I wanted to make a post, just to clarify. I received a "nice" comment under the post about the Sweet Allure kit. The person who left it wondered why EA hadn't closed my "fucking ass" (quote) since the kit costs as much as "2 candy bars" (quote again) and urged me to get a job. The message ends with a warm "Loser".
I would like to clarify, without directly quoting the author of the comment (it's not necessary, you know who you are). The funny thing about all this is that, unlike EA and those who create kits, or various frankenmeshes, I DO NOT RECEIVE MONETARY COMPENSATION. The little money I get here on patreon (7 euros, and you can all see it), is from very few users who have decided of their own free will to give it to me. Everything I share is FREE AND ACCESSIBLE TO ANYONE. I PAY FOR all the kits, expansion packs, etc.
If EA wants to shut my "fucking ass" up, please go ahead, but they should also silence all those who have gotten rich by breaking the rules they imposed on PERMAPAYWALL.
Hateful comments, offensive comments made behind a PC are smoke in the eyes ;)
I'm too old for this bullshit <3
With love,

I appreciate very much what you do. I have been a big fan of sims since sims 2. I have put so much real money into this game and the franchise. My husband hates EA bc he feels they are money hungry. You doing this keeps him and I both happy. Youre amazing. The game really helps me with my depression and I always appreciate help to make the game more enjoyable. Im sorry you had to deal with such a person. We both hope you have a great day.
a huge hug to you and your husband
I don't have an income at ALL because I'm disabled but the disability aid people just... dont agree? With my doctor............... So, yeah, I have had to ask my poor partner for a few packs and he's so kind to me but we can't afford more, it's been a rough few years and I am ETERNALLY grateful for people like you <3 and cc creators have sometimes given me their packs in advance (I havent begged, to be clear, just been perhaps a tad too excited lol) and I cry happy tears for people who go out of their way to help others. Between surgery, losses (four cats in 2,5 years...), grief, no income, no friends anymore, dad's heartattack, I've had a tough time holding on to a will to live and if a little game and people's consideration and help makes me happy, then that means more than that a billion dollar company get a few dollars extra, dollars I and other disabled people might not even have! So yeah. Sorry for this rant, and thank you again. Sending my regards to you and your husband, grief is terribly overwhelming and consuming, I hope your little puppies will bring you some joy now <3
Sending you all the love I can! Good luck with your life! <3
I respect the hell out of you. Thanks for converting all this shit for us, too. I appreciate it.
Not everyone can afford 2 candy bars and have to pick and choose what they can afford when. AND that permapaywall crap ticks me off. All I wanted was the mirror. So this was a great option.
Thank you so much for the free cc. You're doing god's work. EA is just capitalist bulls**t company that only cares about the money. Though I like some of the packs/kits but when i convert USD to my currency, it's really pricey. So it's definitely not "2 candy bars" money for me. You're a literal Robin Hood for me and people like me. Thank you again. Have a great day :)
You're the best for doing this honestly.
totally
Oh no, you're hurting the pockets of a billion dollars company with the few people who stumbled onto your content. Do not give these cave trolls any attention, let them talk to their own sad reflection.
Thank u my friend...for everything <3
continua e lasciali perdere! non e' giusto questo mercato dei kit, con espansioni ancora piene di bug. non meritano generosita' da questa community. sei una grande, ti ringrazio per le conversioni <3
siamo pienamente concordi! il gioco è pieno zeppo di bug da anni. Sono 5 mesi che attendiamo il fix per la pioggia che passa attraverso i tetti, ma loro si preoccupano di rilasciare altri 3 kit a pagamento. con tutti i soldi che ho pagato in 25 anni di the sims potevo comprarmi un'auto.
I get it, I do, but it IS a crime so
So?
I love your conversions because they let me pick and choose what I want in my game. If I install the pack, I have to take everything
So much going on in the world and we're worried about a creator uploading what they paid for? Thank you for blessing those who may not be able or wanting to buy yet ANOTHER kit from EA. You are appreciated!
its not like every single person who wants the packs are downloading a free version instead of buying them from EA. theres so many sims4 players, some people choosing to download the packs arent gonna make a big difference to the money that the Sims4 gets
This is sad to read, but I often asked me when it happens that someone is crying about your BG made CC which is often Pay Content. The original CC Creators may be crying about the fact that you are provide EA Store items for less. I guess they are afraid that nowbody will buy then their Creations and loss money. Funfact: i often forget to "donate" money by adding the creator code when I'm buying something from the store :-D
What is so sad really is in how EA treats these creators. When we do purchase these games a percentage should go to them automatically instead of relying on some code, because otherwise they get nothing. Plus, they should receive a decent flat rate in addition to the percentage of purchases made. The flat rate given is no where near close to the amount EA rakes in from these kits, in fact.. it is peanuts in comparison. The percentage they get from the code each time is only worth twenty-five cents. That's it. They should be more willing to support our community better than this. Additionally, there are surprisingly many of us who will download these BGC and find we like these kits enough to buy them. It is nice to have this option to test them first before purchasing. I also wish EA somehow made it possible to purchase some of these items individually so we are not forced to pay for a full set or DLC pack when we only desire a few carefully selected items.
You know... it is these conversions that honestly help me to decide if I want to even buy the actual kit. $5.00 a pop for each and every kit, plus to pay for every game pack, stuff pack and expansion... many of us have given a thousand easily to EA (which includes the sales offered). Yet, when you buy these DLC from EA, even though pics are included, it is amazing how some things can actually look better... or even worse in your own game (not to mention broken). To have a chance to explore these first is really a blessing. And yes, why should we pay for frankenmeshes? While there is some variances (albeit small) many of our creators out there can do this and have done this for free. For the money we pay, we deserve fresh and new ideas... not borrowed ideas from another pack. So, beloved... keep on doing what you are doing. Know you are greatly appreciated for all you do.
You broke it down real nicely for them lol. Keep doing you and bless your heart.
I'm sorry you were treated like that, but I'm not surprised. Ignorance breeds a lot of things, including misguided hatred. It also seems to create this strange form of confidence that seems to really emboldened the ignorant to attack others. I'm sorry you were the victim of a keyboard warrior with nothing better to do.
I also wanted to say that I'm glad you removed the comment and didn't name them. I'm not here to stroke your ego, just to say I'm proud of you for being the bigger person.
