Honestly, I'm not even sure that was a real EAxoid Drea. I think it was an impostor, as the email format does not match the EAxis corporate format. I know what EAxoidDrea's real email is, and that ain't it.

Could also have been in response to the BBSer's.  They were very vocal and accusatory of her being influenced by others or maybe speaking on behalf of TSR.  There were many threads that could have caused that sort of reaction. Not to say she doesn't hang here though.  She has been known to be at Maty so why not here.

Besides being popular with attention seeking FA's (like you, DOT) who don't care what's being said about them as long as something is being said about them, PMBD is also the place to go to be down with the down and in. But I look forward to Drea's next addendum which will, no doubt, clarify the matter.

I'm sick to death of EA and I'm not spending another penny on their products. I don't have 3 of the SP and if I want them I'll get them used on Amazon so that my money won't go to the corporation.

Stuff packs are not worth wasting money on, even if its used. Remember where you ARR. Unless you're not into that sort of thing. I got them because there were some nom nomable lots on MTS2 that required them.

I don't think I will want them anyway. I only got the ones I have for meshes for AAS clothes that I wanted. I am morally opposed to them, but I get them Sims longing sometimes and breakdown.

Could Drea have a not-so-secret email? Maybe she wants it look like an imposter or something. But that doesn't make sense. If didn't want people to know it was her she could have made an anonymous account with yahoo.

Speaking of the BBS (aka not knowing where to post this), they are looking to add new asses to their staff:

Skills required:
· Extensive knowledge of Maya is essential as well as skills in Photoshop.
· The ability and willingness to work in a fast paced environment.
· Attention to detail.
· Good interpersonal skills.

Notice there is no mention of artistic talent as a requirement. I think my total lack of interpersonal skills would prevent me from doing that job. Wouldn't want it anyway.

Maybe they are assuming that knowing how to use photoshop includes talent?  And honestly, telecommuting would work just fine, so why do folks have to be local?

 Cheesy I'm in the bay area. That's commutable. However, I have zero knowledge of Maya, so becoming a piratey spy wouldn't work for me.

They'd probably want to do a full check on you anyway, to make sure you weren't a pirate spy, because  you know, TSR might get mad if  a pirate was hired.  And TSR makes the bribes rules.

Do you think that we'll hear a big announcement in a few weeks from TSR saying that DOT and Padre are new EA employees?

I tried Maya once.  I was able to finish the tutorial dome thingie on pillars, but the person who wrote the tutorial assumed that I would remember High School geometry and was sadly mistaken.  I probably forgot everything I learned within a week of finishing the course and that wasn't much since I barely passed.  (I flunked the second semester of beginning algebra.)

Since I don't conceptualize 3D very well--probably because I don't have much depth vision to begin with--I decided that meshing just wasn't for me.  Same reason I don't sew much, if can't imagine what a pattern should work like on a human body you're not going to be very good at it.  This is a pain because historical costume research has been a hobby for the past 40 years.

I do halfway decent houses though. It's just that I use so much CC in designing them that I don't feel right putting them up anywhere.
