EA for years has had some of the best community games there was TSO and Earth and beyond. But the last 5 years the company has gone down hill.They just recently bought bioware and mystic studios who runs DAOC and bringing you WAR as well. Well the reason i am posting this is because i have never in my lifetime seen so much stupidity on a companys part first they get rid of earth and beyond imo was a great game and now they bump TSO because they dont care about there community.When this gets aired enough i hope the two new companys they got watch there backs.Bioware is comeing out with a KOTOR MMO and the way EA handle's things when things are rough is whats gonna put them under.EQ1 has been going stong for 10 years now although the last 4 years have been a little rough for them because of WoW and EQ2 but the game is still there.EA is the worse company imo and i will never buy another game from them again console or PC and i myself buy about 50-75 games a year. TSO was one of the best community games i have ever played everyone was friendly and actually grew closer to each other over the years. Now for the head of TSO that stated that TSO never exsisted she must be a moron. and i knew this would happen again because now this proves my thorey yet again about how bad a company EA is. im glad to see most if not all the devs from TSo AKA EA-Lands left althought im sure the coperate bull heads dont really care about there employee's like they dont about there customers evan though we are the reason they are in there seats in the first place.once Bioware is done with there game i hope both them and lucas arts give EA no power over the game at all same with mythic studios because it will happen there as well.And im sorry about postiong this but it has to be aired it has been a concern for alot of ppl in the past about EA.
Paragraphs please lol....
EA is not the worst company of all, its the largest, with the most customers, which makes it seem like the worst. But I guarantee that if another company ever becomes as big as EA, it will have the same type of criticism.
Now for the head of TSO that stated that TSO never exsisted she must be a moron. and i knew this would happen again because now this proves my thorey yet again about how bad a company EA is
Nancy Smith, the woman you are refering to. Is not the "Head of TSO" she is the Head Director of EVERY SIMS GAME RELEASED OR IN PRODUCTION. She probably forgot about The Sims Online long ago.

Really ? 50 - 75 games a year? You must have a vast collection of video games, not to mention a big wallet, how about you go and look at the publisher of each game. How much do you want to bet that at least 40% of all the games you have are either created & published or just published/distributed by Electronic Arts (EA) or their divisions (Maxis, EA Mythic, BioWare, etc...)?
Bioware is done with there game i hope both them and lucas arts give EA no power over the game at all same with mythic studios because it will happen there as well.And im sorry about postiong this but it has to be aired it has been a concern for alot of ppl in the past about EA.
I believe BioWare is already owned by EA games and I know that EA Mythic (Mythic Studios) is already owned by EA that's why its called EA Mythic, thus they get their funding from EA and its developers & employees are paid by EA, so EA has unlimited power over them.
Lucas Arts, is an Independent (and very profitable) company, if George Lucas continues to privately hold the company, I am sure they will not be bought out by EA.
People, The Sims Online / EA-Land is over! That is it... Their is nothing left except this community and the many memories of the past, what 5 or 6 years now?
It was JUST a video game, you can not get obsessed about a video game. IF you are, then you need to shut down your computer and go out to the real world. I understand that everyone made very many friends, but their is no reason you can not just chat on AIM, YIM, etc...! You can go to other free online games if you wish.
The Sims Online will never be back, however we never know if they ever plan on making a sims related online multi-player game.
My advice, just ****ing whining in-front of the computer how bad EA was/is. Because as long as they continue to make billions, they will not go away. Shut of you computer and go outside and if you cant do that, then you need help.
Also, btw, prof-reading posts before posting helps make your argument and your self alot more convincing. No offense intended...!
