More Awesome Than You!

Hi. Can someone please tell me why when I try to get Santa to visit in Sims 2, I get a faceless man in a business suit named Santa Klaus instead of the real Santa Klaus that is supposed to show up?  He acts like the real Santa...Says "Ho, ho, ho!"  and leaves gifts, but I know he's not supposed to look like that. Does anyone know what the problem might be and how to fix it?  I'm desperate!  If anyone wants me to post the error log, I will. 

It's a metaphor for capitalism, clearly.

Thank you, Georgette, for your smart alec answer and lack of help.  I don't post my questions just to get insulted or get rude answers like yours.  I post because I actually need help or I wouldn't be here, believe me.

Okay, Georgette was clearly making a joke, which you are obviously too ZOMGSENSITIVE to appreciate.  Seriously, if that was enough to yank your chain, you should probably fuck off somewhere else right now before someone posts something that makes you cut yourself.

Why are you insulting me?  Seriously...I find neither of your posts necessary or remotely funny.  What does either have to do with my question?  Is this forum just to make fun of people?  If so, than it should be reported.  It was highly recommended to me by two people who have told me that there are smart people here who could help me.  But all I ever get are insults.  So sorry I bothered everyone with my silly little problem about TS2 (which this section of the forum is supposed to be about).  How about renaming the forum "We're Just Here to Insult and Make Fun of Everyone"? Bye. I'll post someplace else where people might actually be around to help.

HUR. Reported where? To the internet police? Watch out, I have been backtracing your e-mails.

OMG, it's onto us, everyone turn off the lights and be quiet!

FirstofMay, whoever recommended this place to you is either a great deal smarter and savvier than you are, or they were yanking your chain, which I can only assume has a fob shaped like a snowflake at the end. Read the FAQ, retard.

I could do without the name calling, asshole!  How do you like it?

Uh, you know you're not addressing someone who goes by Kittens4Eva, right? You're funny.

And exactly what FAQ?  All I see is a Help button that explains about posting and such.  And I've looked at all the other threads here.  They seem very helpful, so why are you all attacking me instead of answering my original question about TS2?  

I for one thought Georgette's comment was very amusing.

People are attacking you because nobody here knows you from a bar of soap, yet you come in here and demand assistance. Go do that where someone cares. Firstly, this isn't TS2 Customer Complaints Department, and secondly, your problem is probably the stupidest I've ever heard of. It's not breaking your game, the sim just looks funny, so stop whining. You probably have some piece of Custom Content that is causing that, now shut up.

If you have looked at every other thread here, then you would have seen the FAQ. I am on to you. You are like a low-budget version of the Sicilian, but possibly more of an asshat. I assume you are going back to school soon and then we won't have to worry about you anymore.

ETA: THIS IS THE WOAR ROOM, YOU CAN'T FIGHT IN HERE.

Search moar. Typing "FAQ" into the search box in the top left corner of your screen yields pretty good results - all links found there thoroughly introduce you to the atmosphere of this place. And if you really had looked at all the other threads of this sub-forum, you'd have noticed that stupid, probably CC-related glitches like yours don't belong here.

Edit: Darn, typing too slow.

FYI, I DON'T HAVE any CC.  And if you had asked nicely instead of assuming, I would've told you that.  And if my type of post didn't belong here, all someone had to do is NICELY tell me where to post it or move it like someone did to another post of mine.  There was NO reason to be rude to someone, especially a newbie.

You have obviously not looked at any other threads here. Or lurked. You fail.

Why should we have to ask you anything, or speak to you nicely? Are you shitting golden eggs or something and feel like sharing? We don't know you, and we don't like you. And there is ALWAYS a reason to be rude. You have no clue where you are, do you? Turn tail and run, poppet.

Because it's just polite, that's why.  I wouldn't insult someone who just came to a forum to ask a question and posted in a section that clearly looked appropriate.  And I expect to be treated with the same respect.

Then go somewhere with sheep. MATY doesn't work that way. You should have been prepared.

What on earth made you choose "The War Room" over "Oops, you broke it!" ? The descriptions should have been clear enough. Get your special behind somewhere where they hold your hand while listening to you whine about your problems. Don't let the door hit you on your way out.

Mire, is that you again? You are such a goose.

First, I did NOT DEMAND help. I asked.  Second, if you would've read another of my posts in response to someone else, I said I DON'T have ANY custom content!  I don't even LIKE custom content. So get your stories straight before you insult someone.

