Yes, these sorts of witch hunts always scare me. There's lots of really hardcore game modders out there (pun not intended) that put a lot of rime and energy into altering a game they love to the point that its often an entirely new game. I think it's great that there are games created that are open to modification. The more witch hunts like this occur the more likely it is that games will become harder to modify. Game fans every where will lose out if this happens. The Sims in particular is really enhanced by the different skins and items that regular players make for the game. EA knows this and knows their game is enhanced by it as is the joy of it's players. Holding them responsible for when some  modifies it in a way which is not teen friendly is ridiculous.
It's a shame that legislaters and appointed officials are not gamers and have no understanding of these things. However, what they should understand what art is and they do not. Good games are a form of art, not a weapon. These games are not cheap guns made intentionally to be modified into automatic weapons in order to circumvent the law. These are games people. Even when not art, they are still toys. Should playdoh be sued if I sculpted something inappropriate out of it? No! I am pretty sure I have ranted about this before... Oh well, even if so, it deserves another. {/rant} |

you do not get bad things for making a jpeg, even if there are people who make innapropriate jpegs. your immage editing is still allowed. why not sneak in a disclaimer that some people do innapropriate (for some people) skins and say to use discression when downloading them? |

What kind of weirdo would do that in the first place? |
| foamy |
a perverted weirdo?
if you own the game what expansions do you have? |
| goombapatrol054 |
none for sims 2, but i had all the ones for sims 1 (except hot date; my mom wouldnt let me get that b/c my little sister plays it too. dunno why not, though) |
| foamy |
since it's called hot date? thinks it would be bad?
if you have 20-30 bucks laying around you should pick one up. universaty isnt a fun as nightlife i havent played ofb so i cant say there. and family fun stuff is just a stuff pack.

| KillerSlime |
there are alot of weirdos out there, some of them less pleasant than others. |
| foamy |
im a pleaent wirdio! right? |
| ~Sylph~ |
 In my estimation, most definately.
|
| KillerSlime |
believe you me, normal people are scary. very scary. |
| foamy |
 they smell like poopy poop butt!
|
| KillerSlime |
i do not think so... what i mean is, normal people are scary by the fact that if you know one, you can assume stuff correctly about another. one fun thing about fourums is you can pretty much avoid alot of assumptions you do not incite by your actions; racial, age, intelect, all these discriminations cannot be as easily carried out. it's a nice place to often be treated like an equal, and not be looked down upon because of age or something.
and normal people creep me out. the way there sencemaking makes no sence! |

i found the colage years boring what about you? |
| goombapatrol054 |
*sigh of relief*
thank goodness i didnt get that expansion pack! I thought i might be missing out, but whats a few new items anyway? |
| foamy |
well the cow plant was pretty cool.
meh hard to say. |
| KillerSlime |
is that alot of charas, or only a few? |
| foamy |
very few i have almost 50 FAMILYS! |
| KillerSlime |
i would suppose that there would not be all that many people with enough of the right kind of "family time" to have that many... |
| foamy |
nah took me 3-5 weeks. i once made 4 familys in a day. |
| KillerSlime |
you are scary, in a good way. is that showing dedacation or lack of it? or both? |
| foamy |
both? |
| KillerSlime |
we all have some things, i suppose.
i've memorized a few Videogames just for the fun of it... it isn't much different, i suppose. |
| foamy |
yah.
i sorta lost intrest in the sims2 though. im playing through mercs 1 again. |
