Is There a Set Amount of Posts?
Hi, I'm just wondering if there is a set number of posts any one person is allowed to make on any given day. I ask, because lately I've run into a popup telling me my post didn't publish because I had exceeded the number of posts in a day. Seriously? Unfortunately, I had only replied to about maybe six posts, and when it came to responding to replies to posts I had written, I found I couldn't respond! People get their feelings hurt when they go out of their way to reply to something you've written, but you don't acknowledge the fact with a reply, So, in order to avoid this uncomfortable situation, I would like to know what the limit is, please.
[Sims 4 Bug Forum] - Adding "Awaiting Additional Reports" Category to Sidebar
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.How 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 forums
Unable to authenticate on EA Forums
Hi, For several days now, I'm not able to authenticate to EA Forums on most of my devices. This PC I'm using now is the only one (It's my work computer) who can but I think it still have cookies. On my personal computers, I could connect just by clicking on connexion button but now I'm asked to authenticate (I suppose cookies hav expired), I enter my email and password but it doens't work at all, all I have is a page with an error message about not being possible to authenticate. Of course, I have clean caches, reboot, try several browsers, accept cookies again, etc. My EA account works fine on other EA websites and in EA App but not on the forums. I'm in France (sorry for my english) so I thought my country was bannished but it doesn't work with Opera's VPN either. Thanks for your help.
Feedback ideas (i hope this feedback is allowed?)
I know you can scroll with the topic you're looking for and you have a search bar to look for things you're looking for but it becomes slow over time the more i scroll to a certain game category (it doesn't have to be the category i often use and i bet i can speak the same for the others) So my question is: is there an option so you can click on pages rather than scrolling? I took a screenshot of it but maybe like something like this? Maybe even a random page option so you can click on the number pages? It's not just the topic you're looking for but i also want that option in the comments (same reason as the above one, when scrolling it becomes very slow over time) I hope we have that option and if not: is it okay to add number pages as an option in settings? (I took a screenshot so you'll figured where this comes from) By the way it can still be optional (similar to dates: "hours/days/weeks/months/year ago" and "certain date, month and year" except this time it's the pages and scrolling option) It's just a suggestion of course so i hope the team don't feel attacked by this?
Content Not Published when trying to post in the forum
Today I was going through my notifications and responding to posts as many do, when all of a sudden, this happens...... It is hard enough to keep track of where I am at in my notifications because when I look at them once, they ALL get marked as read. So when going back in it is a real pain to find where I left off. So this happening and saying try again later, when later I will probably have more notifications and then really have to spend some time to figure out where I was, is just terrible. Why would we be penalized for replying to existing posts we participate in? Maybe I could understand if we were limited to how many new posts we could start within a certain time frame but this is just bananas to me. I have posted before about the problem of all notifications being marked as read when you go into them. If that was fixed this wouldn't be such a big deal. Not to mention it would be time savingly awesome.
Small Forum Feedback
1. Date Display Style does not make different when you go to My Setting-->Preferences then you will see Date Display Style. I have try them both Relative and Absolute and did not see the different on my Profile. Can you look into it? 2. like the EA Forum Website but like to see more improvement. like EA forum Profile background change to black or cool BF4 background. Right now it just White background. So maybe add option to change it to different background? 3. Avatar on choose From Gallery🖼️ can you please look into add Star Wars again to the Gallery? Introducing custom avatars. | EA Forums - 12048417 Here is my small Feedback for EA Forum
Can't Access The Sims 4 Bug Reports Archive
Often I search up The Sims 4 bugs on google and the results link to archived bug reports, however, every time I try to open them recently the EA Forums say I don't have access to that page or it doesn't exist. I've attached a screenshot of the message. Is there a reason the archive is no longer accessible? There are many bugs that weren't fixed yet that are there, and some have workarounds in the comments that are hidden due to that. I first noticed this on August 12th, and haven't been able to open the archive since. I was able to access it just fine on August 2nd, so it's a recent change. Edit: I've tried chrome, firefox and microsoft edge, so not a browser issue.
Addition of World Tag for The Sims 4 Bug Reports
Hello! I think a World tag is missing from the available tags. For example I was just making a bug report about a world VFX which doesn't really fit any of the categories. I also know of a friend who made a report about sims going through the terrain in Innisgreen, which is also world related. It would of course be a somewhat more obscure tag, but worlds are their own thing both in game and file wise. Maybe it goes under something else internally I don't know about, but I think the addition of a World is needed.
Possibility to edit my "optional" Profile Info is gone
As it says here in: Your EA Forums Profile, Avatar & Settings "optionally fill out some details about yourself." As I added some Info "about me" to my EA Forum Profile in the past, I can now not see these settings anymore in my settings nor the line I added to edit it. These "optional" settings are gone and do not show in my account settings anymore. So I can no longer edit my "optional" (about me) info. Has these settings been removed or is it a Forum bug?
Loading large discussions is very slow, almost unworkable
I’m not sure if this is already reported, but when you visit a discussion that has a lot of replies, it progressively takes longer to load the replies. At some point it takes so long that it becomes unworkable. Some form of pagination would be so much better than just keeping all replies in the current view and just increasing the page size. This already becomes cumbersome in discussions with 50 or more replies. I’ve tried to browse a discussion with over 300 replies, but just gave up because it took way too long to load.
Content not published, maximum number of posts published
So I'm in a Sims forum that has many, many repeat posters and sharers of their builds and designs however my latest one says I've reached the maximum number of posts??? There's people who post on every single thread, they've certainly posted more than me so I doubt there's and actual limit to this? Any help?
