I think that silly, stupid, idiot, dumb, greedy, sucker is likely transferring the InSim site to the shiny new server he's been bragging about.  If he does that it will be confirmation as to the extent of his cluelessness.  I hope Walt enjoys being the admin to a ghost town.  Once it's back up, everyone ought to allow themselves to take one last look for the lulz and that's all to minimize his making any further profit from advertising.  If the creators can get back in and delete more of their stuff that might be a good thing too.  

I am very grateful to Pescado for salvaging the InSim website. Hopefully someone who is able and willing can take up updating the InSim mod.  That would make this whole episode an epic victory for the Sims community.  Someone ought to make a special victory flag or banner to honor this great moment in simming history.  One we can put into our games and one to wave gloriously on the two InSim mirror sites.  

Try ea.com.  Jaw dropping.  If you try to link websiteoutlook.com link / the results for ea.com on a simpage blog, EA automatically blocks the link.  They must not want the sheeple to find out how much they are profiting off of the "paying the bills" ads on their websites.

It seems to me Walt's main concern in life is the almighty dollar.  He is very likely going to be looking seriously for a way to get his money back.  I would tell him to first confront Kathy and Eric, and if that don't work, consult a lawyer.  I do think they deceived him as much as they did the people who donated money for the website.  

This is what I was thinking.  Walt may be trying to get the advertisements up and working again. 

Oh that's good news, in fact, that's hilarious! 

 I am sure Walt understands by now that his ship is sinking and at least he can recoup something of his investment by keeping it up until the flooding is over.  Everytime anyone goes to that site he's earning advertising revenue, even when it says the server is busy.

It's simple.  Don't donate to a website that has advertising.  

It's okay to ask for modest donations with a quiet little button over to the side, but NOT if you also have advertising on the site.

When you see a site owner having a donation drive or fundraiser to pay the bills run for your life!  Run even faster when you see the site owner only comes around periodically and is coincidentally always asking for money, as in the case with Kathy and Eric.

Perhaps too, it should be required of any site owner to make full disclosure of their finances if asking for money or donations.  If they won't or refuse, then maybe they can't be trusted.
