BE AWARE! What TSR *really* do with your account details...

Ok I just have to say OMG!!!
I started a thread over there at BBS asking about What is off Topic
It had like 10 posts in it. All of them civil and about getting information on what was going on and now I went to reply again and this is what I got- http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?&openItemID=item.2,item.43,item.61,item.104,item.41,item.127,item.23&threadID=0ea6ad0e2f27e770347a3734bca405d2&directoryID=2&startRow=1
I took screenshots and will post them tomorrow to show how civil this discussion was but right now I am beat. It is almost 2 am here and I have to work tomorrow.
I just wanted to say I am glad this happened in a way. It gave me a chance to come out of my lurker shell and really say hi to all of you.
Anyways thanks again for keeping this site up and for keeping us *hopefully* former lurkers informed.
Edit- They have a new warning. I hope it was not because of me because that would seriously be lame. There was not one thing wrong with those posts. Everything was civil. But if they want to turn people away from buying their new game...Then fine by me.

I just hope Delphy reported it.
Oh, I'm sure he's already collecting the evidence that TSR left scattered all over the Sims community! ;D
Kudos to him for keeping cool and staying fair, even though the nastiness of this attack is plain to see for everyone!

If my head wasn't spinning from a massive headache and continuing to stare at this computer screen, I would reregister with EA to tell them exactly what I think of their censorship of all these discussions. But as it is, I shall have to do so later or I risk passing out.
It makes me glad to know that there's no way the BBS is truly going to be able to stop people talking about this.
MaryH:
EA is perfectly within their rights to censor/delete/edit any and all BBS content. It's a private site, and they're the ones in charge of it.
But that does not mean the discussion isn't going to go on without them. They're pefectly aware of what is going on, and they're up to their necks in stupidity in aligning with TSR for the Sims 3.
Before this, everyone was willing to grant them the benefit of a doubt with such a dumb move-now all doubt has been removed, and people are truly looking at the marriage of greed and bad taste with second thoughts.
It will impact the sales of Sims 3 if EA continues to be associated so closely with TSR, to the point where nobody with any sense will even touch the game.
Not everyone wants to have their private info possibly used against them in any way whatsoever.
Let the discussion continue and spread. The more people know what happened, the better. Someone will pay for this huge hacking, although right now it is not evident who will pay the biggest price-EA or TSR. Probably both in customers, accounts and money.
Serves them both right!
