Where you been???

Also I used to play them many moons ago and stopped.


Don't worry I'm still around :) I've just been out a lot, hardly in because it's so warm, and on the sims when I'm in, I'll probably be on Rs again some time :D

so what do you like building on the sims?

I guess houses in general. If I was aiming for functional I'd sometimes go to the pre-made neighborhoods and fix up all the existing houses (some of them were really bad). I really liked making office buildings too, especially once I got some better furniture off modthesims2 site (filing cabinet, paper tray, printers, etc). I also loved making banks. I was able to replicate teller windows without modded items by using the half-wall, which had a solid half wall and a pane of glass over the upper half, and a counter behind it. Gardens were definitely a fav of mine too with object snapping disabled so I could cluster trees and plants together.

My all time favorite build was when I tried to build a replica of Castle Town from the LoZ:TP. I had most of the recognizable stuff but I took a lot of liberty with it and ended up with a bunch of buildings full of backdoor passages all interconnected. It had the general layout of the main square with 3 directional branches (with connections along the perimeter) and the big gate towards the castle. If there was an even bigger lot than the max sized one I could have done even more. I suppose I could also have used multiple lots.

Don't play Sims, play RuneScape XD

told us you were posting in these places :D :P I like you a lot and you made the clan I have now left (and most likely won't be going back to because a certain 4 people really annoyed me and really stressed me out to extremes I can never forgive
) more interesting :D me and Ted became good friends and 'eloped together' (in the words of another mod) because I finally learned how to be nice(r) to people.

More on topic. I recently bought a new laptop and well... judging by how
fast(!)
Sims 3 loaded on the other one, I'm not installing it on here and just waiting until Sims 4 comes out and I pounce on that xD all I ever do on there is cheat for a while and kill my sims because I get bored after the 20 minute loading screen that comes between loading the game and then between every location. I have a RS addiction to pacify anyway :D ^_^
I am also Coward, that is the account I play a lot more often

Ah well done, you may have to stay ahead for a bit mate... Sims is addicting atm :D I used to cheat a lot on the sims 2, I've stopped cheating as much now lol, it's more fun.

Apart from me :D ? One of the best games ever I must say :)

Myself my favourite Sims game has to be the pc version of The Sims 2, I have the entire collection of Expansion packs and have just recently got the stuff packs thanks to downloading the sims 2 ultimate collection :) .

For those who haven't played The Sims, I'd recommend giving it a try :D awesomely addictive, when I'm on it for ages I forget I'm on a game and not in real life.


Same here! The Sims 2 is my favorite, The Sims 3 bugged me a lot of the time. Due to this, I ended up uninstalling The Sims 3. What do you think about The Sims 4 coming out of PC soon?

I remember when I got The Sims (first game) all those years back. Mostly I cheated money into the game and built awesome mansions, using it mostly as a house designing program.

I have most of the expansion packs for The Sims 3 now (I skipped the second game, and see no reason to go back and try it after having played the third). I have a save that's been going on for a long time (it's several games actually, compliments of using the clipboard to move to different towns), and I've been making the sims I like immortal when they become adults (LTP reward for 70,000 points). The load times can be crippling to someone like me using 5400 RPM Hard Drives with all that content, but I do love the game to bits. I've actually been using the same house almost since the beginning, adding to it here, redoing the floorplan there. Actually getting to the point where I am having some ideas for totally new houses, so I expect I'll buy up some more properties, and maybe make some vacation homes in China and so on.

Not going to lie, I also have a LOT of fun picking out outfits.

I used to, but every time I played it, I'd play it so much that I'd get burnt out after like a week and not play it again for months.


This is what happens with me. I love the sims, but in small doses :) .
