothing better than a couple of "fuck you nexus" posts to let off some steam (gaming pun ftw )... after all throbbin robins mind is simply fucked up beyond recognition

actually i dont give a crap, mainly because im not living on US

 

[Guest xthejester]

its me or most of Appollodown file descriptions on nexus looks like it was written by a crackhead weed junkie?

 

I find them to be highly entertaining. Tells you everything you need to know, with tons of extraneous details and clever quips.

 

I quite literally laughed out loud when I read...

 

"Dovakiin, Dovakiin...not a single sardine!"

 

Now I can't help but hear that every time.

[Guest Ragna_Rok]

 

 

 

 

Thanks, Rag! I appreciate you sharing that rage-injected rant, man I was seeing red that day. I saw the RS dickriders on their banning warpath, and how it's only gotten worse in the last three years. Glad you got a kick out of it, funny and true.

 

Another thing about the Dixus, you can sit and look at nude mods, gore/blood but banned if you say something like: "This looks fucking cool". Erm...what?? I can stare a 3D pussy, but can't say "shit". Literally.

 

although i don't hate nexus as most people do, this made my day

 

 

 

It's not so much as people hate nexus as mush as they hate the people that are running the site.

And it's hard not to blame him for getting so pissed, after 7 years of sticking with Nexus they banned him for some completely bullshit excuse. Another way to look at it is to say that if they didn't pull any of this crap we wouldn't have anything to complain about in the first place, or at the very least anything legit to complain about. 

 

hey corespore... long time no see

 

since im in celebration mood, i wanted to encourage you to keep modding, say thx for being a good buddy over here on LL... which means, I decided to blast the last of my "likes"-capacity today on random posts of yours.

 

thx for being a great guy, corespore, you have a good heart, i also still remember your story with nexus and applaud your decision once more...  *gives cookies* ... *gives random likes until max is reached for today* ... cheers, buddy

Neither do I, but what has that to do with worldwide data mining and the Nexus referrer records? It doesn't matter where you live.

[blabba]

Okay, you have officially blown my freaking mind! how the hell did you manage to get Nexus to allow you to post a LL reference?

Congrats on the success of your mod BTW

.....but....still, how?

 

Everyone is *now or soon to be* technically free from having their credits section on the mod upload pages be tampered with, or at the least they will/should be notified about it now.

 

This includes previously 'banned' sites like LL, VGU, Moddb, TES Renewal, etc...

The filters are still there and you may only give 'indirect' or 'nicknames' to the sites but you will/should not receive a warning or any other demerit any longer.

 

If a moderator edits your credits, you can (and should) throw this quote from Dark0ne at them and tell 'em Dark0ne's cleared it all:

 

If, for example, your credits section had "Thanks to the LL/TESR/VGU/MDB community for beta testing and feedback" in it then I think I'd be inclined to let it slide. While I have a dislike of Lovers Lab, I don't care that much about simple lines like this.

 

Just try not to be blatantly spite filled towards nexus or actually try to link or spell out the entire 'forbidden' website's name.

Dark0ne still has to bring up the issue with his mod team, but has promised to do so.

[Skyrimfloo]

After seeing your exchange for the credits stuff I was really flabbergasted to see how that darkone dude adressed LL.

 

I understand animosity against mods and admins that abuse their power, but honestly, referring to a community like that really offended me. I joined LL almost the same day than Nexus simply because I wanted mods from both places. I don't really give a flying fuck about the reasons that any other LL and Nexus members, or the communities as wholes, have against each other, since the majority of us are just random nerds in the internet who come here and there just to pick cool stuff for our game. I would bet that most people that has an account here has it on Nexus as well, since where the fuck else are we going to get most of our mods. But after seeing that mail, I see clearly that at least that dude is a top level asshole, and I feel simpathy for any decent Nexus member for having such admin/mod... 

 

Sigh. It's like elementary school all over again, only that the 8-years old bully got the headmaster's chair. But I won't say "fuck you Nexus" because 99.9% of people there has nothing to do with it. Somebody who can't see through labels and insult "LL" as a whole, every member, like that, is pitiful at most.

Epic video. Welcome to LL.

If you check a few pages back Blabba posted up the contents of the email exchange he had with Dark0ne in spoiler tags. This is just a quote from it.

Direct link to the exchange between me and Dark0ne: http://www.loverslab.com/topic/10134-banned-from-nexus/?p=733810

The only reason why I bothered to bring this issue up with him is because unfortunately, I probably will need to upload a mod there in the hopes of it getting popular enough for 'general' consumption. Though of course if it doesn't become popular, then that's fine as well, just means I'll be doing all the armour conversions for it as I can .

 

The reason why I fought for the credits thing is because I have received help in making the mod from plenty of users here on LL, as well as some help from a few users on TESR, so If I can't credit them then I wasn't going to upload anyway.

 

But yea, Dark0ne has yet to notify his moderating team (he said he'd get back to me once he did though).

[Endiness]

Is your list of credits so long that you couldn't list all the usernames? I wonder if this is more complicated than it has to be.

[blabba]

Simply put, yes.

 

It's more complicated, because nexus chose to make it that way. Honestly speaking, no one has any right to prevent me or any other mod author from NOT giving credit where it is due. It's even against nexus' own rules! So yes, removing those credits is highly hypocritical, but now at least I won't have to worry over a silly ban because I actually followed nexus rules (neither should other mod authors, if they so choose to upload there).

 

It's not a big thing to users, they just download and for the most part ignore credits. But when your making a mod and you get the help and resources of others, then you'll understand why crediting is a big deal and why it's the only way mod authors can say thanks to others who have put time and effort into making their own mod dream come true. (Well at least that's how it goes for me, I won't claim to be conceited enough that I speak for all mod authors here)

 

With all this said, I'll stop off tracking the thread here

[Endiness]

How is putting LL community instead of listing out of all the people's names who've helped you fits more in line with "giving credit where it is due"? LL community doesn't say much, other than everyone who has an account here. No point in crediting me, because I didn't do shit, lol. Maybe I'm just misunderstanding something.

It's a good point and furthermore Nexus mods might see it that way too.  It'd be pretty convenient for them to see crediting of blacklisted communities instead of usernames as "pushing it"

 

I'd be wary personally.

[AwfulArchdemon]

Consider how long the ban list is. Crediting uploaders/creators would always look bad on their end, because everyone who deserves the credit/made the mods is listed as 'banned'. Those people inevitably become "active" members here. They also immediately talk shit on Nexus here.

 

Nexus just keeps banning people like crazy. It's hard to keep a 'credit system' when a lot of the uploaders found their testers here, especially given the admitted disdain for LL that DarkOne has. Afterall, how can you give proper credit, when links are an offense to the TOS of the site?

 

Yay !
