Hiya

Post by itsjulie »

Hiya, I'm Julie and at nearly 50 I guess I should have grown up a long time ago - but - I'm addicted to sims :)
Ive been playing sims for what feels like forever and have played my way through sims1 2 and 3. I am stuck on Sims3 and dont intend to move onto sims4 - not yet anyway.

I do a lot of writing and have a few legacy's ongoing - which I'm taking a break from at the moment.
I only tend to play with ugly and rainbow sims - and generally play the wishacy way.
I love doing challenges with my sims so I will definitely be lurking about in challenge central.

BE WARNED - I am addicted to Marty Keaton and have been since the base game ... dont ask me why because I really don' know. I tend to post a lot of pictures and stupid stuff from my game so you will probably be seeing quite a lot of him when I get going along with my man eating simself Red who torments him as well as gives him (and half of the town) lots of ugly children. :spin:

Image

I play a lot in CAW and build a lot of my own worlds. I prefer to use custom worlds (preferably empty ones) because I enjoy building up the town from scratch. Its been a long time since I actually played an EA world.

I am a friend of Cororon who pointed me in the direction of this forum, we have been rattling around for years on another forum together. :)

so that's about it I think.

Ohhh! Welcome to Boolprop Julie :) It's so good to see a bunch of new blood :shifty: Sims 3 players coming over, because the Sims 3 sections are a little dead. I love Mr Keaton too, so you're in good company here B) I'm glad Coro introduced you to the site! I hope you have a great time here :D

Hello, Julie! It's been a while. You write Through Colourblind Eyes, right? I've read big pieces of it. It's really creative stuff. I'm pretty sure I used to comment there as Echo Weaver. You might remember me :).

It's good to see folks here, especially (to be selfish) Sims 3 players. Just cuz that's what I play :)

Hi echo :spin:

Yes I am the one scribbling "Through Colourblind Eyes" and I do remember you :D
It is a very sim world - I've spotted a few names that I recognise - Rflong7 in particular as I love her custom worlds and play with a few :grin:
I know the feeling - I've felt very down about things since sims4 came out - not interested in it for a few reasons - it is nice to find other sims 3 players :D

It seems like Sims 3 fandom dried up for a while, but it seems like it's caught its stride again.

It has never left me.
I guess a lot of people have tried 4, been disappointed and returned to 3. I know a few people who have done that.
I think I will be forever with sims 3 - the very first thing that strikes me about 4 is that the sims appear plasticy and unrealistic again like in the sims 2.
I love sims3 for how real they look, I am too attached to my rainbow, ugly sims and favourite premades which I can't recreate in sims 4.
Another thing about 4 that I really don't like - no toddler stage - which is my favourite life stage :pan:
I just can't be doing with the change and disappointment when I am very happy to stick with sims 3
and I'm happy I've found somewhere where there seem to still be a lot of sims3 players :#1:

I don't have a problem with Sims 4. I read some Sims 4 blogs. I just have a staggering amount of time, money, modding, and optimizing invested in this one. I'm not even going to consider switching to 4 until I finish the challenges I started in 3 -- and that's going to be quite a while. I do hope they add toddlers someday.

Hi Julie, welcome to Boolprop! I'm also a Sims 3 loyalist - not that I have anything against the other games, but Echoweaver says it just about perfectly. After all the tweaking I've done, my TS3 feels like my game and my TS4 feels totally foreign, at least for now. (And I didn't know how to mod yet in TS2, so yeah. :P ) If you're ever looking for a hub of TS3 players, it seems like most of us are camped out on our Wordpress sites these days. But our numbers here are looking a little better too! Hope to see you around. :)

P.S. Ugly sims ftw!

Haha, sorry! "Ftw" = "for the win." Basically what I mean to say is "Hooray for ugly sims!"... because I enjoy playing them too. :)
