I think that would be such a big repeat of Seasons....I think a farm
theme for a stuff oack would be appropriate except there is already tons
of farm implements etc on all the sites...and now there's the rideable
horse, donkey, and camel (the neighing when someone goes near them can
drive you bonkeers, though) so just exactly would they put in it? In
order to ahve a workable tractor you would ahve to farm a huge lot...and
you can already build a hip roofed barn...

It seems as though Maxis might fulfill a fan requested EP. The MOST
requested. I'm thinking either magic or farm themed.

Why? A farm theme is already possible with Seasons.

I never used the magic stuff in Makin Magic and only used the medievel stuff
in the old Sims once when I built a serial killer house where I sent Sims I
wanted to get rid of.

I hope Sims 3 has a tattoo gun that Sims can use to give each other tattoos.
That is one thing I would REALLY like to see - as well as ridable
motorcycles and horses (that aren't fan-made.)

That's true. When a kid/teen shows up in the ng we tend to identify them
pretty fast, anyway. And it's usually been because they stumbled onto the
group while exploring Google Groups. The under-20s tend to prefer web-based
browsing rather than bothering with a newsreader and a text-only interface.
