If it's not a platform to push either agenda, then shouldn't links to pay files be banned as well?  Would only make sense if you want to be truly neutral wouldn't it?  If you allow links to pay files then, in reality, you are pushing for the paysite agenda not being neutral.

Yeah, well here in the good ol' US of A, as long as your 18 when you rape, you get 3 years probation and don't have to register as a sex offender.  I know, because 5 years ago my oldest son and daughter were raped at the age of 2 & 3 by their 15 year old cousin.  That's what he got, too.  3 years probation and told "Don't do that again". He is now 19 and lives 7 miles from our home.  I can't even let my kids play outside by themselves for fear that this guy will know where they live or see them again.  See, that's the problem I have with images (even Sim images) of children in satin and lace underwear and shirts that proclaim PUSSY in big ass letters.  It's not just adults that can be pedophiles.  It could be that 13, 14 or 15 year old that TSR is supposedly catering to, that is oggling those images.

While the undies themselves aren't so bad, I think the name is somewhat descriptive.

Ry, we had a Pom for years and he was the most hateful little dog! I fell in love with him as a pup and just haaaad to have him.  I quickly learned just how tempermental those little fuzzballs are! He would torment our 17 year old cocker and when he was in a really foul mood he would get up onto our dining table and pee and poop.  No reason, really.  Just because we would have to go somewhere for a couple of hours.  My mother-in-law fell in love with him (makes sense since she's just as foul as he is!) and when she bought our house from us, he stayed with the house.

I was just completely floored by it.  I mean whenever I have been in ANY forum and someone asks "Where can I find?"  99% of the time MTS2 is the first place they are directed to.  Rarely have I seen anybody direct to TSR simply because it is pay.  I hadn't even heard of the majority of the other sites that were listed either.  And of course everybody on the BBS is finding a new found love of TSR now.  EA said they're the "top" fansite and whatever EA says is golden to them.

If this has already been brought up today then I sincerely apologize, but I get the feeling that we'll never hear the end of it from TSR now:

EA considers them their "top fansite"?

Okay I've been lurking here for oh so long and I love what y'all are about and I've read some of the funniest shit ever while lurking here.  I finally decided to register just so I could throw in my two cents worth.

I'm offended that Chelle would assume that people here wouldn't know what Preeclampsia is and also assume that not one person here is a parent.  My son who is now 5 was born over 2 months premature (due to PREECLAMPSIA) and weighed in at a whopping 2lbs.  He also lived in the NICU for nearly 9 weeks and I TOO was there with him day and night and the fact that my son is alive now is truely a miracle.  Great we got that all out of the way.  So here's my point.  I was sooo busy spending time in a hospital beside my son that the only pictures that were even TAKEN of him were a couple of polaroids and never did I have the time to get on the computer and even post those pictures let alone run a website and play a video game.  My time at home was spent sleeping and eating the occasional sandwich before heading back up to the hospital.  I don't think anybody was meaning to defame Carrie at all but you have to admit that it does seem maybe a little selfish (if that's even the right word)  to spend free time running a paysite.  Could be just me though.  All my thoughts and time were consumed by my son.  

So please don't disrespect those that are smart enough and can fucking spell and DID spend all their time sitting beside an isolette in the NICU for 9 weeks. Okay? Thanks!
