I just went yesterday and bought $61 worth of things to get as close to 60 as possible, then used 60000 points and got 20000 points back. Getting $60 of things we need for $40 was still a win for me. So even though I agree they already got my money when I accrued the points, the reality is $60 of merch left and they gained ~$1.

So for now my plan is to only buy necessities there and only during similar promotions.

Oh my kid doesn't play -- more or less just listens to me vent about EA while occasionally providing advice on how to make my Sims clothing/builds look better. :D

Aww thanks for the comment. I'll share this with my kid as they're the one who came up with that one. :D

I'm so looking forward to once Paralives launches (Early Access to be sometime in 2025). Out of all of the competition, that's the one I'm looking forward to the most. I've been a Patreon supporter for years and love seeing their weekly updates.

I'm not interested in giving EA any more money or in their 2 hour long commercial. However, what I AM interested in is all creative talents who may create their own versions of what the Sims movie should be based on Sims 4 is actually like:

• No plot since it's up to you to think up the story in your head!
• Dining out for hours but the Sims can't sit down and actually eat a meal.
• Sims getting married when they've known each other for less than a day.
• A wedding with guests doing things like pushups or using their cellphones during the ceremony.
• A sim drops trash and now can't walk around it doing their 'hey you - help here - hand wave'.
• A crying baby needing food with two parents who desperately need to pee. The parents pass the baby back and forth, pee themselves, then one places the baby down on the floor in the puddle of urine.
• Famous Sims oddly appearing in every scene despite it not making sense for them to be there and oddities like wearing swimwear in snowy areas.

I break the spaghetti into 3 pieces before cooking it as then it's much easier to deal with. :)

Better to create your own instance then.

It's about reducing risk not eradicating it and there's a huge difference in risk in being targeted for legal action due to hosting c/piracy (via caching/mirroring) than from a single piracy post in c/hellokitty.

Yeah I agree re opaque policies as if someone can get suspended for this, it would be nice if it was easy to find a policy regarding it. Thanks for your response.

Can you or Laurence link me to the policy saying one can't have both a paid and unpaid app? Or are you asserting Google didn't follow their own policy in this regard?
