I tell myself the same thing. Honestly its just as healthy and any other hobby out there in my opion. I.e. reading, needlepoint, Madden, or the next video game. However my friend is a psychologist and feels I need some medical attention (like there's some Simsaddiction Anonymous group or something). She just doesn't understand. I try to tell my friends about how excited I am that So n So Sim is getting married or I'm playin on the phone and I go off because Im trying to garden and Mrs Sim goes into labor. She is like 'Oh My God. Your are taking this thng waay too far.' They just don't understand.

Either way, welcome fellow newcomers! I am glad to finally be amongst my own kind.  ::)

Welcome everyone.

As for the discussion about sims addiction, maybe we should move that to another thread, but I just want to say that playing the sims helped me through a difficult part of a serious mental illness so it is totally a good thing in my mind.

Great idea!  I started a Sims Anonymous topic so we can share our Sims addiction.  Hehe.

Hi! Im new to the forum and am enjoying it. Ive been playing the Sims since Sims 1, now I'm about to get the LN ep tomorrow! I love the Sims because it allows me to build my dreamhouses and imitate the great designs of houses in magazines (I do a lot of Architecture Digest)... then have Sims live in them. For me, that's great! I'll play Sims forever, no other games have engaged me as much. Cheers!

Welcome fellow newcomers!

I hope you enjoy this place as much as I do. I have found myself slowly being addicted to this forum as much as the game. I run them simutaneously.

Just feels like home away from Sunset Valle home.

Hi I'm Chrissie, an almost 60 year old. I've been playing Sims since the first edition and, like many others am rather addicted. I live in the south-west of England and have three grown-up children, all of whom play Sims in various incarnations, and one very new grand-daughter (who will probably play in the future if Granny has any influence!). I came here via a well-known search engine while looking for a guide to my recently bought Sims3 game and this is the most helpful and detailed site I have found, so thank you Carl, Pam and everyone for all the info I have found and made good use of.

There is no absolute truth, but the Forum Rules still come pretty close. Pay them a visit.

I joined a long time ago, but because of personal reasons I stopped playing the Sims. Hence, I haven't logged on in ages. I feel I should reintroduce myself. I played the Sims series since Sims 1 and I love it. Glad to be back to the site!

Hello. New to the forums.

I've been playing the Sims really since the very first one. I love playing the game as a stress reliever (especially when something funny in the game happens). I like to build houses and other buildings as well as just experiment with random things in game. :)
