I thought I'd do my part to spread the word to anyone who might be wondering about Garden of Shadows, and why it's not working. It seems TSR made a legal complaint to GoS's web host about them redistributing their supposedly "copyrighted content." There are more details here on [livejournal.com profile] nymphynymms journal. (ETA: And also on Jenfold's dreamwidth journal.)

Thank you to [livejournal.com profile] simgaroop for bringing this to my attention. I'm a big fan of Garden of Shadows, even though I mostly lurk. They continue to create quality content for Sims 2, even though most other cc sites gave up the ghost a long time ago. I was thoroughly enjoying the Earth Day monthly theme, and I'm saddened that this messes with their next monthly theme right around that exciting time when the new theme is decided and announced (which theme won? Does anyone know? I was just going to go check). Way to ruin everyone's fun, TSR. Bunch of dicks.

Oh, you have got to be kidding me, considering TSR uses other people's "copyrighted" material all the time, including that of other creator's and EA, and has the audacity to charge for it.

We won't even get into some of their other questionable activities.

The part that gets me is how they figure there's any overlap in consumers of TSR content and the folks who frequent GoS. Do they actually think we'd go directly to TSR to buy the stuff if GoS didn't exist? *stifles laughter* I can't imagine they're actually losing any potential customers this way.

Yeah, the less said about them, the better. I try not to think about them at all most of the time.
