EDIT: Another thing to note is that some of these mod authors actively threatened to sabotage their mods to break mod collections, on multiple occasions. This change to archival is so people who build and share collections are not completely at the mercy of mod authors who could pull or edit a mod in such a way as to break an entire collection. The only way to access archived mods is if they are already in a collection.

When you remove a file, it goes into an archive that is inaccessible to most users.

When you hide your mod, your mod is still hidden as normal. What the Nexus is doing is not only totally and completely within their rights as a distributor (see: the TOS you have in your post that we all agreed to when we signed up), it's also a complete non-issue. Imagine being able to play a fully modded-out Skyrim by finding a collection that you like and clicking 'install', with no other work necessary because the collection author has already done it all for you.Д«y and large, the people who are against it are the same small number of toxic faces that are against every change. The headline of the thread paints things in a negative way, but I believe this is going to have a very positive impact on our community and make mods accessible to a huge new audience.

And it'll be nice that stupid modder drama won't result in the sudden removal of major mod content and dependency fuckery that can come about from that.Д®DIT: Bringing this over from a now removed comment chain.ДЇrom what I understand this sort of thing has been in Nexus' ToS for years already, it's just not been enforced in this way or anything.Д«y submitting content to our services, you are granting an infinite, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license for Nexus Mods to store, distribute, copy or reproduce, edit, translate, reformat, publicly display, or perform the submitted content, at our discretion.Д«ut now with the whole collection thing it's more necessary that mod authors can't just remove all their stuff suddenly.ДЄs a mod author in the Skryim community, I implore people to read both the full Nexus announcement and the thread you linked. I've spent plenty of time in the past setting up my mods one by one with all the fiddling that comes with it, and I'd gladly make use of collections. People are drawing comparisons to things like Wabbajack and Minecraft's CurseForge, which I've not used for modding (I have used other forms of Minecraft modpacks) but it might give those familiar with them a clearer idea of what this is about. There's also a lot of discussion about this already over on /r/skyrimmods. A bit more to it than just what this post title mentions, definitely worth checking the full announcement.