If you were on to me, you jerk, you'd know I'm 42 years old not some teenybopper who is only trying to cause trouble.  So shut the hell up unless you KNOW what you are talking about, which clearly you don't.  And btw, there is a Home, button, HELP button, Search button, calendar button, and Logout button.  NO FAQ button, so don't blame me.  And yes, I read the HELP section.  That's how I know this forum is here for HELPING, not attacking.

Tell me where the "Ooops, you broke it" section is, and I'll gladly go to it.  I went to "The War Room" because it said it was for in-game discussions.  And like I said, I read the other threads in the War Room, and it looked like a good place to post.  I'm SORRY if I committed the ultimate sin and made a mistake.  Are you happy now, Mr/Ms. Perfect??!!!

42 years old and someone joking about a faceless businessman in your game is enough to get you THIS worked up? Seriously, grow the fuck up. I didn't insult you at all. And also 'you know this forum is here for HELPING, not attacking'? Does the phrase "MOAR FIGHT" mean nothing to you?

And stop triple posting!

No, what gets me worked up is that I'm verbally attacked just for asking a question.  And second, I didn't triple post.  I posted a response to each person individually. I didn't post the same stuff 3 times.

Triple posting simply means when you make three posts consecutively, when you should have addressed each person in one post. Forum etiquette: learn some.

How about this...I'll learn forum etiquette when everyone here learns some manners.   See...I can sling it, too.

You didn't get "verbally attacked" for asking a question, that only happened after you decided to get all huffy and insulted over an innocent (and funny) joke. If you'd just shut up and waited a bit longer, maybe you'd even gotten some help, but you had to go and ruin that for yourself. But by all means, keep crying over the injustice of it all. Surely, YOU have done NOTHING wrong!!!1

This is why we usually kill noobs on sight.

Didn't you soup, Asstear?
At any rate, I'll indulge your little game for a moment and say: Why do we have to be polite when you can't? Do you really think it's polite to join a forum about which you know absolutely nothing, post in the wrong place because you didn't read the forum descriptions, throw a tantrum when people don't immediately give you exactly what you want, repeatedly defy forum rules even when they've been explained to you, and then order us all to change our ways on the grounds of some authority that you, you little unimportant insect, will not and cannot ever possess? What gives you the right to dictate which of our behaviours is acceptable, when the nature of "acceptable" is subjective and your personal interpretation of it holds as much weight here, at a forum at which you've never before posted or even lurked, and of which you've clearly failed to grok the rules and culture, as a cubic metre of average Earth air at STP? If you're allegedly 42, surely you are grown up enough to know that you don't know everything, and not everyone has to defer to your judgement at all times? But, of course, the 42 figure was a transparent lie - you're clearly 12, Asstear. A sheltered trust-fund-babby 12 with no idea how the real world actually works. I certainly don't envy you when you graduate - not because of having learned anything but because your teachers just want to get rid of you - and have to work out how to make a living at a real job doing real soul-crushing labour. I figure you'll be dead inside of a month. If I could be moved to pity, that might do it; as it stands, though, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for someone else.

Excuse me?  First, do a little research. #1.  I WAS polite in my first post in this thread until people started attacking me.  2.  I HAVE posted here before. 3. I AM 42.  And don't talk to me about my having to make a living at a real job doing "real soul-crushing labor".  I happen to be disabled, in a wheelchair for the past 32 years.  If I could get a job, sweetheart, I would.  But people don't seem to believe in equal opportunity employment around here.  So get a life and stop talking about things you clearly know nothing about.

Nobody attacked you. Somebody made a joke, and you got all offended. Grow a fucking thicker skin, not everything's all about you. Also, you really WEREN'T very polite, since, you know, you FAILED TO READ THE FAQ and then POSTED IN THE WRONG PLACE, and said post was whiny and demanding, but that's beside the point.Wow, really? I was giving you the benefit of the doubt, there; if you HAVE posted before, this just means that your failure to read the FAQ, lurk at all, or grok MATY culture is all the more pathetic.Ha! Another Welfare Whale? Awesome; if we get just one more, we can make the four of them fight to the death in the Arena! :D At any rate, in the US, there's this fun little thing called the Americans with Disabilities Act; if the country or region in which you live doesn't guarantee you the right to work, then you should, you know, LEAVE and stop being such a little bitch.I have a life, TYVM. And, from the looks of it, my life's better than yours, since I have an education, a decent student job, an excellent, recession-proof career path in extremely high demand mapped out, and, perhaps most importantly, an IQ over the 30 or so you boast. I'm not "talking about things [I] clearly know nothing about"; I'm merely talking about the things I observe, and I observe that you are a sad little entitled retard who deserves only contempt.

