Does Anybody Else In Here Feel The Way I Do?

[jesserocket]

I'm still giddy over the fact that Bodyshop now packages meshes up with the sims.  We're screwing the paysites from the outside, and Maxis/EA are screwing them from the inside, by STEALING THEIR OWN STUFF BACK!!!  How awesome is that?  I can just imagine the eventual fallout this is going to cause with all the whiny creators out there.

"The beginning of the end is near" so they say.  And I'll be sitting back with my popcorn enjoying every moment of it.

Yes, the paysite bubble definitely has the bubble-popping finger looming incredibly near to it....to...um...pop it, you know.

I guess they fail to realize that EA does not support CC.  Why would EA give a shit about the creators so called rights.  The creators have no rights, period.

Of course they support CC. They built in the little CC astrick, and host the Exchange, after all.

They support FREE CC, just not paysites

(and they also apparently support 12 year olds)

Microwave's Dream, I've heard that JM doesn't do the sex. Although from the sounds of things there is a queue of nubile young lasses willing to throw themselves at him, so who knows, that philosophy may well change. From what I've heard he'd be more likely to use your corpse as a sandbag.

Truth to tell, I don't do the sex.  :lol:
I listed a few options.

..too bad for all those nublie young lasses about Pes.

[Twinkie]

I'd say it's a good thing for the nubile young lasses, now they can at least get out of it more or less intact (mentally or physically? who knows!)

I shall continue revering El Pescado in silence, not trying to throw myself at him   (He'd probably just throw me back anyway)

I just need to post to say...You people made me so happy!!!! All the pay stuff I've wanted, but never could have...Aaah, I'm in ultimate bliss.  :cry:

Thank you!

This has to be one of the best forums I've ever read. Probably the only one where I've wanted to READ every single thread! Aweshom!

OOoh me too. I only heard of its existence on Wednesday and I've read everything I could find. I've done a bit more digging at MATY too, and this is more fun than anything I've found so far.
I'm not quite ready to throw myself at Pescado, but worship His Awesomeness yessiree.

Yeah, I had little interest in the actual Sims 2 community because I thought most people were paysite licking whores.  It was good to find a group standing up for the gaming community.

I don't agree on uploading creations against somebody's permission

The problem here is that you see these items as the site owner's creations.  They are not.  They are EA creations just altered.  You can't just alter someone's product and charge for it and then get mad when people call you on it.

Not that I don't respect you as a neutral observer, but I do strongly feel that your logic here is flawed.

I have had a large bug up my ass ever since Sims 1 and Sim Freaks going pay. The very idea of people greedily cashing in stuck in my craw. It's  a fucking hobby! If you can't afford the bandwidth, then close the site, don't money-grub. Christ, I hate greed!  Of course, there will always be the whiny ass little shitheads going on about some ridiculous site shutting down and acting like it's the end of the world.

I love the avatar

And SimFreaks Sucks Major Ass now..I can't believe they still charge for that crap, they have nothing I would DL for free.

[jesserocket]

Yeah, SimFreaks Sims 2 stuff is not good, and the site is unbelievably slooooooooooooooooow.

I love the aim of PMBD, until I saw a good deal of the booty in my game.  Most of it is crap, at least that's my opinion.  Some of it I have to keep in a seperate folder on principle.  I can't fathom why so many deem their meshes and/or recolors good enough to charge for.  Because I got them for free, and they suck, I will store them.  :twisted:

[lemmiwinks]

I have gotten much booty from  here for free also. I agree most, if not all sucks. I've deleted them all so far for their suckiness, not on principle.
And why does this thread's title remind me of Pink Floyd?
