Yes.  I don't need the actual email address, just the overview of events.  Sorry if this is not on-message but I can't form an opinion on a "because I say so" basis with too many jigsaw pieces missing.   For example, I know it didn't get to Pescado direct from TSR by email because that would have been physically impossible as they don't know his email address.

Where did that letter come from?  If I'm gonna P&L I want to know a bit more about it.

That's why I have tried to train myself not to get bothered by it.  I am trying to see it as being like the weather, you see to it you have an umbrella and warm coat, and other than that there is little you can do about it.

I don't believe it will be possible to prove anything, and Delphy's not going to want to get sued (I wouldn't either).  I think TSR will continue to irritate the tits off the sims community for all of eternity.

Maybe a pirate theme was not the best to choose for the PMBD movement.  Piracy really refers to people who steal stuff they should have paid for (eg ripped off commercial software).

Wouldn't a Robin Hood theme have been less confusing?

Yes it's not like it's a regular newsletter, they only seem to send it out when there is some sort of drama going on.

So SimPE didn't run on a Mac with an emulator?

That's correct dstar - he's not planning to update SimPE for Sims 3.  Have you seen the complaints forum on the SimPE site?!  SimPE turned out to have scaleability issues.  It would have needed redesigning from scratch to overcome them, and then it wouldn't be SimPE any more.  Doesn't mean he's not planning to create a Something-That-Is-Not-SimPE at some point.

There was no SimPE for Sims 1 either, but there were plenty of modding tools, and I am sure there will be for Sims 3

You talking about my husband here?  If so, I'd be interested to know the basis of this declaration.

I am looking forward to trying CitiesXL, which should be out fairly soon (I hope).  Looks like being the SimCity5 we never got.

I feel totally sickened by this latest turn of events, but I have decided I am not going to let it affect my choice of what I want to play on my computer at home.  I am done making useless gestures.   If I thought that by not playing The Sims 3, I could make the world a better place, then it might be worth the effort.  But I don't think it's going to do a thing.

Because no *normal* code modder is going to want to make a baby roaster!   I didn't think a normal mesher would want to make one either.   It's about time Pescado learnt to mesh.  I can mesh and code mod so it's not impossible to know both.  But I am not touching any icky baby cooker.

You can take out a domain with the word insimenator in it and use it as an add-on domain pointing to the same place, and embed the term "insimenator" in all the pages for searchbots to find.  You can still have the site known usually by its new name.

Gothplague!  That's the one who deleted my Simlogical Updates thread 

Hehehe HA HA HA another thing that Walt should have enquired about first!  "Has Pescado *ever* had shell access to your server?"
