Update!

Since EA made some changes about their policy and early access is still allowed, i’m thinking on coming back to it, but not right now.

Let me explain. When i heard that early access is no longer an option for me i was upset, and at the same time i felt unusually free. That i can create new stuff without worrying of the time and just making it whenever i want. And along with that, i recieved a lot of messages from people who are ready to support me no matter what. I just want to say thank you to all of you who have been supporting me all this time through the subscriptions, lovely asks, comments and messages. I feel like i’m really a part of this community right now.

So i’m going to release my cc for free and i’m not going to charge my patrons for the new creations until i feel that i’m ready to come back to early access again.

This month’s cc is going to be free as well, so i’m asking my patrons to message me to ask for a refund, i don’t want to charge you for the stuff that will be available for free from the start.

If you still got anything to ask on this matter, i’m ready to answer!

-Late comment- You have created so many of my now favorite things to use in-game and I am so grateful! Early-access or not, I will always give my financial support in some way shape or form! <3

Hi hi! Just letting you know that I absolutely love your content and as long as you're enjoying making it, I will enjoy using it! If you choose you don't want to do something or want to take a break, I don't care at all because I'm content with just supporting you no matter what!

Firstly, they seem to have clarified that reasonable early access is allowed, but secondly, I don't subscribe to get it early I subscribe because your work deserves it.

I just subscribed after seeing this, because I've spent the past day only making sims with ur outfits and don't wanna use anything else, everything you've made is so beautiful pls don't doubt how much your work contributes! <3

Me too

Direwrath3000 · August 4, 2022

There's no need to refund my portion, I do this to support you for what you have contributed so far as well. Which is worth far more than what I can offer, btw. :) Thank you for keeping a positive energy through all of that, you are one of the best CC creators.

S
Stardoozie · August 4, 2022

You make the most beautiful CC and I my library is full of your creations. I didn’t even realize I wasn’t a patron until this post, but I’m going to subscribe now. ♥️

no need for a refund! more than happy to continue showing support especially after the whirlwind that the last week or two has been in this community.

Astalith · August 4, 2022

You know what, I've been enjoying your content for a long time, for free (never bothered me to wait for the early access period), but I started subscribing JUST NOW, with no expectations, because you've worked so hard and you deserve the support!

Hey Clumsy, I appreciate the updates. no refund necessary! You're my favourite CC creator and I'm happy to support you in any way possible 💗 Don't rush or pressure yourself into doing anything you don't feel like doing, take your time Hope you're feeling like yourself again soon 💕

Beverley · August 4, 2022

No need to refund me at all, I know I don’t comment often but I just genuinely want to support you because you are an amazing creator and it never was about early access for me. Honestly do what’s best for you, I feel like a lot of people during this time seems to forget behind a creator is a person and they have feelings/mental health that’s important too that words can affect. I’m really sorry you’ve and the other creators have been under the fire and going through such hard times. Sending all my love and positive vibes your way! 💖💖

I don’t want a refund. I support you bc you’re amazing. Keep it and every month you’ve got billing turned on I’m fine with paying whether you release or not 😀💗

no refund needed for me this month! you work hard on your creations and they enrich my game, so I'm happy to pay my share for them.

No refund needed. Be happy, healthy, and creative the way it suits you best.

Amy Faigin · August 4, 2022

No need to refund, I signed up for your patreon because I respect and appreciate your artwork, and that hasn't changed. If anything, I respect and appreciate you more for the dignity and evenness with which you handled this uncertainty. Wishing you even more fun on your continued creative journey, and looking forward to seeing what you come up with next <3

Mama P Sims · August 4, 2022

I'm glad you were honest about this. So many creators have gotten into the Patreon trap and are no longer just having fun making CC without the stress of deadlines and unrealistic standards of perfection. Take your time and you will still be supported for sure! 💗

J
Julie · August 4, 2022

I do not need a refund. I love your work so no need. Thank you for your hard work. 🥰 I'm sure you are not alone in how you feel as a creator. Who are they to dictate this, it's crazy. Is it written in documentation and are you in a contract with them? I would say no. Be free no matter what. Always be free. Supporting you! 🙌✌️

Larke Lockhart · August 4, 2022

You know, I truly appreciate how much time is involved in creating Sims content. I used to run a subscription only site called Down the Garden Path for TS2. The only way to share stuff was on your own site (which I personally created and ran) or on TSR. I spent many, many hours creating room sets, wall/floor sets, and mostly garden items which severely lacked at that time (none of which I have anymore, sadly). So yeah, I really do understand how MUCH goes into creating content for TS4 as well. So, from me, know that you ARE appreciated. That no matter what you decide your content (and YOU) is very worthy of the support you get. I won't be asking for a refund this month. <3

Nika · August 4, 2022

I'm supporting creators because I like their work and also ethics - that's why I despised creators who put their stuff behind permanent paywalls and basically forced their supporters to beg for links (good riddance to them now lol). I've loved your CC ever since I found you and will continue to support even if it's for free. Do not stress about this, continue making awesome CC - we will stay here ;)

Take your time, I think most of us are not going anywhere and are here to support one of our favorite creators 😊

Rudy Huxtable · August 4, 2022

I was not a subscriber before the announcement. The grace in which you handled the change, when so many others did the opposite, is what prompted me to subscribe. Just subscribing to a few creators to try and spread the love. I’m super happy y’all got early access back. I think it’s completely fair.

T
TootsMcToots · August 4, 2022

But if i still want to give you my money it's okay for you, right? I'm only here to support with what little I have to give, but im in love with your work so i am actually sad if i cant give it to you. No matter if its free for everyone 🌸♥️

clumsyalien · August 4, 2022

This is so sweet of you! Thank you🧡 I've never tried it myself, but i think if you cancel your subscription on the month when billing cycle is paused and subscribe again it will work? But i personally think it's better to save the money for something else! 😉 I appreciate the mental support as much!

I
Ingrida Kaz · August 4, 2022

Personally, I support the creator because I want it. Early access is not THAT important.

MesiTv · August 4, 2022

I agree, most of the time I even forget to download early access CC 😅 I'm here for the creator 😊
