Should we post our mods on Nexus?

[orinEsque]

Person who decides if mod will be on the platform. Some Community Manager just removed this - https://www.nexusmods.com/baldursgate3/mods/5835.
You already have a crowd.
Listen to what I said and do what I said now, or you will be banned.




You fool. What she's doing now is suicide. What I suggest is Guerrilla warfare tactics. No "sucking", only emotional fools like you are "sucking" here, and those who get banned.
What I tell her to do is silent winning against a huge crowd. Like Body Type Selector author did. He is not "sucking". He won.

So new mod posters can't hide comments, nor can they delete comments.

Hmm.
Write a letter (Nexus PM) to a Community Manager who allowed Body Type Selector, https://www.nexusmods.com/profile/Pickysaurus, explain the situation, and ask him politely to delete and lock comments.
Crowd is only getting bigger, from what I see, therefore you are getting reported more and more.
For now, add Community Manager screenshot in the locked comment at the least, it is the only thing you can do now.
Add second Locked comment and clarify that you are the original author who posts for the first time on Nexus - this is very important, or you will get banned for multiple accounts.
Clarify that you can't lock comment section, or you would. And do not engage.
Your only way of winning is Guerilla warfare tactics.

Where is this crowd ?

[loregamer]

Yes.
Guerrilla warfare tactics is the only way to win.

I think you're misunderstanding this place's appeal. We like having our OWN space where we can be ourselves and post our mods. Platforming ourselves on the biggest modding platform is not some intrinsic win that MUST be achieved by any means. If this place had hordes of out of place newfags populate the mod section, I'd probably beg @rusty_shackleford to lock the forum. Platforming to as many people as possible sounds miserable

The experiment was testing the waters to see if Nexus moderation has become more lax. It hasn't. Or, at the very least, we'd need to jump through a bunch of hoops and grovel to keep our mods up. I don't see what's more to be achieved or why orin should even lift a finger further. If Dignify gets taken down in the state it's in, then we don't post our mods there

In your comment section. And news spread fast. Nexus, Discord, Reddit.
It's enough to get reported once.

"experiment was testing the waters" - it is not an "experiment", nor it is "testing the waters" - waters (new administration) were tested by Body Type Selector (https://www.nexusmods.com/oblivionremastered/mods/353). And its author won, with Guerilla warfare tactics.

I gave only the information for potential survival of her mods outside of this radical forum.
I suggested to remove the radical talk, change the name to "No Real-life Politics in Baldur's Gate"/"in Faerûn"/"in Forgotten Realms", and do not engage with radical/politically charged comments from the opposing to her side, nor be the source of radical speech.
I am not on "your" side, nor I am on the "opposing" side. I only found this mod interesting for removing forced real-life politics from the Forgotten Realms.
What to do next with this mod - is orin's choice, I have no control over it whatsoever.

I will not engage further. Have a good day.

Normalising such in the public sphere isn't a bad idea, if ever you want things to change and there's a chance at it.
The pendulum must swing back through the centre, to get to the other side. It does not teleport.
If they ban it again though (due to ad hominem), then **** em, Dignify is so tame.

I will lobby hard to prevent us becoming too milquetoast. If we normalize our behavior too much then too many centrist ******* like this show up thinking we're their buddy.

See their team that's "all about diversity":
https://next.nexusmods.com/about

How the **** does nexusmods have 20 developers????
I only counted actual programmers.

They have hired a third (white) female now though at least.
Now they have "Customer Support Specialist", "Office Manager", and "Product Manager" ran by females. Such important board-level roles! Oh and the black dog. Such a bastion of feminism and diversity!
The only thing those "developers" are developing are new reasons to ban people for tickling their anus the wrong way.

