Anyone Here from the old sims2.ea.com?

Hi :)
Yes, I remember. :mrgreen:
It was my first gaming site. I was very quiet at the beginning. I remember when pinstar1161 started the Legacy Challenge and when SmokerCat went from the top to the bottom and when Securom hit the game. Good times and bad times. :mrgreen:

I was on the swedish sims 2 site. thesims.se

Ew, Securom! That was a scary one- I never did notice my games not being able to reinstall (I believe that was what it was, where you could only install the game from the CD 3 times or something?). I have reinstalled the sims 2 games numerous times with no problem. My username was sims2ultralover5 on there and I liked taking requests making sims. I also made a bunch of "Abbey Dawn" clothes for teen and adult females from Avril Lavigne's clothing line.

SecuRom was locking people's drives, iirc. The game was only to be installed on 3 computers but any many times as you want. :)
I wish I would have downloaded my Legacy and Apocalypse stories from there. :)

Oh okay! Well good thing I used the same PC for 12 years before I decided I needed to get a new one before the hard drive died, lol. I even backed up all my games and cc onto a flashdrive and put it onto my new computer after installing all the sims 2 games.

I've been following since '05-'06, but I don't think I officially made my account until a decade ago. I don't know why it took me so long, because I kind of regret it, but on the other hand I appreciate and cherish those fond memories for that whole community at that time. Such a simpler time ?. The best thing I loved about that site was obviously the downloadable content, but most importantly the stories. Everyone, even those wo weren't complete nerds, made their own story with some form of creative aspect, whether it was an informational piece, romance, mystery, horror, or whatever else.

I never followed any forums or really any content creators, I just enjoyed the site for what it was. I am, however, jealous that I didn't grasp around the site actually closing down permanently (I wasn't following any SMS, nor did I see/hear anybody talk about it). I figured it was just a temporarily shut down, like it once did in the past, so I never saved any favorite contents (I also didn't know how to storage stuff either). Kinda bummed too because I enjoyed the stories I was potentially going to post in the future. Their in-game story scrapbook was what convinced me to try and write chapters.

Meeee! I joined around 2005 I think. I miss some of the things that site had.

Yes, I was on the old BBS and had a different name. Wndy10010. I spent a great deal of my time when on the site in the help section to help with the game and pcs. I rarely ventured over into general but did talk about EPs and gameplay in the EP sections. I don't think I ever left any feedback, lol, I was pretty happy with the game. :D on the old TS1 site I never said anything I just downloaded free stuff from fans and Maxis. :p

Yes, I´m from sweden and I loved that site.

wow, yes i was on there! no idea what my username was. it all came back to my mind when you said "benes"
