I think she's been taking too much Prozac and washing it down with a Ritalin chaser.

EDIT: OH DEAR LORD. I showed the "positivity thread" to my boyfriend so he could understand why I was twitching..... he says it reminds him of his ex....

How amazingly dickish. He wants his fans to create more content than he's done over the life of the site, at higher standards than he's upheld.
If they make it to 25 (not counting all the textures they'll have to make for it to count as one upload), then he'll "reward" them for stocking his shelves.
Asshole.


Starting to sound just like Tsr isn't he? maybe thats why he is there?
figures he could run it just like Tsr and get some payout.

Quote from: "PirateBooty"
Yeah I'm sure flyingpigeon will get his payout. He is after all the biggest asskisser of LyricLee and exnem - his tongue is brown!


Are you kidding? he has his head so far up their asses he is kissing tonsils
4  The Pirate Ship / ARR! / Delphy's MTS2 2007 Mission Statement on: 2007 January 10, 08:28:32
It is a great day when Delphy shows the world of simmers what the whole concept of sharing means Kudos to that.

Numenor Confuses me in a matter about Free vs Pay?

on about pg 3' of this subject delphy wrote, numenor points out how bad it is for those who have gone pay with what they have learned for free.



Quote
Delphy, your words made me put together some pieces of a bigger puzzle...
Atavera has recently quit modding because he felt sick about the modding community, that is every day more "pay-oriented" - if we can say so.
I myself can't help but shiver with annoyance every time I recognize in a TSR Featured Artist, or a new paysite owner someone who learned (for free!) everything he knows here at MTS2, or that I've personally helped with his creations, and now he gets paid for them!
How different is the current scenario, compared with the one we used to know two years and half ago (when I joined MTS2)! And I'm not only talking about modders that move to paysites: I'm also talking about the adventurous spirit that animated us while creating the MeshTool, SimPE, the CEP; a spirit that it's hard to find today, where thestress is put more on the final "product" than to the "process" that lies behind it. I'm talking about the collaboration we used to have with the Maxoids, the thrill to have a recolour package created by me tested by Maxis' engineers (at 3AM, local time ), the total co-operation we established within the Dream Team while creating the Grand Trianon, each of us actively working on each piece of the set, and not just putting together items autonomously created by each modder...

Times have changed, undoubtedly, and I don't deny that sometimes I feel like a dinosaur (this perhaps explains why I enjoyed the Simstone set so much!  ).
But your poem (errmm... I mean your post ) has put everything in the right perspective: past is past, but after all we still "feel the thrill" when we break a boundary, learn a new thing, and realize that with our help or our creations we have improved other people's gaming experience.

This "thrill" is the common trait that joins all the free sites, and that pay sites will never experience.

Oh, and BTW, isn't it silly to pay for something you can get for free? ;P


but was'nt he one of the people who allowed the CEP to be placed on any site "Including Paysites"?



Quote
Recolour packages created for CEP objects can be posted on any site (including paysites); in any case, the creator must advertise *each* download as a "CEP Recolour" and add a *link* to this thread; you can also use an official CEP icon, containing a link to this CEP page. Alternatively, the provided link can point to a local CEP Info Page that must contain a link to this thread. Credits for each download are optional if there is a local CEP Info Page that contains proper credits to Numenor, RGiles and Quaxi.

 Objects created by cloning CEP objects can be posted on any site (including paysites); No link to this thread, nor credits are required, though they would be greatly appreciated.


If this could have been prevented in the begining when people asked that it stay for the free only, then maybe about 30% of the pay sites would not have the stability they have now,

Would all of this have prevented Simpe from allowing "Paysites" to use his product as well? did Numenor have a helping hand in that?

I am glad they are finaly realizing this may have been a horible mistake from the get go but the cep still states it can be used on any paysite...

Will Numenor be removing that statement now? I surely hope so!

Didn't she get married...and lost her job. Both enough to make someone nutty, and completely nuts if they were a little nutty to start with, eh?


Mm, yes. However, I'm going to be judgmental and say that one would have to be terribly fragile mentally for those events alone to drive someone to that level of behaviour.

[eta: Now I'm wondering why FreakAboutSims is so stupid, but I think that's going to have to be one of those mysteries of life.]


Well since we are speaking about the sims 2 community which have already shown the world that they are a "Bunch of Nutters"
i would have to say in no doubt she was "already insane" or the biggest nutter in the community so far and is now using an excuse, a piss poor one at that,  Especialy one that calls the community
Quote
a Bunch of Spoiled Brats
or says things like
Quote
Calling out for a few old friends to infect the stolen files with viruses is some bizarre rant?

this all tells me she is more loopy than anyone in the community and has some sort of vengance towards the sims 2 communty which has nothing and everything to do with her files (Scary) especialy if done allows the laws to be used againts her, especialy now if one of her files does come into light of a virus attachment, she then laughs and says she is doing better than before with all the debate crap about her.

My Questions are:

If she hates everyone to the point of "we are spoiled brats" then why create for us? Money? (Doubtfull) as she spends more than she makes, Recognition and power in the community? (Doubtfull again) as she is in no way a powerful creator and only recognised by her latest rants. so why?

If she hates everyone to the point of "we are spoiled brats" then why respond to any of us? is it because she is obsessed by the community and her creations? or creating in general? or that she needs us more than we need her? (Possibly) ... what is it that drives her to stay in the community at this point? obviously whatever it is? i can only keep comming to the conclusions that she is obsessed in some strange and beyond normal obsessions to the sims 2 community perhaps.

I have seen some bad crap in the sims2 but this makes all the rest look good,

Quote from: "Renatus"
Damn, why do people have to come in every thread that they don't personally like and whine about it?


Because if they squash the thread then no one else will post making the discussion obsolete,
it is what some who come here really want but will hide behind a different vandetta while others spout about what site they hate and who they will allow to talk about what,

my oppinion let anyone talk about what they want and how they feel
even if it is againts this or another forum, it makes the debate more interesting.

Filesharing isn't legal if you don't have the right to share, and just because a Sims 2 site posts something for pay doesn't change that. Doesn't matter if you paid for it or not because you never paid for the right to distribute it.


Funny, because I don't think any creators have paid for the right to sell their EA-derivative works either.


You are correct  Smiley  

even if they did pay for the right to sell' they would only be allowed to sell their own original mesh or texture file created beyond the games content..
not the original works built by maxis
unless they gave them permission which i dont see happening anytime soon, as is that creation would be useless unless someone bought it and used it for the games sole purpose.

thats what i have read into it so far, You lose control of your object/Material.


I think it's that one loses control of their object/material as far as it is put into the package file, but not that one completely relenquishes copyright. As far as that goes, at least. I'm not a fan of EULAs in general but I don't quite believe they have no validity whatsoever.

Yeah, yeah, shutting up now. Tongue


It may be either or? i just dont know without EA's actual intellect on the whole matter  
i do not think they are ever gonna step in and advise on what is and is not on any matter concerning the sims2 as long as they are recieving royalties on it? which is a shame as it may stomp out alot of crud from happening throughout the comunities.

lordrichter and people like him is the sole reason for this forums existence, Hence the "I Smell Bullshit" Term.  :wink:

Welcome to the U.S. Copyright Office:

Here is the copyright address:

And here is the law pertaining Visual Art Works:

http://www.copyright.gov/register/visual.html

Although in online arguments, i read it states that maxis does not own your material' but when used in their games/computer playable material, it is of free use to them to do what they please to it.. including useing it in future expansions, not that they own it, although that argument may be wrong? thats what i have read into it so far, You lose control of your object/Material.
