I always use EA SP. It is slow in workings, and not much happens, but I do not mind, the way I play I tend to make things happen myself by changing household, decorating and equipping lots a certain way, and by making the active sims behaving so as well hoping, mostly in vain, that my plans get thwarted, for the fun of it.
Being a newcomer both to the Sims 3 and the series, as well as actually posting in a forum I am very surprised by the attitudes towards both the game we all want to play, as well as to some of the third party additions to it. For personal interest I read a lot of the threads both here and elsewhere and find it somewhat hard to understand all the criticism towards, in this case, MATY. I of course agree that being kind and careful, especially here in this forum it being explicitly directed to teenagers, is the responsible and mature way of acting; and that a lot of threads at MATY are dwindling into regular dog fights, sometimes obscuring the point of them.
But that place is a very good place to go for information on the game, and most of the people posting there knows a lot about it, its mechanics, mods, how to test problems, how to use punctuation and how to spell, and not to quote posts as long as tomorrow making it hard to read through any thread later on.
I think the criticism usually afforded the place comes from the, perhaps young and inexperienced, that are surprised by anyone expecting them to try on their own before, in bad writing, demanding someone else to do it for them.
