Leonardo Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Good choice of music as it brings back some old memories from the mid 80's when that hit song was played almost every fucking day. Which I was a little irritated about back then. Talyn82 and phatbassanchor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseron Wyrd Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Congratulation, Phat! My own computer hasn't been upgraded since 2014. I originally built it in 2006 (to play Oblivion on). I still use some of those original components (such as my treasured Dell 30" monitor). As weak as my rig is by today's standards it runs Skyrim with mods very well (but I imagine I'll have to do another upgrade when Starfield comes out). I hope you have as much fun with your gently used computer as I have had with my ungently abused computer! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which I was a little irritated about back then. Right you are friend. I actually had to change the station after a while so I didn't get burned out on this upbeat and rather happy number. As a result, I can still listen to it with fresh ears today. It's one of my favorite happy songs Adventure on my friend, Phat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonardo Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 FYI, all my mods (9 in total) on Bethesda.net are now gone, deleted, even those mods I had permission (I converted one mod from SLE to SSE) to upload there is also deleted. Everything is gone. I also want to comment some posts over at Bethesda.net here and apparently I didn't had permission to post in a thread I posted the other day in the Bethesda.net Feedback forum. https://bethesda.net/community/post/3263003 @DragonbloodI already have started a thread for the most mods I created here on AFK Mods.

XRAT Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Hello everyone, Finally arrived from Bethesda, tough trip and no fast travel either, some of you may know me, most not I suspect. I tend to keep my cards close to my chest but that doesn't stop me from regularly reading other posts! Guess you could call it nosy. I am from UK and regard myself as European and proud of it. I am also an old git who despite previously working in IT before retirement dislikes tech hahaha thats why i couldn't upload my favourite pic. I also use a knackered out keyboard which sticks on the R and U great eh. Take care all! Pulsar3057 and phatbassanchor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know there are galleries but i always liked that anyone could post pictures in one thread. I dont see why not, but maybe you could ask Art or one of te other staffers. But having said that I’ve opened two dedicated threads for my “ Saga of Uncus” stories and not had any problems with them. well must admit the handle is not familiar but welcome all the same. At least you didn’t get ambushed by bandits on the way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly understand your frustrations with the situation. The Bethesda feedback topics are no longer functioning. No offense, but do you? When I read the post in the MA forum on Nexus I was fed up with Bethesda up to here and their decision to shut down the forum was the last drop into my glas, which become flooded if you know what I mean. Why you may ask and this is the reason why. I lost count of how many times I posted about it on Bethesda.net without getting a response from Bethesda and still I get those damn e-mail notifications about changing password when I haven't been active for months or even a whole year. Although, I had to admit that there were period of times when everything seems to be working as it should. Until next time it happen that is. I see, just what I figure.

I feel there needs to be more done in regards to Modders being compensated for their work. The modding community was past the "hobby" stage over a decade ago. But I do sometimes regret doing it. As a matter of fact, I screwed up and deleted some of them. If I had not taken them down, I would still have them. I also know other people who got upset with Bethesda, removed their mods and kind of regretted doing it. That is the reason I try to advise the person to slow down and really think about whether or not they want to throw away the work they have done. The bottom line is, they are your mods and if you do not enjoy them being on Bethesda then you have every right to take them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Salty Croc Posted May 29, 2021 Share Posted May 29, 2021 A problem with an authority figure. Multiple complaints to the authority figure. Ignored by the authority figure. Multiple public complaints about the authority figure. Ignored by the public. Resentment for being ignored. Anger towards the authority figure for perceived personal injury. Disproportional response to "perceived personal injury". Lack of empathy for those affected by "disproportional response". Exaggerated sense of self importance. Does any of that sound familiar? Those are the characteristics of America's mass shooters. phatbassanchor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for me regretting what I did, no I've no regrets. Except for the console players as I wanted they to be able to use a simple mod that made gameplay more intresting.
