Access Denied - Can't enter discussions
There's been a few times now in the sims 4 forums where I cannot enter a discussion. I try clicking a threads in the General Discussion and Creative Corner of the forums and I am sent to the main page of the EA Forums with this messageSolved144Views0likes8CommentsAbout Online Security Letters
Previously, posts were submitted to the "Information Hub," but since 2026, they have been moved to the "Community Discussion" section. Because posts tend to get buried and are harder to find in the Community Discussion, this is a suggestion to return to the Information Hub. Thank you for your consideration.SolvedORANGE-EXPRESS15 days agoSeasoned Ace90Views0likes3CommentsWhy are my posts suddenly tagged with "Approved"
As of today I noticed all the posts that I can see of mine, suddenly have some sort of an approval tag. Is this a new feature? Or have I somehow got flagged as spam again, and reapproved? (despite me being a member for 13/14 years, I was marked as spam once several months ago).SolvedHollownessDevour24 days agoSeasoned Ace219Views3likes5CommentsEA Forums links are not navigating
I am on the EA Forums for The Sims 4 Bug Reports and was trying to submit a new bug related to the Lost Legacies event. None of the navigation links on this forum seem to be working. They change the URL, but do not navigate to the new URL. I have to Reload the page or directly navigate to the changed URL from the browser Nav Bar. I am on PC and using Chrome browser. I checked on another EA Forum and the navigation there works as expected, but The Sims 4 Bug Reports forum is not navigating.SolvedZifion1 month agoSeasoned Traveler319Views18likes9CommentsFeedback
There is no way to send message to anyone. there is no options to comment the original post with “how to send files” and I can’t tell in any other way than in comments to other posts. And this one is the closest to original topic. we can delete this discussion from this comment but please please somehow let’s mention how to send messages. There is no explanation anywhere how just to send it. I tried so many times.Solved81Views0likes2CommentsRequest about 'Follows & Notifications' section in forums
Hi, EA team Every time I unfollow a thread that interests me as that was resolved or fixed, I'm sent back to the first page of the list, which is very annoying. Is it possible to change this behavior or to allow me to select by page number? Currently, the pages are sent sequentially, so as the list grows, it takes a very long time. I'd like to reduce the amount of data, so I'd like something done.SolvedPick-a-boo_doo4 months agoSeasoned Ace174Views1like4Comments[Known issue] Error viewing and downloading attachments

Hi, I've seen posts saying to use EA Help to be able to change the avatar but there is nothing in the help section about changing avatars for forums. I followed the directions given in google but all I see is a gray smiley face and nothing can be clicked or edited. Was adding or editing avatars completely disabled?Solvedsuceress4 months agoSeasoned Ace69Views0likes2CommentsEA entire website SLOW on Firefox browser
Please kindly fix this issue. Happens only on this browser, tested without any extensions, still occurs. Most parts and sections loads painfully slow and takes the clicking ability away. Not going to switch my browser because it is occurs only on EA main and sub websites. Can barely post anything or read on new ea forums. I think that pesky emoji addon integrated onto forums is the reason, who knows. Latest build of everything on my computer including GPU drivers clean install and Windows 10 22h2. Installed via DDU clean install including AMD chipset drivers everything. It is occurs only on EA site anyways. Older forums and Origin was working just fine. Don't change things that is not needed to change in the first place honestly. It took EA to fix major issues with EA app MONTHS. God knows when they fix this too. Another day, another problem with EA.Solved122Views0likes4CommentsThe forum is maxing out everyone's CPU
For some reason the forums are maxing out the CPU on my Google Pixel 7 smartphone and Windows 11 Intel i7-8700K desktop. In Windows Task Manager one of the CPU cores is maxed out at 100% usage while browsing the forums. All the forum pages are slow and laggy due to the maxed out CPU. It seems like there's a JavaScript bug causing everyone's CPU to max out. This is happening with the latest version of Google Chrome Web Browser on Windows 11 and Android 16.Solved129Views0likes5CommentsWhere is the section with all my old badges earned?

I don't know where else to ask this but can anyone help me out? I created the initial post for a new challenge I'm doing, then pressed reply to post the first chapter. That worked, however every time I press reply to post the first chapter, I get the warning "Media Upload in Progress" and it won't do anything. I tried over a number of hours yesterday, no progress, and it's still doing the same thing today.

Hi, Around 600 bug reports have been moved to a new category for the Sims 4, called "Awaiting Additional Reports". While I understand the purpose of the new category, it hides many bug reports and it's not as accessible anymore as before. It would be great to have this new category added to the sidebar (In "Featured Bug Statuses") for easier reach, better visibility and also transparency.SolvedNerdyDollS47 months agoSeasoned Newcomer308Views20likes1CommentHow do we request forum staff to help with a specific game?
Tried opening a more specific version of this and you guys just moved it to a different forum, so trying again. how do we actually get someone to pay attention to the players of a game and their needs/critical issues? I know EA loves to ignore any bugs that don't cost them money, but c'mon now I shouldn't have to resort to BBB complaints to get assistance when you have these official forumsSolvedlittlemac20147 months agoSeasoned Ace102Views0likes4Comments
