This post is solely for those who want to boss me around. I know that some entitled people aren't even Patreons at all. But, I'm done seeing "I pay for...." comments lol

Yep! I'm standing up for myself. Let's do some math! 😛


I work 8-12 hours on a mod a day at least 4-5 times a week minimum unless I am sick, my mental health is bad, there's a family emergency, or I am on break/vacation.

The minimum wage in the US is $7.25. This means if you were my employer and based on the minimum wage of the US you would have to pay me $58-87 minimum a day. That means $232-290 a week and $928-1160 a month.

The only way you could be my boss is if you were paying at least $928-1160 because I do believe my time is worth at least minimum wage if anything. However, my smallest tier is $2 a month and the highest is $15 a month. This means that I am not even getting paid minimum wage from anyone Individually which means I am not going to be bossed around for free or for $2-15 a month.

Also, please stop comparing me to other modders regarding how they do things everyone's life/situation is different: some only have to focus on one mod, some are more skilled, some are just faster, some have a team, and some just have more time.


...And because I am super goofy  I will add a $928 pledge if possible. 💀


Because I still love even the entitled ones:

For FREE I will continue to provide the best content I can create. I will update at the speed that I can at the time whenever patches arrive. I will continue to do my best despite some people's standards of what my best should be. Let's be kind to each other and treat each other like humans...okay? 🖤


More Information:

I am beyond thankful to have as many patrons as I do I was even happy when I only had two. What I am referring to with this post is that there are people asking for faster fixes and faster updates. I do NOT take my time when a patch comes unless there is something going on in my real life.

lmao, some people actually think you owe them anything? Girl, you provide your mods for FREE, you take as much time as you want <3

You work ridiculously hard on amazing mods by yourself AND create youtube content that's super entertaining. Ignore the naysaying jerks. They don't deserve your mods. 💗

Hey Stacie, do not give attention to those who cannot be grateful for the work you put out. At the end of the day, you are NOT an EA employee, which means that you are not entitled to release content for this game. You started this with the kindness of your heart. Don't let any ungrateful b*tches hurt you and boss you around. Thank you for providing us with content that makes this shallow game even more enjoyable.

Plumb

lol, I have no idea what happened here, but good for you! :)

vinesky

I was with you until this. You have 6,867 patreons, (unless this website is lying). If every one of them ONLY pays $2 a month you're getting paid $13,734 a month before taxes. That's roughly $165k a year. So many people get paid far less for jobs that are much MUCH harder. So, please, just be thankful people are actually willing to pay you at all.

I hate that anyone has pressured you or made you feel stressed. I support you, Felixandre, and Ravasheen because I love what you do and how you do it. I wouldn’t want you to change that! Keep on doing your own thing and we will still be here to support you! 🤜🏻🤛🏻💙

As a union steward and officer I love this post!!!

KawaiiStacie

I am beyond thankful I have patrons. This is towards a single individual the few that feel they can control me because they pay $2-15 a month to me. I am no talking to everyone as a group because all of my patrons aren't bullying me or telling me what to do. I am not going to get bossed around or controlled by someone paying me $2-15 a month just because I should be thankful they are paying me.

Actually that's very very low for most of the US. Here in my part of NY min wage is $11.75/hr so you'd make much more than that! I know you don't always feel it but we really do appreciate all you do!!!

Can I say, "screw them" (will probably get deleted) and do what you can do in your own manner. I do not blame you for this post. Some people feel so entitled it's bordering on ridiculousness and they have way too much time on their hands. I enjoy your mods, but these things take time to get them right and I know that. Why others do not is beyond me. I would rather wait for something that is gonna be done right than something that had to be slapped together and go back to be fixed. Take your time, hun. We can wait. In the mean time, don't worry about a few jackasses and keep being you.

You can only do what you can do, Stacie. I think you're doing your best. If they don't feel like you are, they always have the option of canceling their Patron membership. Nobody's forcing them to pledge.

Tell em!!!