Got news for you sweetie....I have above average IQ...and the documentation to prove it, which is more than I can say for you.  And I'm more aware of the Disabilites Act than you know.  IF I could move, I would, but we can't.  We're barely making ends meet as it is here.  Like I said, attacking me about my posts is one thing, but don't you DARE talk to me about my personal life, which you know nothing about.  That is off limits and has NOTHING to do with why I'm posting. 

(http://i25.tinypic.com/98fqmc.jpg)

You are clearly a waste and unable to make a valuable contribution to society by reason of eXtreme SUCKINESS, taking up valuable oxygen and resources that should rightly belong to someone with an IQ higher than their age. STFU, GTFO and DIAF.

Seriously, playing the "My IQ is MOAR HIGH THAN URS and I R MOAR OPPRESS!" game, HERE? My God, how stupid can you get?

And btw, to whoever said I didn't read the forum description before I posted here.  This is what the first part of it says for The War Room:  "TS2 gameplay-related strategery, tips, facts, and data".  THAT is why I posted my original question here.

Pfft. Everyone claims to have above average IQ on the Internet. I took the WISC as a literal 6 and still have the paper that states that my IQ was well within the range that I was at the time informed was "highly gifted" or some such thing; do I go around parading this as a reason why people should listen to me? No. I don't even expect you to believe it. Nobody here gives a fuck about how intelligent you think you are; all we care about is how you present yourself, and you ACT like a developmentally disabled 12-year-old with a severe entitlement complex.Oh, then you ARE USistani like I thought? Then why do you claim that you can't work where you are? Your right to work is guaranteed, so, if you won't take the jobs that you can do despite your disability (which, I must note, I don't actually believe you HAVE - transparent sympathy ploy, right there), that's your problem, not anyone else's. Hence, Welfare Whale.That is a classic Welfare Whale response. The ORIGINAL Welfare Whale says it all the time, and I'll respond to you the same way I respond to her: Is there someone or something stopping you from loading your family and worldly possessions into a car and driving away? Does someone have a gun to your head demanding that you stay where you are despite the difficulties? Sell your trailer - and I just know it's a trailer - and any possession you don't need, then use the money to make your escape. It's not rocket science.Nothing is off-limits. You got yourself into this; the only way to get out is to soup.

Your post had nothing to do with any of those. It WAS, however, both a question that you need to ask someone who will make fun of you (The Podium description) and a case of "HELP ME!!! It's broken!" (Oops! You Broke It! description). You didn't think either of those would be a better place to post?

(ETA: It was the WISC, not the WIAT, derp derp. Well, to be fair, I took both, and still have the scores for both, but the WISC is the one that tests IQ.)

First, my post DID have to do with game-play related stuff otherwise EA wouldn't have told me to post on a bbs/forum for help with in-game play..and since Santa is IN GAME, it's an IN GAME issue. DUH! 

And not that I have to explain anything to you, but I'll indulge you in your little "I know everything and am better than you are" game.  First, of all know-it-all, I have Spina Bifida and Scoliosis.  I was born disabled.  Second, just because the right for me to work is guaranteed doesn't mean I can actually GET hired.  It just means I have a right to work like everyone else.  I've tried getting a job around here for years, and no one will comply with the laws.  I can't even get a job as a secretary after being trained to be one in high school!  That plus the economy=no job opportunities.  I'm so glad you live in a place where jobs are plentiful, but we're not all that fortunate.  You wanna come here and put a gun to someone's head and force them to hire me? Be my guest.  I won't waste my time visiting you in prison.  Oh, and my dad is chief of police, so I can pretty much guarantee a heavy sentence.

As for moving, newsflash...You need money to do that...and a place to go to.  You wanna give us money to travel and buy or rent a new place?  How about finding a place for us that is wheelchair accessible?  Yeah, that will really happen.  My mom is only working 6 hrs. a day because that's all she can get here and her retired boyfriend is working two hours a day.  My mother is my caregiver.  My guess is you have money or come from money and don't have the first clue about people less fortunate than you.  I have relatives like you. 

Get a life and stop acting like you know anything about mine.

