FAO Forum Mods - Knock It Off.
Forum Mods, or Admins. Please ask whom ever is in charge of these very silly NEW forum layouts to knock it off with the ridiculous "Show More" tabs. When you go into a thread you see a some comments, but then you have to scroll down and constantly click on the "Show More" text to load a few more responses, then do the same thing all over again to see more replies. It takes ages to get to the last reply to a thread, and it is really annoying. Why is there no page counter number so you can just go to the last page straight away? What clown thought this was a good idea?JennyB_0103 days agoSeasoned Vanguard128Views3likes7CommentsLog-In Loop
Hi, is this just a new temporary glitch, or is it just at my end? As of this morning, I can't log-in to the EA forums, I get the home page, hit sign in, go to sign in and get the message "authentication unavailable' I've had this before, but can sign in on second go. This time - nope!Jayel-13 days agoSeasoned Ace997Views4likes13CommentsInvalid HTML error when publishing new stories. Please help.
I am trying to post a story with images on one of my threads, but keep getting an error message come up saying: 'This content is not published. Invalid HTML. Please remove this before posting. Lib- sim.' (no idea what the last bit means). The story is pasted in plain text from a Word doc and have tried uploading each image via the option in the bottom bar (From Computer) instead of copying and pasting but it still won't let me publish the story. There is no HTML content used in the story, it's all from my computer, so am not sure why I keep getting a message about invalid HTML content. I am wondering if it's the length that's causing issues, as when I do shorter posts with one or two images, it works perfectly fine. I notice there doesn't seem to be a spoiler option on the bar for new posts/replies after the main introductory post so I can't get the long post into a spoiler. Has anyone else had the same issue when trying to post stories (can't find related topics in Search)? And if so, have you managed to solve it?WhatCobblers5 days agoSeasoned Ace492Views1like15CommentsWe Need Custom Avatars
I don't know why this wasn't implemented. This was a feature on the sims forum and many other forums. I thought this forum was supposed to be an improvement because the old sims forum was supposedly showing its age which is why you guys decided to shut down the sims forum. I'm sorry, but everything in this forum is a downgrade. It's more difficult to navigate through posts, it lacks features as compared to the sims forum and many other forums, and it's visually unappealing versus the sims forum and other forums. Was it really that difficult to keep the old sims forum running? Did you guys really have to ruin a good community? I'm sure a lot of people from the old sims forum won't be making their way to this forum, that's for sure.Solvedrjssim12 days agoSeasoned Ace59Views5likes2CommentsShould be clearer which discussion sections are hidden from public or not
It would be nice to see example some kind of symbol and/or clear indication it's closed discussion section. In regards to playtesting and feedback it would help avoid accidentally leaking details to the public. Also maybe some people would be afraid to post considering they are unsure if its public or closed discussion section. Unsure and don't remember how it was with AHQ but maybe it was clearer there somehow.klikard12 days agoSeasoned Scout38Views2likes1CommentSo, what's up with these bland profile avatars?
Seriously, EA? After being a member for over 10 years and faithfully purchasing EVERY cockle doodle expansion pack, game pack, and kit, all we get for avatars are these VERY BLAND and boring avatars? We fans deserve more!SolvedDJConnemaraDSM12 days agoRising Ace74Views0likes6CommentsEA forum profile account avatar won't change
When I changed my ea forum profile account avatar it has not changed anything here on the main forums, its displaying some random toon which i didnt request. Also, I noticed there are only 12 choices of avatar pix, is this correct? Last month there were many more to choose from, why only 12 this month? Im seeing others on the forum with different pix, and they are new to the forum, yet they have more choice of more avitars. Why is that? tldr: Why only 12 avatars to pick from? Why the avatar is not changing on the main EA forum?SolvedEeekey12 days agoSeasoned Ace49Views0likes4CommentsHow do you get to hero status on here?
I want to get to hero status so I can use my own avatars.Solved49Views0likes3CommentsMass Effect avatars removed?
Used to have Jack as my avatar before the manteneance they did for a couple of days, and now I can't find her. Did EA removed her permanently or can we expect to have ME avatars again? Cause I'm sorry, but I don't like any of the current ones.SolvedValadenthys12 days agoNew Hotshot99Views3likes12Comments- SharpGoblin12 days agoLegend38Views1like3Comments
Suggestion - Profile Pictures/Avatars from Older EA Games
I would like to suggest incorporating profile pictures or avatars from older EA games into the EA Forums platform once it fully launches. This small addition could significantly enhance the overall experience, particularly for longtime fans of EA games. For example, Answers HQ has a diverse selection of avatars but primarily focuses on newer titles. As a member of the Battlefield community, I believe it would be fantastic to have avatars from older games like Battlefield 2 and Battlefield 3 available (this can be said for older NFS tittles as well). While I understand that this may not be a current priority, I feel that this minor enhancement could provide a valuable touch of nostalgia and comfort for many users. I believe it could be implemented easily and would be widely appreciated. I would truly like to hear what others think about the suggestion.Solved61Views1like5Comments- Frn073112 days agoSeasoned Ace67Views0likes6Comments
