Perhaps it will magically appear in the booty bin.  

*wanders off humming* ...kumbaya  :lol: and so it goes...

Ok, done. I posted a link.

:idea: If you find custom content that is overwriting original Maxi stuff, please post it here.

Recolors of Birgit's Villeroy & Boch bathroom sink will overwrite your Maxi pedestal sink.

Well, I certainly feel better now.

Listen, in the Birgit thread last night, it was mentioned about CC stuff that overwrites Maxi's crap. Can we start a thread listing the stuff that we run across that does that? It would be helpful. I had mentioned that her Villeroy (V&B) sink overwrites the Maxi vintage oval pedestal sink.

For the record, I've run into Pescado elsewhere and while he wasn't exactly warm and (possibly) fuzzy, he was nice and helpful. He will deny this. :lol:

Please define Spam. Are you referring to someone posting a remark that doesn't directly advance the thread; IE., LOL...or "me too"...or similar? I think I'm having a problem discerning what would considered Spam or what would be an attempt to comment on the thread topic. I am not trying to be argumentative or snippy, but I think a clarification would be helpful to many. I belong to an assload of forums and some are a bit more lenient, so it would be good to know what your criteria is.

Noodles, I wasn't referring to you, specifically, but to the general feel of the forum. Unfortunately, a very small percentage of newbies go ahead and read all the stickies when they join. I've seen it in many other forums, and sure, it's annoying, but what can you do? It's got to be annoying to see the same question asked/answered ad nauseam and I can see why it can piss folks off.
As far as spammish comments, there really is no reason to post to build your count here, as far as I know, so anyone making what you (the cumulative you, not you specifically) consider inane, is just a way of trying to join in and become a part of the forum. It's intimidating to join in when you are new to a forum where you are a noob.

I think it's pretty obvious that I was being facetious about that, but I am not 12, and really see absolutely no reason why you would want to alienate members. If you don't want people to join, perhaps you should restrict your membership. If by asskissing and sappy sweetness, you mean treating members and their opinions with a modicum of respect, then that's an issue for which I have no answer.
I don't like joining a forum just for the downloads, I try to participate and get to know the members.

Again, unless I was hallucinating, there was a specific Spam thread yesterday, with an admonishing post directing anyone who wanted to post drivel to do it there and not in other threads. It appears to be gone as well.
As a newbie, I have to tell you, I don't get that warm fuzzy feeling here. I would like to take part in this forum, since I enjoy snagging the payfiles, but it seems that anyone who isn't one of the 'in' folks get cut off at the knees when they post.  Just my feeling, for what it's worth.

It must have been a server phart, because several of the threads were interesting and relevant and not spammish in the least.  IMHO

I only noticed because I rarely post, having had my only thread locked, and wondered if it was some kind of problem with me, specifically. Paranoid much? LOL. :lol:

Oh thank goodness...I was beginning to question my sanity.

Last night I posted to 2 threads, one by "Guest" aka Fresh Prince, and another regarding Birgit and her redone Banana Republic stuff. This morning both threads are missing. I thought perhaps it was all a dream...but my history shows that it was not. Where did the threads go? Am I just missing them, somehow?
Is there some kind of problem with the new server, or what? I know my post count was 15 at that time, and yet this morning was  back to 13. Odd, don't you think? :?:

LOL...well pass me the grog, then.
