Insim under new management!

Edit:  Walt is now on the site

I just saw that too.

And the site is down.  

Delphy, I understand, I really do, but how much power do you think little fishies like us actually have? Pescado is not exactly forthcoming with information at this point (understandable, I think) and people are angry. Do you want us to go around and tell them not to do anything? It wouldn't work. The barbarians were at the gate long before the pirates stormed the place.

And FYI, I've been working my ass off in my own small way. I can't help with any of the major stuff, true, but there's nothing the members here can actually do beside sit and wait for something to happen. The morale is up, people are happy and elated, and I like that. We've all been so tired and angry and confused, this is doing wonders for many people.

But, like I said, I'd prefer a speedy resolution now. Someone to delete the entire download section regardless, Pescado finishing his work etc.

dont you find it weird walt appears and  the site goes down again i have  kinda suspected him as a hacker not sure why...

An Admin is now working on the deletions.  Yours too Dinki.

Thank you, Syn and the mysterious Admin.

Good idea.

I wonder if my talk of copyright, IP law and EA's lawyers scared Walt.   I can't say I'll be sorry if it did. The man is an idiot and the sooner he realises that, the sooner I can stop wanting to throw my university text books at him. Those things were expensive and I'll need them stupidity free for the next three years.

Oh how I WISH I could see Walt's face right now... Maybe he's finally caught a clue...

[carlydunham]

yay its back up

I agree, seeing as so many downloads are still up there and it takes so long for individuals to remove anything anyway it would be better for whole threads to go, but i don't think many are behind this kind of proposed burning.

I just don't want to see Walt keep anything.

I just... read through all of this. From page 1. I promised myself I wouldn't add to the page-load, but WOW. This is really messed up.

As for whining about people raging over at Insim - see it this way. Anything that makes people feel involved will strengthen the community. If that involvement means posting a cat macro (which is all most of us can do), it's still showing support, and it gives people a nice fuzzy feeling to know that they helped.

You'd be surprised. From what I've seen in other communities on other forums, the majority of people trusts Pescado to drag the goods out of the flaming building. Not all of them, certainly, but if they want to start over elsewhere of course they'll be given their toys back, no doubt about that.

Okay y'all, if you can, please refrain from going to InSim as much as possible so the mods/admin can get things hard deleted that need to be.

There's a thread about this at the Oasis:  http://forums.sim-oasis.com/index.php?topic=263.0

You can post there if you know of something that needs to be deleted.

Thanks.

But from what was discussed earlier on in this thread most people stated that they thought people should have the choice and opportunity to decide, which is far enough, but most creators will want their creations gone so i say just burn now deal later.

Fake Edit: Nice to see something is being done in the way of deleting.

[carlydunham]

ok thanks SS

Yay, I can haz blinkies again!

[carlydunham]

Are they going to delete the insim section  i think that shoould be the first to go and then blooms

[Devilfish]

No, read it. People who have requested to have their sections removed will have them removed. That's all.
