ALRIGHT, SIMBLR RANGER

ITS TIME FOR ANOTHER DRAFT LESSON WITH PROFESSOR TERABOTS IN THE HOUSE

TODAY’S LESSON: ASKS

now that you have PROPERLY entered the simblr community ( with half a hundred followers and a compliment ask to show) i think it’s about time we get into more detail about asks and wcifs and things of the like.

first off, lets start with tags:

every ask you get has to be tagged with #ask and the user’s url, for instance, #pokemyplumbob or if theyre anonymous, #anonymous or #anon or #nonny (whatever you want to call your anons)

if theyre a WCIF, they need to be tagged accordingly

if theyre any form of HELP asks (help asks are different from WCIFs) for example: “hi, can you tell me how you edit your photos?” “hello, how do i do this sort of thing in my game?” etc, then you would tag it as #help AND NOT #wcif

got it? got it.

secondly, lets get on with language:

alot of simblrs are somewhat sort of rude to their askers, for some odd reason. there is NO reason for you to be rude to a #wcif or #help ask UNLESS:

what theyre asking you is on a FAQ page that you practically urged everyone to read (in this case, you would just link them to the faq page instead of yelling at them lmaooo)

they were being rude to you first 

its something that they could easily find in your other wcifs, help asks, or resources page (again, you could just link them to it instead of yelling at them)

thats it. if none of these apply to the asker, and you’re being rude, im just gonna assume that you’re doing it for attention. so, just no.

and lastly:

TRY NOT TO DO ANYTHING STUPID THAT WOULD END YOU UP IN A NEGATIVE SIMSECRET POST

thats including being stupidly bitchy to your askers :)

PS. HEY GUYS, Dashes here. This is the 3red and final helpful tutorial that terabots made for me in my drafts 6 years ago. Parts 1 and 2 are both on my blog below this one. Check them out!

selamat datang kembali Hari Setu Pon, bersama Kuprit mari mlaku alon-alon, . Kali ini Kuprit menelaah Flashdisk, Konon pencipta pertamanya Dr Fujio Masuoka, di tahun 1980an. Namun produsen pertama Flashdisk adalah IBM di tahun 2000, dengan produk perdana flashdisk berkapasitas 8MB . di Tahun 2015, Kingston sudah dapat membuat Flashdisk berkapasitas 2 Terabyte, menjadi kapasitas yang Terabot yang pernah disimpan . Dengan bentuknya yang ramping, flashdisk menjadi peralatan yang praktis, mudah dibawa kemana-mana dan mudah ketlisut. . Pesan kuprit, kata-kata indah berkilo-kilobait itu jangan disimpan di flashdisk, simpan di heartdisk aja . Semoga Mengharukan . <<< swipe Mana yang boneka ? . #bonekakarakter #bonekafoto #bikinbineka #custombonekasatuan #bonekacustom #customdoll #anakpatungcustom #idekado #kadoultahunik #kuprit #legendaSiKuprit #komikjawa #webtoonIndonesia (at Boneka Custom Satuan) https://www.instagram.com/p/CUyU6kkhBR-/?utm_medium=tumblr

A nice big new batch of townies for Brightmaple! Featuring Sims by myself, @plumbobfactory, @terabots and Anna.

[scottishly]

Some of the people Octavia managed to befriend along the way - a very unimpressed teenage Anais (by @terabots) and the gaming hobby leader guy, who is cute as a button.

[sterina-sims]

Made new icons for my hoods.

At this point, Primborough has been abandoned. I accidentally opened the hood and forgot that I had taken out my cc folder so all my hard work (trees, buildings, hood deco) was gone. *sigh*

Taeyeon (by @terabots) is soo beautiful omg! *tears of joy* And it will be some sort of “tudor-inspired” paradise (if I ever get around to doing it lol). 

And lastly is Pinegrove Valley (version 4.0 haha) which I absolutely adore but don’t feel inspired to play it, especially since I’m so into my ISBI right now. So I plan to release it soon (for anyone who wants a nice, clean and empty hood).

