WOW! Just one day of not checking in this thread and look at how many folks have joined us, or come out of the shadows! Lurkers and newbies, WELCOME! (yes, I was shouting in a joyous way) You are all going to love it here.

Hi, all! I'm Forge.

I'm not much of a forum guy, but since I've been lurking in the shadows for a couple months now, because I'm a huge fan of Carl's website, I thought I'd take the leap into the forums. I've been hooked up to and addicted to the Sims since the Sims 2 and I've got all the expansions for Sims 3, which I enjoy to no end. Anyway, that's all I wanted to say.

Take care, folks!

Welcome to all the New People!

This Forum and Guide are the Best there is, to have the Best Guide and Forum in one place is a very cool thing!

Hello all!

Welcome to the newcomers. I hope you enjoy our forum.

@Forge84: I always love it when someone enjoys my work enough to be a 'fan'. The mods and members here have been a major help in contributing and improving, too.

Hello Louise! Welcome to the forum.

Scout · « **Reply #761 on:** June 24, 2010, 10:56:32 AM »

Howdy!

I'm new here but not new to Sims. Although sometimes when I'm playing it seems as if I have no idea what I'm doing which I like to attribute to newness more so than stupidity. And I'll be sticking with that story.

I have an inner control freak, let's call it Scout Jr., which loves the total control I can have over the lives of my sims (probably why I liked SimCity as well). I do try to fight against that, somewhat unsuccessfully. For Sims 2 I wrote the Asylum Challenge for just that reason. Which reminds me that I really miss aspiration failures. Oh flour sack baby where have you gone?

But I digress, and strangely so. I love the guides on the site. And I could really use that information as I am a really slow player. Haven't even tried collecting yet. Also am looking forward to trying some of the challenges, although a non-modded game might confuse me even more than my natural state of confusion.

I'm off to poke around some. Prepare for pokage.

Welcome again to all newcomers. I can't keep up, lol. It is so great to see so many new members. Happy Simming!

Hi Scout...welcome!

You're going to just love collecting! Happy Simming!

Can you tell we are sisters, lol. Again, welcome.

Schipperke · « **Reply #765 on:** June 24, 2010, 12:48:44 PM »

Hi Scout & welcome,

I just read your post in the Random Wishmakers challenge where you said you were going to pet your dog for luck. I have 4 dogs, and when I need luck I always make sure to pet all four. Glad to meet another dog petter!

SJ · « **Reply #766 on:** June 24, 2010, 08:30:48 PM »

Well, I suppose I'm obligated now. I owe it to Carl/Pam/et. al, I suppose, since I've been using the guide extensively.

I'm SJ. I'm an actress. Almost exclusively stage acting, and I'm usually the comic relief. While it IS fun, I don't do it "for fun". It's what I do for a living...kind of like how other people are teachers or doctors or paralegals.

I love building in the Sims. I'm not particularly brilliant at it; I enjoy making "real" houses...things I've seen, or blueprints of houses that I try to copy. This is probably why I enjoy the Architect career right now, as boring and formulaic as it has become! Every now and then I'll use building cheats, but it becomes such a hassle that I normally work within the game's framework.

You may have seen me around the Sims community before. In the past, I've been SJ, SJActress, SJDActress, and WillWasWright. The last Sims forum I was a frequenter of was the Sporum, which has since shut down. I'm just looking for a place that's fun, kind, active, and informative, and CS3 seems to be that kind of place.

So, HELLO!

Pam · « **Reply #767 on:** June 24, 2010, 09:53:12 PM »

Welcome SJ! I don't think we have any actors/actresses, so you're our first! Now that I've said that, watch them start coming out of the woodwork!

Scout · « **Reply #768 on:** June 25, 2010, 08:15:26 AM »

Thanks for the welcome Saltypaws, bshag and Schipperke.

Schipperke, perhaps if I had 3 more dogs the petting would have given me a little bit more of luck. But since my roll could have been much worse I shouldn't complain. Yeah for us dog petters!

bshag · « **Reply #769 on:** June 25, 2010, 09:21:54 AM »

Hi SJ...yep, we're definitely that kind of place.

Welcome to the forum and happy simming!

Metropolis Man · « **Reply #770 on:** June 25, 2010, 09:38:33 AM »

SJ, welcome to the forums. My wife's 24-year-old niece is an actress and toured with the Playhouse Disney production. She was the main player and did the only real speaking and singing parts. My three daughters' mouths were wide open when we went to a show that stopped near our town. They just couldn't believe that their cousin was on stage in a bigtime production. So cool. My middle and oldest daughters were both in a recent production of Music Man.

Thanks for joining the forums.

Tallulah · « **Reply #771 on:** June 25, 2010, 07:36:31 PM »

I joined because there was a burning issue I knew about the Paranormal Investigator on the guide that nobody had pointed out so I just had to put it on thread. I had been reading on here for a while and it was just a matter of time before I made an account. Tallulah is a nickname of mine that I have had forever.

Ricker · « **Reply #772 on:** June 26, 2010, 08:54:43 AM »

I'm a late 20's fellow working in Minnesota in the IT field. I hopped on the forums as they seemed to be run smoothly and the idea of doing challenges for the game seemed like a good way to try different things with the game. I am fairly new to the game however. I apparently have the Frugal trait since I had to wait for the game to go on sale first.

Simstar3 · « **Reply #773 on:** June 26, 2010, 09:22:30 AM »

Welcome all newcomers!

bshag · « **Reply #774 on:** June 26, 2010, 11:46:43 AM »

Hi Tallulah and Ricker and welcome!

Tallulah, I haven't played the Ghostbuster career yet but will certainly be interested in your tip.

Ricker, I love the frugal trait...do you also clip coupons?

This is a great place to discuss sims without the drama so welcome.
