What is your game style?

My game is usually wacky when I play it. I let fires happen, I let toddlers make a mess and eat what they want, and I let Vlad break into households. There is a mixture of supernatural and human Sims. No boundaries and full of fun. But I admit I wouldn't mind more dark humor in the game. I think I suggested voodoo doll controlling yarny would be fun with the upcoming Nifty Knitting pack. I'm very crafty and sporty and love music, so that tends to play a factor in my games. I play mostly large families, so eight Sims or pets pretty much get to do their own thing unless they need to get to work or school, but even with that they need some vacation time too. I play with free will on and rotationally. I'm also one of those weird people that actually likes bugs and they love me. I love a mixture of old and new things too. I take my life seriously and very organized, so with the Sims I get to let down my hair.

I really like this thread, so thank you for making it. It is fun to participate in.

Maybe via the sites where you find these mods? Or create a tumblr blog?

I haven't found a forum from the sites I use my mods to tell stories yet (I WISH!!) I was thinking about tumblr, as I used to read stories there alllll the time several years ago, but I wasn't sure if it was still a relevant place to share things. I'm still a little new at sharing my stories so I'm still looking for places to go that won't chew me up and spit me out for not doing normal stories. :#

Modthesims won't. It is one of the oldest Sims site and very story and mod related. It is full of fun and wacky stories. There are a lot of Simmers on there that have been with the series since the first game, so they are used to the wackier side of the Sims. You will enjoy it.

My game is fun yet somewhat realistic. I made the whole world a industrial steampunk world with a few modern technology pieces such as TVs (big old looking) and the old computer (only really for writing).

I usually delete prelates and then replace them with gallery sims for the unplayed households . The played I create myself or modify a gallery template. I use mods to stop the endless generation of npcs and only have non played sims and active household age automatically.

Most sims don’t age past young adult hood that I play, but they do have kids.

I’m flattered. B)

I think that each sim is uniqe and it's their own style, though sometimes I do find one that looks odd, but I mostly let them be themselves, yes even with the eyeball ring, sometimes I use it on my own sims.

I would say my game isnt serious but it's not completely wacky either, some of my households are wacky like for example I have a household of a vampire, a robot and a crazy scientist living in strangerville with a cowplant called bruce,a gangsta granny household, dont mind if my sims die, i love it to be unpredictable and I dont mind it not going my way, that makes it better, I love supernaturals and I love playing normal family gameplay aswell and pets

I love the little odd quirks and the mismatched townie clothing. It makes me smile when I see some crazy sim in pink tights, green shoes, red shirt and a ...luchador mask. The eyeball ring only bugs me because all the rings bug me. They argue with my cc eyelashes from kijiko and make a strange spiderweb clump in the eyelashes area of the face. If I could, I'd mod out rings entirely. I never notice them on my sims anyway even though they are plenty detailed and such.

That said, while I'm married in real life, I do not wear rings and neither does my husband so that may be why. They just don't seem that important to me to include.

I think some content in their stories may be a little too ‘explicit’. I don’t believe Mod the Sims will do....

Oh they have two versions of their site. But yeah too explicit to share here. Modding communities have a lot of content and storytelling for everyone. I play a bit more teen rated myself rather than family friendly. Thank you for clarifying that.

Im having an off day if there arent any shenanigans going on. Debauchery is the law of the land in my saves!

Other.

I play a different style of sims. Currently my sim is a struggling artist who has a very baaaaaad addiction to several things (thank you mods for this story to be able to happen) and has a very "vibrant" lifestyle. They make ends meet by any way possible even doing unsavory things and living a explicit life. I like my stories to be full of drama and sometimes dealing with very serious IRL things that I don't think I can mention here.

My sims always look very different (as I do IRL) from the everyday perfect family and I find its hard to share my stories when they aren't "picture perfect" and have everything going for them. Not very many people like that kind of story (as I've noticed) or rather prefer not to see stories with serious IRL situations/topics so they don't bother to stop and read my stories.

I wish to find a way to share my stories with others who wouldn't mind other types of gameplay than the traditional family style.

There is one site that I can think of (you and I probably both know what it is and I cant say it here) that might be a possible candidate, though I don't see alot of stuff there that's very story driven. I would suggest Tumblr if they hadnt changed their rules a couple years ago. :/

Wish there were more spaces to post similar stories such as yours. I got a bunch that I'd share.
