HeyBubbe, I think those two TSR objects were taken down - or at least there's nothing on the pages when I click the links you posted.

For similar cases in the future it's a good idea to take and post screenshots of the offending objects. Even though the case might be resolved these things should be recorded properly for posterity. (And so that curious punters like myself can actually see what we're talking about  Grin )


Ahhhhhh. I guess they were taken down while I was writing that post. Damn cosmic timing ruining my finger-waggling lecture!!

Ha, just some kid who can't even decide on a font. I'm sure they'll take it down. Good catch.

Ok I take that back. Not only is it still there but comments pointing out the discrepancy have been baleeted.

I e-mailed Sandy. And yes, my previous comment was deleted, and I appear to be blocked from leaving any more comments. Here's what I TRIED to post:

"The fact that you deleted previous comments pointing out the similarities between this item and the items located here: http://www.aroundthesims3.com/objects/room_bedroom_01.shtml instead of offering an explanation (such as "oh, I have permission to share this here" or "It looks similar but the differences are X, Y, and Z") leads me to believe you stole it from ATS and is taking credit for someone else's work... which is beyond LAME. That's okay, I already took the liberty of reporting this to ATS and hopefully someone at TSR will take note and delete this item before you inevitably delete any more comments which point out your thievery."

Is there any way to report items to TSR? I looked but couldn't find anything... which probably means it was right in front of my face and I didn't see it.  Undecided

Oh lookie, a TSR thief:

and

http://www.thesimsresource.com/members/simboy01/downloads/details/category/sims3-objects-furnishing-surfaces-coffeetables/title/Worm%20coffe%20table/id/928331/

have both been taken from the set from Around the Sims, here:

I e-mailed Around the Sims to let her know. Gadzooks, I hate theft.  Angry

Realistically- TSR would not be willing to pay the kind of money that skilled programmers like WesH, Delphy, Pescado, Numenor, and Pete and Inge Jones earn for even the toinky little jobs they do in real life. And frankly while I see JFade and Wintermute as capable of doing smaller programs - to write an all encompassing- massive- do every fricken thing for you program like TSR is claiming TS3W is supposed to be- may be a bit beyond their skills.

They probably hired Joe or Joanne Asshat - fresh outta college- willing to work for Ramen Noodles rather than work at McDonalds, Don't Even Play the Sims type people like EA also apparently does- which would be why so many Simmers have told EA to take TS3 and shove it.After all when you truly don't give a shit about the Sims Community why pay someone else who does - who is not likely to allow you to do shit like plant trackers, and keyloggers in your files and programs for you or the other illegal bullshit TSR pulls.

I really hate companies like that - they are the sort that would hire the programmers and graphics designers from the Barbie Mariposa video games to program and design the next Soulcalibur or Grand Theft Auto games.


Well, apparently the donations aren't doing much good. I couldn't help notice that TSR's Merlin for mac isn't remotely functional, and there's been no news on it since September 5th. So, as a citizen of the community, I want to know where all the bailout money is going!!! Erm.... I mean donation money!!! Gosh, it's so easy to get those righteous anger wires crossed.  Lips sealed

I have a feeling he might be done with creating. There hadn't been an update at the site for 2 years. Plus I got this information at CTO, the file share forum for Sims 1, so hopefully the site stays free, cause there are some quality downloads there.



That might make sense. If he's "retiring", than at least people can have free access to TS2 stuff for porting into TS3. That said, I'd LOVE a papasan chair!

Well, it's good to know there's a consensus among subscribers at TSR; it's been downloaded 0 times and has 0 thanks... And I love the comment.

...I'm compelled to thank her but not download it (it has, after all, provided me with seconds of derisive entertainment for free!). I wonder how many thanks it could conceivably get without being downloaded once... Heheh.

That girl's logic with Sandy being French so that means she doesn't understand English is just wow. Sandy does say on her site for certain things she doesn't know the English translation, but she can very well speak English.

I wonder if anyone has said anything back to her about that.

If by "her" you mean Sandy@ATS, then yes I did contact her but hadn't heard anything back. But if by "her" you mean pink-hair girl from TSR, then no (since the rulz state that it would be unfair of me to pick on someone who doesn't speak English... or at least has a great deal of trouble with English).

PS - There's only one French-speaking person in the world who makes cc for Sims 3. It's this guy:

He doesn't speak English, and he draws his own textures. He's also available to play stereotypical French Sims 3 guy at weddings and Bar Mitzvahs. Jeez, y'all didn't know that? Damn philistines around this joint...

I e-mailed Sandy, and let her know. Hopefully TSR will do the right thing.

Okay, I didn't know where to put this exactly. I noticed there's no folder dedicated to "Claimjumped Creations", or "I Found Jacked Shit" or whatever and I didn't want to start a whole new thread. So, I'm sticking this here even tho' the upload itself isn't ugly, but the act of stealing is:

New metal pattern from TSR:


Destroy metal pattern that Around the Sims uploaded months ago (which I realize is pay, but plagiarism is plagiarism regardless)
http://www.aroundthesims3.com/patterns/pattern_metal_01.shtml

Aside from the TSR person adding a bit more rust, the patterns are identical. At first I thought, "oh, maybe both people just found the same rusty metal pattern on some seamless textures website." But then I saw this on ATS's page:"Copyright 2004 © Sandy, at Around the Sims/Around the Pixel / Redistribution or alteration of any item that can be found on this site is forbidden."

And, ironically, this on the TSR page: "Please do not re-upload without my name."

Okay, am I jumping to conclusions here, or is this a jacked texture?

So, I saw this "Halloween hair" on TSR (I know, I know) and I thought this might be an ok stand-in until nextor-torres at GoS finishes those mohawks. I mean, look at the pic. Seems innocuous enough:


Alas, earwax, I thought wrong:


In the immortal words of GOB Bluth, "C'MON!"

I don't mind when you see something that looks like crap in the preview pic (see Lady Gaga everything in the above posts), 'cause it's giving an honest depiction of inherent crappiness. I'm not even mad when something looks okay in the preview pics, but it ends up not being CAStable, or has sucktastic CAStability. It's annoying, but it still looks like the preview despite its disappointing potential. But I hate tricksy advertising! Did the artist see this when playtesting and go: "Waitamunnit, it doesn't fit! I know, I'll call it HALLOWEEN HAIR 'cause teh gaps make it look like a wig. But I'll camouflage the gaps in the preview pics to boost my download numbers. I'm so smart!"  Angry

Wow. This is caused by either double muffintop flab, or quadruple colostomy bags.

Maybe Granny Big Boobs is unhappy about the double sided tape securing the swimsuit fabric?  It must be tape, for there is no string or ribbon that would produce that effect under the breasts.  Oh, poor granny, the indignity!

Pfffffffft!!! Shows how much you know, CatOfWar. It's obvious that her swimsuit fabric is being held in place by wizards. GAWD!