10 Questions Meme

I’ve been tagged in several meme things over the past couple of weeks (during my bouts of inactivity) - so I’m sorry for not doing them! I do love participating in memes and seeing what other people come up with, but I haven’t been on my computer lately and tumblr on mobile is a nightmare. So thank you to anyone who’s tagged me in something recently (or not-so-recently) - I appreciate being thought of, and maybe I’ll go back and participate in them! ...eventually. :D 

I happened to be at my computer reading @didilysims BaCC from the very beginning (which I’ve been meaning to do for awhile now <3) when @deedee-sims tagged me in a meme, so here goes! :)

(under a cut because god forbid I give a succinct answer for ANYTHING) 

Rules: Answer ten questions, come up with ten questions, tag ten people! 

1. Which Sims game was the very first you played?

TS1! TS1 forever, baby. I remember visiting my cousins in Virginia one summer when I was around ten or eleven years old. My cousins were all slightly older than I was, and wanted to do “cool” teenage things that I wasn’t interested in (probably going to the mall or something), so they let me hang out at home playing around on the computer. One of them introduced me to The Sims, and I remember building a MASSIVE box house with nowhere near enough windows to illuminate the interior, and I made 8 Sims named after the Weasleys and moved them in. :P It didn’t take long for me to become obsessed, and I remember asking my parents to get me the game as soon as we got back. I guess you could say the rest is history? :)

I continued to play TS1 for a few years after TS2 came out (because I had a shitty old computer that couldn’t handle TS2). I don’t think I got TS2 until late 2006, so yeah, the TS1 is strong with this one. :P

2. What other games you play besides the Sims?

Not many. My last big game obsession was Stardew Valley (which I’ve been itching to get back to, truth be told). Otherwise I tend to play casual games on my Nintendo 3DS, like Animal Crossing or Pokemon. Just something that’s easy to pick up once in awhile when I don’t have the time or energy to sit at the computer. :) I try to get at least one version from every Pokemon generation although I couldn’t tell you the last time I finished one. I get sidetracked with training and breeding, etc. :P

3. Who is your favorite premade Sim?

I’m going to defer this question since I haven’t played with premades in so long I really can’t choose. :P Reading other people’s stories (looking at you @yakumtsaki) and BaCCs (I love what @didilysims has done by taking several premade uni students and starting a new neighborhood with them) has made me want to play with them more, though! 

4. Custom objects or custom CAS stuff?

Both! Well, I go through phases. (Although I have more than enough of each, so I should definitely cut back...) Lately I’ve been more about CAS stuff, mainly because I’m still in the middle of defaulting things, so I’m always on the hunt for clothes I like enough to default. :) I’ve been on a hair retexturing kick too, so I’ve been raiding the hair database. 

5. One thing that you miss from the game, and hope it’ll be modded into it sooner or later?

It’s not possible, but I wish TS2 had custom body sliders. (Although we’ve said “it’s not possible” about a lot of things in the past, and look what our modding community has done. :P) And I think someone else mentioned this already, but separate shoes in CAS/Bodyshop! 

Gameplay-wise, hmmm. I’m pretty content with what we have in TS2 so far (and what our modders have been able to fix). It’d be nice to have some sort of fix (if that’s even the right word?) for playing high-rise buildings/apartments, though. We have the light-up buildings and street deco, the only thing I need to create my urban paradise is the ability to play a swanky penthouse apartment without the in-game camera driving me crazy! 

6. Have you ever killed a sim on purpose?

Yes, although I haven’t done it “for fun” since my TS1 days. (Ahhh, the nostalgia of building a small room with no doors and letting my Sim set off fireworks inside.) The most recent time I did it was a few years ago, before I learned how to create a truly clean custom neighborhood. There was a mysterious mass-murder of all the premade townies on an empty lot with a lone Sim living on it, who became the town pariah and never interacted with any other residents, just had the memories of all the townies perishing... D: Oops!

