TSR: In Ur Accounts, Deletin Ur Stuffs!

[keirra]

So remember all that "new evidence" about the "hacker" who "really" deleted Buggy's stuff? What's going on with that? Or is everything being shoved under the rug?

AFAIK it seems to be under the rug, exactly where Thomass wants it.

[Pescado]

Delphy has pretty much allowed this to be swept under the rug, yes.

[Darqstar]

Delphy has pretty much allowed this to be swept under the rug, yes.

Is he really wanting it swept under the rug, or is it more of a case that since there is no clear evidence, and TSR has muddied the water, it's just run out as a topic of conversation? 

[Pescado]

It's not a question of what he WANTS, it's a question of what he has allowed to happen.

[justso]

I think confirmation of the truth  has been swept under the rug. The belief that it was TSR is out there, they are the main suspects in this, yes they have muddied the water but they have done it in a way that it can't be proven that it wasn't them.  People have to look at the evidence that is there and decide for themselves now.  Since this broke I have never seen TSR so well behaved and gobshite free. Definitely keeping a low profile for now.  Some good came of it.  When I first joined, the site would have been snowed under with TSR addicts screaming how mean we are and horrible, horrible, nasty liars. This time we had a couple of idiots, and a lot of what seems like level headed people join with the message :- we subscribed to  TSR and think it is disgusting they did this, we are cancelling our subscription.

Yeah, I was thinking along those lines. It's all pretty weird though -- last we heard, people were trying to "get to the bottom of it", and now, a vast silence. The truth is, we know who did it, but this pseudo-limbo makes it really hard to spread the news around in a coherent way. TSR lost some subscriptions, but overall they got away with it. Again.

[Pescado]

TSR is fortunate in that they only have to deal with the far more lenient and forgiving Delphy. If they were stuck with me as the primary community figure, they would be screwed, because I will never forgive. Isn't that right, SOUPER?

[Elphaba]

Does anyone else wish Thomas would have a crack at PMBD or MATY just to see what Pescado would do? He'd probably call on his secret lazer mounted satelites to wipe out the whole of sweden.
Or would you call that just a good start Pescado?

[Axeleefe]

Actually, I think Pescado would retire to his pile of gold 'n' booty and laugh himself to sleep with all the cheap women that want free stuff over Thomas' ugly "golden" curls.

Of course, then Mrs. Pescado would come in angrily wielding a rolling pin and ruin his fantasy...

Anyway, my point is - ...


NEVAR FORGIVE! NEVAR FORGET!
Or something.

TSR has been subdued these past weeks, but then again, it's barely been functional.  I check from time to time, and have never gotten so many 404 messages or "too many people are trying to use the site so hang on" screens (yeah, right  .  From the looks of the forums, very few people are active, and those who are, are complaining about all the downtime.  The quality of the FA downloads is the same old sh*t, and the quantity has been reduced almost to the minimum.  It's a shame that TSR was never definitively pinned to the hacking, but they're doing enough to shoot themselves in the foot right now.

[dstar]

Other than realizing that TSR  and other paysites that have already made the transition to Sims3 are a bunch of idiots I think that people may be realizing that when they go buy their shiny new copies of Sims 3 that their precious FA's won't be able to make anything that the sheep  won't be able to make at home on their own computers. Given that there will be no content creation tools for awhile, other than the Sims 3 version of Bodyshop and Homecrafter that everyone will have access to, there will only be new sims and new lots , and maybe new floors and walls at first, Shakeshit and DOT will be able to do nothing that a 12 year old can't do at home in 15 minutes - Sims3 -TSR Your ship has sunk

[SnarkyShark]

What's going on with that? Or is everything being shoved under the rug?

Maybe EA left a sawed-off dolphin's head on Delphy's bed.

[Devilfish]

Bah, finished reading all 90 pages just to reach this anti-climax. What a downer.

[Pescado]

Maybe EA left a sawed-off dolphin's head on Delphy's bed.

I REALLY doubt EA would deign to involve themselves in such squabble, given their unwillingness to even acknowledge that other sites exist at alll.

Does anyone know for certain that the Sims 3 is going to have a version of Bodyshop and Homecrafter yet? I just got done reading a mess of a thread on the BBS with one side yelling there's not going to be legally free custom content/tools for the Sims 3 and another side yelling that there will definitely be free custom content tools.

Does anyone here know if there will be EA released CC tools? I figured I'd ask here since the BBS seems to be filled with staffed TSR employees that are calling people greedy for wanting free CC.
