A community that's 11 years old now has hundreds of reasons to stop being active. In TSW's case, EA putting on a new game that wasn't up for the standards of classic old players is (Like Sims2Playe said) definitely not te reason why this community has to be dead. Heck, almost every single Sims game out there has been called a cash grab. TS1 for releasing complete collection after TS1 was out, TS2 for releasing a lot of stuff packs and expansion packs and expansion collections after TS3 was out, TS3 for almost the same reason as TS2 with also releasing the Katy Perry packs and etc.. But was the community ead in the TS2 or TS3 era? I think not. Why? Because nobody would say 'I'm leaving this wiki because I hate this new game it's such a cash grab EA is such a fat money milking cow that only wants money and its only goal is to raid dumb people to buy new vacation homes and also..' and so on. It could be true though, but it's not and not and NOT the reason why this community is dead.

I remember a lot of users that posted retirement announcements and goodbye blogs but none of them stated the reason being hating TS4 or other games and thinking EA is a cash grab and etc.. (Other than one that was April's Fools). Most of them are because their personal life is coming in the way, or they lost interest in the game.

I don't know, just my point of view...
