What the title says. If i make something and put it into my game it is mine. If i make a sim and share it on the gallery it is no longer mine it is called sharing. What i choose to share is the property of EA. Anyone can take it off the gallery change it around or not and reload it to the gallery with the changes they have made. All the same as i shared it. So to call that stealing is not correct. No one has taken anything. The game sometimes deletes your library so you put it on the gallery so you can keep it. I feel that if you choose to share your creations (and thank you for them) you need to realize that you are then giving them to EA and they are fair game for me or anyone else to download. Yeah you worked hard on them i saw them i liked them i downloaded them i am trying now to understand why people feel this is stealing.
I agree with you, but I have seen people upload lots and not change anything they do not credit the original creator, they didn't even redecorate or change wall paper. Their upload gets a zillion more downloads and the original poster has like three downloads. I can see how that would be upsetting to new people and new builders or new people who put a lot of time (hours) into a build.
