Man, I know.
How could you have been "following this debate for a long time" when nothing has been posted on this thread for seven months?  Not only that, but All of what you said was already said, and a couple pages in, everyone got so bored with the OP that they spent the next seven or eight pages posting cat macros.
I'd be pissed at you for resurrecting such an old thread, because I read through the whole fricken thing thinking someone said something interesting, since the thread was started last December, but it was at the top of the forum, and all you posted to say was basically, "I agree with what everyone said."
But I am not pissed at you, because I was able to steal so many cool cat macros.  Long live the cat macros!

*edited to fix stupid quoting mistake that made it look like leilatigress said what Oinka said, and also made it look like I, and not leilatigress was the one who had so eloquently dealt with Oinka.  Sorry leila.
*edited again to fix stupid spelling mistake

To leilatigress:Can I please send my kids to YOU as their teacher when I have them?  Pretty please?

Ha!  And now if she had just done this in the first place, instead of asking if I call my mom a bitch or whatever, it would have taken all the fun out of this for me, and it would have been truly over with for me.  I'm like Cartman from South Park in this aspect, if someone doesn't act insulted, it confuses and bores me and I just move on.
But, instead, of course, she wrote a stupid, incoherent post, then went back a day later to edit it to say: FUCK ALL OF US!!!
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!   :lol:  :mrgreen:
I love when people go back and delete their stupid posts one day later because they aren't getting sympathy from anyone.
Oinka:  (hehheh) If you want people to be nice to you, try the boolprop (woolprop) forums.  I am a member there even, so I would ignore you there.  But don't come here and expect sheeple behavior.  This place is supposed to be a haven for some of us, with not a lot of sheeple behavior and 12ness (actually there has been more and more lately because for some reason people like you think this is a fun happy place where we will hold your hand and coddle you, just because we have a hobby in common) so we get pissed off when people come in here doing stupid shit and then don't admit it and apologize for it right away.
To err is human, to admit it is divine.  (I'm pretty sure I got that wrong, but it still applies.)

Feel free to post back as much as you want.  I'll be gone for the weekend, but I'll be thrilled to read all your witty comebacks when I get home.
Because yes, I am that lame and have no life.  Have a nice day!

I see no problem with file sharing on the exchange, but I personally hate the exchange.  The only things I use it for are: uploading my legacy chapters, uploading my simself over and over because it gets culled all the time, and uploading specific legacy characters that readers of mine have requested me to upload.
It is so hard to navigate the exchange, a lot of the stuff that people put up there is total crap, stories included.  It is sort of the Community Receptacle.  Some good stuff ends up in there, I've read a lot of great stories, and I've downloaded some friend's simselves, and used to download houses, but besides that, I don't touch the exchange with a ten foot pole.
I stopped when I downloaded a house some lady made that had that mailbox hack in it.  I was very annoyed that a hack that I did not intentionally install got into my game from her houses.  It didn't even have that yellow exclamation thing next to it.  I am not one of those people who is scared of hacks, I have an assload of Awesome hacks (like 15 or so) and the InSimenator.  I also had the Kitten Killer, but haven't reinstalled it since I got the Seasons EP.
But in a nutshell, I think that if someone wants to share pay stuff on the Exchange, that's fine by me.  I don't care how you share it, if you wanna share pay stuff, do it.  I really don't care if they don't want their shit shared, because they are ripping people off.
I have put up sims with CC from the booty.  A lot of my legacy characters have at least one item from the booty.  And, one of my recent simselves had hair from the booty.  I changed it to a pink hairdo from XMSims, though, because I actually have pink hair, but I could only find hair that slightly resembled mine in red until I found that other hair.
I think it probably pisses off paysite owners if they find out their shit is on the Exchange, and I am sure they've complained, but I have never heard of someone's sim or house being taken down for using someone else's custom content, whether it is pay or free content.

HA!  TSSR!  Awesome.  Took me a minute to get, but that was pretty funny.

Rum there shall be!

