Chat to be Discontinued
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. These sites are not controlled or moderated by Maxis but may suit the needs of our more loquacious fans: The Sims Resource, Sim Gateway, Sims Extreme, World Sims and SimsZone (German), or feel free to use the “Off Topic” portion of “The Sims” bulletin board as a way to catch up with your chat buddies. However do not despair; we will be hosting Maxis moderated chat events with the game developers in the future.
