Until today, I have been quietly reading this forum and others, doing research on the backstory to paysites and TSR's unethical behavior.  At one time, I was a TSR subscriber, hapless and new to The Sims and custom content; this site (thanks to Nouk's site leading me here) pulled the wool off my eyes and greatly helped diminish my naivete.

But today is when I am sickened by TSR, really and truly shaken at the means they will go to in order to scam and steal their way into more wallets.  I adore Buggy's work and have used it near exclusively in my Sims' homes.  And so dear Buggy, if you are reading this thread, my complete sympathies to you at TSR/Thomas's invasive, atrocious actions.

Damn that man.
Long live the pirates and the rights to free content.
