I agree that they should post all the same announcements here as on twitter. However, I do have to agree with @Netzspannung as well. I've never once thought the forums were a place for me to connect with Guru's but rather a service provided to us to connect with other simmers. We don't even bug report here! That goes to EA. I've always thought of it as more a treat if a Guru shows up in a thread! They do read the feedback section though, even if they're not always commenting on it and I see them often in the bug reports over at EA AnswersHQ.

There's not enough time in a day for them to work their full time job working on the game, read all the forums and answer everything, and other social medias. It would be unreasonable to expect them to do any of this outside office hours, although I do suspect that some do. Personally, I'd rather them keep working on the game and updates and bug fixes than answering my post on here.

Interesting to read how you see this forum. I always thought it was a little bit of both, a place for simmers to connect to each other and to communicate with Maxis. But I think you are right, it probably is not supposed to be about the latter. Which is a bit sad because after all this is the official forum. People here post because they really care about the game.

About the bug report, we don't report bugs here because we are not allowed. Posts about bugs get shot down. We are forced to go to the bug report section at EA for that. I wish we could report them here.

Don't worry I read them still and let SimGurus know about them when I can. Perk of being a Playtester, is getting to play with the bugs. We used to be able to report them and I still see SimQARobo stop by, but yes reporting them with EA help section is good and can send save files directly to the Gurus and pictures which can help squish the bugs faster.