It was a question, not a fact, strategy, tip, or datum. Therefore, it does not belong in the War Room.I don't know everything yet, although I am always making progress toward that goal; however, I am definitely better than you are. Even the Whale is better than you.Yes, yes, I'm sure. How nice for you. How this prevents you from acting intelligently in an internet forum wherein nobody can see you and you never need to walk, I have no idea.That's your problem. If you don't have marketable skills that will earn you enough money to live off of, you deserve to starve in the street. However, I refuse to believe that you can't get any job at all. I'm sure you're qualified for Fry Cook or Cashier, positions which are going to be available as long as people shop and eat fast food; what's stopping you from taking such a job?Again, move. What's stopping you from packing everything into a car and leaving? Even if you don't have a car, you can get a taxi or rent a van.Well, that was completely non-sequitur. What makes you think I care about whether or not you have a job? You shouldn't need someone to FORCE people to hire you - if you seriously can't get a job on you own merit, you deserve to starve in the street.Sell your old home and unnecessary possessions. I already said that.You could always live out of a van for a while or something; nothing wrong with that. When you have enough money, get into a trailer park so that you at least have something, then work your way up to a small one-story home on a flat piece of land. Utterly straightforward.Ha, you live with your mother? Dude, people with spina bifida manage to be independent all the time, and I know some. This is clearly your cover for being 12 and, as 12s do, still living with your parents.Epic Fail. I have money because my parents and grandparents were thrifty, as am I, and I thus have a generous supply of savings. So, yes, I do have money, because my family - myself included - worked for that money, and saved it instead of throwing it away on pointless dumbshit like you. I am completely qualified to tell you how to turn a small income into a comfortable life, since, you know, I am doing that RIGHT NOW. I'm a bloody college student, you think I make much? Of course not, but I get on just fine. If I can do it, so can you.Here's an idea, then: get money from them. I'm sure you're going to whine about dignity and not accepting charity, so I'll preempt that: You have no dignity. You can't support yourself, so you don't get to be choosy. You're going to have to suck it up and deal.You already said that! Like I said, I have a perfectly good life, and I'm only "acting like" I know about your life because I do. You've said more than enough for me to infer the whole picture, and you prove my inferences right at every turn. How about you stop being such a whiny F and actually try to make your life better instead of wallowing over it?

Then STFU and stop mentioning it.
Also how does your question relate to "TS2 gameplay-related strategery, tips, facts, and data"? Epic Fail.
Please leave. Your righteous indignation is ruining the atmosphere.

There's no such thing as not relevant here. If you mention it it is fair game for us. WHICH YOU'D KNOW IF YOU BOTHERED TO LURK MOAR.

You're "42" but your dad is the chief of police and your mom is your caretaker? Your mom has to be what over 60? WTF is she doing taking care of you. Someone should be taking care of her. I'm guessing you're really not 42.

You are a serious ass!  Disabled adults live with their parents all the time!  Especially ones who need more care than others!  Besides, many adults who aren't disabled still live at home, so don't even go there!  And did you stop to think there are different degrees of Spina Bifida because there are.  Some are better off than others.  I personally need more help than some.  So get your facts straight before you start shooting off your mouth and looking dumber than you already do.  I managed to graduate high school....my parents fought to get me into public school...if it weren't for them, this area probably still wouldn't have disabled kids in public school.  I was the first disabled person to graduate high school AND I took courses after school.  I'm only telling you this because you obviously don't have a clue about me, so you just assuming everything about me is only making you look like the jackass you are!  I bet you probably even spit on people in the street.  My family works just as hard as your does/did. Probably harder and we've taken care of all my medical needs without help because there never was any help for us.  So don't insult me or my family again.  As for Fry Cook...Yeah, I can't even get around a stove, especially those big ones in a restaurant...even if it is McDonalds or Burger King.  Try thinking before you speak.  I have applied for more jobs in 25 years than you know and have been shot down at every turn because all people see is the chair.  Why am I telling you all this?  Because I will not have you or anyone else posting crap about me when you don't even KNOW me.  You say I said enough for you to "infer a picture" of my life.  Honey, you couldn't even begin to infer anything you know nothing about.  So shut the hell up once and for all about my personal life and just stick to the original topic, which as far as I'm concerned is closed.

I only mentioned it when I got attacked and treated like I was a non-human.  Yes, my mom is over 60, but we have to live.  I didn't say she does everything for me, but some things I still need help with and luckily, she can help me.  And I am 42.  How do you want me to prove it?  I can direct you to my family tree if you wish...Send my picture?

How does my question about the NPC Santa IN the Sims2 game "relate to "TS2 gameplay-related strategy, tips, facts, and data"? Epic Fail."  Please...is that a serious question.   Hello?  GAMEPLAY-related????

Seriously? Quit triple posting.

Yes, I am a serious ass. Thanks for noticing. It so ruins my day when no one notices that I'm an asshole.

OOOH you finished HIGH SCHOOL! HOW AMAZING FOR YOU. Are we seriously going to get into a pissing match about education? YOU WILL LOSE. Will. Lose. Guaranteed.

