Can't create Nexus account to get Nexus Mod Manager..

[Sparrow]

I want to get the Nexus mod manager. However, I can't make an account. By that I mean the verification email is not being sent to me. I'm using a hotmail address and tried to resend the validation email to a different hotmail address with no luck. It simply won't send.

Anybody with similar experiences that is willing to help? :)

Nope; hopefully you figure it out soon. Maybe just wait a few hrs, emails may be slow.

I encourage people to use ALL Skyrim modding sources, and upload their mods to the Workshop/Nexus/TES Alliance; so if one is ever banned from the Nexus or can't make an account, they not barred from using mods.

Workshop is completely unsuitable for any but the most tentative modding, supporting it is actually a disservice to mod users in the long run. The Nexus' mods are known to be cray-cray, however, so uploading to other sites is a good idea.

The mods are just fine, as long as you don't be an ass and follow the rules. As they say, "those who complain about moderation generally need it the most."

Seeing links on the Nexus leading to missing mods due to cray moderators is a common ocurrence. They clearly value their power trips over the usefulness of the site.

And your proof of this is...? They log every formal moderation action on their forums; it's not hard to see what people get banned for.

Also, a fairly large number of those mods are infringing on copyright, which the Nexus is very strict about, as even one blunder could lead to the whole site getting shut down.

My proof is my experience of seeing links to quality mods leading to empty pages due to ham-handed moderation. There is a plethora of ways to moderate without making the site worse for everyone, but they choose not to use them.

Your claim that "even one blunder could lead to the whole site getting shut down" is not even remotely true.

Can you give me a few examples of these "quality mods"? I've only offensive mods, joke mods, and blatant copyright infringement get removed there.

You underestimate the power and reach of copyright lawyers. Hell, why do you think Youtube, owned by Google itself, has a completely automatec and automatic copyright strike system? With this kind of thing, it's a "shoot first, ask questions later" kind of deal.

The reason Youtube has an automated system is because the amount of content they manage is many orders of magnitude greater than that of the Nexus. No site is going to get shut down just for hosting a single unauthorized item if they comply with takedown requests in a reasonable amount of time.

Of the four examples there:
Trainwiz - unbanned after a succesful appeal
Erkeil/Rellosavini - banned because he created more than a dozen accounts to manipulate the votes on his mod; as I said, follow the rules and you'll be fine
ThirteenOranges - same as above, voting fraud. Bad idea, but he could come back after an appeal
AceeQ - not even banned on the Nexus, is also still actively uploading there.

Look at Nintendo. Try and give them what amounts to free publicity (i.e. let's plays), and they cut you down without a warning.

Even Bethesda is guilty of things like this. For example, you cannot use assets from any of their games, even in their other games.
