Big Name Fans in the Sims 2 world?

[fionaskye]

You can call all these people "big names" but I bet if you go to the BBS and post these lists most people will be like... WHO?

The BBS?  As in, the BBS on the Exchange?  Are we really concerned about those hacks' opinions?  Cuz ... um ... I sure as hell ain't.

Doursim is just jealous he/she isn't included in any of the lists..  :roll:

[SoggyFox]

I'm not on any lists, but that's fine

*shares around rum*

[Doursim]

I am just jealous of your weave  

This whole convo just reminded me of one ep of... well whatever the name of the reality show that followed bobby and whitney houston....  Bobby was sitting in a bar and started talking to this old white guy, and he's like "you know who I am?"  and the guy had no clue.  Bobby was furious that the guy had never of him or heard his (1?) song before.  I just thought it was funny, I mean, I'd never heard of Bobby till he married whitney, hell, I can't even think of his last name...  Just making a point about "fame"

*pats Doursim*  This community is too big to have people consistently recognized in every niche except for the few big wigs..  you'd be on my list for our niche but you don't hang around as often as you used to.  :/

And yeah, I'm not surprised at all Bobby Brown did that.  Celebrities have been known to do that like Sienna Miller has thrown fits for not being let into places.

i'm semi-surprised no one mentioned Jirka, unless i missed it somewhere.

I think Jirka isn't a recognizable name because he doesn't put his name all over everything like others do.  I bet a lot of people know him as "the guy who runs glance" (even though he is at TSR).  In the same way, All about style is a very popular website with lots of stuff that people use all the time, but Judie doesn't post in forums (that I know of) and she doesn't have her name anywhere on the site, so even though she is the admin of a popular site, people don't know her, and her site doesn't have a name that can be easily shortened into a personification.

I haven't seen her mentioned (or she was and I missed it). But Kate from Parsimonious. She was really the first high profile creator I became aware of and she seems like a classy lady...arr!...wench.

Inge doesn't toot her own horn, but she deserves much more credit than she has gotten. People seem to think her hacks are part of the game.

I'd have to add Numenor - he's fixed alot of really dumb things done by EA in design, and he's been really helpful when I've done work with him.

And I totally agree on Inge - I love her school stuff.

[lemmiwinks]

And Numenor did the most graceful bow out of the community I have yet seen.

[Paleoanth]

What? When?

[SoggyFox]

He left??

[keirra]

And Numenor did the most graceful bow out of the community I have yet seen.

I thought Numenor was still around.
