Do people still use the Sims 3 website?

https://www.thesims3.com/community

I see a couple people still using it, but yeah, do you still use this site? (If so, feel free to add me onto it.)

The Sims has always been an important part of my life, and may it continue to be so! Long live Sims!

    I use it for the store sometimes or to download something but it is usually left just as it was. Sadly the forums have been closed on there for a few years now and everything assessable which is a shame

    I only use it to check the Daily Deals or to download sets/items I have already purchased. I go by the same name as here but I am rarely there.

    I still use it for the store because back in the day I purchased quite a bit of store content so I'll go download things when I do a fresh install or just need to reboot my mods folder for some reason. I rarely log in when in game though. It causes weird issues to evolve into my game when I'm logged in. The game runs quite smoothly on my new pc, but I think my ISP is pretty slow and logging into the online feature causes issues for my other household members who are trying to use the internet.

    After the forum section closed I still used it for MyPage but eventually switched completely over here. Now I just use it for the store. No online features.

    I use it to download from the store occasionally.

    I only play logged in when playing games for my two video series that are about triggering badges. When I am logged in I do gifting with others and Ive found there is a whole lot of people there who chat there instead of on these forums. I do feel guilty at times though because I often discover gifts have been waiting for me for long periods. When I find them I send a return gift.

    I just see one or two people clicking Like on stuff whenever I look, but no new posts really except on holidays. Sad 'cause I really enjoyed MyPage on the old site, as clunky as it was.

    I only use it for the store and the exchange. Never play logged in, it does weird things to my game.

    Just assume that every edit I make is because of typos.

    I only use it for the store...and the exchange! Like everyone else! And to check to see what badges I have earned!
    Is there a support group for Simming Addiction? I think I need it... :p

    I check my page now and then.
    I don't normally log in while playing because I'm mostly building. :)

    There are people (creators and storytellers) I like to follow, and so I check my page to see who among my friends has something new going on. I have been playing logged in quite a bit lately, but I don't do any of the Showtime stuff, so I wouldn't be any fun in that regard.

    I use it everyday, as I access these forums from it!

    I check mypage as often as life allows me to, sometimes I check daily, sometimes I won't for months. Social media is the first thing to go when my life gets busy, but I'm glad to be able to catch up when I find the time. I would hate to see it go, as the forums don't have the same sense of community as mypages.

    I always go to the sims 3 site before I go here. I use it, mostly, to look at any exchange lots, new and old, whether it be for downloading or just for inspiration. I upload my own, sometimes, too.

    I own, like, 97% of the store content, so that portion of the site means almost nothing to me, now.

    Unfortunately, mypage isn't as active anymore, but there's still some friends that I've got on there that still post updates, every now and then. I don't post very often, but I've always been fairly quiet, anyway.

    As far as online gameplay goes, I am ALWAYS logged off.
