To the creator, don't force people to view ads and potentially catch viruses, forcing people is rude and makes you lose plenty of followers.
That is honestly getting so annoying with CC creators these days. I already use a chrome extension to skip over adfly since it's the most obnoxious thing in the world and now they are making their websites full of ads everywhere and force people to disable adblock if they want to even simply view it! I would be ok if the ads weren't intrusive but most of the times wherever you click, there's always 10 ads popping up. I get it that people waste a lot of time making these things for the community but making CC should be a hobby, not a job.
Sorry, rant over... The crib does look like a nice idea to be able to have younger toddlers at first and then move them to a toddler bed.
@bythedreadwolf Pretty sure you may not earn a profit on EA's intellectual property. But in this case the advertisement are on the site and not on the actual property of EA so yeah. Not sure tho and I doubt EA will clarify it. However, the cribs do look very cute, hopefully someone will pick up the height mod and modify it for toddlers as well :smile: Then you'll be able to have *smaller* toddlers.
CC creators put up ads on their blogs and put the links to the downloads on sites such as adfly simply to make money from it. Every time an ad pops up because you misclicked (sometimes you don't even misclick, ads pop up anyway) or every time you click on a link that goes through adfly, they gain money. I don't know if that's something they are allowed to do or not, but this has been happening since I can remember. With TS3 there were even sites where you had to PAY to download CC. I think that's just wrong."bythedreadwolf;15535869" wrote:

Ask for what? CC creators can do what they please. I don't really care if they make money out of their creations, illegal or not. I just find it annoying when the ads are super intrusive. What I do is simply not download or support that creator. But I'm noticing this is happening more and more and I wonder if it will come to a point where there will be no CC left that isn't behind crazy amounts of ads.- @bythedreadwolf I meant ask the mods on this site if you are allowed to do it xD Sorry should have been more clear.
Lets hope there'll still be some nice modder who won't hide behind advertisements ^^ - I actually prefer the toddler bed -- I hated it when Sims 3 toddlers would wake up before the rest of the family and be screaming in their crib to be let out. Sims 4 toddlers are a bit easier to take care of, though you still have to feed them and take them to the potty (at least early in potty skill).

The link told me that I have an ad blocker and need to disable it first to access the page.
I generally use my other browser, over disabling my Ad blockers. While I commend the creator for the work, I'm quite content with the toddler bed. Eventually all toddlers must leave the crib behind. Just sayin'."stilljustme2;15535922" wrote:

Me as well. I don't really think they are much easier but I did hate that screaming at times. LOL My son took his first steps before a year and once he could pull himself up in crib he was finding a way out of it. Much nicer to put him in a smaller cot and safer as well being close to the ground.- pepperjax12309 years agoSeasoned AceI have that problem and then it takes me to another site I never asked to go to. So yes it's annoying that they can't at least have you keep your ad blocker on. Like TSR that site is so full of ads it's impossible to not have a ad blocker to make it run faster.

I am very wary now of trying to download ts4 cc, as I have been hijacked so many times. I've now got the adfly blocker (thank heavens) but there are plenty of other things that get in your face or try to tell you that you have been infected and must 'click here' to get your pc fixed. No download is worth going through that.
I never had that with ts2 or 3, but that is probably because there was plenty of content available back then on reputable sites such as mts, and plenty of wonderful creators who shared their stuff without requiring any form of payment.- pepperjax12309 years agoSeasoned Ace