So, compared to when I last posted about this in March 2024 (above):
https://www.nexusmods.com/about
The head ****** is still listed as "Founder", and his chief toadie and dog (STILL the only "diversity" besides a few new white women, this is practically the Huffington Post) are still there, so they're still involved.
Aside from one or two posts that have switched and promotions, they have a new QA and content creator team, and that's....about it. The main **** "moderator" (matthew) has now gone, but the rest are still there, as are the majority of the (tech) team.
They have a new CEO and CTO (likely who they "sold" it to), but the main team overall are still the same people. Don't expect much change, here.

Then:

Now:

26/34 of the people that were there in March 2024, are still there, lol. (Including the ******* dog).
The fact they've "sold" makes no difference when the overall team is the same.

When you step out your door, do you scream NIGGGGEERRRRR at the top of your lungs? How about at work? (Don't say you do, lol. Though it would be funny).
It is the same thing. You may present yourself when in someone ELSE'S territory in a different way, then you would at "home" (here).

It's not about becoming "milquetoast" or changing yourself overall, but putting on a suit and tie to when "speaking to the public" (outside of here), until something changes. And if nothing changes, it will only get worse.
For the record I don't completely agree with that guy, but I also don't think it's good that the **** lefties control the narrative on everything.
When topics are unmoderated, it speaks for itself how much support there is for stuff, but until a "change" happens, "they" will retain control, and people won't be able to see that it's "ok" to not just be radical left and nothing else.

Regardless, as per there not being much difference in the Nexus team above (2/3 of the moderator team, and 75% of the 2024 staff are still the same), nothing will change on that front, so it doesn't matter for there. Hopefully better avenues open up.

hey @orinEsque, a notorious *** kelocena commented your Dignify, tell her to eat **** and die plz

The mod looks like it's deleted? I can't even see it in my mod list, no message or anything.

Thank you for being at war, UsernameMustbeBetwee. I am too.

But I think you misunderstand, loregamer. I don't think he wants to flood this place with tons of members, although I doubt the owner would complain about all the money that much traffic would bring in. What he's trying to do is advance our foothold. The leftist scum is exceptionally good at it, and they'll keep doing exactly what he's trying to do, but with their degeneracy. So even though it may look like he's "taking it too seriously", he's only doing so because they've left us no choice. And you're telling a guy who is on your side and who is advancing a cause you care about, to stop fighting. Bad idea. You need to be encouraging him.

But as someone mentioned, I'll keep to the subject - Where can I download the whitewashed Wyll mod? Now that I know it exists, and now that I know it just got taken down off Nexus.

What he was saying seemed more akin to infiltration rather than a movement. It wouldn't exactly affect the "full" version of the mods here.
If you never take back ground, you'll only continue to lose it.

Doesn't matter though anyway, seems the fact nexus was "sold" is moot considering 75% of the 2024 team is still there. (The main *** and his toadie, all the techies, 2/3 of the community managers/moderators, the black dog listed for diversity, etc.).

I think he was pretty mask off in his final message what his intention was. But even if that's true, doing "guerilla tactics" and "infiltration" and turning our hobby into a holy war is still baffling to me. He clearly held this place in very low regard and saw staying here as "losing". I like what we have here, and I don't think any of the modders (or Rusty as a host) view this as an avenue for warfare. It's a hobby, and I'd rather just be left alone. The occasional Nexus seethe here and there is great, but that's why I told @UsernameMustBeBetwee he's taking this way too seriously.

I feel like the narrator in Fight Club when he wakes up when Tyler's gone and he sees everyone working in the house and what fight club's become

That might not be the same for everyone, though! No-one's forcing you to upload your own personal mods anywhere.
As to holy war, like it or not, you're in one, lol. Hence not being able to do or say anything anywhere other than here. And what happens if here is no longer here anymore?
Regarding Nexus, unless they fully clean house it will likely always be the same.

I’m firstly motivated to protect what we have here and the community, but I have no quarrels over you guys reuploading our mods on Nexus and fighting the good fight there. It doesn’t have to be us, and you guys seem more motivated to engage in this for culture war reasons than just modding itself.

