I signed up just so I could be a pirate. I always show up at the LAST minute. I hope this doesn't mean we can't be pirates anymore. :cry: On the upside, I hope Thomas gets a chunk chewed out of his big floppy man-ass. ROTF floppy man-ass *dies from laughing* :lol:

Is there any evidence of this being a legitimate communication from EA? (I tried registering for SFV but I'm still waiting for the confirmation.) I'm all set to celebrate this news but it could just as easily be a fabrication.

What would be really cool is if EA made all the paysites pay back all the money they've made.

Oh hell yes. Damn I missed a lot today. But that is freaking fantastic, and yes Nouk I agree on the "thriller" ending. Hell yeah.
Edited to include respnse to KarmaPirate: No we still get to be pirates, I don't think EA will go after them right away. Maybe they are hoping to just get the message out. Being a pirate is still greater than ever at a time like this. Arrrr!!
To Sherrie_Sim: Nice! My husband plays the new Command and Conquer, his gametag is Somthinsfishy if you have ever seen him. He plays Lost Planet a lot too. Not that you give a shit, :lol: , just thought it was kinda cool and wanted to comment.

I'm all set to celebrate this news but it could just as easily be a fabrication. Uhm yes? But it's all actually none which I'm gonna rub under your face. It's kept secret for some reason...as in "I don't know why we (the AA) couldn't just STFU until everything is sure". I don't like spreading the word without having any action from EA first.

Like i have said the only thing that has been edited was my name from that letter, that's all! Why would i fabricate something like that?

I'm sorry, why would we do that, including making a large list of all paysites, just to send it EA even when they don't care. It doesn't make sense. So you won't find anything on SFV.

Out of curiosity, is TSR US-based? Because if so, I imagine once EA does the math (and they get serious about the problem) they'll be the first slapped with a Cease and Desist letter, while sites like Peggy and Rose could be tougher.

Thing is, it only needs EA to declare that certain named sites (eg) Peggy, Rose are in contravention of the EULA, and then I think large numbers of players that up till now have been anti-sharing will change sides, at least in respect of those named sites. So even if EA do not find it useful to actually start legal action against sites, it won't harm them to name and shame certain ones.

Most people buy that crap they spew about EA not caring about all the money they make.

do you really believe that EA will sue paysites ?? are you dumbs or what?!
Paysites are much more profitable to EA than you think! Fansites give more success to their game.. if players have to play only with original content of the game it wouldn’t be so popular!
And this is much true for paysites.. you can say what you want on them but you must admit that their custom content improves a lot the game.. people continue to play the sims 2 and continue to buy add on and other stuff... if EA was against paysites do you really think that they would wait your letter to do something :roll:
paysites are doing money with EA, EA is doing money with paysites and everyone is happy!

Yeah but free sites MTS2 produce the same effect without breaking the law although I do agree that they have paysites on their fan listing so they must have known what was going on :evil:
