Eessh.... That's the last place I would want to host anything; personally, it's not the safest website in the world. But if you've got no other option? Well, you do what you have do.

Is the safety issue virus related or hacking related? Or something else?

Virus-related, unless they cleaned stuff up. It was pretty ad-infested last I dared to not use an ad-block.

Oh is that so? I guess since i always use adblock on there i never had an issue with viruses/popups on Mediafire. So it should be otherwise okay to upload your stuff on right? As long as you're using adblock?

Not a wave and more like a ripple.  The positive side of this Dork0ne/Nerxus fuckery is modders will FINALLY start seeking alternative sites to upload their content.  His greed has the potential to bust up his own monopoly.  Nerxus will probably still be 'the biggest site' but it won't be 'the only site'.  That is a good thing.

 

EDIT: And there's no way for LL to get a piece of the Nerxus pie.  It's just not gonna happen.

I mean... Any site is safe with adblock. People might actually want to upload to LL if they don't see ads for foot long dildos. ?

This...isn't going to happen. At least, not before the heat death of the universe, anyhow.

 

I still have yet to hear of a truly viable alternative to nexus, which says a lot...or, rather, says nothing; since no other site gets advertised.

Wishes and reality.

Actually, what I have heard, modders are allowed to remove selective, not complete nuke.

For me a fake deal. More modders might stay, more mods remain on the site.

Give back ? Nothing, still no control of the IP, new TOA apply, it's really sad.
