Most of all it‘s not a matter of age to me, it‘s about Respekt. The case is solved and closed for me.

Chat section or not. This is not a "regular" chat subject. You guys are discussing a persons (Twitter) action behind his back coming up with assumptions without even knowing the real reasons which I find respectless toward the person. How would you feel if your personality turns into a chat discussion behind your back? And you are really wondering why they act the way they act? A SimGuru has to deal with millions of people each day, and are getting insulted almost just as much. The action therefore does not surprise me if it's done just to prevent any further "unnecessary" discussions. They are only humans too, ya know. I do not talk with "Someone's behind!" SimsGuru already knows my issue because I asked him "WHY" Also apologized if I was rude to him. BUT I do not reply or talked with him! PLUS: I do not say a bad thing for SimsGuru Grant. I just felt sad due to blocking me on twitter because I dunno the reason even he said HE DOESN'T KNOW WHY HE BLOCKED ME. Second, It's Chat Section, It's about Sims. And I "ASKED YOU" if the same thing happened to you because he said I blocked a lot of people. Please read everything clearly then share your opinions without judging me.

I'm sure there are more important things in life to worry about other than just a game related thang. One day hopefully the OP get there too. Believe me, I have really important things than SimsGuru Grant or smth. I just WONDERED If it happened it to you before. That's it. Don't make it a big thing. If you think it is unnecessary or something, it is better not to say something. I have an option to share it so I did. I didn't do it because I care it too much.

hi! I've been silently following this thread. the question, the op's concern and the section "general chat" are all valid, there's no reason to minimize what they're asking about in search of opinions. if I cared (a lot or 1%) about it if it had happened to me I'd have done the same. come here, and look for possible reasons. this doesn't apply only to this thread, but in general in all sections of this forum.
there're many reasons why they could have blocked you, either by mistake or with a valid reason. whatever it is, it leaves a bad taste. shame that it happened to you, specially of you looked up at them.
I'm honestly.. having mixed feelings.. the community ask for x content and that.. isn't being delivered at all. instead of improving old (and loved content).. they give out half of it.... or none at all.. (recent famous ep). I was reading the comments on YouTube under the released trailer and 80% were asking for university.. so.. idk. anyway, sorry for the ramble.

I just looked at the youtube comments and I only saw one asking for university most people were complaining they had to pay, case and point the sims community treat the developers like trash they are NEVER happy they just want more and more for nothing and wanting and asking for more is fine but the community doesn't do it nicely, and before you tell me how evil ea is well Bethesda still have loot boxes and micro transactions throughout eso. Just my two cents :P

@thelibrarian well I saw the trailer as soon as it released (have notifications on) and that's what mostly everybody was saying at the time.
I don't play any other game from them so I can't comment about that. I do play freemium games with microtransactions though, they have their pros and cons.. but how we don't end up with that here, they have the mobile game already for that (which I've never played).
As for ppl asking for "more", most (I won't generalize) know what more is since they've played all the previous games. I always say things but, years go by and there should be improvements and more content.. not less. example: apartments, business.. both done very poorly. but I won't never complain with the team.. all comes down to the budget, and the due dates.

inabadromance exactly the budgets and schedules which they have to keep to maximize profits, and mostly they cant just increase the price and give themselves reasonable deadlines because of video game piracy, I was looking at statistics for this and 50% of games in the uk were obtained illegally and sometimes that increased to more in the period of (i think it was 2016 - 2018), video game piracy is to blame for loot boxes and ridiculous deadlines. Companies have to cut corners rather than increase prices despite the fact that production costs go up. I'm not saying everyone in the sims community is rude either I generalized and shouldn't of but nearly every comment I see is negative and usually in a not put forward nice way, if you want I can try to find the statistic again

I'm gonna delete this post because people do not read or care what I said. It turns out how I was rude or was being rude to the sims community. As I said one more time; I have never had like that something with sims community. I never thought they were trash or something due to what happened to me. I'm saying I don't tweet to simsguru grant (no one sees this detail), that's why I shocked. If I usually reply to his tweets, I could have a clue for it but i don't reply, just following for upcoming updates news. You can check out my twitter. This topic turns out how players selfies or rude to the community. Yes, some people like this, but it doesn't relate to my topic now. I don't do these things to the community. It's misunderstood. I do not ask please university or cars blah blah. I'm not too into it. And I believe he blocks me wrong, because I had a bob pancakes picture, and name. There are many accounts like that so. (I've changed.) I apologized from SimsGuru Grant If I had been rude or say the wrong thing. ( I SAID IT HERE BUT STILL, PEOPLE TALKIN ABOUT BEING RUDE, TRASH ETC.)

Hi ricciricciricci, no one is suggesting that comments about rudeness apply to you. You have said nothing that indicates you were (or are) rude. I think people are speculating about why a SimGuru might be too quick to block a person when that individual has done nothing wrong.

For me when i said my opinion about this being considered talking behind someone's back, was just that. My opinion, as that shouldn't have taken place here, and it happens to be in your topic, and truth be told, i would have said the same in a different topic, if i think my opinion applies to it, and which in this it did, for me at least. And i stick with my opinion about it. Because for me it's the way you presented it. When u apply stuff like WTH?!?! and adding alot of caps, it suggests you are mad and shouting. So is it weird that people take a certain stand? It's all about how you type a message on internet. I've said this many times over the years, but even the most nicest person, can look like a total douche on the internet, if the message is presented in a certain way. What i am trying to say is, i think if you presented your topic in a bit different way, without the 'shouting' and ?! people would have reacted very different to you then as we did now. If you feel offended by my opinion about this, well sorry but i am sticking with my opinion, as i reserve the right to do so

Businesses are wanting to be treated like people and even better than the rest of us real human beings and I think it's ridiculous. It's a business entity, not a person! We are the customers, playing their game of capitalism. Why should we care about feelings? Is that how they run their business? No. They are just in it for the money. This tendency of consumers to offer up free PR to major corporations, while already over-paying for their product is just bizarre to me. They can take care of themselves. They are doing everything they do in their own self-interest. Why are consumers expected to not act in our own self-interest in the market? They get a pass and we get moralized at.

As the OP has marked the thread (CLOSED), I have locked it. This should not be taken to mean that the topic itself or any of the posts here caused the thread to be locked.
