Back in my day events were full of Tic Tac Toe games and everyone used to go to them and get extra coinz!

EDIT: MAX ME!

Indeed! the good ole days!

Go home Rodd, your making us all feel old.

I remember when Parties category was for parties and dont for selling. And making good events just for the rate up lol

Remember back when we had that neat little tool that allowed us to know how many players were in our house? I would be walking around town and see that there were 2, sometimes even 3 or 4 players checking out my house and rating it. Shows just how much the game has changed, now no one even thinks about visiting other people's homes.

Back then, many people loved to decorate, today many more prefer to dress up. We all dressed in starter clothing, and did not judge each other for wearing it, simply because it was probably the only thing we could wear, all of the clothing and furniture in stores were cheap.

People helped each other a lot, but today the game is turned into a competition of buying and selling, making investments, and for what? To make even more investments? Now much of what I see in the game, is a bunch of people showing off their virtual wealth.

Lots of fun back in the day...I would stay up all night waiting for new theme release..
Parties were unlimited. Peeps respected other peeps..Ahh the good ole days

Back in the day the selection of free gifts didn't change very often so you would receive 100's of the same item. I read a suggestion in the forums and used to go to the real estate office, go into any house pull my extra stuff from my inventory and slide it off into the darkness at the sides. Hundreds of pumpkin pie slices and chocolate rolls made their way into the darkness.

Those were the days....................!

ohhhhhhh! I never knew about that! What fun! I just gift bombed people to get rid of the extras..

And I would get gift bombed in retaliation *snort!* Man the time we would spend bombing the living heck outta each other with freebies!

And we used to gift bomb the ninjas on the forum.. That was fun.. ohhhh they would get irritated!

Remember when you had to eat to keep going? And the beach was a beach? People used to hang out in the furniture store. We'd sit on the couches and chairs....have a chat.

Those were the.......days.........

The game changed and made people greedy.

I remember when we would only get releases every 2 weeks. We'd all stay up until midnight(Zynga time) and once the clock hit midnight, we would all refresh and run to the stores lol. Good times.

i remember the days when getting maxed for the first few times made me blush....

and then feeling so grateful i'd thank them profusely, max them back, and max 10 others (paying it forward?)
