@haneul The “license” granted indicates that neither EA nor other players have any obligation to pay you anything. For instance, the Sims 3 gallery contained lots that INCLUDED custom content with them: this clause makes it clear cc makers have no right in that situation to prevent players from adding cc that they use in their own game to gallery lots that then include that content when others download it.
Likewise, it keeps sue happy content creators from filing suit on EA or other players. As I mentioned, if it is just a few things from a few cc creators permawalled, people can just pay to get access, then simply reshare them. If they sue for this they can be reported for TOS violations, meaning they could be prevented from ever using any game assets again. Because guess who could get sued for the lawsuit damages to the player resulting from gameplay next? What goes around, comes around.
