dbmcgrew, highlighting on one phrase is seen as cherrypicking and gives people like myself a very negative impression of the person doing the cherrypicking. It continually given a bad impression of certain types of individuals, but I suspect that was the purpose. Personally, I will either quote the ENTIRE message or just @ the username.
Btw, It is valid to say that there is no actual benefits to adding a preteen stage to a game that is currently over a decade old, since it launched in 2014. There is significant cost to creating animations to yet another body frame size, creating CAS assets to yet another frame size, and creating significant unique gameplay features for that new frame. They are barely putting money into the current packs if what I have seen via the early access videos is something to go by. The Sims franchise may be EA's cash cow, but they certainly are not giving it the same amount of financial love that it brings in by revenue.
Prov31Simmer, I certainly wasn't trying to cherrypick. After all, the entire conversation is visible right here in this discussion thread. I was merely trimming the quoted material to make it clear what I was actually replying to, including only the part relevant to my reply. This has been considered good netiquette in online discussions for decades. Quoting an entire message only to reply to part of it is actually considered poor netiquette.
