My real life name is Amber, but I've been going by bored, bored1, or something similar for so long that if someone says they are bored, I immediately want to say "nope, I am"
I started following this guide and forum last year, doing the challenges on my own time to try something different. I never remembered to sign up and pm Metro in time to join in. This year I decided to sign up and get on board at the start.
I have a similar user name on the TS3 site. I have been a serious sims addict for about 5-6 years.
I picked this sn 11 years ago for a game site and have just kept it. I get asked a lot "why are you bored?" or "if you are so bored, why don't you do something else?". My response is the same: "because addicted_one doesn't sound quite right"
