By the by, bairy, are you the geezer from Brum in the UK? If so, which bit? I live in Acocks Green.

Mendota:
I stand corrected on the creation of the objects tool. I actually thought Quaxi, and dizzy two were a part of MTS. With so many migrations it is hard to keep track. I certainly do not want to rob anyone of well deserved credit. Whenever I go to Sims Resource, the tool used to create objects was sited as coming from MTS. They may have changed that now. :-\

bairy:
laeshanin,
Yes, South Birmingham.

Mendota,
I'm assuming you mean the CEP. I'm not fully aware of how everything on that subject works. So far as I know, full credit has been given but I might be wrong. I really don't want to get into it here because I don't have the full story, and this topic is about MTS2 as a whole :)

nectere:
oh yeah. Because apparently now you have to be really really really careful about crediting who made what and how, when, where, why and if your cat helped and the tools you used and the idea you got from some random post somewhere...and heaven help you if anyone finds out you didnt credit the whole freaking universe for allowing you to live in the first place. ::) It makes me so glad I am not the sharing type.

Motoki:
There was a big hullabaloo when CEP and such first came out because TSR was crediting MTS2. Some people thought the individual modders and not the site should get the credit. I know Inge was really big on this. At the time, I didn't think it was such a big deal. MTS2 was A LOT smaller, had a lot more of a savvy, respectful and intelligent (if not always the nicest ;) ) crowd and it was more or less like a small community of modders all helping each other to figure things out. In retrospect, I now have to side with Inge on this. Since there has been a mass exodus of talent from MTS2 and most of the old timers have been replaced with BBS refugees whose contributions include "First!" posts (not to mention a lot of behind the scenes drama that has gone on at MTS2 of which I will spare everyone the details.  :P ) it's probably better to credit the individuals as most have since moved onto other sites.

While I do think the Sims community it rather overzealous and ridiculous with the whole 'rights' issue and it's a game and we should share and be happy, I think when pay sites were brought into the mix and profiting from tools and discoveries that others made it's only fair to at least acknowledge those people.

At any rate, TSR pretty much credits Quaxi, Numenor, RGiles etc individually now and it's been that way for months.
