The error message I get is none of these, instead after being prompted for a while with Invalid user login (which was obviously an error since I could log in just fine at the spore website)
I now get prompted with this message:
"There was an error connecting to the spore servers. Your computer might be offline or your internet connection may be having problems. Check your connection or visit Spore.com for additional assistance or server status."
I have 4 out of 5 internet connection bars, please help. I even tried posting my issue at the spore website but for some reason I'm not allowed to post.
Hi @JC787 ,
That's the bug report from a server , which is still in maintenance work.

That means
You can't play online
Login isn't possible (Sporepedia)
Possible a login to www.spore.com
Upload / Download of creations doesn't work
Sporepedia is completely down

I hope that answered your question
Will the servers be coming back online or is Spore dead?
I was able to log in just a moment ago and working OK for me. hopefully it should work for you. Spore is not dead yet.
its great to play spore again
I been waiting for a game adviser for a very long time, it seems I'm not going nowhere and I can't log in myself. I haven't had this issue with login into my game early in the year. I'm now continuing to have this issue I have installed the game since early this morning. But it is saying the same thing on my end with a server issue. I wanted to know how long will it take get this issue fix?
please read the latest status from 9th October 2015
- 9th October 2015 - We are almost within reach of passing the servers to our QA department for final checks ahead of bringing the service back online. The length of testing time will depend on whether they find anything in their sweep.
Are the servers still having problems. As of 17Oct15, my daughter is having the same issue. I reset the password, and still cannot connect.
i need help with spore any time i try to make a account it gives a text that says . the email address and password don't match anything in our system . please try again;if you continue to have problems, please contact customer support. can you help me ?

I'm getting the same error message: "There was an error connecting to the spore servers. Your computer might be offline or your internet connection may be having problems. Check your connection or visit Spore.com for additional assistance or server status" every time I try to log on in game, but I can log onto spore.com just fine. I've already opened the ports listed in this thread, any ideas?
Hi @Wilosaur,
Delete the prop.file, may help this already!
To fix this issue, try browsing to the Spore folder and remove the login.prop file by following the instructions below:
- Double-click on My Computer.
- Double-click on the C: drive.
- Double-click on Users.
- Double-click on your User Name.
- Double-click on AppData.
- Note: The AppData folder may be hidden. To unhide it, go to the Control Panel and click on Folder Options, then on View. Check the box beside Show hidden files, folders and drives. Then click Apply and OK.
- Open the Roaming folder
- Double-click on Spore.
- Then double-click on Preferences.
- This folder should contain the login.prop file. Right-click and delete this file and restart Spore.

That didn't work for me. Any other ideas? Same error message "problem with your internet connection"
Well, its officially june 2106 and said server is still not connecting. I doubt they intended to keep the server online.

I made the Way with the Steam Code Paste in Origin and the Game is Now in Origin.
But when i Start my Game (I buyed on Steam) it says when i try to Connect with my Origin Account