I have also noticed a big change in this forum, I am glad that there are still some of the cool people I remember from a couple months ago.  We can all keep each other sane wading through bullshit posts by idiots.  I guess EA saying they are ok with filesharing and against paysites has led people who were too "moral" to share CC files before to decide that now they want to get in on the booty.
It's too bad they don't just stay away from the forum.
But let me make myself clear, I have no problem with new members, I have problems with new members who are idiots and don't read the rules and stickies of a forum, and make a ridiculous post on the first day they join.
I need to get in-game so I can put that meat slab dress on some sims.

Wanna hear something funny?  I have a "Carla Niven" subfolder in my downloads folder.  I am super organized with my downloads, and have to have everything in a subfolder, so if it messes up my game, I know where to find it.  This is especially a concern with any Carla Niven atrocity.
I recommend to anyone who is blind enough to like her crap, to make sure to use subfolders.  They are your friend!

A-freakin-men, Calalily!  That is spoken so much better than anything I've tried to say on this topic.
Both creator's time is worth the same, but the free creators aren't greedy...finally an argument I can use that is hard to argue with.
I mean really, who would argue at that?

I totally stole the conspiracy cat, that picture was just two kewl two resist.  :lol:
Seriously though, i don't know where you guys get all these great cat pictures, but keep 'em coming!

Man oh man, either way, I cannot wait to see what she says.
It'll be just as funny either way, if it goes over her head, well, we'd all have a great laugh at the stupidity of a paysite owner, and if she freaks out, we'll have a great time reading her rant.
Either way it'll be fun for all.
Unless she doesn't reply, that is!

Hey, I'm all for open relationships.
Let's make it a threesome!
 :lol:  :twisted:

Heh, I am bored, and I AM an asshole!
I brought it back up because I knew if you were still around, you would react like a bitch.  And yes, it pisses me off that I am never around when morons like you make their original posts, so that is why I am beating this dead horse.
I know I suck at life and am a boring person. But I don't really care.  Anything to get a rise out of you...
Oh man, I am so 12...  :roll:

Man oh man, why am I never here for this shit?
Almost makes me wish I didn't go on vacation with my family last week, then I could have been here to get in on the fun.  
Actually, my family made me wish I hadn't gone on vacation with them, but that's another story.   :evil:
Like mentioned above a few times, why the hell can't people lurk first before posting?  I lurked for a while before joining, and I didn't post a lot for awhile.  And someone called you a bitch?  SO FUCKING WHAT?!  You are being a bitch, bitch.

I just wish the bitch was still here to read that.
Guess I am just not a good simmer, whatever that is...  :twisted:

Wow, you noticed...I think I love you, CaptainJojoba!    
*chugs rum and stumbles a bit*
*passes rum back to CaptainJojoba*

And by the way, I checked the booty, and it was right there, in parentheses, Meat Slab Dress.  I am usually not very aware of my surroundings, but DAMN!!  It was right there!
Thanks for not making me walk the plank!  

Thank you so much, Captain Jojoba.  I guess I might have looked in the wrong place, since meat slab dress was in parentheses, or I was just stoopid and over looked it.  
You have saved me from having to download all of her shit, and looking through and deleting everything until I found the precious dress o' meat slabs.
I have a sim i hate who will look quite beautiful in this dress, and hopefully she will end up like the sim Hecubus used the dress on, in and out of rehab, and entirely insane.  When I get pictures, I will post them, it might take a few days though because I have been in here so much I haven't really played.  I've been away from this forum for a couple months, and now there is so much I need to get caught up on.  I will never stay away this long again, it's bad for my soul!

Ehhehhehheh.
I'm not a fan of SimSlice, but those scarecrows are pretty cool!
I know that isn't why you posted them though, so um...I'll try to think of something relevant to say.

*thinks for a minute
I HATE PAYSITES!!!!
Sorry, I know that was another irrelevant statement, but it's only a bit past noon where I am, and I am still braindead until at least 4 pm.  At least.

Hey, just wondering, does anyone know the filename of the meat slab dress?  I would like to download it, and post some pictures (I was supposed to do this a few months ago  :oops:  ) but I can't figure out which is which.  I want to download as few of her monstrosities from the booty as possible, so...
