I've come across this post by @blueheavensims and I wanted to say I am speachless.
I myself has well am not a fan of following drama, never comment on such topics, it always gives me headaches, but I wanted to speak about the blog I found after I read his post, "thepixelarchitect-echo"
It is insulting and mocking people who spent hours, days and months working on projects to just plainly steal and post behind a paywall. I don't know blueheavensims on a personal level but he has helped me alot in the past (specially on my frist ever conversion from sims 4) and is a person with years and years of experience that I have alot of respect.
I do want to say that I am not against patreon releases (like early releases, etc) has long they follow EA rules, I myself have a patreon for requests has well and always release them for free.
With that beeing sayd, not only his projects were stolen, no credit (ofc not mandatory but we always apreciate), and put behind a paywall, I found other creators who she stole from to, and these are creators and creations from almost 15 YEARS ago (or more), who did their meshes from scratch, textures, and shared with us for free, and its creations that alot of older simmers from that time will recognize instantly, like the swan tutu that I will show bellow (and others), and it breaks my heart seeing this.
(idk if the angel wings are just deco or belong in the paywall post but mentioned them anyways in case they are)
If you see this post and find any creations you did (either original or convertions) on her blog that are behind paywall please do report! In case of convertions I reccomend contacting the original creators has well.
This is crossing the line and should never be tolerated. Please do not send any hatefull or harrassment comments to the person mentioned, I do not support that kind of behaviour.
I hope I managed to reach and warn everyone who follows me about this simmer.