7.  A cc making skill you would like to learn?

So many! I’d love to figure out 3t2/4t2 conversions, but my more immediate goal is to learn how to shoeswap. :) Also, I know how to make default replacements and do them for outfits all the time, but I’ve never successfully done it with hair (so. many. groups.), so I’d like to revisit that eventually too. :)

8. Do you like playing businesses?

I actually haven’t played them all that much, but I’m starting to get the hang of it! They are a lot of fun, and I like the idea of a Sim running their business, and the player is able to “go to work” with them and have a hand in helping them become successful. Sometimes it feels cheaty to have them work through the regular in-game career paths, even though it’s not really. :P 

9. Have you ever played a challenge?

Attempted? Yes. Completed? No. :P I’ve had quite a few legacies that I abandoned after a solitary generation. Sycamore Cove is the closest thing I have to a BaCC, although I don’t play by any rules. I guess it’s a challenge in that I’m still playing it after several years without getting bored, so yay!

10. How are you?

Doing well today, thank you! Can’t ask for anything more than a quiet day off to play TS2 and watch Netflix. :D

I’m going to take the SUPER LAZY way out and keep DeeDee’s questions instead of coming up with my own (I really liked them and the fact that they’re Sims-related!). Tagging @biffysims, @yakumtsaki, @knightsims, @terabots, @ofgodsandllamas, @lilithpleasant, @dirk-dreamer, @holesoulsims, @keoni-chan, @julessims, and anyone else who wants to do it! No pressure, sorry if you’ve been tagged already, etc. <3

[greatcheesecakepersona]

I really should start working on this again. Haven’t really done much since I started my work education. But at least I now have a terrain to test and take nice pictures. This is beautiful Taeyeon by @terabots! :)

[gingers-sims]

Where did you find the signs for the vegetable garden please?

Unfortunately I don’t know :( I’ve just reblogged pic with those signs from @terabots so u should ask her. Sorry I couldn’t help :( 

[scottishly]

hi! your townies in your recent post are so cute! could you be so kind to wcif the pink and blue haired townies? :)

Hello, Nonny! I’m really happy you like them :)I think you mean the sims themselves and not what they’re wearing (do correct me if I got it wrong) so here goes: the pink haired Anais is a sim by Terabots, I only aged her down to a teen - you can grab the original here. As for the blue haired hobby leader, his name is Nicholas and I’ve uploaded him for you here :)

Replies

@terabots / mmxci replied to your photoset

TBH YOU SHOULD RELEASE DECORATED HOODS

I’ve actually considered releasing that neighborhood. I have no idea what I want to do with it, so I just open it and staaaaareee ahahaha. 

And these days, I am more invested in my ISBI challenge. So yeah, I will probably do it. Someone might as well enjoy it!!  :)

@kayleigh-83 replied to your photoset “Sierra gives birth to a baby girl, Reva Medjugorac! She has her...”

Omg a born in game redhead, I can only dream!! Lol all my sims are brunettes or have black hair hahah it's gotten to the point where I'm giving preference to potential mates with red or blonde hair to mix it up hahah

Well do you have this mod in game?.. Otherwise, it’s time for new batch of blond and redheaded townies :)

kayleigh-83 replied to your photoset “Gomez found this adorable cat in their backyard, and had to adopt him!...”

I always find it sooo hard to adopt strays! I obsessively try and build up the relationship high enough in one sitting to adopt, but when I'm kinda close the animal always decides to autonomously bugger off and I never see them on the lot again!

I’ve lost count of how many times that has happened to me! It’s a 50/50 chance, honestly. I just cross my fingers and hope my sims will able to adopt their furry friend. Got lucky this time around, haha.

Handwriting Tag

Having been tagged by @novellam-under-the-stars, I guess I can’t just tag her back, so instead I’ll go with @simsllama, @mackieblr and @kahlofreak/@lucyburb because I’ve talked to them not too long ago. And @terabots aka tersnots who tagged me the last time this tag was going around (with different questions of course).  Also here’s a link to @blackcatsims’ Newtown Shire and here’s the tag of my beloved Plantsim Xander. Oh, and here is a sample of my handwriting backwards.
