sims-2 newsgroup question

[Guest]

Archived from groups: alt.games.the-sims (More info?)

Hi, I read somewhere that there was a newsgroup called alt.games.the-sims-2.
I talked our ISP into providing it but there are no posts there. Did I
specify the wrong group? Thanks.

That is the right group, and it does get posts, but not nearly as many as
this one. There are approx. 10-20 new threads here each day and so far,
today I have downloaded 83 messages that have been posted today (84 inc.
this) and 3 posted tomorrow (I think Strider's Clock's wrong). Whereas,
news:alt.games.the-sims-2 gets 2 or three threads a day and 12 posts today.
So you might as well stick here, as many people don't have access to it,
AFAIK, you don't really miss much.

You're right, the clock was wrong. I changed motherboard and had to
use an old image of windows to get it to work.

Thank you, I appreciate your reply and will lurk at both newsgroups,
especially this one. I love to read the news and updates posted and the
funny stories. We Simmers have the most fun, he he. Thanks, again.
