Things We've Learned From The BBS

(1/27) > >>

Syera:
As we all know, the BBS is home to a wealth of information, just waiting for anyone brazen/thickheaded/naive of better places enough to look.

So, what have we all learned from the BBS?  I'll start off...


-Any problem can be fixed by doing the following:
--Installing an updated video driver.
--Deleting all your custom content.
--Reinstalling the game and starting over from scratch.

-If all else fails, download a video card!  Er, as soon as you find out from the BBSers who are so much brighter than you where you can download one of these all-powerful items.

-Hacks and mods are evil.  And yes, they are out to get you, having been specially made to make your computer explode.
--The first thing you should do if you even SUSPECT you have a hack is reinstall the game.

-No doubt about it, a hack has a greater chance of making your game explode than does the latest expansion pack.  Even though, ironically, more people seem to gripe about the latest expansion pack making their game explode than do people gripe about hacks doing this.

-Meshes are also evil.  Especially if you don't know what they are.

-Any custom content that doesn't have Maxis' seal of approval emblazoned across it is evil, too, and will cause your game to explode.
--Of course, the only way to deal with THIS is to re-install your game.

Any problem can be solved by pointing and laughing?

Will not reinstall game unless there is no other option to do so espesilly if the HD was formatted because it wasnt working or had a major break down. Boy are some people stupid and they dont know what they are talking about. As for hacks most of them are useful and fix problems with in the game that Maxis have not or no Idea about.

-If you're asking for assistiance, the proper way to title your thread is "HEEEEEEEELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLP MEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!"  After all, it gets a Maxoid's attention every time.

-Benes are like fishing bait.  If you dangle them on a hook, you get a lot of juicy suckers.

-The real Bella Goth is in a galaxy far, far away with her alien lover.  Er, no, she's been murdered and you can see her if you meditate in front of her painting.  No!  She's a burglar and she'll appear if you buy the...

-Although the fact that expansion packs come out six months apart on the dot, there is a strange time-distortional effect that actually makes it so that each expansion pack takes noticably longer than the last to be released.
--Of course, anyone with actual brains will tell you that it's the whining 13-year-olds who created this time-distortion in the first place...
