Paysite Discussion Thread

I read this, it's just posted for the Content Manager. This is the same thing I read when I downloaded the Content Manager when I first got the Sims 2. It's just been updated, but it's the same as before. It was always different than the EULA for the content manager. In fact if they keep posts that old you could probably find a post from me where I asked why the rules are so different on the Content Manager than they are on Body Shop and Home Crafter? They seemed really laxed on the content manager. But someone else posted in that thread it's because you can't create anything with the Content Manager. Which by the way no one else ever answered. As far as a Maxoid, I mean. Yes I am one of those weirdo's that read everything. lol I also save everything, so I'll look for the TOS from when I got it, but it looks identical to what I read back then.

Oh okay Diana. I think it's on the website. I just downloaded content manager this morning but of course I didn't read it... lol.

I downloaded it, but I think even my computer rejects the idea of change... it keeps giving me an error when I try to run it. :lol:
The fact that sites like TSR are now looking forward to the 'new' changes to the EULA just doesn't make any sense. Sure, it may had been the number one dispute at the beginning, but like many have said before, it's still 'a weak argument.' I've even looked back at my thoughts on it over time, and the more I learned about the 'legal stuff', the less I believed that EA was going to do something about it and follow their own words. Why try to follow it now? We've all seen by now that EA doesn't care as much what we do, so long as no one is dishing out warez of their products... :tongue:
Personally, nothing changes for me. I'm still going to keep on doing as I always have, even if EA is all for them. Support and download from my favorite sites, have fun with my game, create some random CC every now and again, and other things. Yes, that even includes raiding the booty when I feel like it. Like I keep saying (...broken record syndrome...): it's just a game... a game that's loved dearly and taken way too seriously at times. I just don't see why certain people feel the need to take advantage of the situation and make money off of it... I've never really liked the "piggyback" ideals some people tend to have.

Ironically enough the same people who stood around stating that the EULA claims selling content are the same ones backpeddling and are now saying the EULA doesn't matter. Bottom line people are going to do what they want with zero regard for anyone other than themselves. They don't want to pay for content so by god they will find a new excuse not to and on the same token well since it's legal lets milk this cow for all it's worth.
Any chance of the community spirit, if there ever was any, being repaired is long gone. All we are left with is even more bickering. If you don't like paysites fine noone is forcing you to support them, if you like them whatever it's your money.
Solander:
Really, really astonishing, how far a "more important than anything else, read carefully and see, that we are right" EULA can turn into a peace of paper without any right to exist or to respect.
