Locking something behind a paywall indicates that your intent is to make money, particularly if you are using that brand name when trying to advertise what’s behind that paywall in order to “entice” people to buy. A donation method speaks to your INTENT, showing that you’re not about making money, you’re just wanting to share the content with others, and if they chose to donate, that’s their choice. There’s a distinct difference between adapting the prints onto CC furniture for an optional donation vs adapting it for CC furniture and locking it behind a paywall. However, part of the main reason that this simmer is a bit of a problem is that UNLIKE other simmers who are using these prints in CC, they are specifically trying to profit off it, and off of the brand name. So as far as the “sin” of using patterns from a company that may not exactly allow it, they’re not the only one guilty of it. SUBMITTED PORTION FROM I’m going to be frank here, as I always try to tell it like it is.įirst of all, this creator is not the only person who’s used RPC prints. Simmers really need to speak up more because, since EA will do shit about this, we ourselves are allowing these greedy creators to exist and continue like nothing wrong is happening. They made it Patreon exclusive, of course, as an extra screw you to EA and other Simmers. The creator says the $20 will get you all of their CC so far but what if I only want THIS particular recolor? Why do I have to pay you $20 for useless CC (for me) that I am not going to use. This creator really took an EA mesh, recolored it with a pattern from an indie company that doesn’t allow people to use their patterns without permission (which I am 97% sure this creator doesn’t have) and then is charging people $20 for it.
