No, it wasn't just for that, but the fact that it was created on LiveJournal gives me the impression it was intended primarily for LiveJournal users, regardless of what the content is. I do think (obviously) those secrets have a place, but there are more secrets to be had out here in internet land. If you find some of the good ones, they can be disturbingly funny and addictive. If you don't get the hype about a legacy, go read a few. Post by: aeiouna on May 26, 2008, 12:19:46 AMĮTA: I'm not really talking shit about Legacies or the other things that are popular on LJ. Until then, well, expect to see mainly LJ related secrets. Once word spreads, then yes, more secrets about things other than LJ related things will, most likely, get posted. So it's to be expected that, yes, most secrets will be about LJ related things, until the Comm becomes more well known. That's just what's been happening, as the Comm isn't that well known yet. I do think (obviously, yes it is LJ) those secrets have a place, but there are more secrets to be had out here in internet land. And hopefully, if enough people poke in here and see the topic, maybe the Simsecret thing will catch on in the wider community as well.ĮTA: I'm not really talking shit about Legacies or the other things that are popular on LJ. And that may be what's in, but even the LJ users are griping at the lack of creativity in submissions.Īgain, I'm not calling for people to simply post any old garbage just for the sake of posting, but posting secrets that are not the same old garbage. I never got the impression that it was meant to be strictly for LJ users to rehash old whines or pat eachother on the back for having cute legacies. Please read the rules (yes, all of them) before posting anything. Note: I don't want to spam Simsecrets with a bunch of spam secrets, but I thought it would be nice to try to get more attention to it and maybe get some sims related secrets that come from outside the LJ bubble. Oh, and it should be related to the game or the drama-tastic community in some way. Make it a good one, something you've wanted to say but have been afraid of getting castigated for, or something that you think that you don't necessarily want other people to know you think. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to make a secret and send it in for next week's post. It's pretty much always the same tired crap about the same tired shit that no one outside of the LJ sims community even gives a shit about. Lately, the whole thing has degenerated into a bunch of LJ related wank and whining. You can say whatever you like about anything sims related, and no one knows it's you. For those of you who don't know what it's all about, basically people make "postcards" of sim related secrets that they want to post anonymously, and then once a week the whole mess is posted. So I've been following this whole Simsecret () thing since it started, and at first it was a lot of fun.
