over night i gained over 200 followers. This is not true because i have not had a single follower add since yesterday. So..I too have an issue with my account.
Thank you for the report.

I've also gained a bunch of "new" followers overnight. So I have the bug as well.

I have the same problem as svlyn2 and cinsinn - as far as I can see it applies to the number of followers, shared items and favorites on some of (mainly older) shared items.
My number of followers jumped by about 40, the number of shared items by about 50.
The counter of favorites on some of the shared items appeares to be multiplied. As an extreme example, I have a Maxis faved item which had around 1000 favs. All of a sudden it shows about 5000. Meanwhile the number of downloads seems to be on the same level.
Also I noticed the same issue with other users/creations throughout the gallery.
- Anonymous10 years agoI have gotten the same problem as you as far as shared items go. It's stating I shared 112 but I counted and recounted and it's actually 89. It kinda bothers me, because it used to be correct and now it seems that many are having issues

After todays maintenance the counter of followers jumped again. In my case it used to be wrong by about 50, now it's wrong by >100. I can tell the number is wrong, since the correct number of followers is displayed when you view the followers list. Why is this happening? Also there's an easy solution - just link the counter to the correct number from the followers list.
Also, the wrong number of shared items and the wrong number of favs on older creations (creations from before ~06/2016 seem to be affected) is still an issue which hasn't been corrected.
Any chance those gallery issues will be fixed?

Hello @SimplyAnjuta
There are still repairs going on behind-the-scenes, which could cause some numbers to be off.. Due to the sheer number of uploads in the Gallery currently, the repairs are taking a very long time. Unfortunately I don't have an ETA for you at the moment. ☹️

Thanks for your feedback. I am again affected by the fact that the numbers of the content, downloads and followers have moved massively upwards. Even if I click the list of friends, right from yesterday absolutely nothing more. So I also went to the website thesims.com to look there times. It occurred to me, that some creations of me now not as two times are contained, but 5 and more. Others are now completely gone. I just wanted to pass this on for information. Perhaps it is to work in the background of use? Sorry for my english. It is translate with google.

it's a database sorting issue, it's not like you have to sort them by hand.

Sorry @marija, you misunderstood. I did not sort this by hand or anything else. I have only "counted" 🙂
