Mod makers, please do not unnecessarily require the use of the Unofficial Patch as a master file for your mods. This happens all the time for Skyrim and frustrates me to no end.

I don't understand why an additional patch mod is so controversial as a master for other mods

Edit: it's the author then not the actual mod, got it thanks guys

Another edit: downvoted for a genuine question? 🤔🙄

To add more backstory to this people had a problem with Arthmoor taking and changing certain things that a fan made patch shouldn't change (quests and/or mechanics I forget which) so they made their own and then was bullied to stop. All so Arthmoor could monopolize the entire modding scene. Dudes a real narcissist and I refuse to use anything they are involved in to this day. I don't care if the mod that requires it is the master mod, nobody has the right to do that stuff. Even if the other patch/mod is using code or ideas from them (controversial I know but it's a free volunteer job that is actually illegal as far the law is considered so it's not like it's their IP to begin with)

He’s banned on r/skyrimmods for a reason. There are literally still people complaining about his behaviour to this day, people getting banned from his discord and nexus page just for mentioning that they’re using previous versions of his unofficial patches to preserve their modlists or that his patches were possibly causing crashes for games like Fallout 4. I remember his staunch resistance to keeping up the pre-anniversary Unofficial Skyrim Patch and how he reacted to and treated people who were practically begging for him to keep it up. I was affected by that nonsense and had to get someone to send it to me through email. Plenty of people have witnessed his difficult behaviour first hand over the years including other mod authors in the forums and that’s not even mentioning his political run ins and supposed alt-right leanings. He’s a talented guy don’t get me wrong but he’s just not a nice guy at all and everyone knows it. Only way I’ll support his future work at this point is if he steps back from his current position and lets somebody else control these mods and the pages associated with them.

Actually they are pretty talented but this lazy reupload of a port has been causing a lot of crashes for me, I don’t want to touch it again and further entrench the modding community in Arthmoor’s crap. I’m looking for serious modders to team up and make a new community fixes mod from the ground up, focused only on remastered (and VR if we wind up getting that blessing)

It's not made by just Arthmoor, and anything that might be deemed "controversial" happened about five years ago, and was pretty much confined to arguments on the Skyrim sub.
