I am so glad to have found this site and happy to meet you all. My Grandkids and their friends call me Video Granny and their friends are always telling me that they wished their Grandma was like me and would play games with them. I recently even got a Wii and oh what fun we have had with that. Nicelo what a wonderful person you are, and to be doing such important work. I really have been so impressed with the younger generation and how they respond to an older simmer like me, most are very open and usually forget that I'm so much older after awhile.
Happy Simming all Smile

BD,

Video Granny! That is awesome. Your grandchildren will love you and remember you forever! I am sure their friends are very jealous they don't have a grandmother like you.

I loved my grandmother dearly because she took the time to play with me. When I was a "kid" I was very much into Lego's. She would build with me and I loved that.

Thank you for your kind words about my job. It is truly rewarding and I am thankful I have a job I enjoy. It only becomes frustrating when the children I teach don't get all the services they need (counseling, speech therapy, etc.). Too much politics in school districts and in the state ed department here in NY ruin it for the students.

BD, your age means nothing. One's spirit and appetite for "fun" transcends chronological age. Today I was at a friend's 40th birthday. The topic of video games came up. Someone mentioned the Sims. I was at a table were I knew no one. I started talking about the Sims and I couldn't shut up! The one "dude" who was about 8 years younger than me started to talk about cheats, game facts, etc. I corrected him on many things. He was SHOCKED to learn a male could get preg with an alien baby! I almost publicly questioned his "Simness" for not knowing that! I then mentally slapped myself and stopped talking because I was getting WAY into the game and people started to have a glazed look on their faces.

Thanks again BD. And to ANYONE on Sky's wonderful forum who feels "awkward" about their age .... DON'T! Age is only an issue when you allow it to be.

Nicelo, its not my forum. Just because I created it, dosnt mean I run it alone. I have a pretty large Admin and Mod staff, and sometimes the users even help me out too. Its basically everybody's forum.

And BD, wow! Your grandkids must be so lucky! I sorta wish you were my grandma. All my Grandma does is watch the news over and over...and over. (The stories keep repeating with the same exact content.)

Thank you Nicelo and Skyfallkavu fro the wonderful compliments, you've made my day Very Happy

. I have had so many good times with my grandkids playing games, I'm always saying that I was born 20 years too early, lol. I would be proud to have a grandchild like you Skyfallavu and Nicelo, I'll be your Granny here on the net. Nicelo, since that fella didn't know about male sims gettting PG by aliens I would have to agree I don't think he was much of a simmer, lol, I always thought I would love to have a club or something around my area so that Simmers could meet say every 6 mths or something and have a get together, that would be so much fun, but I don't run across too many from my area, although I imagine they're around but just don't talk about it. As you can tell I can be a talker, lol. Oh Necelo I too use to love building Lego's with my kids and grandkids.

I grew up playing on an Atari 2600 and a dos computer lol, video games have been in my family for ages ^__^ After that I became the independent computer geek, learned HTML coding when I was 11 and built my first pc in 7th grade.

Legos were awesome, but the newer sets aren't as good. Anyone remember the original Knight's Kingdom sets?

4th grade Skyfallkavu? Wow, my parents wouldn't let me play any T rated games when I was that young, I'm jealous!

Hi everyone, I'm going to go with the flow and introduce myself.

My name is Paul, I'm 24 years old. Can't say where I'm from sorry Sad

the reason for that is like Skyfallkavu, I'm also a pirate, I collect and share anything from games to t.v. shows to movies and software.

I also enoy games like Civilization 3, Doom, Starcraft, Hitman,ect and espicially Sega, I know old school lol

one thing I will admit to is I'm a bit envious of you Skyfallkavu because you apparently know more then me about computers, particularly html coding,ect lol but thats pretty impressive stuff man getting letters from the RIAA at age 13 wow lol.

quick question if you don't mind me asking you Bryan (I hope you don't mind me calling you by your real name) whats the name of the prog you use to block government IPs and where can I find it?

Yeah, I don't care what you call me Very Happy

Sky, or Bryan.

I use Peerguadian 2. http://phoenixlabs.org/pg2/

I usually install every single security list (But not the non-LAN one.) just to be safe. Its worked quite good, and I also only stay on the private tracker I use. I don't use anywhere else. (The first RIAA letter was for downloading a movie from Sharazza, the old program I used. The second one was from downloading a game off of a highly used Bittorrent tracker. I now only use demonoid.)

Oh, the bad thing is with PG2, is that it usually blocks games from connecting to the internet. So turn it off when you want to play something.

EDIT: Oh, and also. I don't know squat about HTML. >_>

Thats cool about using private trackers / torrents and its smart to. One thing I do know about P2P appliciations is that the anti-piracy patrolls go after the uploaders the most. so I don't share on p2p networks,trackers,bittorrents ect. mainly the only downloading I do is via rapidshare.com and megaupload.com, I also upload to those sites on 100% fake accounts with say a name like jack daniels from NY or whatever lol. my only use for a p2p like limewire is music downloading, and the occasial porno haha, also direct downloads IMO are probably the safest, then again I don't trust much anymore with all this anti-piracy crap going on.
