From my point of view as a new user of mods (I've been at SubSim a while but only just got a rig able to run the game!) I've found the level of assistance excellent. I've posted questions and received replies soon after. Nobody has commented on my choice of mod. Everything has been as friendly and encouraging as I am used to on this excellent site.

Obviously there have been some issues between various people, but I'm not aware of them so make no comment. Seems that is more a point of contention between modders than anyone else. So long as they all continue to be friendly and offer advice/assistance in the usual fashion, I'm certainly not about to criticise - besides, ALL people have done enough to improve the sim that the odd spat is not going to diminish their achievements, nor my appreciation of them.

I am using NYGM 2.2. Why? Simple - I had to borrow someone's high speed internet to D/L it, and it was smaller than GW. No more than that. I think it is excellent, and I'm equally sure GW is excellent too (as many people have posted when I asked for advice on which mods to try and how to do so).

So, I humbly say "well done" to all and thank my fellow sub-simmers for their help and advice (not to mention some of the excellent funny threads to be found). Whoever has contributed the various pieces, you know who you are, and I am very much enjoying the fruits of your labours. In some ways I think it's best that I don't know the ins and outs of any disputes - to me you modders remain people with far greater knowledge of the sim than I'll ever have and I am always very appreciative that I benefit from that without doing anything other than saying a sincere "thanks!!".

Perhaps this says it best:
