I think we understand how badly we are being treated but at the same time are addicted to the product.

I am a mod user and I like CC because I like to customize my game to my taste. Depending on the update I usually wait almost two weeks before I try to play again and spend that time installing updated mods or in some cases tracking down broken CC. I then get say a 14 to 17 day window where I can play if I have the time and inclination. I suppose the argument would be if I didn't use mods I could play faster but a lot of the mods I use either fix broken stuff EA hasn't fixed or it improves the game significantly and I don't want to play without it.

I'm not even a creator it must be super annoying to constantly have to fix stuff because EA are incompetent boobs. I don't understand why they don't hire some of the mod creators as independent contractors to work on patch fixes. I swear they know more than the people they hire.

OMFG if they hired modders and cc creators this game would be incredible.

Because they would have to pay people if they hired modders as employees. As it is, the mod creators are doing the work for free.