Yes, please do direct us to your family tree. That should be amusing and fun for everyone. It's always nice when stupids dox themselves.

Don't triple-post. Make ONE post at a time, idiot.
That is only a tiny part of the full statement; your question was neither a strategy, tip, fact, or datum, so it has no place here.
You can prove you're 42 by not acting 12. At any rate, you ARE a non-human, as far as we're concerned. Once you can prove that you are more intelligent than shelf fungus - by acting like it - then you will be treated like it as well.
Again with the failure to grok MATY culture. Just soup already, you are never going to be accepted here. We are ALL assholes, it's the whole point.Not really, no. Even the developmentally retarded usually leave for some kind of group-home arrangement, and you claim not to be developmentally retarded (although frankly you act like you are).But you obviously don't. All the evidence from your behaviour and what you've told us of your life suggests that you could get by on your own, perhaps with a live-in nurse.And these people are stupid and deserve contempt. They are biological failures and should be treated as such.If you really need so much help, you should be in the care of trained medical personnel, not your mum.It is so hilariously ironic that you are saying this.They manifestly only let you out out of either pity or the desire to get rid of you, since you clearly have not learned anything.I'm not assuming. I'm merely inferring from what I observe of you. You are not exactly hiding your stupidity, so of course I will comment on it.Anyone who acts like you do deserves much worse than a bit of spit. A bullet to the head would suit you better, to be completely frank. Put you out of everyone else's misery.Clearly you don't, since you have admitted that you HAVE NO MONEY. Either you don't work at all, or you do work but fritter it away on things you don't need instead of being rational.I will insult whomever I choose. Feel free to make me stop.HA, so you're saying you're not even qualified for Fry Cook? This is rich. No wonder you don't have a job. You are pathetic and you deserve to starve to death in the street like the beached welfare-whale that you are.Well, since you clearly don't have any intelligence or skills for them to look at, what else would they be able to see? It's not that people only see the chair, it's that you have NOTHING ELSE TO OFFER.Then don't post on MATY, whiny little bitch. Act stupid here and you WILL get insulted. No two ways about it.Hur, you don't even know what "infer" MEANS, do you? The whole point is to form a hypothesis based on limited data. You've given me more than enough to understand your position, I assure you.Again, make me. You don't write the rules here; you want people to quit insulting you, the only thing you can do is soup off like the stupid whiny F that you are.

If you're going to insult me, get your facts straight.  I didn't say I'm not qualified for Fry Cook.  I said I wouldn't be able to get around the stove with my chair. 

That is definitely a case of being unqualified for the job. If you are not smart enough to work out how to get through, then you shouldn't be trusted with food. You'd probably think that, having run out of shoelace fries, the obvious solution is to fry your own shoelaces to get more.

ETA: As an aside, why does it always take you so long to respond? What's your typing speed, 0.4 wpm? I see in the ?action=who that you're posting, but it takes you ages to finish even short posts like that one.

Why does it always take me so long to respond?  Because I clearly have a life unlike you and am not sitting on top of this site waiting to attack someone or be attacked.  And I was top of my class in typing, thank you very much.  Oh, and not being able to get around a stove doesn't mean "unqualified".  It means I have limitations.  Learn the difference, bitch.  I'm sure you have limitations, too and can't do every job.  Can you be President?  Can you build a car?  No?  Why?  Because you have limitations as to what you can do.  And FYI, there are tons of things I KNOW I'm qualified for that I can't get hired for, so shut the hell up about what I can and can't do.  I even had voc. rehab. turn me down for things because they say I couldn't do them, which I can.  And since my edited post didn't post for some reason, here is what you said and what I was going to say. 


"My family works just as hard as your does/did. Probably harder and we've taken care of all my medical needs without help because there never was any help for us.
Clearly you don't, since you have admitted that you HAVE NO MONEY. Either you don't work at all, or you do work but fritter it away on things you don't need instead of being rational."


I can't believe you even said this considering I already told you I don't have a job.  You're not even paying attention now.  Just spouting shit.  Don't you dare talk about my family.  YOu have no idea what we've been through since I was born in '68.  We've all worked damn hard to get to where we are.

It is not gameplay related. That would be hints for getting santa to show, or a formula to get better presents. IT'S A BORK, AS IN BROKEN. YOU WOULD KNOW IT WASN'T THE RIGHT FORUM IF YOU HAD BEEN BOTHERED TO READ THE OTHER THREADS IN THERE.

FFS.

Seriously, WTF do you hope to achieve by posting in this thread? We're not going to help you, because we really don't like you. We don't care about you, or your life, or your Mom so just shut up and go away.

