Boolprop

If you are reading this, chances are, you know more about Boolprop than I do– it’s on my to do list to join. But I have heard from Simmers I trust that it is a great forum to get to know other simmers and chat about any of the Sims games. It is a classic!

N99

N99 has been around since the early days of Sims 1, and players of Sims 1 and 2 will be very happy to find that those forums are still very active at N99; there are also active Sims 3 and Sims 4 forums. N99 forums can not be topped for informative posts, including technical information about creating and managing custom content, mods, and general maintenance of Sims games. N99 members are some of the most amazing simmers I have met, between their creativity, knowledge base, and general great people skills.
