Hii, Do You Take All Your Edit Photos In Cas? Or Do You Use One Of Those Photo Studio Sets Too? Your

Can't believe I'm making another post about Adf*y in 2021 but here we go...

I'm sure you all know the new adf*y page which (i'm pretty sure) adf*y skipper can't skip anymore, the one where it asks to send notifications and won't let you proceed until you let them send notifications.

I accidentally just allowed one of these notifications (not at home and using a janky mouse on a pillow, keeps going crazy), so I immediately headed to my chrome settings to get rid of it.

I'm going through blocking everything before I delete it (just so I feel better about it truly being gone lol) and I see this:

I'm thinking, what the hell is a payment handler and why is it set to allow?? That super doesn't sound good... And after some googling I find yeah, it's probably not great.

So, what's a payment handler? Basically, it's when google saves your payment details to autofill later on when you're making an online purchase. So that includes your credit card, debit card, paypal, ect, details. (Source - askcybersecurity.com) Now these are usually fine on legitimate sites but this site specifically:

You just google 'christianivory.pro' and every result is how to get rid of it because it's malware. (That picture was after I cleared the cookies it had already stored, no idea what they were)

(btw, I wouldn't recommend clicking on any of these since malware/viruses are often hidden behind fake anti-malware ads/programs)

Luckily I don't keep any of my payment details saved so I'm pretty sure I'm fine after deleting it and MalwareBytes or Windows Defender hasn't detected anything. I can't say for sure what it would have done if I hadn't of deleted it, it seems to mostly be notification spam but the fact that it was trying to access my payment methods doesn't sound all that great. Even if having the payment methods allowed doesn't do shit, I've had money stolen from me through an adf*y virus before (source - my tumblr)

Like I said, I'm pretty sure I got lucky because I don't save those things but I'm going to offer a hypothetical situation which could be extremely likely in our community specifically;

Lets say I'm a 14 year old simmer who uses their parents computer to play the sims. I've recently discovered custom content and my favourite creator uses adf*y, but since I'm young and new to the community I have no idea that adf*y can be bad and I trust this creator so they would never link me to anything that could harm my computer... right? So I accept that adf*y notification and don't think anything of it, I get the CC I really like and I'm happy. But that notification I just accepted has saved my parents credit card details. I'm sure you can guess where the rest of this situation goes.

So this is me, creator to creator, telling you need to stop. I know finding a source of income can be awful right now, but your source of income could be coming at the expense of someone else who did not agree to this.

If you think your content is worth a price then I urge you to start a Patreon, Ko-Fi or even a paypal because these are platforms that are safe for both parties and are OPTIONAL. Adf*y is not optional for the downloader.

Stop putting the younger and more susceptible people in our community at risk. As creators it is likely that we gain a larger following so stop taking advantage of that. Especially if you're older or are someone who preaches the safety of our younger members in this space, step up and actually practice what you fucking preach instead of just saying it for likes and reblogs.

I am genuinely sick of this, I've been in this community for over half a goddamn decade now and I've posted before about adf*y, as have dozens of other people and this shit is STILL happening.

I am so close to wiping my old laptop and recording myself going through creators adf*y links and downloading as many malicious things as I can JUST to prove to people that adf*y is not safe. And no, I wouldn't blur out blog names, I would specifically be calling people out on their shit. This isn't just petty simblr drama, this can actually affect peoples lives.

TL:DR;

It's Adf*y?? We all know it's bad, stop using it for the sake of our community members!?? I'm gonna start calling people out for pretty soon?? STOP PISSING WHERE YOU EAT

how to remove notifications on chrome:

Checking/removing payment methods on chrome:

I'm sure there are some of you who will take issue with my post for whatever reason so:

1. Don't comment saying that we should just keep downloading however many adfl*y skippers or avoidant addons or be careful about what we click, that is not the point of this post. We shouldn't HAVE to do that just to get cc, and new/young community members DON'T KNOW THIS.

2. SimGuruDrake explicitly saying creators cannot use permanent paywalls

Trailer Home Download - CC free!

I built this cc free mobile home for North Bend to share it with you. It's been built on a 10x15 lot in Mount Si Rd 9 but of course you can place it anywhere else. It's furnished with just the basics because I wanted to keep it as a starter home. No tou except that please don't claim it as your own. Feel free to tag me if you use it, would be happy to see it in your game! Floor plan and more pictures below the cut. Have fun. Download on SFS Download on MF

✧ Ebihara Student Dorm ✧

A student dorm in front of Hamachi Gakuen for those who want to live closer to the school~ Because this was meant for my own gameplay, only 4 rooms are furnished equally but not decorated, so you can do it yourself to fit your gameplay best! The other rooms are hidden with a mark, to freely edit them you must use the RestrictBuildBuyInBuildings false cheat.

Thank you all CC creators and converters!

If there’s anything missing or wrong with this download, please contact me.

This lot was built for Boroughsburg. 

i built a new house for the privettes and can’t upload the old one since i didn’t build it, so i’m doing the next best thing: uploading the rooms i think are the prettiest so they don’t just. disappear forever.

Info.

the sunroom is almost completely decorative aside from the sink, potting table, and two chairs tucked in a corner. the gardening pots are filled with non-harvestable plants since nothing of substance seems to grow in such a cramped little space.

- i own all the packs

- don’t re-upload and claim as your own / put behind a paywall

- i highly recommend placing this room in a spot that gets lots of light with a glass roof on top.

- place with move objects on 🐮

instead of continuously over-donating to ao3 when those running the site are racist zionist sympathisers who shut down support of palestine from its volunteers 1 / 2 (among myriad other issues that u should NOT be funding) please direct your attention to these incomplete fundraisers for people in gaza and various tangible operations doing work. this is a call that if u have donated even a cent to ao3 to a) match that in your donations to palestinians/causes and b) stop donating so uncritically and unconditionally to ao3, pressure them. id like to direct u to @end-otw-racism

hi jaiden! it's been a while lmao, but i was wondering how you take such nice pictures of your skyrim characters? no matter what i try mild always look bleak and ugly rip. urs are so so pretty and it gives me hope for some pretty pictures! i do have lots of mods so im up for more that make it any easier lol. ty! (also the fact that you made a good looking argonian???? what??? the SKILL??!?!?!)

a lot of it has to do with the enb preset i use! i did edit it to my liking, but it’s soooo pretty on its own and it really helps brighten and saturate my game! the enb preset i use this one here!! the only thing i changed is the DOF settings so the bokeh is more intense.  just change the bokeh intensity to 10 and the bokeh size to 18 if you want it to look like mine!!

i also have a ton of character customization mods, the most important imo being CBBE + fair skin complexion, vitruvia, eyes of beauty, beastial beast races extreme (for argonians and khajiits), orc overhaul extreme, and aesthetic elves. you don’t NEED to use custom armors to get a good screenshot, but i do use custom armors because i think they look better than the vanilla armors. my favorites are here + here !!

you should also consider getting some poses, i use these here! there’s a lot of great poses included here, but some poses can be a little suggestive at times, so tread cautiously. there’s more poses out there, but, again, most of them are suggestive at times, so use them at your own discretion.

if there’s anything else you need help with, let me know!!
