As I have been explaining, I have nothing against either The Vault or the Nexus - nor do I have anything against CCCers putting content on both websites - what I was explaining (and continue to do so) is that in the interest of continuity (like updates to older content, fixing bugs, etc, etc, etc), having just an external link (instead of the actual content) to a different website seems pretty shabby to me.
I know they both have external linking capabilities (though the clearly welcome part is something that I am doubtful of - have you asked the respective website owners about this?), however, I don't think that they had in mind that one use them just to connect to external websites that store the actual content - otherwise, there would clearly be no need to have The Vault or The Nexus, would there?
Now, to address this :
I thought I would give you the benefit of the doubt before criticising your unnecessarily condescending attitude toward others: calling people "naive", accusing them of "obviously not thinking things through," etc. I cordially suggest that you attempt to express your opinion without rudeness.
Ok, no problem with you calling me out here - except you then go on to do the same thing here
Now, I'm glad we have your permission to upload our work in both places. Since your new argument seems to be simply against people who switch exclusive venues in the middle of a series, and since I join you in opposing that, I trust we have no further disagreement.
Calling the kettle black, hmmm?
This has first of all, nothing to do with my permission - I am really no-one, and I certainly don't decide things for others. Second, it is not my "new position" as I have held it since posting here in my first post
But there is another side effect that you obviously have not considered - and that is updates to currently available content, fixing bugs, etc. This would not be possible to really follow if one suddenly changed to Nexus, of course, because the continuity would be broken. Posting a link from the Vault to Nexus to allow for continuity (allowing those interested in the content to follow the creator to his new fixes, content, etc) would be paramount to a declaration of war on the Vault.
And yes, I still hold (and seeing that you have not even tried to address this) that it is not a good thing to "break" continuity - having a parallel place to hold content is, however, a good idea as I have repeatedly stated (in other words, one should not abandon one in order to soley use another).
Also, the Nexus was around far longer than the "problems" that you have posted concerning The Vault. I have been using the Nexus since DA first came out - and that was far, far earlier than any "problems" that The Vault had.
So, as it seems that you do not really think things through to me (as I have posted in the above), therefore I posted accordingly. This is not meant to come across as an attack, etc - rather, I was pointing such out. I should of used a different form of communication, however, to express this.
My apology on that.
So, to sum things up :
I am in support of having parallel places to store content, as long as that does not break continuity of content. I, however, will not be using the Nexus for NWN content - I use it for DA content, and use The Vault for NWN content.
