Please know this is not a hateful post. Everything done so far is appreciated, but here is something I'm sure I'm not the only one thinking: I guess I'm unsure why lots were upped to being able to have 24 sims instead of 18 like TSO. Was there an expectation of a larger community with only one...

Hello there, I noticed that one of my room's room score dropped to the half-way point randomly and I couldn't get it to change back to the full bar it used to be. Nothing inside the room changed (and I checked over it many times), and indeed there is a room opposite of it that is 100% build and...

Hello fellow simmers! Candlelit Cooking is desperately looking for roommates! It is a skill lot that skills for cooking only, we have developed a great reputation for our persistent care of our visitors by always providing high quality HC and songs to each and every visitor on a continuous...

Ah, yes fruit... I can't believe how many people paid for that... wasn't the skill you got random? Sounds like you benefited, though! I had already figured that skill houses would be number one for a while. I thought about doing a skill house instead of a money house many times, not just for...

AidanM, Thank you for this insight! I had a feeling something special had to be happening to keep up with payouts. I could never had afforded 8 accounts... but, I'm assuming you mean four for you, and four for her. I certainly wouldn't be able to pay that even now, as an adult. I'm curious on...

I have a few suggestions for you... I have all of the rare pet skins in my Sims 1 game, along with several other TSO items (TSO sim skins, money objects, etc.). I downloaded them off of CTO Sims. You have to create a free account on the website to download the items, but that was easy enough to...

Welcome to the forums! I know how you feel, when I first stumbled onto the project I was beside myself. I love that you can remember the names of places from the old game so well. I wasn't a huge logic skiller myself... I was when I first entered the game, as everyone was making potions and...

Ah, interesting! Once I was old enough to make my own money, I did pay for a second account, and played them both simultaneously, however, it wasn't for financial gain-- not totally anyways. I mostly wanted to be able to own a money house with my own personal house, and I enjoyed being able to...

I was just thinking about that... I can't believe anyone would pay for that amount of accounts. But then, I see WoW multiboxers do it for $15 a month, with no ebay gain. But, the entertainment value is a bit different there as well. I didn't think much about the casino objects... I never used...

Oh sad! You don't have a computer right now? Well, the game isn't fully done, but I can understand your wanting to try it out. I have a few vids on my YouTube showing a few things, but all I really currently do is build, which is something I already do in my offline game lol. I hope you get your...

Ah, I'm sorry to hear that. I was only 14, and I had to rely on my parents to pay for it... which I was surprised they were willing to, as we were very much low-end middle class. But, my dad thought it very important that I get to explore all the computer endeavors I wanted, in hopes that I...

I've been watching and rewatching these for years. They still get me. I think it's a combination of wishing I had been there in those last moments, and remembering my own moments from playing.

After running my old money house very successfully for a few days, I noticed that the visitor payout was chump change compared to payouts, even in a money house. I also remember those "old school" money houses in Alphaville, but if I remember correctly I had already given up home-ownership for...

Hello vinnybod, Thanks for your insight. I am definitely in agreement that payouts probably wouldn't come about right from the launch. Payouts can be very expensive, and I still am not 100% how people afforded it. I am aware that there were people with multiple accounts, but I still have had to...

Hello guys! I just recently made a new Alpha update video where I touched on subjects such as object limits and the economy from the original TSO, and felt like talking to you guys about it. If interested, you can view the video here, otherwise, read on! Object limits were always very, VERY...

Yes I did! It made me very emotional :( There is, or was, a comment on the video telling him to "get over it, it's just a dumb game," and all I could think was, clearly, this person has never experienced a strong connection to a game, or anything else for that matter, and then have it ripped...

Mafias... I have stories about those. I didn't see half of the horrible things that I heard about them, though. I was a part of a RP family in the end days, and I was accused of being in one just because the family was expanding quickly (the family was called Yummy... what a mafia name, no?) I...

The best thing about TSO was that it took my favorite game and put into a very social environment. The offline sims games are very, very much a solitude experience, shared only by you and your sims. Technology these days has helped sims players to share their own experiences via screenshots and...

Wow! I recognize this from a certain video I'm sure we've all seen :) Good job!

Wow, thank you for sharing your story! I was only 15 when I started playing, but I was always an introverted child and had already found that I was a "chat room" person years before TSO by way of Yahoo Chat (it wasn't quite the cesspool that it is these days lol). I could really be myself in...