Arcadie

Pledging is an option! People don't get to use the "I paid for..." excuse because when someone pledges they aren't paying for a certain thing, they are simply supporting a creators overall work! Theyre being entitled brats, forgetting pretty much all modders strictly do it for the love of it. I'm happy to continue to have the pleasure of supporting ALL the work you do Stacie because I believe you are truly one of the best modders out there. You bring so much life to my games. SOL is one of my must have mods and at this point I couldn't imagine the game without it. And I've gotten so much play time out of the Streamer mod! I literally had an alarm set on my phone for the release of that one because I was so excited for it 😂 Sending you so much love! Never forget you are one of the most talented people we're lucky to have in our community. Thank you so much for all the incredibly hard work and love you put into everything you release!

You're my favorite mod creator, and while I'm sad some of my favorite mods are gone, I know you're working hard on the ones you're passionate about. So what if I have to wait a week or two for a new SoL update? It's not the end of the world! You keep up the hard work! I know (from experience) just how hard coding is (I say as I'm procrastinating a coding assignment)

Anonymous

The reason I pay for your patreon is because I believe you've done an amazing job at Modding a game and that overall makes my experience playing better. Your skills are amazing and in my opinion shouldn't be free. After what I pay for packs from EA, I am more than happy to support you monthly for your continuous efforts. Other people need to realise that if you pay $2 a month that you are not in charge of what the content creator put out, you are merely supporting all efforts of that content creator because you appreciate the content. Until then I will wait as long as you need to put out the same quality content as you always do, because it is well worth the wait. I hope your mental health isn't taking too much of a beating after all this, you come first. Please take care of yourself x

Yasssss......😍 i love it, you tell it like it is..this was the best form of "respect me" in a good way I have seen in a minute. You are freaking awesome for this. People think they can get away with doing and saying what they want. But nope not today. Keep being great my friend❤

IdenticalOskar

I’m sorry people are nasty and rude. That aside, I believe the expectation, at least for the Sims content on Patreon, is more frequent updates/releases of content than you tend to provide. If nothing is forthcoming from creators for a month, they usually pause their billing cycle for that month. There’s nothing on any of your tiers that indicates anyone should expect something monthly, but that’s an unspoken expectation that seems to be accepted by most creators. I don’t think I’ve seen content from you for several months. Unfortunately, I had to remove your content from my game. I also stopped supporting you monetarily - I actually thought you’d stopped creating and was a bit annoyed that you continued to bill. It doesn’t make it right, but this may be why some of your followers are upset. It’s absolutely not okay to get all indignant, mean, nasty, and threatening about your lack of updates. There will always be trolls and I’m sorry for that. My advice for you to at least keep patrons from jumping ship like I did is to provide progress updates or a schedule of some sort. Signs of life. I work with software developers and their clients; communication is key to keeping everything civil.

Don't let it stress you. You do an amazing job with your mods and should be proud nobody has the right to say otherwise. Seriously, the level of scripting quality is amazing. It feels like an extension of the game itself rather than a "mod". If people don't like how you do things they shut up and unsubscribe they are too few and insignificant to give notice. I don't think people don't understand the work it takes to get code to work flawlessly let alone a piece of code/script to work well on another piece of code, that is someone elses.

MuvaSimmer

I can completely understand how you feel but I do feel you could have went about relaying this message completely different. Either way, I admire your skill and still wish to be like you when it comes to mod creating one day. & of course, I still support. Stay safe and stay blessed. Don’t let them affect your mental more than the stress of modding already does. ✨

