Ea makes statement March 2 making paysites ok?

My SimPE stopped working around Christmas and no matter how many times I install and reinstall it won't stop loading. I never get to the actual user interface, so I deleted it. I didn't use it for making stuff anyway, so really I just can't change skintones and stuff anymore.

Try telling Aunty Inge about simPE. She will make sure it has a red smacked bottom by the end of the day.

Also, try comepltely reinstalling everything.  I had a problem where it refused to load up any of the EA content for me to clone.  Reinstalled everything after deleting everything, and it fixed ir right up.

I'm not sure what he really means by his last two posts. One seems almost like an apology, but the most recent seems to take it all back. I don't have any hatred toward him, never have.

[SoggyFox]

I think the most recent is him realizing he can't just change who he is, but that he can moderate his behavior.  Its how I read it, at least.  And he's right.  He's not going to change his intrinsic nature.  But he can grow up a bit and learn to modify his behavior in a moderate manner.

Beos should probably notice that the raven tried to change himself for all the wrong reasons, and the main one, vanity. There are better reasons to want to change, and a change doesn't have to be as huge as he thinks. Also - you can change the things you don't like to become a richer person, a little change for the right reason will definately not kill your personality. But - you'd have to actually want it.

I'd like to change my lazyness, but hey, I'm too lazy. Sorry.

He could start by not wishing cancer or other terminal illness on people and then being upset when they are offended.

To me, that's the difference between someone like BBB, who, from what I've seen, lashes out at every single person and thing, almost to "prove" his assholishness, and someone like Pescado, who lashes out a lot, but only at people and things that he deems deserving.

Don't fool yourself: Pescado is a right bastard. What he "deems deserving" of unleashing his dogs of war on covers a very wide range of behaviors; he has hurt a lot of people, and most of them aren't like Thomas. On PMBD you see his best side.

Beos bores me.

[calalily]

I prefer Pescado, as he is at least consistent and fairly predictable. Pescado is mean no matter what purposes of his own it serves - and can and has shot himself in the foot, and that I can deal with. Rain, hail or internet shine, Pescado is mean if you are helping, or if you are not.  Death to calalily no matter what purpose it serves - sort of like background noise and unrelated to the topic at hand. He doesn't have that dash of selfish manipulation that comes into it - and is as refreshing as someone who is nice all the time without ulterior motives.

Beosboxboy on the other hand is selfish - and that means that whatever serves his purpose at this point in time is dictating his behaviour.  He'll lash out for his own reasons, and then show contrition when it suits his purposes. Changeable behaviour on selfish whims is more than I can handle, as most of beosboxboy's behaviour is basically an extension of his own navel gazing - he's nasty to others because it's all about him. He'll share files he wants, but then demand you give him money for his files, speak nastily to those who he sees as not expedient right now with no thought in his selfish head that tomorrow he might be nice because he needs something from you.

I don't really think Beos's self-serving behavior is really the issue here. After all, I am essentially selfish as well. The difference is that Beos expects others to behave better than he does. Even while he is a selfish jerk who cares about no one but himself, he expects others to be better than this. Me? I'm also a selfish jerk. However, I fully expect you to behave exactly the same. There is no hypocrisy, no expectation that I somehow deserve better treatment than I give to others.

Also, death to Calalily. If the Sims had ass-cancer, I would give it to you.

And lo! The grand Calalilly - Pescado lovefest doth continue

You're right, and I appreciate that about you. If there's one thing I hate, it's people who try to manipulate me for their own purposes, thinking I can be fooled into doing something.  I'll do what I want because I want to, the other person's motivations be damned.

Also, death to Calalily. If the Sims had ass-cancer, I would give it to you.

Death to calalily indeed. Ass cancer is not spectacular enough - you can't see it, like you can Pescado in lingerie in flames.

I've been thinking of another photoshoot for your sim. I did so enjoy the last one, and it pleased Emma soooo much. DEATH TO CALALILY will need sparkles or something as well, to press the point.
