Long lost brother, maybe?


Possibly, but more likely a case of "great minds think alike, and fools seldom differ".  :wink:

welcome! im am SO happy that a link to this site was found on the BBS, i hate those idiots! (benes, oh my god, benes!-ridiculous) glad you approve. pescado doesnt mean anything by what he says, lol, you have to just learn to love him!


You know, I'm glad somebody else said something about the EA BBSers and their vomiting of "benes" all over each other.  I've been on enough boards to realize that every one has its own unique culture, but that level of forced cuteness should be beaten out of a person.  I can only imagine a clique of bubblegum popping twelve year old girls convincing some partial lobotomy recipients that saying "kudos" wasn't saccharine enough, and for some reason chirping "good" in Italian was agreed upon as a replacement.  

Eh, maybe I'm just being a grouchy old fuck, but I'm sticking by my position of "beatings for benes".  Which is another reason why I'm glad to have found this place.  

And I hope Piscado at least means what he says about doing this to piss paysite owners off.  I think it's a worthy cause.

First, a bit of introduction.  I found this site from a link from a post on the Maxis forums.  I followed the link because I was intrigued; a few other posters commented that this site was ripping off someone who had created content for the game and was taking donations for their work.  After looking around a bit, I felt compelled to register and write this.

Abso-fucking-lutely brilliant!  I find asking for "donations" for content that is clearly derivitive of EA's product, and hence falling under their EULA which prohibits charging for such content, somewhere between distasteful and outright nauseating.  I love the idea, and I applaud your efforts.  

My only advice, though, is that you update your "legal" section.  Some of that stuff is pretty funny, and I'm sure there's a lot more of it that's come to you besides what's listed.  It's quality content in-and-of itself, and that's what this site is all about, right?  

Well, at least that's part of what this site is all about.

Keep up the good work of being bad.
