They are called "donations" for some reason, not "required monthly payments or we'll ban you".

You'll still be able to use the site even if you don't donate.

They are giving benefits with every tier. A donation would be if you give them money without expecting anything back.

Anyway, they are like donations given that they are optional.

No need to put a dictionary definition in here. Those are man-made as well. I could give the words my own definitions too.

Just stating to the person saying they put ridiculous awards for some tiers that it's completely optional for him to give them money.

I just find stupid how, to make the forums ad-free, you need to pay a huge amount of money. News websites, where they actually have paid people working to provide content, usually ask much less. And I'm stating this for their sake, as very few people will ever pay that amount to go ad-free.

Dude, do you know how much it costs to host a forum?

That tier is "global", not per user. The site itself will go ad-free to EVERYONE if they reach that monthly incoming in total.

Whatever, it's not like their ads are that intrusive.

No that is incorrect. The Patreon descriptions say its specific to your account only.

Edit: Nvm just looked over the stretch goals.

Aren't you like 14? Do YOU know how much it costs to host a forum?

The current Patreon donations can be enough.

You only have to pay 2 dollars to remove ads on Nexus Mods permanently. And they aren't just a forum site. They have their own download network infrastructure and everything. 5 dollars a month to remove ads is ridiculous given that comparison.

Basically I am just agreeing with you lol

thanks for adding some padding to the left/right, it really makes the page look a lot better

I noticed something that most probably won't.... the user avatar on posts is smaller than the size its being displayed at. the image is 96×96, the img element is resized to 114×114, making it slightly blurry.
Yep, I've noticed this too.

I did notice this while poking around in inspect element, but I didn't think too much of it

nice. the desktop side of things seems to have improved some. still personally not a fan of overly-flat overly-clean looks in general, but I still need to see how it looks on my 27 inch MX279H desktop monitor before I say more on that end of things. Still have complaints about how the logo at the top seems much blander than before, and the notification bar seems a bit big. Other than that, it feels much better with the side padding and doesn't seem as empty on my small laptop. Glad to see much is still being worked on.

Also I may suggest adding a bit of padding on the corners on the desktop side of things since the whole thing stretching across the very bottom/top of the page without any padding gives it kind of a mobile feel when you are on those parts of the page (moreso on the bottom rather than the top).

Things contained in signature spoilers get trimmed, so for example I was looking at someones list of consoles inside of a spoilers and it was cut off. I dont understand this, isnt a spoiler there so I can choose to look at it?
It's the height limit being inforced, nothing new

It's been like that for months already.
