Questions About the Forum.
Sorry this is the first time I strayed from the Sims Forums, I was just curious about some things after reading the rules and then thinking about something. No I am not going to be questioning the rules, I am just going to be asking about Q and A type things regarding the forum. If this is not the right spot for it let me know where it is supposed to go for the future. I looked and did not seem to see any Forum Help section unless I just missed it.1. Was this Forum made from scratch or did you guys use a forum hosting website for it, if so which one?
2. How long has this Forum actually been around for? I would guess due to the fact the original Sims game has a forum section here I would imagine since the beginning, but I could be wrong.
3. What led you guys to make this site?
Thanks and I await replies.

This site has been around since shortly before Sims 2 was released.
This gives some clues about its origins:

And this snapshot from October 2004 even more so, as you can see some hosting details at the bottom of the page:
https://web.archive.org/web/2004101...t.php?content.1
There is a site questions forum here:
http://www.modthesims.info/forumdisplay.php?f=24
So you might want to post your questions there.

Okay thank you for your answers, I will remember to use the site forum questions part if I ever have future questions.

Also, @Tashiketh is the site owner so he may be able to give you some more detail.

1. Was this Forum made from scratch or did you guys use a forum hosting website for it, if so which one?
As noted on the old About page, it's based on vBulletin, but it's heavily heavily modified by now, with a lot of custom stuff. All hosted on dedicated hardware.
2. How long has this Forum actually been around for? I would guess due to the fact the original Sims game has a forum section here I would imagine since the beginning, but I could be wrong.
Technically, early 2004, although I switched to vBulletin in ~October of that year. We added a TS1 section years later.
3. What led you guys to make this site?
Because why not? Weren't that many good free sites around at the time dedicated to TS2 modding.
Story books are full of fairy tales, of Kings and Queens, and the bluest skies.
