Is PaysitesMustBeDestroyed.org been closed down?
Hi everyone, I tried logging on to the site and it said the connection timed out. Anyone else having this problem??

Still alive and kicking - they just changed the web address. They do that sometimes.

Working for me.

I no longer come over to MTS very often but if you would like to ask me a question then you can find me on tumblr or my own site tflc. TFLC has an archive of all my CC downloads.

the booty hasn't updated the sims two pages in YEARS. Does anyone know why?

Pescado and the other guys that run and update Booty have left TS2 and onto "greener" pastures.

Or, more likely, there are no new TS2 paysites.

Does anyone know what happened to Pescado? Is he still modding? Even the TS3 and TS4 threads on MATY are super inactive, I feel like.

I don't think he's modding anymore. But his TS2 mods worked well for me.

Not-so-daily TS2 downloads @ my simblr.

Thank you guys! I actually did not know that The Sims Resource used to be a pay site! When did that happen?

Up until a few months ago, but please, don't bother paying for their VIP membership. Surely they have enough money with their ads revenue too. Adblock them if you can, even if it means waiting a whole minute for something to download.

I only turn my adblock off/donate for sites I really want to support (like MTS and Manyland)

They probably don't have enough money with their ads revenue if everyone is using Adblock lol.

From what I've gathered from visiting MATY Pescado hasn't even bothered to get Sims 4 (I can't blame him). So he's probably burning out.

After x amount of times of getting that stupid 1 minute message that I can't flip past, I'm even more inclined to keep my adblocker on just to spite them.

I can find something to do for one minute. Fold laundry, meditate, play Sims Free Play. Something.

Another thing concerning the Booty is that many, if not most, of those items were either direct donations from other members or donations to certain people to get the items through their accounts on the paysite. As far as I know, people didn't launch a major hacking effort on paysites to get all this stuff! Most of the time, even locating the forum can be challenging now (sometimes, it's down), and looking at it, the last flurry of activity was years ago. In addition, I don't even know if any admins are still active there; not even occasionally. So I doubt many donors are there, either.

My memory might be faulty, but I believe a classic retort to someone who wanted a pay item from XYZpaysite was often, "Then YOU buy it and share it here!" One did not make a request at that forum, and it usually indicated the person was totally clueless as to the workings of the forum.

Since then, other sites kind of ... err ... quietly slip pay meshes in their downloads now and again, Not too often anymore, now that Sims 2 content on TSR is free, many of the more-desired meshes are already in the Booty, many more free creators make their own meshes via more-improved programs, Sims 2 is not as popular anymore, and many paysites have closed along with the free ones. But every once in a very, very long while, it happens. PMBD at least got the ball rolling, and got it rolling with a vengeance. And I thank Pescado for that.

Thanks to ALL free-site creators, admins and mods.

RIP Sunni ... truly a ray of light.

I was just on there this morning. They are posting updates almost daily. The site is now: simscave.mustbedestroyed.org. You'll want to click on "forum" and then TS2 Updates.

Not the same. Both are associated with Pescado in some way, but the Booty is/was dedicated strictly to paysites. While SimsCave has included some paysite items in the past, that is not the focus of the site.

Thanks to ALL free-site creators, admins and mods.

I'm sorry Pescado has moved on. His contributions to sims 2 and my own personal enjoyment of it are enormous.

Not sure if he's moved on - The last post I saw on maty he said "he hadn't ruled out Sims 4 yet" but wasn't modding it for some reason. (I don't think he's got it because he doesn't like origin) With Sims 2, he modded only for his own satisfaction, so that's why the mods plays the way he prefer's them too. As far as I understand he finished modding for sims 2 because the game was fixed to his satisfaction, then he went over to sims 3 and did the same.

ah, that makes sense. Somehow I had it in my head that he didn't really play the game, he just liked to mod.

I have adblock on for the sims resource up until the thank you for downloading page, that way I still get the download in 10 seconds :3
