Re: Why is Sims Direct Update only on X/Twitter & not DIRECTLY on EA site or AHQ ?

@Prov31Simmer I am hopeful that shining light on this issue may change practices.

    Hey all!

    We do also share the updates from TheSimsDirect on Twitter in the official Discord as well, in fact we actually have a whole channel in the Discord dedicated to it.

    Unfortunately yesterdays update wasn't shared in that space as our Discord admin was out of office, and word had already gotten around by this morning when she returned.

    The fact of the matter is that it takes a small team to update the EA News site, whereas it only takes one person to send a tweet/make a post in Discord. 

    If those options feel too limiting, @simgirl1010 has you covered here as she's able (I often try to beat her to the punch on these, and I think I won one time out of a hundred).

    @EA_Cade I appreciate the points you shared - efficient and wise use of available staff is important. Thanks 

    Also, I do see the most recent update is in fact on the official discord & EA website and @simgirl1010 's pinned thread >> (e-patch roll out 3/6 to fix multiple issues! Hooray!)

    Update 3/6/24

    @EA_Cade I also appreciate you sharing this info. Often, we just don't understand the reasoning behind a decision and hearing it can help us to either accept it, or provide better feedback (from our perspective). Although I'm sure you are not always able to tell us things, even if you'd like to. Thanks again.

    Thanks, @EA_Cade

    I’m trying to limit or eliminate my Twitter usage because of changes to the moderation policies, including the new owner firing most of the moderation team and posting antisemitic comments, so I really appreciate the Discord option.
