Some things to say...
A lot of emotions going around about GOS and S2A. Rightfully so. Glad to see those stepping up and taking charge.
My two-cents are quite simple from a creator's standpoint. I started cross-posting my CC to HHS around 2022(ish) when GOS was down for a stint. I continued thereafter and republished predated content.
The lesson for me is that I can't control GOS or any other forum. The only decision I have is to make it available somewhere else that I do control. For me, this is HHS or here on Tumblr.
Though as a poorly-timed announcement...
I will close HHS...eventually. Partially because I'm really the only one that goes on there. Well, except the bots. But I plan to make a spreadsheet with direct links to not only my content, but everyone's and any tutorials on there. @13pumpkin31 and @michelleabstuff are no longer in the community. It doesn't seem @jeweloftheworld is either? @deatherella, of course, is and is appreciated.
Don't panic! This closing is nowhere near in the future. It's not even on my calendar. I'll get froggy one day and make the sheet, but I'll more than likely not revisit it for a few months XD When the time comes, I'll let everyone know. My plan is for nothing to truly be lost but the URL. HHS will still have a tumblr with a link to its content.
Along with the HHS spreadsheet, I'm going to make one for all my content in general so it's somewhere safe. This will have links to Box, SFS, and MF directly instead of redirecting to other places. Links to meshes, morphs, and alike will also be there and with any special directions for the CC.
I decided a long time ago that I'm not making CC anymore. Honestly, don't remember how to do most of it anyway. I'll still upload buildings for my baby Lushland, but I don't really see myself going back to full-time CC making, and if I do make anything it'll be for completing S2BO. AU is suspended. I don't know if I'll return to it since I'm writing the books.
This doesn't mean I'm retired. I'm still around, still playing sims, still oohing and awing at everyone's posts, still willing to answer questions and converse about the games we love. I'm not the creator I once was, but I'm still a simmer.
