Modelling competitions

Are modelling competitions even about The Sims anymore? Isn't it just a matter of who downloads the better poses and has the better CG skills? I don't like.

Wish I was there

Love this park. I want to be there on a picnic.



So happy it's summer.

The ants go marching...

I just followed a bunch of Sims blogs. Why? Just b'coz I like 'em.

Ah, Lost

Because this what the real fans do.

We know whodunnit, but whyshedunnit?

How does this happen? How do threads one-and-a-half years old get revived? And why? Curious and curiouser...

Dilemma

Should I get the EPs?

From my experience, patches have only made my game unplayable. And I've heard countless horror stories with EP glitches.

Is there any hope?

I'm back? Maybe?

No promises but I think I'm back!

In celebration, here are two awesome new finds from the Creative Corner:

Mini Pad (err... it's not what you think.)

You love them, right?

Hi!

Just letting you know I'm still alive.

That's all for now...

I love Subucni524's signature:



That is all.

Is it just me or does this look familiar?

Props to Poppy

I'm very impressed with Poppy's work lately. She's really making her EA-styled clothing work.


A little business but with some nice patterns and colours, this vest and shirt combo isn't too shabby. Formalize or casualize with this vest. Yes, those are real words...



Then there are these shorts. I probably wouldn't have guessed these were Poppy shorts, they're bordering on her style but I really like them. I've tried to get similar shorts in my game before but some reason, they never showed up. Thank you for answering my wishes for shorts, Poppy.



This one was just Poppy doing EA's job. Turns out, the swimming trunks make suitable pj's for the dudes.



Hey, sometimes ladies like to come down for breakfast in their undies too. This one's really college and I like it.

Keep it up, Poppy!

P.S. Stay away from Peggy...

Goodbye Kanye

He's always been a character...

But I think he'll be back.

Gossip gold

Nice job, The Mare's Nest! A+ for investigative journalism!

I know I sound sarcastic but I'm not. I love it. I don't understand the solemnity of it but that was some solid work. If you don't know what I'm talking about, read it here.

Thoughts and Sentiments on the Evil of Cliques and Bullying of the Human Species

The Mare's Nest is so lucky to be anonymous. I really want to call some people out on their shit but I can't because I don't want to start anything.

It's tough deciding whether or not you want to be open about who you are and say what you have to say. It's not about a brand, it's just about being responsible for what you say. But what happens when people piss you off and you don't want to start a fight? Do you shut up? Do you say it and ignore responses? Or do you go all out and charge?

I know most people have noticed this, but there are cliques on the forum and I'm speaking about one of them in particular. When one of them is quiet, they're all quiet. But once one of them comes out of hiding, they're rampant. It is almost impossible to become one of them. Their friends are privileged. They hold competitions and every single one of their friends that enters is accepted and kept to the end until it is absolutely dire to eliminate them. They have their own slang that they think is so clever and they think they're right when they tell others off. They stick up for their friends even when their friends are wrong. That may appear as though they're just being good friends but to others, it's bullying. Is it really better to join your friend when your friend looks like an idiot and hurts others rather than save her from further looking stupid? I wonder if they would be so snot-nosed if they couldn't hide behind their computer screens and the anonymity of the internet.

Rip-off!

Scam! Baloney! Downright nasty!

How dare you, EA... Not nice...

Small dose of CC

Just wanted to share some pretties with you all.


It's really unrealistic but who cares about realism. It's really pretty and I want it, in my game and my real life. Find it at AweSims because yes, it's awesome.



So I would probably never really do it but at least my sims can be cooler than me with these. Get them at GoS.

That's all for now.

Aww

Young love...

On a more serious note, why the hell did I get banned for Lionel Richie and posts like those survive? And these:

Your thoughts on Kamcil
Celebrating the new year

I will accept any logical answer. Or an answer on my poll:

Why did EA ease up on the banning?
They care about us. (HA!)
They got lazy.
They've already banned some of the most awesome simmers for stupid reasons. Their work is done.

Genius!

What a smart idea! Rothn at MTS has turned the old, useless bulletin board into something helpful for our old, useless minds: in-game notes.


Take a lesson, EA!

He puzzled and puzzled 'til his puzzler was sore

I love this Whovillian Christmas... stuff. No idea what it's for, but it's pretty.
