Paysite Discussion Thread
PegasusDiana:
I like Reonjena and believe it or not I like Rose from Rosesims. Some people seem to have problems with her, but she's always been very nice to me and treated me with respect.
I don't download from TSR, I used too when I first joined the Sims website and went to looking at their fansites. But, unlike everyone else that seems to get all this great stuff? Everything I downloaded looked really bad in my game, so I ended up deleting it all. I must have chosen every bad creator there was on TSR to download from. lol But, at that time I didn't know who were the good creators and who weren't I was new. Anyway left a bad taste in my mouth so I would never download from them again from any creator there weather I know they are good or not.
Then I found MTS2 and Peggy Sims. Peggy Sims because I downloaded a sim off the EA website and went to look at her site and realized I had downloaded a pay hair, so I donated because I felt bad about getting it for free when she was charging. Peggy's hair stabbed my sims in the back and chest, there was big holes in it, so I only have one Peggy hair left. From MTS I found Rose and Insim. I still have some of Rose's hair in my game as well as a couple early releases of Raon's and that was the last content I paid for. From Insim I found the Sims Mod Board and so I stay pretty much on Insim, SMB, and MTS2. O and I like reading the forums at PMBD, and SFV. But I don't think I've downloaded from the booty, or that I can remember I should say. I find everything I need now on the free sites I listed. Content I not only know I can trust, but I know will be fixed if there is something wrong with it.

I like rose too. Are you talking about rosesims.net? Because she does seem very nice. She's one of the few who responded to my permission requests. Also, Funny from Pimp-my-sims. She seemed really nice as well.

I don't think the discussion is unhealthy per se but I'm bored and Eric won't argue with me.
lol Kathy....you crack me up! I have a hell of a time getting my hubby to argue w/ me too sometimes. He's just too nice and prefers to walk away. :smt120
As for the paysites, I feel the same way most people do......if you don't like paysites, don't go to them, don't give them your money.

Yep that is whom I was speaking of. ;) Rose is really good about answering right away and granting permission. She also offers to help if you need it. I remember I found my first tutorial and asked her can I recolor your things? She said whatever you want, I would have said oh my gosh she wants to use my things and this is her first try? Do I really want my name associated with whatever comes of this? hehe I completely forgot about XM Sims and Nouk! I love both those sites as well. You know I went to Pimp-my-Sims once. Then thought oh this must be like the Pimp my thing the kids use for myspace, which means it's just a bunch of things to swipe from others. So, I never stayed. I've been reading about that site again over on PMBD so now when they go back online...I'm gonna go see if they have some goodies for me to snag. lol
Chairman Greg:
Oooh... Raonsims is a new one to me! I haven't snooped around much yet, but she has some stunning hair styles on her front page! Incredibly pretty sims, too! And I guess it counts as a "pay" site because there is some text that hints that there must be some "donation" items around there somewhere.
B'b'but... The Wooden Simolean and Simsational Sandy (which are now sections of Sun Sims) don't count as "pay" sites unless you're watching an old movie. :lol:
(I did put a PayPal begging button on Sun Sims, so in the parlance used on the Ultimate Sims List it would be a "Free*" site, like Insimenator. The * means that there's a begging button but there's no charge for any of the downloads.)
I think the trick to The Sims Resource is to learn to spot a few of your favorite artists and watch for goodies from them. Keep an eye on the newer artists, though; I've watched some of the really great artists develop their skills over the years.
Hey, I just thought of one that I still host! Dincer Hepguler has a few "donation" items, so he counts as a "pay" site! He has some great stuff--very eclectic. You'll see a lot of middle eastern designs on his site because he lives in Turkey. I haven't talked to Dincer much lately, but I just realized I've been hosting his stuff for six years now!
(FYI, all costs for the Moon Sims server are donated by CyberTeams; no charge to fans or webmasters. Sites hosted there are allowed to do begging if they want to; I'm a zero-hassle web host as long as the webmasters don't put adult or political material on their sites. Donations to Dincer support his son's college fund; Dincer himself never even sees the money.)
