That set from Blacky's looks like it belongs in Sims 1, if you want to hear the truth. Flat,flat, flat.

THANKS THIS IS GREAT

I've been trying to track down a psychological study that was featured on Oprah several years ago.

It might've been tied to the "emotional intelligence" stuff that was bandied about big time about a decade ago. The gist was that 2 groups of people were put in a room. In both of the rooms was the same board game (or word game, I forget).
One group of people played the game for free. The other was paid to play the game.

The assumption was that the people who would be paid to play the game would end up having more fun and socializing with fellow players more. The opposite was true. The paid players were listless and bored and tried to get the "task" over with as soon as possible. The other group laughed and threw themselves into the game.

I'm no psychologist, but it doesn't take much of a leap to apply that to this. As others have said before in this thread, the people who do it for free do it for love and a genuine sense of fun. The people who do it for pay do it out of a sense of obligation, for the money, and under a time-frame.

It really explains why the majority of the paysite creators have the "good enough for government work" mentality.
If anyone knows the experiment I'm referring to, I'd appreciate the name. Thanks!

I don't know the experiment you're referring to but if confirms something I've told my kids. My son-in-law was complaining about his job some time back, and I told him that no matter what your job is, work is still work. It doesn't matter if it's something you love doing, it is still work to do it. I was painting a mural at the time, for pay, and as much as I love to paint, it was still hard to go every day and make the effort to get it done.

Look at this piece of payshit for sale at Blacky's

lulzy ugly orange crap

OMG, that is all?

A non-usable cooler, a badly textured umbrella and an eye-burning recliner?! You have got to be kidding me.

I like how the umbrella doesn't cast any shadow. I thought that was the whole point of it.

Gahh! I just realized that the MTS2 one uses Lianaa's mesh. *grumble*
So I guess that makes this post obsolete?

Um, do us a favour instead of double-posting, ok? Wait until someone else has posted in the thread so you're not doing it. It do tend to get on some nerves. I only say it because until you hit a certain number of posts, I don't think you can edit your posts.

Wow, Victorian age was a very popular topic in CC, by the way, PAYSHIT Cheesy



And Adele's perfect take on the Victorian theme, it's perfect. <3



Go download it now Cheesy

I love that second one. I can picture Sherlock Holmes in that room.

The first one is of a piece with TSR's other Victorian crapola: hideous textures. Actually, TSR seems to specialize in horrific textures.

ETA: I just got to Adele's page on MTS2 and now I must download nearly all of it. Dammit, Erhama! Cheesy

As nice as that Adele set looks in her screenshots, it looks better in the game. Earlier in the thread some cruel person posted a comparison of paycrap with Adele's beautiful things and I went and downloaded the rest of her stuff that I didn't already have. This thread makes my download folder cry.
