		<title>One Year Later</title>
		<context>Time does fly.  I can't believe my last journal entry on MTS2 was almost a year ago to the day.  If you can't find any of my items here, you may find them at my other site.  You can find me at TSR as Rosehill9991.

Not sure if I am going to dabble with Sims 3 creations as of yet.  I've gotten quite...</context>

		<title>The Latest Server Failure</title>
		<context>I had about 20 threads that became corrupted.  I'm pretty sure I corrected them all, and they should be fine.   Please let me know also, if you can't download any of my items.

Thanks to the staff for working hard on fixing the problem.

Thanks

There are 2 or 3 more I would like to do.  I havent decided yet.  They are an unbelievable amount of work. ...</context>

The other night I ate in this restaurant which gave me an idea for another urban setting I would like to recreate.  Its got a different feel and...</context>

		<title>Ok I've Had it with Sims 2</title>
		<context>In the 4 or so years of playing Sims 2, I think the actual play time may boil down to a few hours.  Theres ALWAYS a problem, if its not one glitch its another.  I cant even count how many times Ive had to ditch my game and go to a back up.  For example, how am I supposed to know that saving a lot...</context>

It was really difficult making the terrain mountaineous and also hilly.  Then there was  the landscaping.  That credit goes to the CC creators. ...</context>

		<title>Sims 3 Creators</title>

It will be interesting to see how things go when S3 comes out.  Will all the creators jump ship...</context>

		<title>Will Sims 3 fix The Sims 2 stupidity</title>
		<context>I was looking at the promos and I have to say, it could be very exciting.  But only IF it works as they say it does.  
Basically, they still havent even  solved some of the problems faced in Sims2.  They let the modding Community just handle it for them.  So how can something as complex as Sims 3...</context>

I am most likely going to try something for the Challenge.  Mostly just for the fun of it.  So far I have no idea what I...</context>

I didnt get Pets.  Even though I love animals and have alot of...</context>

If I understand correctly things become picked based on people downloading and other factors, and it's some strange formula.
An item becomes &quot;Featured&quot;  when it is selected by the MTS2 staff.

I think it's great when the mods...</context>
