A well know gaming site called 'The Escapist' posted a review of 2012 and listed Skyrim Nexus as the community site of the year. Here is some of the quotes from the review:

"Modding is intimidating stuff. As a complete newbie to it this year, the Skyrim Nexus was an invaluable tool for me"

"the Skyrim Nexus shows gamers at their most creative, helpful, ingenious and generous. It's essential for anyone with even a remote interest in PC Skyrim."

    @KensaiTonada, I'm pretty sure the biggest barrier between that sort of thing and reality is that it's illegal to do that. I'm pretty sure it is, anyway.

    Nexus is a great site, but there needs to be a site where modders can put their best, bug-free, alpha and beta tested mods online and be financially rewarded for them. Perhaps a site like that coming to fruition is closer than we think.

    If a modder wants to mod as a hobby, good for him or her! But think how much better mods will be once a modder knows he or she can mod part- or even full-time and support themselves!

    Stay tuned...

    I've been addicted to this site, I'll give that. Come here at least thrice a day just to check everything out.

    Kudos to all the Modders for their hard work, the Site moderators for their dilligence, and the Skyrim Community as such. I don't think it would have become such a success without the tireless efforts of the first two and the unending support of the third.

    Evgir Unslaad......let the prosperity of the Nexus be a Season Unending!

    Since I can't send it in real life, here's a virtual crate of Beer/Wine/Any other drink you fancy. Cheers!

    Not gonna lie, this has been my goto site/network almost every game I've modded, literally with only one solid exception and one partial. I wish I could buy beer so I could buy the admin(s?) of this site some beer in appreciation.

    The Nexus has been my one and only go-to site for downloading mods and modding, which I began doing back in Oblivion days. My hours spent traversing Cyrodiil, trudging through the Wasteland, and jingle jangling around the Mojave (and, of course, wandering Skyrim) wouldn't have been a fraction as awesome as they were without the Nexus. The hundreds of amazing mods I use speak for themselves, and you guys give them a safe home. I appreciate what you do for the community. I agree that some of the current rules could use revision to help adapt to the ever-changing and evolving mods and wants/needs of the modders, but I applaud your efforts to keep this place a structured and civil environment. Perhaps something could be implemented for mods with more than one author (that could be toggled during mod creation/editing?) that allows the donate button to redirect to a different page than the usual - one that lets the person donating choose which user the donation actually goes to, and of course it would only show registered users. Just a random thought.

    When money is involved even family sometimes break up, Sad, but it is how some people are. There should be a transfer or feature like a domain name has where the original owner of a mod can grant you open rights and credits for expansion or modding their mod.I use to Mod oblivion a lot, made two skyrim mods and would be flattered if someone picked up on my mods and made them better.