Ok, fine..it's not gameplay...even though EA told me it was.  But hey, you guys know more than EA right?  You're so much smarter than they are.  Yeah, sure.  And I don't like you either.  So there...I don't give a shit about any of you.  You can all fall off the planet for all I care.  But I did post my question under the right category after I found it (It isn't listed on the main page, which is why I didn't see it in the first place.  So since I did post it in the right place now, I guess you're stuck with me.  Have fun, sweetie.

Ha, you have no idea, sheeple.  :D


Well, at least until you get canned, anyway.

Oh, and to everyone who keeps saying I'm 12...Remember the Sims Online?  That was back in what, 2002?  I was a beta tester/player for them.  If I'm 12 now, that would've made me what, 4 then.  12?  Yeah, right, sure I am....uh huh. 

I'm not worried about getting canned.  People here have said worse to me than what I have said.  If I deserve to get canned, so do others. 

So, not only are you disabled and developmentally retarded, you also can't multitask? How do you manage to survive? Do you have to remind yourself how to breathe?Again, this was clearly out of pity.And not knowing how to get around those limitations makes you unqualified.Wow, way to be "polite". You are SO an Asstear sock.Of course I could. As an INTJ, I'm qualified for a leadership role, although ENTJs make better public figures.Yes. It's not hard.... Epic Fail. Weren't you just ordering me not to assume things?A smart person not only knows his limitations, but knows how to subvert them and do something anyway.I'm willing to bet that your "knowledge" regarding this is, in fact, incorrect. You clearly have an enormous ego, so it makes sense that your interpretation of your abilities is not in line with reality.I'm going to bet that you can't, you just THINK you can because you are stupid.I'm guessing you just fail at posting, just like you fail at everything else.Your family members do. "You" can be plural as well as singular, you retard.Like I said, feel free to make me stop if you can. What are you going to do about it? Report me to the Interwebs Police? Hah.You're a "we" now? You have multiple-personality disorder? Also, hur on that HULK SMASH PUNY KEYBOARD moment. You are so like the Whale, it's hilarious.The fact that you think that you've "worked damn hard" proves that you haven't. It is typical of an entitled whiner to claim to have worked terribly hard after barely doing anything. A person with a decent work ethic, on the other hand, doesn't think that working hard means that he deserves to be
coddled, and simply considers his work to be exactly hard enough, if not suboptimal. You're such a little bitch, it's just pathetic.
Mayonnaise is smarter than EA officials. You need to actually learn about the forum instead of just listening to EA's bullshit.Big fucking deal? WDCNo, you can't "fix your mistake" by reposting it. The damage is done, and you already proved yourself stupid. You don't get a mulligan.Do you think that that kind of passive-aggressive retardery is witty? It's really not, it just makes you look like a sadsack. Which you are.Prove that you were a beta-tester. I mean, I could claim to have been a beta-tester for them, too, and I was a 12 in 2002. As an aside, there is no 4, only 0, and you could easily have been a 6 in 2002 and be 12 now.Everyone else has been following the forum's rules. It's not about saying "worse" things; in this forum, people are SUPPOSED to insult the stupid - such as yourself - and being stupid - like you are - gets people canned. Yet again you fail to grok the culture. Why are you so stupid? Are you on drugs?

Now where is that EA *alpha-tester* when we need him?  Hoping this gets moved to retardo land soon.

Oh, FirstofMay. Maybe you should go toddle around iVillage for a while before you come back here.

"Prove that you were a beta-tester. I mean, I could claim to have been a beta-tester for them, too, and I was a 12 in 2002. As an aside, there is no 4, only 0, and you could easily have been a 6 in 2002 and be 12 now."  

My you are bad at math.  You do know this is 2010 right?

"The fact that you think that you've "worked damn hard" proves that you haven't. It is typical of an entitled whiner to claim to have worked terribly hard after barely doing anything. A person with a decent work ethic, on the other hand, doesn't think that working hard means that he deserves to be coddled, and simply considers his work to be exactly hard enough, if not suboptimal. You're such a little bitch, it's just pathetic."

First, it's HER work, not his...I'm a female, thank you.  And "worked damn hard" has many meanings...In my case, I HAVE worked damn hard to get as far as I am.  I worked/fought to live when I was born and they said I'd die, I worked hard my entire life to prove to people I could do things they said I can't, I worked damn hard in school.  I worked damn hard learning to take care of myself as well as I do.  So don't tell me I haven't worked hard.  

Bitch, please. You're not the only one who has been around since TS1 etc. so please don't play that card.   You started this by spazzing out at a joke.

