@PoptartJuniper wrote:@VIKING5GRL The only thing I have "heard" (meaning I found no official report or documentation) is that it is a known issue that the Gallery shows an incorrect number of followers. What is listed in your tab is correct. Apparently no one reports the inflated incorrect number for ego reasons? No idea.
You could probably make a bug report on the bug forum to have an official report. https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/bd-p/The-Sims-4-Bugs
Lol, That’s why I was hesitant to report it when I first noticed. Apologies if I came across as having an Ego, it’s most definitely not what I intended. I’m not a great builder so I’m thankful for every “follow” I get no matter the number. There is an issue though, happened again last night.. Said I gained a follower and another existing follower disappeared., one that I speak to and know didn’t “unfollow”. This only happens when someone follows. I’m already sorry I started this topic, you can close it if you’d like. I’m definitely not going to make report about it.. Thanks for your help
@VIKING5GRL Apologies, I didn't mean you had an ego for asking about it. Since you were honestly asking why it said you had more followers than you do on your tab. I meant that it's a longstanding issue and the response was in line with "no one is going to complain their thing says they have more followers than they actually have."
So, it is an issue. It hasn't been officially reported as a bug even though it probably is. It's up to you to report it as a bug.
There's no shame in asking questions about your game and issues.
