May I start by sincerely apologizing to Maxis and their whole team.
Then I would also want to single out and apologize to TheGreenLion and the rest of the sims community. It really started out as an innocent posting (so I thought at the time) and then it just escalated from there. I never never thought that the post would reach so many readers as you will see before the post I have never actually used this forum so I must concede that I was blown away. I accelerated into defense mode when all the rude and negative comments hit me right in the face, losing total perspective of the good feedback and others trying to guide and assist me. I asked for help and advise but focused only on the negative. This is not me, not even close and I have never never humiliated myself like this in any way or form, Being a very withdrawn person, I am now looking back very disappointment in myself for my actions. Listen, there are no real excuses but I had some time to read and reflect and it doesn't matter how I was hurting on some of the feedback, my actions remained uncalled for.
Now that I know how many people could read this post - I'm hoping that everyone concerned will read and hopefully except my apology as it comes from deep in my heart. I am so ashamed of my actions (I was hoping I could blame it on my medication - but that had nothing 2 do with it lol) Believe it or not I even stalked Grant (Mr Maxis himself)! Yeah. I really lost it these past few days and even though we will never meet in person and maybe most will think I'm just humiliating myself again I had to do this today. I'm not the person you all got to know through the posting and I hope that you will see the sincerity in my apology.
As for Maxis favoring me: Wow how ashamed I feel now...guys as I'm typing I'm actually considering deleting this post because I'm soooo embarrassed...It does not matter because I now realize how arrogant I was (considering 2 delete again lol). I also now realize that even my builds might be extraordinary to myself, it might not be for others or maxis. And I am ok with that. As many of you also said, the amount of downloads I get daily should be enough proof to me that I am doing something right.
I am also going to start with the actual in-game and not taking the whole building saga so seriously (I'll still upload because I do love to build lol) but I also want to explore the actual game and see what I've been missing.
I hope that I'll be allowed a fresh start with some kind of acceptance and forgiveness as I'm looking forward to explore my new found tech capabilities on the forum.
GuruGrant, when you feel someone is following or watching you, it's not me, I promise. LOL
I'm so sorry guys...

Again, great builds, will definitely put a few in that one suggestion thread in the lots section (if I can find it

It's ok we are all human here, we all make mistakes and say things out of character. For the most part I've seen a lot of your builds even before this happen, I think you are a very talented builder, and I'm looking forward to more of your creations in the future. I hope my comment didn't come off as rude in the other thread, It was just advice. Happy Simming.
Hopefully you will continue to enjoy you building (you are creative and talented), and you will also enjoy coming to the forums.
As Dragon said (very nicely) we make mistakes, but thank you for taking a step in the right direction to fix it.
Please continue uploading your creations. They are lovely and the fact so many download them speaks volumes.
And please come back to the Forum. We all have off days but we don't all have the courage to admit it as you have done

I dare say that everybody has lost it on this forum too.
It takes a strong person to admit when they did something wrong. So don't take it to heart, Zita. We've all got too serious over Sims at some point, and forgotten that it's a game. My moment was last year. The thing to do is just try to get back to enjoying your game.
Her Origin ID might be different than her forum ID -- for example I'm stilljustme2 here (was justme2 way back when but something happened and EA couldn't find my account so I had to set a new one), and I'm justme22 on Origin (same thing).

I think I'll dig up a can of soft drink/soda water/soda pop to drink while I eat my popcorn.
Btw...for you builders out there...a word to the wise...if I ever download your house because I like the way it looks...by the time I get through remodeling it, it won't look anything like the way it looked when I first downloaded it...

That thread was too hot. I think my eyes burned a little reading it...
But great job admitting and asking to be forgiven OP. You get a cookie!
