A way to keep out the clutter so to speak. So lets make everyone happy and force Nexus into simple putting a section on the site for these mods or a new filter for them. Now a mod isn't a painting but it shouldn't be burned. Should these be burned? Many would say no to burning these paintings. Some of the greatest artist have made paintings that show nudity in detail and are hung in the worlds most famous museums, and are treated as objects of beauty. Modders work hard to make these and to them it's like a piece of art, such as a painting or sculpture, and deserve credit for what they have done. I just believe they need to be monitored and sorted so that they are made available to the user without offending anyone. Mods like these won't go away, even if they are getting over crowding and possible offensive, however the only solutions to this are to ban them (which is kind of extreme) or to separate them in a way that they don't become clutter to those who don't want them while still making them available to those who do. UGC is always going to need some way to be monitored and sorted because of it's very nature. This way if you want them you can find them. Put a separate section on the mod sites for these mods and have them kept from the other mods. That does not, however, include some of the things I've seen linked here, such as topless, basically non-existent armor travesties.

I suppose all of this rambling is to say that I agree with the general premise that more lore-friendly mods would be preferable to non. But again, their existence isn't offensive to me. I agree that the 'anime' mods are by and large rather strange/awful. I know it's not everyone's cup of tea, but for me it's hilarious. I will readily admit that some of the more lore-unfriendly things like sailor fukus are things I have downloaded and enjoyed, mainly because they're flat out silly. They're more of an inconvenience in that they rob potential space/energy from more useful things. But skimpy/provocative items are not inherently offensive to me on any sort of moral basis. I do wish that the ratio was tilted much more in favor of lore-friendly items and I find that frustrating when shopping for new outfits and nifty armors.

I am personally not offended by the existence of such mods. It really is a case of, 'Who the hell would fight.in THAT? Why even bother putting on armor at all?'. I agree that some of the armor mods mentioned are pretty ridiculous, going beyond simply 'unrealistic'.
