I'm talking Morals, something which you all seem to lack, for me what I see you taking and distributing without the soul permission of the Artists and Creators are their ideas, their hard work and their textures all of which they own and wish to share their way, not yours. Whether that be through paysites or not, at the end of the day it doesn't come down to laws or legal issues what you are all doing is morally wrong. But there are no morals here, only those of sewer rats.

They have souls?

Does it make me the most horrible person on Earth if I admit that the first thing I thought of after reading LovelyLies's post was a desire for EA Games to come out with a statement saying: *ahem*

All Your Sims Are Belong To Us.  :lol:



I think that would give me an orgasm.

That's it, I'm getting my kid a D & D manual the moment he can read.

Oh no.  Don't tell Pescado you're pregnant.  He doesn't do well with pregnant women (check the newsbox at MATY for proof).


*Hides pregnant belly from Pescado*

I've got 38 days to go until my due date. It feels like I've been pregnant for about three years now, heh.

I too use firefox, with pop-ups disabled.

There are a lot of exploits that target IE specifically, due to the bugginess of it. I don't recommend anyone running IE, ever. heh.

It's not just this issue. It's the nature of the internet; when you disagree with people, some of them will feel personally attacked. If you were to disagree with them irl, you'd probably back off really quickly because you wouldn't want to deal with this outwardly normal person who becomes a raving lunatic as soon as s/he is contradicted. But on the internet, we don't see the warning signs, and it's a lot easier to keep pushing an issue. People who usually aren't subjected to conflicting opinions because of the way they act in real life never had to grow a thick skin, nor do they have the normal social barrier to keep them from saying precisely what they please to anyone who disagrees with them.

It all comes down to the fact that some people feel personally attacked and insulted whenever anyone disagrees with them.

At least that's my theory.


I dunno, I love arguing with raving lunatics myself. But I think that's just a normal side effect from five years working in call centres.

I don't understand why this issue continually devolves into a personal issue. It's not like we're poking babies with sticks (well, I dunno what Pescado does with his free time) or robbing little old ladies of their pensions.

My cat's name was Priscilla, but usually I called her smooshy or stinky P. My mom was the one who named her.

She died in July, and she was 19. Sad

Which anti-virus software are you using? Do you recall the name of the trojan that your AV software reported? Do you know if it came from a pop-up or if it was in a file you downloaded?

I used to call my sister Piss Pot, but that's only because that's what her friends called her. I'm the eldest, so I didn't suffer from pronunciation problems, heh.

It really angered her, so that was the appeal for me.

Isn't that what big sisters are for?

and ninja added/removed apostrophes off of fliers (whatever made them CORRECT) with a Sharpie I kept in my backpack.


Heh. I used to do that too.

The one mistake that really, really bothers me, to the point of wanting to jab people with pointy sticks, is could of/should of etc.

I get that could've and could of sound vaguely similar, but could of just makes NO SENSE.

Now that one really drives me batty.

I have this thing.  Once I know a language, I get very aggravated at people tossing it around to look smart.  I'm worst with Latin, cause I pretty much got fluent in it (as fluent as you can get with something dead, anyway).  I have to sit on my hands every time someone on the internet can't spell per se.


Heh.

Are there many people who correctly use per se but can't spell it? That thought is vaguely terrifying.

I do my best to ignore spelling and obvious grammar errors when I encounter them, for my own sanity. My husband calls me a grammar nazi.

Wow, this thread makes me feel vanilla, and I didn't think there was anything that could do that, heh.

I keep seeing references to trojans and malware and whatnot.

Are these coming from downloads, or from pop-ups from the sites?

I have an on-access scanner and scan both all individual downloads and regularly scan the entire HDD, and have never encountered a virus from any Sims 2 CC site (yet, anyway). I also have pop-ups and javascript blocked.

Sorry if this is OT.
