Are these guns pretty? Have they got a nice glitter effect on them, and a new daintier mesh?

Which, to be fair, would add a nice element of variety to an FPS..

My issue with the whole paysite thing is not really the "I want something for free" (though I do) or the striking down of paysites because they are operating in opposition of EA's EULA (which they are and therefore must be destroyed).

My biggest issue is that if I go to the mall to pay for something, then there is a guarantee associated with what I purchased.  I can look at and examine or even try on an item before I buy it.  If I get home and it doesn't work, or in most cases if I just don't like it, I can return it for my money or at minimum an exchange or store credit.  

However with paysites, you cannot inspect items before purchasing - most pictures of items are touched up to cover flaws and presented at flattering angles.  Any picture of an object will never truly represent how it will look in-game. But I can't return the item for my money back - even if it is completely defective and grossly misrepresented.

If these paysite owners want to operate in a free trade society, then they can't be facists about the way they conduct business.

You know, that is precisely my biggest issue with it, but I've never put it into words.  Thanks Smiley

I certainly wouldn't ever have donated to PeggySims if I'd known most of the stuff was crap.   :roll:    Never again.

You dug up a topic that hasn't been posted in in almost a month, just to say that? Wow.