Edit: the moar you point out you are a female, the moar we will call you a 'him'.

Another culture failure. Try reading up on the Rule of 6.You also don't have a decent work ethic, so I was clearly not talking about you.Again, if you really HAD, you wouldn't say such a thing.And yet you have clearly learned nothing and achieved nothing with your life. Pitiful.But you just said you can't take care of yourself, so clearly you haven't learned that, either. BLS, YSB.

I never said I can't take care of myself.  I said I need help taking care of myself.  Learn the difference.  You know what?  You probably can't do everything by yourself and need help doing things at times.  Same here.  So should I call you a pathetic helpless bitch just because you need help with some things?  And if you say you don't, you're lying because we all need help sometimes.

There's no difference.And you tell ME not to assume things? You're completely wrong; I live alone, and do everything for myself, because I'm not a retard like you.What an Fly sentiment. You have none of the insight to which you pretend, and you are trying to get sympathy from a dry well.

Not cool Tsen, not cool.

Definitely not cool.  True, she's an oversensitive twatwaffle with a sense of entitlement as long as an elephant's dick, but doxing is going too far.

"And you tell ME not to assume things? You're completely wrong; I live alone, and do everything for myself, because I'm not a retard like you."

Yeah, sure....you expect everyone to believe that you have NEVER asked for help a day in your life for ANYTHING?  Homework?  A job task?  Something around the house?  Sorry, I don't buy that at all.  

"What an Fly sentiment. Shut up, Traci; you have none of the insight to which you pretend, and you are trying to get sympathy from a dry well.:"  Interesting you used my name.  I never posted my name and it's not in my profile.  Hmm..that means you know me...interesting..that could explain a lot.  And yes, there is a difference between not being able to take care of yourself at all and needing help taking care of yourself.  I do most things just fine...I only need help with a few things.  So stop saying I'm totally helpless and treating me like I'm a piece of shit.  Now if you will excuse me, I have to pee...if that' s allowed.

I don't ask for help. It's not in my nature.Well, which is it? Are you completely dependent on your caregivers like you said before, or are you almost independent? You can't have both.Again, make me stop. If you think you can force me to stop, go ahead. As long as you can't, I'll say what I like.

Thank you...I think...and I do not have a sense of entitlement....Anyway, I just looked up DOX.  No wonder he knew my name...didn't see where he did that, but thanks for bringing it to everyone's attention.

Actually, you can. I used to be paid to help disabled peeps, like FirstOfMay, do the stuff that they were not capable of doing on their own. Most of my clients were fairly independent, but needed help with various things around the house like getting in and out of the tub, or washing dishes.

I NEVER said I was completely dependent on my caregivers.  Those are YOUR words.  I never said that sentence.  I said my mother was my caregiver.  She helps me with things I can't do myself.  If you're going to quote me, you could at least get it right.

Does... does that even make sense? Your grammar is getting steadily worse and I can't unravel what you mean by this. Do you think that 'DOX' is something from which someone can learn your name? IDGI.

Yes; I mentioned such an arrangement as something that could help her be more independent, and she said she was too dependent on her family members for it. That's what I would call merely somewhat dependent, not completely dependent, although, to be fair, it's not like there's a standards board defining exactly where the line lies.

Thank you, Jessla!

WTF? You specifically denied that such a thing was possible when I told you. Are you really so stupid that you can't even remember what you've been arguing?

Well, from what I understood when I googled it, it did.  At least that's how I took it..."Dox, or being doxed, in terms of online forum sites, is the physical equivalent of being butt-raped irl. Just as all the greats have, when a person is "doxed", all their personal information is made available for all users to see. Names, addresses, phone numbers and school/work are not spared, and this usually leads to the person ceasing all ties with said websites, if not the interwebs as a whole."  Ha!  So either you did that or you do know who I am.  Hmm..now I just have to figure out who you are...although I might have a pretty good idea.

Tsen crossed a line. We don't approve of doxing on MATY. We also don't approve of your butthurt flailing.

I thought we weren't supposed to talk about your personal life? Are you an ISFJ?

Please, explain how I could have done that without already knowing who you are. It just doesn't make sense. I'd have to know that information before making it available, no?

But she was sticking up for me and proved you can be both totally dependent in some areas and totally independent in others.  That's what I got from her post.  Am I wrong, Jessla?  

But... when I said the same thing, you refused to accept it. There is a failure in your logic.

So why are you such a sensitive, delicate flower that you got all rage at a joke? And why do we keep hearing about your life when you don't want to talk about it?

