9 years of simming. An update

On July 22nd I officially got my first copy of The Sims 3. This indicated I started playing The Sims. For the first time ever. Before that, I spent some time simming on my cousin's computer. Now he's 20 & the computer has broken down. I started off with the Sims 2 on his computer. Make some families, move them in & build them a house. I was a newb back then at building houses. I only bought them some objects on an empty lot. I'm doing this update earlier because on the 22nd & 23rd of July I'll be on hiatus.

Some months later I played Sims 2 Life/Pet Stories on an internet cafe. This got me so hooked I'd buy Sims 2. Sims 3 was available for purchase. Waited a few weeks & my mom bought me World Adventures. Then Ambitions. Then Fast Lane Stuff. So on til Into the Future. I did this job with my parents.

When I first played the game I got in touch with a new world. Sunset Valley. It was quite a lovely world for me & the families I liked making. Starting off with 7 to 8 Sims! In a small house... I left them all unemployed. Didn't know the meaning of cheats, but found a helpful YouTube video about cheats & how to activate. This also led me to using the "help" cheat code. How it started with testingcheatsenabled true - it's the only cheat code I love using, as well as motherlode. Also freerealestate, for Sims that are broke & can afford WHATEVER house they want.

Cheats helped me discover new ways of gameplay. Like, set whatever career level I want on Sims, summon NPC's & many more. Mostly teleportation. How to teleport your Sims from one location to another. Also new ways of decorating with the buydebug cheat. You unlock seed/gem spawners, hidden objects, unlockables etc. Most of all, kill my Sims. That was a fun moment because I belonged to THAT kind of players. When you were bored, you had the alternative to either exit or kill a Sim. I did both but most of all kill them. Don't judge it, I wanted to get rid of them LOL

Until one day when I found out my computer got a virus from too much CC off the Exchange. Started a new game, changed a lot of OS's & even cried over my game. Never mind, I was young. My creativity was unleashed from 9 years old. Didn't re-upload other's work, even houses. But made mistakes & uploaded accidentally some pre-mades from EA. Nobody judged. As time went by I became more & more creative. Even without CC but store content.

In 2014 I got so much bored of my game I'd focus on Stardoll. But installed The Sims 4 Create a Sim demo. THIS was the period when I got so creative.

2015 give up The Sims 4. Play Sims 3. Creativity vol. 1. I was 14. 2016 more Sims 3. Creativity vol. 2. I was 15. From January til December 2016. 2017 more Sims 3 until May 10th. My computer ran into a BSOD & posted on some Microsoft forums. Played on a 32-bit OS. Crashes. Someone was demonizing my account on the Forums of The Sims. Read them. Bought a faster laptop & PC. Both 8GB. My game ran fast. The PC was bought in 2018.

From November 2017 to September 2018 MORE creativity was unleashed. Also bought The Sims 4. In The Sims 4 I made my OWN things till now. I don't steal just show off originality. Integrity. Honesty. I don't pretend I'm some kind of EA Game Changer or something, like the ones who deserve so many fav's & DL's. I read descriptions first, then support other players. I am kind. Pretending & reuploading is for the kids. 12 year olds or above or below.

If it's for something I have to combine or fix then I reupload. First state this on the description. Then answer to positive comments. If anyone steals my work I warn them strictly & politely not attack them. I'm an adult almost & I have common sense.

Now I'm currently working on Sims 4 but I unleash my creativity on Sims 3, too! All of my creations are 100% mine. I don't steal from others nor their ideas!

Thank you for understanding!
