Hi everyone! As you may or may not be aware, I am having some... technical problems.

I store everything sims-related (pictures, word documents of chapters, outlines/planning) on an external hard drive. I am also stupid and didn't back it up ANYWHERE. About a week ago the external hard drive stopped working. It is at the doctor right now and I have ( Read more... )

Technology ... why do we even bother with it anymore ? We'd be better off with papyrus and a feather-pen ...

Well, I've been there and done that, as you know because I'm king of the lost and never found club, you should collect a membership card or something :P. It sounds terrible though but I totally understand what you mean by summarizing it because I know how it feels to take hundreds of pictures and write our pages of stuff only to have it gone and the feeling that you have to do it again is so bad ... And the fact that it doesn't feel the same the second time, too.

I'm sorry to hear that you could lose everything, especially the personal stuff and I hope that your hard drive starts working again and you get everything back :).

At least if you don't manage to get it fixed, you have the solution already premeditated and nobody is going to mind much because it's out of your control :).

No kidding xD And actually, that'd be so much more fun, lol!

I want to join! Actually, that's a sad club to belong to! But... yeah, I do know that about you xD I'm sorry, too! It sucks :/ I really don't want to do it all over, and yeah, not the same. :(

Thanks though :3 I'm really hoping it will all come back to me, but like you said, if it doesn't, I'm mentally prepared lol. And I'm already tired of Reagan's plotline to be quite honest haha, so it'd almost be nice to just get on with it. Then again, I'll really miss my personal stuff and all my sims pictures if they are gone forever :P

But yep! Out of my hands. Can't do anything at this point. So I'm coming to terms with that xD

Thanks for your kind words :)

Personally, I don't really mind, as long as you are fine and your game works. Obviously I would rather read the couple of chapters you already did, because I bet they would be great. But like I said before, the Attwoods will still continue, which is all good.

Wish you luck, and hopefully you'll get the better news, but hey most of us (apart from the very lucky ones xD!) know what it's like when this kinda stuff happens, so yeah, don't worry :D!

Glad to hear that :3 I did like those few chapters that might potentially be missed out on, but I don't think it'll be the end of the world if we don't get to see them. Thanks <3

And yeah, I feel like this has to happen before people realize they need to take better care of their stuff. I know it was a wake up call for me! Hopefully this will never happen again... It's too bad it has to happen to most people xD Thank you!
