I refuse to support any company powered by Overwolf (who is providing funds for gear and supplies to the IDF) in the aiding of a genocide.
Fucking despicable...
(Edit)
A few creators have changed their links to there now. So, inescapable at the moment. Will be checking up on statuses of everything and moving accordingly.
I called out @yooniesim for their hypocrisy, what'd they do? Block me.
I think that says a lot about them.
My reply //
hmmm sorry but this is gross. It doesn't matter how much money you get from cf, you still get money from them, and you are okay with that ?
You had behind the facade of "ALWAYS FREE CC", slam any creator that makes ANY money on early access, and promote sites and pages that reupload CC.
// What about all those ea creators who are trying to pay for their medical bills and debts ?
// That depend on that income to live ?
// Don't they matter ?
At least they are doing early access which is allowed by ea, and not taking $$ from a shitty website that funds the genocide of poor Palestinians.
// What about the innocent Palestinians being slaughtered, losing their families, homes, hospitals, EVERYTHING. No access to food, water or medical care ?
You have a roof over your head and are able to go out without the fear of being killed, check your privilege.
If you don't get "that much money" from cf, whats the big deal in doing the same as other good-hearted creators and joining the boycott against genocide ?
You are nothing but a hypocrite.

guide to reporting pay-wallers and unethical early access CC creators!
do you hate when you find a piece of custom content for your sims game and when you try to download it, you either have to wait several months or just pay the creator directly to get it? me too.
while early-access is allowed, the maximum to have been stated is 3 weeks of waiting time. many creators, however, go against this rule and have people waiting months. they might even go the extra mile to permanently paywall it and make it an exclusive to their donors.
this, obviously, violates the rules the sims team have set out for the community. so what are we gonna do? report them!
it can be difficult or scary for some because you might not know how to report them, but there's also so many! that's where this guide comes in.
because the sims team logically cannot police every part of the sims fan community, it is up to us to report rulebreakers and unethical practices when we spot them.
NOTE: this tutorial might change over time as more effective methods might be discovered in the future. this is merely how i go about reporting these people.
on the help.ea.com website, click on the big letters: CONTACT EA.
2. they'll ask you to select a game and you'll click on the sims 4.
3. click whichever platform you play on, PC or MAC, and then select "report concerns or harassment".
4. when prompted to select an issue, select "report website".
5. you will then click on "select contact option", and then enter your contact details in the boxes provided on the next page.
6. you will then find yourself on this page:
fill out the subject and text box however you'd like, but make sure to be clear that the creator is going against the guidelines regarding custom content. be sure to include links to the website in the text box, even specific posts, and not just the URL box.
if you'd like a template of what to say, i have one here.
7. take screenshots as well. if a creator suspects they've been reported, they may try to remove content to try and backtrack. these screenshots are evidence.
8. you will insert the URL of their patreon/website/wherever they're hosting the content in the URL box.
9. in the "what about this website do you feel is inappropriate?" box, i very much recommend you select on "other".
considering this is a bit specific compared to the other options available, i want to make sure that these reports can be seen and not immediately discarded because they didn't fix exactly within the compounds of that one option, etc.
10. you will then press the "email us" button, and you're done!
EA will email you about your case, including your case number and any further updates on it. they may not respond or do anything at first, so keep that in mind.
i do not recommend nor suggest spamming reports either. if they have not responded to your report or have closed it (without taking action), enter another report again after 4-7 days.
it is up to us to report rulebreakers and unethical practices when we spot them.
Do y'all really think EA give a damn bout this level of petty reporting?
Leave early access creators out of it, least they be making it free. EA updated their policy for early access creators to make they stuff free after a "reasonable time period". They don't say it has to be a maximum of 3 weeks, they would have said and been strict on stating that time period if that was their policy, but they didn't.
HeyHarrie is a game changer who works close with EA, and was even picked for the mod squad by the sims team them selves. They advised her a month is okay.
