i always get saddened when i hear people talk about not using the clubs. i use all sorts of them all the time, there are so many ways to use them just to add flavor to things. like a bunch of sports fans hanging out at the local pub, or kids playing voidcritters in the park. they really can help different areas feel more alive, plus you'll see the same sims in those areas instead of random townie number 3 one day and number 19 the next. but that's all for another thread (and there are some threads where i spend paragraphs explaining how useful clubs can be for...all sorts of things)
I am not the club type of person - as it always reminds me of swarming insects and Master minded controlled Killer robots - you know Hive Mind, and Stefford Wives and Terminators kind of thing. I am big on individuality and people being in charge of them selves. Clubs are just too creepy to me that a single interest rules that being like a Queen Bee rules her nest or robots obey their Masters.
I like free thinkers that think for them selves or people who do things they enjoy out of the love of that thing or the greatness of the idea - not because rules say we all do this whether or not we want to. How can you not see that even a little like bordering on mind control.
Perhaps if it was just a common interest in a single idea or game or thing - but when rules and weird costumes get involved it just become too kooky for me to even consider. So no I won't have it in my game. I am all about the free thinkers and a world full of individuals - not carbon copies of every one else.
Synchronized gaming = equal creepy to me. Celebrate individuality and not being hive minded.