"I thought we weren't supposed to talk about your personal life? Are you an ISFJ?"  I didn't come in here to talk about my life.  The conversation was started by someone else.  I've just been trying to finish it.  Would be nice if a MOD would show their face and take care of some of these jerks.

But you didn't say the same thing. You said I was either completely dependent or just a little dependent, and I couldn't be both.  SHE said yes, you can. 

You realize that everything we know about you--your age, your genius or whatever, your living situation, your disability, you being a beta tester...this has all been voluntarily offered by you, right?

Generally speaking there are no mods here, this place is pretty much ruled by anarchy and the occasional whim of Pescado. ERGO, we're all free to be the jerks that we really are. People like you are easy targets for us, you volunteer information about yourself, put your easily searchable email in your profile, get butthurt over jokes, and attempt to steer us away from personal topics (which is very similar to the reaction sharks have to blood in the water).

It's fun to screw around and flame idiots. We're like /b/lite here and it's awesome.

Christ on a cracker. Once every THREE YEARS I take an afternoon off to get my Butthairs did, and THIS is what I miss? You people.

TardOfMay, you are an idiot. No one is going to sympathise with you, no matter how much personal crap you share. Put on your big girl pants, or fuck off. All of this stuff that is making you so butthurt you brought entirely upon yourself.

I don't approve of the filthy weasel and his doxage, but you are kind of hilarious, and I can see why he was tempted. Keep us updated on how many of your friends and relations deny being "tsen", okay?

This is as close to an intervention by a MOD or an internet police as you are going to get.

I couldn't resist.  I searched.  And this person makes Celestard look like Princess Grace. 

That's PRINCESS GWEN to you, sevrine.

Please note that this poster has clearly stated how she would like the responses to be made. She is here involuntarily and requires HELP, not obfuscation.

The offensive posts in question have been reported to the Internet Police and consequences will never be the same.

Yes, why? Why are you all attacking this, erm, person?

Again, this poster has clearly stated how she would like her help provided and how questions and comments should be phrased. Please stop making assumptions about the poster, she will no doubt tell us everything we need to know.

See above.

Does she have to KEEP REPEATING herself?

My God, all these years and I never realised. I feel so ashamed when I think of all those people I sporked. This forum can has a HELP button. This is probably blindingly obvious to someone who is used to pressing the HELP button in all situations, but alas, it eluded me.

I'm SORRY we made you SORRY, we will try not to do it again.

Oh now, I think that's a little strong...

OMG. You people have been mean to a CRIPPLE. How COULD you do that? Are you properly ashamed of yourselves NOW?

Sweetie, it is so hard for us to understand your circumstances, as we are all so privileged in our perfect health and bodies, not to mention our fabulous jobs, incomes and lifestyles. It just seems so unfair to be MEAN to you when none of us have suffered any hardship whatsoever. I do apologise.

Right, that's it. I want you all to ignore the poster's life story. Sometimes people who face challenges in life feel the need to share their intimate details with complete strangers, and we should not take advantage of this and use the information to mock and deride, no matter how risible the content.

Sweetie, you need to stop giving ammunition to the MEAN people. You are clearly not using your 'above average' IQ here.

I promise, I will never, ever, spit upon a cripple in the street again. You have brought me to my senses.

Now, now, no swearwords, this is a site for HELPING people, not abusing them. Remember, there's a HELP button right on the Simple Machines Forum template.

Are you implying EA doesn't like us? Why, we have one of their cherished ALPHA_TESTER^TMs posting on this very forum. I think you'll find you're sadly mistaken as to the regard in which we are held.

Oh, Sims Online? Wow, that was so awesome, those were the days. My favourite people on there would have to be the Goreans! The way they subject their women to second class slave status is just so CUTE! Although the B & D scene was a real drawcard too.

Oh don't whine sweetie, it's not a good look, no-one likes a whining cripple. You should be grateful your parents didn't expose you on a hillside - if you'd been born to Pescado's fambly you wouldn't even have been allowed to live, let alone grow to become such a burden to your elderly parents.

ETA: Sorry, had a PM from Sweetie, this wasn't her quote and I got my tags mixed up.
Sorry, I obviously misunderstood your use of the word 'caretaker'.

I think you'll find, if you read through this post, that the discussion about your personal life was, in fact, started and sustained by you.

Oh, well done! Witch gets the crown and a bag of slightly-fuzzy silly bands, and the scorn of all the blue hairs who have been playing Bingo in this hall for years.  :D

witch, you have made me laugh out loud at work. My coworkers think I'm bananas.

And that was the day I fell in love with the Poofs.  <3

Lol, win.
