    @thesinkingcity Hey I know this account hasn't been active since the end of January, I guess I'll throw in @Frogwares too. I bought the game and it will crash immediately. I have tried every trick suggested online and nothing works. I downloaded it through @OriginInsider

    @OriginInsider Hey since You service is setup for Microsoft one drive, especially @TheSims -4... why not have it set to automatically delete thumbnails, etc. from the gallery from one drive, & dropbox?!? It's annoying to have to tell it to delete 100s of files so often!

    @OriginInsider Hi Origin I had bought a bundle from your website for sims 4 but for some reason they changed the expansion pack from student life to cats and dogs. But the problem is I already have cats and dogs so now I have paid twice for an expansion pack

    @OriginInsider Why is Origin trying to get me to update my store to a country in Europe? Fix your sh*t! US customers being only given a choice to use an EU store is wrong, especially when your regional preference is United States.
