    So I put out my mods folder and tried to look if there's a problem with it but no @OriginInsider still say "update sims 4 digital deluxe" even tho I did it 100 times now. I dunno what wrong but since the patch of @TheSims 4 my screenshots won't show up in my ss folder.-

    As we settle in to day 5 without any update from EA. I’ve been stewing a lot on how this even happened. From my research and the fact it has happened to Rickard and now me, does this not speak to security issues on @EA /@OriginInsider ? Apparently this isn’t isn’t a new thing
