Hi there!

Post by Vooogerbits »

Hi Simmers,

My name is Molly, I'm 25 and I'm from the UK, now living in Germany doing a PhD. I've been a big fan of the sims since it came out and I was very wee, and my favourite is sims 2. I own sims 4 but never got into sims 3- 2 is where it's at for me (and 1 for the nostalgia/music, ofc!). I don't know how but I completely missed the challenges trend within the sims 2 so was really happy recently to discover that lots of people still love the sims 2 and share their stories. That's what led me here, can't wait to read all the fab looking stories here!

I'm posting my current legacy on my wordpress site: https://gerbitsimstories.wordpress.com/. It's the first challenge I've ever attempted and I'm loving it so far! I've also got a 'story' of sorts of a bunch of sims at college and what they get up to (mostly following their love lives, as it turned out).

I look forward to chatting with fellow simmers :D

Byee!
Happy Pride!!

Hello hello! It's in Linguistics, in the realms of syntactic change and language contact. Sims has always been my number one method of switching off during my studies :) What do you do? :)

Hey and welcome! I feel the same about Sims 2. Never really was interested in 4 and while I do find some things appealing in 3, that game can be a challenge to run without a state-of-the-art PC.

But yes, enjoy the stories! There are lots to choose from.

Thank you! (Love your username). I bought Sims 3 when it came out and my pc couldn't handle it, and I don't looove the aesthetics. I'll probably try it again when I have a good enough pc, and meanwhile enjoy the stories hehe.

Well 'Hi there' yourself, Vooogerbits! I do love to meet another Sims 2 addict. :toast:
Also the bit of background you gave is interesting to me as I supposedly have some German heritage.
Welcome to Boolprop and I hope you enjoy our stories :)

Hahaha I have thought before if Simlish was a proper language I'd be too distracted by analysing it than playing the game :P I watched a very interesting video about how even though it's nonsense, Simlish still uses American English phonemes- otherwise it might sound *too* alien to Americans/other English speakers.

The Sims 2 has aged like fine wine! :newyear:
That's cool! My Oma was German (hence why we called her Oma) but unfortunately she didn't teach any of her children German and passed away when I was 5. So my German blood/family has not helped me haha. I did German at school and have always wanted to move here to become fluent, and the fact I can get my PhD at the same time was too tempting :)

Thank you very much! I'm having a blast just exploring!
Happy Pride!!

Apparently I totally missed your intro, but WELCOME!!! I am also generally a sims 2 player, although my TS2 stories have taken a bit of a backseat to my TS4 stories of late, but I agree, TS2 is probably my favorite. Glad to have you and hope you have lots of fun here, it's a great place!
