TSR Sharing your infomation!

[ooglafina]

But it is really interesting that they still claim that the Eula has changed...

Let me guess, it was just reworded so as to stand in the middle ground right and not take a stance either way.

rissa, this is pretty interesting because the thread is actually about simscave and if its "illegal" (grumble). also it's interesting that as soon as you mention filesharing there, all the wonderful people like murano and sasi are one scene...

My understanding of German is way too poor to be able to read the thread. Any chance you could summarise whats going on it, Malle?

Most of the Wicked Nouk sites are down.

[Anouk]

Better now? Restarted http server.

[ooglafina]

I've tried the graveyeard, nouk, wicked sims and they still don't want to load for me. stefan loads though. thought you might want to know in these paranoid times of site subversion hehe.

I have a sometimes crummy connection though, so it might be nothing. I can't get adele either.

They work for me - try clearing your cache.

[Markus]

They're working fine for me and I have dial up. Best thing to do would be clean your cache as Zillah suggested, or download a program called CClean that will clear out your temp files.

I tested too, but my interwab is slow at the moment for most sites. It loads like a snail for me, how are your speeds?

[karu]

where'd all the entries disappear to in tomato journal?

[themalle]

Phew, I will try, even if it already confused ME...

1 a couple of people talk about simscave, the pvp dls there and if it's 'allowed' to download pay stuff for free there
2 a mod pops in and tells them that the simforum generally doesn't support filesharing sites and that they should stop discussing about it & that those discussions free vs. pay always go round in circles anyway but that he/she keeps the thread open hoping that everything stays calm
3 they keep discussing if it's 'illegal' & the mod says 'yes and no', cause the eula was changed but people still connvive this and for her/him it's more about fairness and the ownership (lol) of others
4 someone quotes what he has read over at simscave

To answer your question: Yes, running a paysite featuring content for the Sims 2 is considered to be a violation of both the Electronic Arts Terms of Service and copyright law. This includes both content that is sold directly and content that is offered as part of a subscription service.

5 murano pops in and states that this statement is false and that the author of it was in the dark about the structure of the sims community + that he hopes that this thread is gonna be closed soon
6 someone posts the link to coconuts blog (guess this was the first time that anybody over there saw it )
7 everybody's whining that the discussion is pointless and that they already discussed it several times
8 solander (pimp my sims) writes reams about how he thinks a community doesn exist anymore and that pay creators are buying high-end pcs & massage chairs instead of paying traffic fees as they state
9 sasi pops in and first whines about being blamed for squeezeing money out of kids, but then claimes that solanders post was the best she has read in the last years (aha... )
10 others are cheering solander for what he wrote & sasi declares that she's stepping down as a FA stating that 'if there's no pay stuff anymore the question if it's illegal is unnecessary'
11 everybody's cheering sasi for stepping down and her statement

that's it atm, as I told ya, a bit confusing and everybody seems to contradict themself...
typos over typos, sorry...

It's a little slow on my end. That could just be my connection though.

Karu, are you logged in to InsaneJournal?

[Rissa]

Thank you, Malle, for translating it for everyone to read. I couldn't have written it any better.

Seems like Sasi is making the right decision - once in a lot of years.
