On September 8th, 2003 we will be removing chat from the “The Sims” site. Unfortunately, the chat client we were using is no longer supported by the manufacturer. On the bright side many fabulous fan sites offer round the clock chat.

Hello everyone:Let me start off by saying that I was thrilled by all of your responses to my first email. It was great to hear from all of you on an individual basis and realize that you are all as excited about The Sims 2 as we are here at Maxis.

As I promised, I want to share with you as much information about the game as possible leading up to launch. It is also important to me that we provide you, our community leaders, with exclusive information whenever possible. So in that spirit, have I got something for you!

First let me thank you again for being such strong contributors to the Sims' community. As we did 4 years ago when we launched the original Sims, it is our intent here at Maxis to provide to the community with as much information as possible about The Sims 2 leading up to its launch. I am going to communicate directly with you between now and when the game ships and I welcome your honest feedback. Do not be afraid to email me.
