Site Feedback

[Donuts4me]

If you can't hide files from specific users, then maybe there should be a new policy that limits how many new mod pages one can create in a certain amount of time? Like no more than a few per day/week. 10 at the most.

 

I agree the guy flooding Skyrim is getting ridiculous.

[PippinTom]

Nearly same looking puppet uploaded 40+ times so far... Now imagine that whenever owner decides to "update" this herd by changing just one word in description - he can easily hide any actually usable mod that has been published/updated. Essentially easiest way to control the site without being an owner. I guess asking for ignore per file object or including files in global user ignore is in best interest of everyone.

[ebbluminous]

Yeah being able to hide mods from user option would be good. No idea when the Skyrim SE follower spam will cease...

 

And god forbid if those require updates...

[Tlam99]

so, you scared him away. He cluttered the new files section a bit. So what ?

THIS throws a bad light onto the "Community".

That's another point why the site needs "ignore users's files" option.

I'm not certain that this is really needed. There isn't an issue the vast majority of the time. And with the poster you're discussing, he did post about 10 new mods per day for a week. He would have eventually ran out of his stockpile and it would've stopped naturally. I don't think there was an intend to block the download list.

 

There have been cases before where a mod author posted a bunch of mods in a short amount of time. Usually, that was because the author was active on another platform and wanted to move their mods to here. A posting restriction like this would also impact those authors, and I don't think we want to scare them away with an annoying delay like this unless we have a real structural issue.

 

Ultimately, I think leaving the rules as is would be perfectly fine. And if there ever is a malicious poster who aims to disrupt the site, I'll trust the admin to make a judgement call.

 

More options to personalise the feed is always nice, but is it actually needed? It's not like we have hundreds of new files per day. The skyrim SE download has 25 posts per page, a week's worth of content is about 2 pages long. So even with the large amount of new mods, that would only have made it about 4 pages for the week.

Right, that seems to have been the case here.  That author has a lot of mods on Nexus and was moving them here.  The negative attitudes expressed toward that apparently caused the guy to remove all of them.  LoversLab now has less content and one less active mod author.  If he hadn't been scared away, he would have run out of mods to bring over, and the situation would have returned to normal.

 

So, I agree that unless posting is malicious, there's no need to restrict it.  We should be welcoming to mod authors.  If it's practical to add, a filter or blocking feature would allow members to screen out content that doesn't interest them.

Fair points. I'll admit me and certain others overreacted. I am personally sorry to that author if they ever read this.

 

I haven't been here as long as others. So, never seen anything like this. I was honestly wondering if someone was uploading tons of simple spam mods just to occupy space and block other mods from being seen. Not just in the Skyrim downloads section, but the list of new mods for ALL games on the LL home page. Now it all makes sense.

 

I was going to suggest the author (if they ever come back) maybe make things simpler by making fewer mod pages and have all mods of a certain type be on the same page. I noticed they all seemed to be either follower or add child mods. All the follower files and their descriptions could be on one page and then same with the children. That way that author's mods are only taking up 2/25 spots on one page instead of 20/25 on multiple pages.

 

Another option is for an author to have a temporary message at the top of all their mod descriptions saying something like "I am importing ## mods from another site. Don't worry, I won't be hogging the download section forever!" Something like that. Just give everyone a heads up on what is going on and when it will end.

 

Again, I am sorry for my reaction. I hope we can sort this out and welcome that mod author back and they could use either of my suggestions to make everyone happy.

i don't know how easy this can be done, But I dont see an option to change the files categories on the mods, like, I made a mod that was on WIP category, but when I finish the mod or at least I consider to be on an acceptable state, I can't change to the correct category, like Adult Mods - Utilities or Sexlab -Immersion

Second, I think there is a problem when changing a mod description for a mod that makes the mod seems like has been updated, and people has told me that, so maybe can be fixed with a minimum amount of words before a mod is considered "updated" or an option for the author to make the description change to be an "update" because it has important information, something I wanted to do

Doesn't the "edit silently" option do this? It only allows changes in the description, not for the files, images, or install instructions, but it certainly helps.

Right I forgot about that, I didn't know it didn't "update" the mod, thanks

for the other thing about category, is still weird because in Nexusmods you can't change categories either

Is it possible to have some extra security check for new uploaders before they're approved? I've reported them whenever I've seen them but they are sometimes downloaded by hundreds before they're taken down.

...

 

 

Seeing as there are more malware popping up regularly, would it be possible to make reported content or warnings in the discussions more visible (without opening up to abuse)?
Obviously it's going to take some time for moderators to investigate a report, and during that time there is essentially no indication for users that the mod/program is 'being investigated'.
Even if people warn each other in the discussion this is only visible if the user looks at the discussion rather than just downloading it.

Ya my activity feed as well as my friend’s isn’t updating either. 

 

I noticed the activity feeds were briefly fixed, and now showing as having no recent activity

 

Not sure who is supposed to be altering the activity feeds in the past month but I'm not sure they should be pushing changes through without testing them first, because this is the third issue with activity feeds specifically in the past 30 days

[Nonsequitur]

Why is my Profile... BLANK?

Ashal mentioned something about this on the Discord. The old system works, but was expensive, so the site moved to a new system. For unknown reasons, this broke the Activity in the profile. The short term fix happened because the site was reverted to the old system, and Ashal mentioned that they'd look for a better solution. 

There still seems to still be some kinks to work through.

I haven't had access to my device where I have Discord in quite a while, so thank you for this update on the issue.  I'd also missed what was said about the previous temporary fix.  How incredibly frustrating, not just for users but those managing the site.  That really does break my brain, trying to understand why simply moving to a new system would break something like the activity feed of all things, so if that's the case I understand why they were left with no answers before the fix.  

 

EDIT: Also noteable that posting replies takes....significantly longer now than immediately before the new activity feed issue.  Once I hit submit reply, it takes nearly 45 to 60 seconds to go through, while before it was almost immediate

I know there are probably more pressing issues, but there really needs to be a separate "New Blogs" and "Updated Blogs" tab on the main page, if that's even possible.

[AvoidTheCrown]

We really, REALLY need a limit of blog post per day per person.

There already are options to ignore user's Posts /Messages /Mentions /Signature, but even after checking all of them, I still see files posted by the user in https://www.loverslab.com/files/category/163-skyrim-special-edition/

 

Oh boy. I have some thoughts on this.

Its clear as day that the owner of this site doesn't want to or doesn't know how to implement content filters for downloads. This has been asked for over and over without result. Thats ok, its their site and money. But it would be nice if they could communicate the reason this isn't happening.

 

If its working with https://www.loverslab.com/discover/ I don't see how this cant be done on the downloads page too

I believe the discover feed is likely a native feature, and therefore inherits the underlying forum software's ignore feature. I've heard from other users that the downloads system is either a custom thing or an add-on, and therefore it makes sense that it may not be trivial (almost certainly possible though) to integrate the ignore function into it. I, for one, can certainly see the benefit in doing so, that's just my opinion.
