I'm proud to say the whole family were big on Sims 2-4 and we pirated every single version and all expansion packs as children. It was a gateway drug to more pirating in the future. Those are the real, open, and welcoming community.

Haha. I gave up on the first Sims because no one was putting up expansion packs to pirate and I sure as fuck wasn't going to pay for them, so I got bored and quit and never came back to that game series.

Also I think there are a couple of copies of the first 2 sims floating around where you get robbed daily and the mailman hates you as an antipiracy measure.
