SimGuruNinja

Out of curiosity what were they saying?

I also get frustrated and upset when people harass/bully the sim Gurus. I didn't even really care about the theme of this pack but I bought it on release anyways because the Gurus seemed so excited.  I think the L&D pack is wonderful. I hope the community starts treating the Gurus with a little more empathy and respect in the future. 

Thank you for not condemning the whole simming community over a few angry people on Twitter. 

This is a much more tasteful approach in expressing your distaste in what happened on Twitter along with showing your appreciation towards the gurus and EA team.

The studio need a safe place where they could interact with the community and hear the feedback without violence, The Sims Discord might be more appropriate for this purpose.

For example InZOI developers only use discord to talk with the community.

They asked him what winter would look like in the new world and he said that they chose to do always autumn instead, then they said the sims team were lazy and that new worlds should have seasons.  

That was the gist of it but I read someone threatened him, didn’t see that.  Just people complaining about it.

I was horrified to read that one of the sims team members had to step away from Twitter bc of harassment. I hope he is or will be alright. 

I agree with you. There's more to love about this game than not. The bugs are for the most part nothing more than quirks. 

I don't follow the social medias that closely, but I've seen him many times on the forums. Earlier this year there was some toxicity directed at mod creators too. It seems to be a thing of the times... that we forget there are actual human beings behind the internet names and behave in inexcusable ways. 

I echo your sentiment OP! Thank you Simguru Ninja (and others ofc!) for your hard work!

I see if they threatened him that is just beyond the pale

I agree! 

I'm really sorry that happened. It seems that our society has become more inclined to be childish brats when they don't get what they want or their way. It is horrifying that people don't take the old addage, 'Do unto others as you would have done unto you' as a motto. I hope that SimGuruNinja knows how much appreciation there is for him too.
