Default Is Parsimonious gone? Whew, false alarm!
Okay, everyone else may know this already, goodness knows it wouldn’t be the first time I was the last to know something. I only started playing Sims 2 again a few months back and it’s disheartening to not find stuff i remember from my first time around.

I followed a link in a post here to Parsimonious.org today and my browser said that nothing was there. They had such neat stuff. I managed to pull it up on the Wayback Machine, but I haven’t tested any of the download links. Downloading off Wayback can be iffy at best. Does anyone know if the content has been archived somewhere?

Still alive and kicking, thankfully!
www.parsimonious.org/sims2.html

However, my browser tells me that the site is not secure so you may need to adjust your browser settings to have it show for you (many browsers are set to block sites deemed insecure, I have mine set to show these because I use so many old Sims 2 sites! )

Oh good! This is a slightly different address than the old post. I am relieved.

Thank you.

I never typed a url so fast as when I read the thread title- nearly gave me a heart attack! I'm very glad it's still there, I love the stuff from this site!

"Possible security threat" should definitely have a different message than "Nothing here". I blame that moment of panic on my browser. The really peculiar thing is that the CC I was looking for, the gable vents, did not show up for me when I paged through all 196 screens, but it came up on the link from the old forum post with little blue questions marks in place of the pictures and descriptions. I clicked to download on pure faith. Fortunately it was what I wanted.
