I confess that I've never played a family long enough to get to the next generation. I only play each family for a few Sim days and then I go on making a new family. I might revisit old families from time to time and play a few more Sim days but never long enough to see them age.

I enjoy the creation of a family and the building and decorating of a house way more than playing the game itself.

Oh and I have 15,796 custom objects in my Downloads folder. That's 5.96 GB. And yes I always play with all of it. Sure, it takes about 10-15 minutes to start up the game but I can never decide what stuff to be without so I just go with it.

I confess I enjoy being the almighty goddess of my sims. :D

I've never had more than, say, 900MB of CC, partly because my laptop would have exploded, and partly because I'm REALLY impatient.

Because I might just want to reinstall it one day, so I need the content just in case! The only reason I don't have Sims original and TS2 still installed is lack of time, I had a new hard drive and haven't reinstalled them yet. But I will!

That, plus I'm an obsessive hoarder ...

The most fun to play was Sims 1 I think, but I had a blast building neighbourhoods for Sims 2 and now worlds for Sims 3. :D

Yeah, TS1 was fun. I'm totally sentimental about it. Still remember with nostalgia when Unleashed first got out, and I discovered that there are critters ruining my cat lady's garden. Of course, she had all those cats that hunted them down.
TS2 Pets gave us cats, but alas no mice. I don't really see a point in having a cat if that cat has nothing to hunt! I expected the mice and moles to spawn in tomatoes when Seasons came out, but no such luck. Poor kitties. Contrary to popular belief, cats are creatures that enjoy being useful to their humans/Sims.

Imagine how cool it would have been if there were mice in TS2, and then cats catching them and giving them as gifts to their owners, and then those lucky Sims stocking their fridges with them. Oh joy!

So I must confess: there *are* some things I don't like about TS2, the lack of aforementioned mice being just one among them.
There it is. I said it. I won't say it again.

I think I'm going to have to delete this post eventually. I can't believe I just confessed something like *that*...
And TS3 still sucks!

The trouble with the mice was, you only got them if you had cats. And the mouse corpses would draw bugs, which turned into mice, so unless you were obsessive about noticing and cleaning up every time your cat hunted (and they could leave those mouse heads in some pretty hard-to-see places), you were soon overrun and had to get a second cat and the maid just to have any hope of keeping up. Whereas the catless slob next door would have roaches everywhere and never a sign of mouse.

I agree they should have given us mice and gophers and bunnyrabbits, as long as they didn't do them exactly the same way. If mice showed up in messy houses and you could get rid of them with the exterminator or setting traps, but stray cats would hunt them if encouraged - well, that'd be a great way to adopt a stray cat, wouldn't it? It's always been way too hard to adopt strays, IMHO. It's the easiest thing in the world IRL. I have to make repeated will saves to keep from doing it two or three times a year.

So I thought I was doing pretty good having not downloaded but a few things the past few weeks. After revamping my downloads folder and snagging a bunch of default replacements for most the clothes and hair in the Maxis catalog I felt that I was pretty happy with what I had and wasn't looking to download too much more. Famous last words as I then discovered this thread: http://www.digitalperversion.net/ga...p?topic=23645.0.

Now of course I have to decide what to give up in order to download a bunch of this stuff since I'm pretty much at my folder maximum limit. I really am a CC addict.

I was playing TS1 a few weeks ago. I admit, I loved the gameplay and the detailed objects. What I hated were the crappy graphics. I want TS1 with TS3 graphics! Is that too much to ask?

I'm not even counting the mods and build/buy items.

I scoff at your 101 MB and throw my 367 MBs on the table Good luck with the recovery,though!

Dammit. I just had to go look!

My confession is that I often download entire living room, bedroom, kitchen sets just for the small 1 or 2 clutter items. I trash the rest of the furniture. I wish creators would offer stuff in single files more often.

Why did this thread turn into a "Brag about how much CC I have" thread? Don't we already have a thread for that? (http://www.modthesims.info/showthread.php?t=334968)

Oh, I'm gonna brag! Just yesterday I deleted more than 20 clothes recolors from my game! I'm on my way to recovery! I think I should be handed a merit badge for this. Like they do in AA clubs.

Funny, I spent hours deciding what to delete, when the whole point was to save on loading times, and that only takes about 10 minutes in my game. And the puny number of actual deletes... No merit badge for me, I guess.

But here's a llama as a consolation prize. At least I haven't downloaded one of those. Never. I swear. Not yet anyway. And I won't!


PS. Does uber-megahood count as CC? Because I haven't - nor will I ever! - download *that*!

5.36 GB with 17,756 files..yikes. My game takes five minutes to load. It's so nice to have a super fast PC. My last PC had that many and took like 20 minutes to load.

Because people like bragging about their download addictions, Mootilda.

To get back to the juicy confessions:
Even though I am dedicated to one-day rotations and have good solid reasons for it and will never change, when it's time to leave certain households I keep finding excuses not to get out of the house. I can have the Munny home on pause and saved a long, long time as I go around checking this and looking at that and periodically coming back around to Ernest and Sage Ann snuggled up in bed with those relaxed smiles on their faces...I'm like a parent who can't stop tucking the kids in.

I did type in the most embarrassing sims confession ever - and then I deleted it. Some things y'all don't really want to know.

Naw; now you'd be disappointed if I told you! 'Cause once you've wondered: "Okay, what would be so embarrassing that a person who brags about the amorous prowess of her elders decides not to air it to the world?" you'll start thinking of wilder things than would ever occur to me. And other people's embarrassments generally look silly and trivial, don't you find?
