Circumstances have revealed, as they have an unfortunate habit of doing, that this is my userpage, and more importantly, that I am expected to write some form of monologue or eulogy herein; this being a custom, I am told, which has developed among Wiki users since the
founding of Wikipedia in 2001; and I being, as is proclaimed by the embarrassingly large title at the top of this section, which should properly be called a Userpage (properly being the operative word, and I not wishing; or at least condescending; to be proper, being in charge of this site, and therefore not being required to follow the policies and rules of this Wiki in so far as I consider them excessively unprofitable), a user - user here having the meaning of a registered contributor to the site; or at least registered, since one can be registered without contributing; or indeed contribute without being registered - of such a Wiki, and therefore being subject to the customs, traditions, and other such impracticalites, of said Wikis (in so far as I am not able to pass them off as excessively impractical); and as when something has been revealed by circumstances it is very difficult to avoid without removing said circumstances entirely; and as removing said circumstances might, I fear, be too arduous a task to contemplate; I will proceed to do so in the space below, if one can be justified in calling it a space, it being a collection of binary data residing on a hard drive somewhere in the Netherlands; and not being a space regardless of the aforementioned flaw in its criteria, since it only comes into existence when something is placed in it (if indeed it is possible to type something into a space which does not exist - one can but assume it must be since I am performing said dubious action even as I write; this being the space in question, and I being in the process of typing something into it) and therefore it, or at least the parts of it which have not yet been typed in (which, I might add, are growing smaller every second; if it is possible for something which does not exist to grow smaller), being not currently in existence.

[edit] About Me
- I created this site because I feel that the Sims 2 isn't just a game, it's a way of life. Sure, there are hundreds of other Sims 2 fansites out there, but this one is different. It gives you the opportunity to tell the world how you feel, and to show off your creations. Everyone deserves a chance to share their knowledge, and everyone deserves access to other people's.
- I play The Sims 2 because I've loved The Sims series ever since The Sims 1 came out all those years ago. I love the versatility, and especially the fact that when you get bored of the game's built in content there's millions of downloads out there which you can easily add to your game.
- I first got into computers when I was about 3, and I went to my auntie's office where she worked as principal of a college. I was fascinated by the grey box in the corner of the room, although I was a little puzzled that all it seemed to be able to do was shout "Bad command or filename" at you, at seemingly random intervals. My next experience with a computer was a little more productive; another auntie gave us an old Windows computer, and I gradually discovered the joys of MS Paint. A few years later we moved house, and an uncle kindly built us a new computer, this time with Windows 98 and a host of other software. This time I began exploring in earnest, and found out for the first time about things like processors and hard drives. Before long I knew almost everything there was to know about Windows 98 (although I was dissapointed by the lack of internet access, which I had decided must exist due to the frequent refernces to it in the help files) - and before much longer I had broken it. The uncle who had provided it was unable to fix it (I must have broken it pretty bad), and kindly built us a replacement. It was a dinky little thing in a Shuttle XPC case, and I loved it. Since we didn't have TV, it was awesome being able to watch DVD's on it, and it had Windows 2000, which opened up hundreds of possibilities for exploration. I found out about computer games, and by then my computer skills were good enough to buy and install a new graphics card to enable me to play The Sims 2 (which my brother bought). Since then I've bought two new computers (a Dell Dimension 5150, 1GB RAM, 3.2GHz, 80GB, now adopted by my parents, and an Inspiron 1501), and persuaded my parents to get broadband internet. I've picked up almost all my computer knowledge by reading and experimenting, and I've had to reinstall Windows several times... I've recently started delving in Linux, although since I'm now going back to school, I won't have so much time.
- I first realised I was better at ICT than my teacher when he asked me how to do a page break in MS Word. I always finished my work about half an hour before everyone else, and he used to let me play pinball on his laptop for the rest of the lesson. Until I hacked the higscore list and 'beat' his top score. Oddly enough, he never let me play again after that. He just told me to go and help other people - that meant he never had to do any work and he didn't have to get embarassed when he didn't know the answer to someone's question.
- I like playing around with computers, especially really old ones; writing websites; dissing Macs; and eating.
- I don't like when my computer breaks; junk email; mayonnaise; Steve Jobs; iPods; and much more.
- My favourite quote is too long to put on this page.
