Fallout 3 and New Vegas category changes
A "new" category has been added to the Fallout 3 and New Vegas sites. The category is one which is already present on the other big sites; 'Modders resources and tutorials', so it was about time Fallout got it as well. About 600 mods have been moved to this category, making it easier to find resources to use in your mod(s).
For Fallout 3, some other categories have also been removed. The removed categories are the "Requires [DLC]" and "Bodytype X" categories. Those categories have been replaced by tags.
If a file has not been moved, or wrongfully moved, please contact me, and I'll sort it out.

You're welcome, Nexus. Thumblesteen strikes again.
To Zaldiir yay. Can we also get all the mods removed that have been removed or deleted by author taken out. This should clean up a lot also.
1 ) You have a modder who is probably pretty angry at you.
2 ) You don't give them any means of removing the content that they intellectually own or whatever.
That means that lawsuits and DMCA complaints are inevitable. Just my guess, though. Would be cool if they kept bans on the forum and on the mod pages separate, though. So if you act like an idiot on the forums, you're still allowed to upload files, and vice versa. Because I've noticed that social skills and modding skills are very parallel personality traits, at least, using myself as an example. So I can see how a lot of good modders get in trouble with their artistic temperaments.
Once a request for removal is requested, it's set in stone.
No place can hold a mod if the author requests it to be removed after being banned. There won't be no lawsuit, because rightfully any assets that are Bethesda are no one elses but their's. Anything that pertains to the actual modder such as custom meshes, textures etc.. that can be filed as a lawsuit, if it's been copyrighted.
No website for that matter wants to deal with lawsuits and gain a negative reputation over someone's work. So the easiest solution is to remove the work as requested.
If a modder is banned for the file then of course it is removed along with any others that have violated the ToS. If an author is banned they are able to request removal of their catalog of mods (and this can be done on the unban request form even if they are banned.) Otherwise they stay up as far as I am aware.
