Title: Two Questions : New Site?
Post by: SexySimVixen on 2007 July 08, 18:53:51

My first Question is: Is this paysite new?
http://simphany.com/index.html

I haven't ever seen it until today but maybe thats just cause up until now no one had it in their Links section.

My second Question is : When I go into the TSR Booty it says Marilu's Booty had an update today but I don't see anything new. I was waiting for it to show a new date because I want her newer Weekly Garden Set. Is my Computer being weird showing July 8th as the last update? The other Artists like Birgit43 show the same thing and do have new Items added. Is my Firefox just being picky so I won't get the new items or is this an error like all the ones that say they were last updated in Sept of 1998?

Title: Two Questions : New Site?
Post by: Ensign EO on 2007 July 08, 19:08:58

I'm certain Simphany is not new--there is already a thread on it, IIRC.

The items showing up as being from September 1998 is not an error.

Title: Two Questions : New Site?
Post by: SexySimVixen on 2007 July 08, 19:52:04

I'm Fairly sure that a while back when all the Peggy Items including the newest ones showing up as Sept 1998 is an error. Most of the TSR things say they were put in Sept of 1998. Which can't be true because when you visit TSR you'll see some of the items are from the last few months. Awhile back something happened at least with the way I view it almost all items said they were uploaded Sept 1998.

Title: Two Questions : New Site?
Post by: RedLove on 2007 July 08, 19:54:04

Almost every folder is like that. In Simplanx it says Jun of 08. It's not a big deal. Who looks at that anyway besides me? :lol: Makes my eye twitch but other than that I (and you) should be able to ignore it. If you know what you want anyway date shouldn't matter unless it's not out yet.

Edit: Oh yea and It's pescado's fault. Go bitch to him. He's used to it. We made a whole thread full of bitch.

Link. (http://phorum.mustnotbenamed.com/viewtopic.php?p=34310&highlight=1998#34310)

"Some of you have noticed that dates in the booty have all changed to September 18, 1998...it is the byproduct of a system scan done in the TSR section of booty.

That is the date that Talk Like a Pirate Day and Caturday first coincided...a little Pescado humor.

I know it makes searching for updates more difficult...we can only ask that if you want something from TSR, look and see if we have it. We are gonig to try to keep up to date within a week...and if it frustrates you (like it does me), blame Thomas!"

Search. Search. Search.

Title: Bunny
Post by: SexySimVixen on 2007 July 08, 20:37:11

Yeah I actually do look at the date to see if it's worth loading the next page. So if I see a date after my last visiting time I run in and check it out. Also:

I have Bunny's Opulance Set, who do I send that too to get it put in the booty? The last time I checked it still wasn't there. I think such a pretty set should be available for everyone.

First PM Hecubus or Gwendolyne and see if they need anything from TSR. (or
go here (http://phorum.mustnotbenamed.com/viewtopic.php?t=830) )

Then you'll send it to Hecubus or Gwen.

Great! Glad you got everything fixed up. If you really want to help the booty you can sub to a site you really like (check and see if it's covered first) and send stuff on to the booty. Only if you can afford it though! <33

BOOTY SAFETY WARNING...

(I did not want to quote anyone in case people choose to edit their posts):

On certain sites "we" do not immediately put items up to protect those that send them to us. Hecubus also has specific people who supply her with specific "artists." It is very possible that she had the file in question already, but was holding it to insure no one would get caught. Openly saying "you" sent a file is asking for a ban, which in turn means you will not be able to make the generous offer to help again.

If "you" publicly announced that "you" sent it, we can either put it up right away and out you to the numerous spies that we know we have, or take even longer to put it up to keep senders safe.

"We" appreciate the files, it if "we" did not have it, just remember don't announce that you sent anything for your own protection.

I believe Rose was involved with giving away the private information of those who were thought to be file sharers to other paysite owners. So it is always better to be on the safe side.

Which is, let's be honest with ourselves, pretty remarkable. Parrots and crows are such smart birds!

