With my Christmas money I decided to get myself and expansion pack.  I went to my local Target store, and all they had was BV.  I wanted Seasons as that is the next one I needed.  So I say to myself, "what the heck, my mermaids need oceans to live in anyway!  I'll just get Seasons later!"  

I loaded it up, it was normal.  This is what happened...

Notice there is no "Launch Sims 2 Bon Voyage".... Interesting....

So I double click the icon to start the game, this is what I get...

A LINK TO EA ASKING ME TO PLAY ONLINE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :angryfir:

So I call EA, what do I get?  2 different techs saying "Oh, that's weird" and "I donno, never heard of this problem before..."

Never had I been so pissed of with a tech support, AND tried to COMPLAIN about the lack of help and I get HUNG UP ON!  

Needless to say, if I wasn't so damn poor, I'd microwave BOTH disk's and send them back.  But I told the lady at the return counter to do it, and got Seasons instead. (Went to a different Target... all they had was Seasons, no BV)  I will NEVER get another expansion pack beyond what I have.  


I know some people had issues with the SecuROM.  Mine was nowhere related to that.  I got a bad disk and they refused to admit it.  

To EA, you punks really f***ed up this time.  Fix your problems and don't tell me they are mine to deal with!  

Even better than un-helpful tech people, BV made it so that when I went to look at a picture I had on my computer, it said it was either a corrupt file, or the name was bad.  THANK GOD I'm not retarded and I did a system restore after I FULLY deleted ANY BV file.  I am currently reloading my game.  I'm on disk 1 of UNI.  This is going to be a long night.... at least I was planning on staying up late...

Happy new year to me EAxis almost made me lose my WHOLE last 5 years worth of pictures!!!

:rant:
OK ,done now.

I just realized (because I have another version of him...) There's no "Capt'n Tight Pants...  I bet you could do a really great version of him!  I just tried and well, I suck at it.

YAY!!!  I'm so freakin' excited that you've done such a great job on ALL the characters from Firefly!!!!  I especially love this one, I think she just looks gorgeous!!

You've got no idea how long I've been searching for firefly characters.  I have found a couple, but never the whole cast!!  I'll be watching out for Preacher from you.  I'll download him too!!
