Forum posts not posting properly and half posting.

Has anyone else had this issue since The Sims 4 forums upgraded? Three times now i've made posts only to find they have got lost in the abyss. I hit reply again and it doesn't register. 

Just now i made a full post in the what happened in your game today thread for the sims 4. I hit reply and nothing happens. I hit reply again and only half of my post is posted.

    HawnaKitty Hey there,

    Looking at your migrated post history, it seems like you are playing the Sims 4 and used to participate in discussions and raising bugs.

    If you are unable to post, I suspect it might have been because you were trying to post in the read-only archive that we had created for Sims 4 bugs here: The Sims 4 Bug Reports - Archive | EA Forums 
    Going forward, you want to reply on bugs in this place instead: The Sims 4 Bug Reports | EA Forums 

    You can either reply on existing bugs, or you can raise a new one on the right hand side by clicking on "Report a Bug" or typing in "Found a bug? Check if it's unique" search field.

    HI there,

    I tried sending you a message but I kept getting an error. I used to post my bugs into the Answers HQ page. Is that no longer available. I don't know how to start a new post here. Can you help?

    EA_NilsThank you. Not sure why that post woke up the spam filter. It posted ok originally but when i went to edit a few grammatical errors the post disappeared after saving changes.

    Brd709 One of your posts was caught in the spam filter. I've fixed that, it should be visible now.
    Sorry for the hassle.

    Hi David,

    Many thanks for your reply. I had just finished posting all the images in this post: What happened in your game today? | EA Forums - 4937347

    All of the images posted fine but i noticed a few typos so i went to tidy the typos up and when i returned to the post after hitting udpdate, only the first three pictures of my sim self and his new girlfriend at the bar were the only ones showing up and i had to manually insert the remaining pictures again.

    Thanks for flagging this. It looks like the spam filter was catching your posts. I've despammed them now (so there are duplicates but we'll tidy them up) but I'm quite concerned about the partial post. Any info you have on how that happened would be helpful. 

    I assume you were working on the post content in another tool then copying it in, would this be the case? If so, would the bit that was cut off be the last part you inserted?
