Re: [FIXED] [GALLERY] Followers & Followed People are gone/ Low Follower cap

I thought it was fixed yesterday, as many people came to my wall saying they could now re-follow me. I added over 50+ of the creators I followed previously. Signed out of game & the EA App. Went back in and guess what? They had all gone!! Once again I am reduced to following 8. Can somebody please come and explain why some can follow over 100, some only 50 but a lot of us less than 10?? Is there a fix or update to sort this? If so what is the ETA?? Any communication is better than just ignoring us.

    When I get on, It seems that my following has dropped low.

  • We all had the issue, so I think that many simmers have lost many followers. Now, we can follow back the freinds we lost in the one we were following.
    Now my question is: will we get all our followers back, or will I have to start like sort of newbie, after 9 years that I bulit my reputation on the gallery? I understand that many are no more active, but it it could be very sad to see what we built for so many years to be ruined. Thank you for replying.

    I have the same issue. I am also wondering if we will get all our followers back. I have been working really hard for my name in the Gallery since the beginning and I know that I am not the only one. It is really sad to see what is happening with the Gallery right now.

    I am so frustrated. It just erased all the artists I was following. I can follow them again but, then it doesn't stick. I tried to follow a bunch and then go to following and nothing, nada, zip... I can't imagine how the artists must feel. Does anyone know when or if it will be fixed? 

  • I have the damn issue and honestly it’s really starting to * me off. At this point I just stop following people because it doesn’t stay and I’m tired of doing it over and over again! EA better fix this now.

    After months of waiting with all these updates I expected the gallery to re-add at least the dang newsfeed. I do not even have my downloads, followers, or following count still. Why?

    I stopped sharing my creations due to this and the searching creations is a NIGHTMARE.

    Oh, that theory on reverting accounts back to a previous time period is true. It reverted my bio back to an old previous bio I had a long time ago.

    Todays patch includes some fixes. Says downloads but sadly not followers etc.  Fixes to gallery will be maintained ongoing without interruptions so hopefully followers will be a part of that soon. We can hope.
