-InSIM was run by Kathy and Eric until late November 2008. At that time, it was sold to Walt Thiessen. [[Walt]] is a businessman who wanted to make a profit from the site; he has never played the Sims.  Because of issues around the sale of the site, the community revolted and moved their creations en-masse to a new community-run 100%-Walt-free mirror site. As a part of this move, the locations for InSIM and InSIMAdult have been changed from .NET to .ORG. These new community-run sites are now available at:

 There is some evidence that the previous owners kept a majority of the funds generated by the site for their own personal use, while assuring the community that all funds were used to support the site.  The current owner is interested in selling the site back to the community and leaving; he would like to recover all of his costs, including the price that he paid to the previous owners for the site.
