I hope you like these shoes from Growing Together as much as I do. I converted them for your cute little infants. There are 12 Maxis match colours & patterns for your infant sims that are base game compatible. I really hope you enjoy them and please read the TOU before downloading. ♥
i specifically started @thefoxburyinstitute so you people can make your own stuff, share that knowledge with others and not be in some type of hostage situation with some of the worst people here.
something something about teaching a man to fish but i’m making it punk by saying, once you take someone’s power and redistribute that shit, they don’t have power over you.
this is supposed to be a community of nerds just showing off our pixel barbies, showing off the stuff we make for them, and just having fun all around. it shouldn’t be a hierarchy where those at the top continually exploit and punch down.
DISCLAIMER: the sole purpose of this video is to show you and creators that use adfly / short.e what can and most cases will happen when we click on those li...
DISCLAIMER: I do not condone bullying in any shape of form of the creator in question / other creators (that use adlfy) / myself or anyone that responds to this post! All very immature/hateful/hurtful remarks that do not carry on to the conversation will be removed and depending on the severity (threatening someone, etc) of those remarks… I will block you as well. I made this video and post for anyone that uses Adfly/Short.e to shed some light on this returning discussion and most importantly; the alternatives.
After very careful consideration of all the risks I'm taking by making this post I felt a bit obligated to the community, as a fellow creator that also monetizes her CC, to take a stand on this. I will accept any fall out regarding this post. before we continue I’d like to express my gratitude to a group of people who helped me out in lots of ways! <333 English is not my first language so their help has been highly appreciated!
I could not silently stand by anymore while children, grown ups, friends… everyone actually risks to pay lots of money to save their PC’s from destruction for $0,02485 dollars. Per click. I did the math in the highest payout rate, USA.
I made a short video to demonstrate what happened when I clicked on Adfly / short.e links. Best to be watched on Desktop / iPad / bigger screens than phone.
Important to know
I'm on an iMac. This makes it sooo much less bad for me than Windows Users. Also the only reason why I was able to do this without risking my computer. OS X pretty much has an build-in ironclad protection to files shown in the video.
Most of the people in this community are on a PC which makes them so much more vulnerable to all the shit that auto downloads and in some cases installs itself, without you having any say in it, as you can see.
As you can see in the vid; I did not click on the files that started downloading themselves. Know that Windows users are even more at risk(!) since these files (virus exe) can start installing themselves on their own. I have to give my iMac a password to install ANY software. That’s why I wasn’t at risk during the demo’s.
I have to admit that the demo’s in the vid are DEFINITELY not worst case scenarios! Please be mindful of that! I freed up a lot of desktop space as you can see for the endless pop-up ads to appear which ‘unfortunately’ did not occur this time around. In lots cases I get lost in an endless loop of shortners (never arriving at the promised directory) or a massive amounts of pop ups open forcing me to close the shortner window altogether. I cannot even comprehend how much worse it is for Windows users!
Just don't click on the ads! Only stupid / too young / non tech-savvy /old people click on them. If you don’t click on them it’s OK. So it’s a non issue.
These are literal comments I’ve seen recently and in the past regarding this topic. THIS IS NOT TRUE! as you can see I did not click on ANY of the ads unless they required to be closed through the ad ‘close’ section to make sure the timer continues to run. Through the years of development for these ads; most of them require you to click ‘close’ (engage with them) before the countdown of Adfly/Short.e continues to run again. How am I supposed to get to your content if i can't click ‘close’ then?!
Also; the extra tabs that open need to be closed first before the timer starts running again. And when you close them they can auto download a file you didn’t clicked on. In the past they were less aggressive I agree. You could “safely” wait out those 5 sec and get to the designated URL of the CC. In most cases this isn’t an option anymore.
Regarding this post: I’ve said everything I wanted to say about this topic.
I will not engage in endless discussions in the comments. tbh I might not even engage at all since I don’t have anything more/new to say about this.
How the hell am I supposed to get something in return for all that hard work I put into my CC then ?!
I’ll elaborate on the alternatives in this post HERE. This post is already too long.
My babe. 💕 I should be finding out the gender later this month!!! I have a whole separate blog for my pregnancy journey and probably a lot of my journey into motherhood so I’m not spamming my regular blog or this blog. But sometimes it spills over cause LOOK AT MY BABY BUMP.