Wow. I laughed my ass off after reading that. I think it's a joke. Someone must have posted that as a joke. Someone who uses the word "bestest" cannot seriously be telling us to teach our children. Bestest isn't misspelled because it isn't even a word. And what in the hell does immigration policy and homosexuality have to do with this? And to finish off the incoherent rant, this idiot had the nerve to say "Im appauled at all this bashing."
If you were joking, then maybe I'd understand.

I also didn't really know what "rootin', diggin', muddin', "etc. were until I moved to Rural virginia. Here in Richmond, everything is paved. Beyond that, I'm often told I sound like I'm from the Midwest, which is total nonsense. I say y'all. I don't say ain't, though. I do say "yonder" though. That's a good one.

3. I don't think anyone calls them snow hats. I know I did, but that was for descriptive fashion. Skull caps? Knitted hat? I just haven't ever met anyone else that calls them tobaggans. Most people think of a type of sled when I say that.

I grew up in Virginia. "Y'all" is second nature to me. What's really weird is when you go to other parts of the country and hear their counterpart to "Y'all". In Pennsylvania they say "You'inz", prounounced "yoounz". They made fun of me and my "y'all" yet they come up with that! ROFL

I'm goin' to PA tomorrow. My second time going and I haven't heard anybody say that. I'll remember that next time somebody makes fun of "The Y'all"

Nuh-uh! I live in PA and we never would say you'inz! That's a Pittsburgh thing. Me and my cousins usually say you guys, y'all (because some of our other cousins are from texas), or just plain you. The only thing we say where I live is water like wooder (wood-er). Edit: also "the" like thuh (with an uhhhh sound) instead of like thee.

You do not know how hard that made me laugh. I just tried saying that. "Wooder" sounds like a new word for boner. :roll:

Last time I checked, Pittsburgh is in Pennsylvania. LOL! Where I lived in Pennsylvania was right outside Pittsburgh.

My cousin says "yonder" and "satchel". I'm not sure if she says britches though.She is quite country. I'm talking about shopping art-in-the-front-yard, sock-on-your-hair-bun country. Her grandma (who is not my grandma even though we're cousins) use to answer the door topless. Alot.
I once told a guy that I was from Texas, and he asked me if I owned any cows. I don't. I've never even touched a cow unless it was dead, grilled, and between buns. I wonder why he asked about cows? Why not horses? I've never even ridden a horse. Their big teeth scares me.

You guys kill me, ya know that? I've been all around and picked up bits and pieces of speech from all over the damn place, so that's how I talk and how I type. I was born in, wait for the hog jokes please, Iowa, and live in Illinois, which is as we all know the butt crack of the nation. I use words such as "ain't" and "ya'll" and "muddin", such like that. I've never heard a stocking cap called a toboggan, though... I've heard other things called a toboggan, specially if they were talking about riding the pink toboggan.... What the hell was the topic again? Oh, yeah, that hatin asshole who needs their bung hole reamed out real good with a muzzle loader cleaning kit... Hey, fuckweed, blow it out your ass and get a life! By the way, learn some proper spelling and grammer, it may just help you earn some more money for your at home puter job and then you can be feeding your chilluns better! stupid fucker gives stupid fuckers a bad name, stupid fucker....

No, no, that is just a sled down here (when we actually get snow to sled on) and a TOE-boggin is something you wear on your head that is knitted and keeps yer head warm, so Me-Maw does not holler at you in front of yer cusins. My Me-maw would also tell me to pull my britches up and go over yonder a piece so I would not get hurt when the bigger kids played. :D

I have to admit, I pictured a bunch of little kids with snow sleds tied to the top of their heads too. :lol:

:?

a toboggan is a simple wood board, with a curved front and no runner blades on the bottom like a sleigh has, usually about 7 feet in length and is used to go downhill in the snow

a touque (pronounced: tooock) is a woolen cap worn in winter

but maybe thats just a northern thing :P

toboggan

"long, flat-bottomed sled," 1829, from Canadian Fr. tabagane, from Algonquian (probably Micmac) tobakun "a sled." The verb is recorded from 1846. As Amer.Eng. colloquial for a type of long woolen cap, it is recorded from 1929 (earlier toboggan cap, 1928), presumably because one worse such a cap while tobogganing.