Everything here is open permission, so I don’t have any quarrels with you guys reuploading stuff there. Plus we can’t, couldn’t, and wouldn’t stop you guys from doing that. I’m sure @orinEsque could even be persuaded to make a lite version of NA and upload it herself.

I just don’t like this place being disrespected or feeling like our hobby is being subverted. Me and a lot of the others just do this for the love of the game

Well this hobby is probably never turned into a holy war, except when the mods are regarding the war itself. Nobody complains about turning your wizard's staff handle from light silver to darker gray. But the war is on when you want to look at people of your own race so that you actually enjoy the game. When I found this forum, I hadn't even clicked the link yet but I already knew this conversation would be going on. The war and these mods are inseparable.

Whoever was on Nexus arguing against Orin and trying to get these mods taken down, was a child molester. Most likely.

[orinEsque]

You guys are making this way too complicated. If they don't take Dignify down, i'll post No Alphabets lite on nexus.

• I made the mod for myself and if more people can enjoy it, why not. I don't see why I should limit its visibility if there's not much of a barrier anymore.
• I like download counts, but not enough to make something that I don't need for myself.
• it will reach a bigger audience
• normies. whether they bother coming here or not, will know mods like this can and should be made for people who want to play that way.
• MOST IMPORTANTLY: it will **** the ****** off knowing that the "banned" mod hasn't been taken down.
• All of this is probably gonna be moot because i expect to get banned before the week is over, for just existing. ******** will wake up and start a discord raid on the Dignify report button any time now.

I don't think I'll change the name. It is what it is. No amount rebranding is gonna make it non gay-go-away mod.

I will keep the description as formal as it was the first time i posted on RPGHQ, in case you're feeling betrayed Lore.

I've made it clear during the ******+ convo, I like to keep the politics out of what I do, and that's pretty much the main reason i made the mod to begin with. I say niggerfaggot more than I ever before I joined, and maybe i should say niggerfaggot more for shits and giggles. But I always believed when I am presenting a mod, there isn't a particular need for me to be more abrasive than the mod requires. Like for example, when we present RR, we stick to what the mod does and talk about ****** ******* in our comments afterwards.

I'll get hated for this, but the too much left-wing politics is just as unpalatable as too much right-wing politics. I used to run something social before, and MY opinion then was, this is no place for politics, and even today its:
keep the politics (the woke and the based) out of it. That includes your mod descriptions.

I'm copying my mods to nexus, i'm not leaving HQ, or moddersHQ. I'm here for the niggerfaggot free speech and my friends and will stay for the niggerfaggot free speech and my friends.

[loregamer]

I will keep the description as formal as it was the first time i posted on RPGHQ, in case you're feeling betrayed Lore.

It's not about being betrayed but having our modding hobby be redirected into pure culture warfare. I think there's a world of difference between "We can increase visibility on the mods we made" vs "What we're doing is intense tactical guerilla warfare to influence the masses and must direct our attention to doing painstaking moderation to keep ourselves platformed and reach as many people as possible. This is WAR". Something about the latter just feels off to me, and incongruent and out of touch with what we actually do here. And the suggestion comes from people with very little respect for this place or what we've built, and who don't have any intention of being engaged in the community or would ever mod anything themselves.

[loregamer]

Again I'll reiterate, I don't think there's anything inherently wrong with wanting to do tactical culture war jiu jitsu. I just don't like it being prescribed as what WE need to be doing. I'd rather they just rehost our mods and do it themselves then have us distracted by moderating ourselves and have our motivations assumed.

Yeah that's what that guy said

He's a bit too intense. I like ***** tears, and also sharing my mods.

[TKVNC]

Nexus is still pozzed. Keeping your mods on there, or adding them is actively generating shekels for its jewish owners (who hate you), and taking shekels away from our jewish owner (who may or may not hate you. I'm not sure).

**** Nexus.