Honestly the only reason I pay is to support u and what u are doing. I have yet to find someone who makes mods as good as u do. I use to rarely play the Sims 4 until I started adding cc or mods. When I came across ur mods I never thought it would make me wanna play the game again as much as I do now. U create mods that make my gameplay more enjoyable and the sims I play more interesting than the base game alone. U make the Sims more ‘real’ in way. I think that yes, while many ppl are paying for these mods u take the time to create or fix whenever a new patch comes out, NO ONE should feel entitled to being ur boss and telling u when u need to have a mod updated or fixed. I am sure that this takes time and a lot of patients on ur part. Sometimes I don’t even look to see if u have updated a mod, I just play the game until I get a notification that u have made some updates or changes to the current mod I have in my game. Now I kno ppl feel like they are being attacked when obviously, u are not addressing everyone, and that is ok. HOWEVER, if u are the person who feels that way, then stop supporting. It won’t change anything. If u can’t wait for a damn update then jus play the game without the mods until Stacie has finished updating them. Paying is a choice and we all clearly chose to support Stacie, so please jus shut up and enjoy what someone has taken the time, energy and frustration to create to make our gameplay so much better than what EA has been shitting out for the last year.

I got so mad reading your posts. Life is too short! What you provide is a luxury. If others don’t see that, pay them no mind. Seriously, don’t let people put their s*it on you. Send that negativity out the door. Hope you take a long break to recharge.

Anonymous

I can’t believe people would complain about $3 and slow updates. I honestly forget that I subscribe because I don’t even see $3 come out of my account. This is JUST a game guys. The people who create these mods mostly as a HOBBY do not have to take time out of their day to create them or share them with anyone. If anyone can’t understand that people have legit lives outside of work/hobbies then they need a minute to re-evaluate. Instead of being mad at the people who create mods spend your free time yelling at the people who created this basic game that needs a million mods for it to be fun. Keep doing your thing girl. Don’t rush for anyone, if they can’t play the game without your mods then maybe they need to take a week or two off playing and do some meditation anyway.

Minimum wage in Washington State is $13.50, they just raised it this year.

and they owe you time and a half for when you go over those 8hr days or 40hr weeks

appreciate chu

LaShannen Martin

i would like to offer an apology. at one point you took your mods down right after i had paid and was very upset and sent you a long winded message. Which was unnecessary behind $10(like $10 is nothing for me). thank you so much for all you do and i recently pledged again.

If you can't do something, you can't do it. You don't have to explain yourself. But complaining about people who complain about not having something that's expected is not a good look.

Kesha Hardy

You have every right to stand up for yourself and tell the entitled people what you feel. You are doing an awesome job making an unplayable game worth playing. Those who don't appreciate it, will never have satisfaction in life and those who tell you not to say something need to sit down and be humble. Keep doing your thing. Im so happy I have been blessed to support you.

Agreed! You have every reason and right to stand up for yourself. You are choosing to do these amazing traits, mods, etc. and I really really appreciate all the amazing work and effort you have put into every piece you release to us! I don't see how people can be so rude and pushy because if there wasn't you and others doing these amazing things, we wouldn't have them. Thank you for everything and whatever you do in the future on YOUR time and schedule! (Note: I may have lots of questions about some things and those are okay?).

Yes Go Off Queen. It's your life, and no one should be telling you how to live your life. You can take as much time as you need. I just want to be updated on the status of the After School activities mod, but you can just take your time with that too. Your doing a great job, just keep being YOU.

Stand your ground, seriously. We aren't paying you we're maybe buying you a coffee and its' still important that you take your time. This is supposed to be fun for you and I'm super thankful that you have so many amazing mods and that you work so hard to make the game fantastic! Don't let mean and entitled people push you around.

Oh my gosh. I love this post. You go girl. I am so tired of entitled people and their stupid complaints. You keep on doing the wonderful work you are doing and don't let people get you down.

Hey, you're great, and anyone saying that... Really needs to Not act like you're not doing us all a favor by being here. Your mods are amazing, and so are you. Take your time and keep doing what YOU love, not what others want you to do. IMO a final product is always going to be better when it's what you wanted to create vs what others push you to make<3

Hi (and sorry to contact you in this formate)! Yes, I'd like to be your boss, or rather to commission a mod from you. I would like to have a Sims 4 university ball event, roughly along the line of the Prom mod, though obviously with less chaperones and more juice. Unfortunately, I do not have the skill to make events myself. And yes, I'm ready to pay for it. Are you interested?

Liii

your mods are awesome, I bet you can charge people to teach them how to make some mods!
