Re: EA Forums links are not navigating

I got the game update today and everything is fine, except something that was supposed to be fixed is not fixed. So I am trying to get to the bug forum to report it. When I initially arrive there I can click and read a post, Then I go back to the main bug forum and click the big blue button in the upper right to report a bug, and nothing happens. Then nothing clickable will function. I can't click to read any posts, change forums, or anything. 

I test posted in another forum after closing the tab and reopening the forum in a new tab. The first post I made didn't seem to go through when I went back two hours later to post an update. So I reposted and it finally took, and then suddenly the post from two hours ago was showing so I deleted the second post. Then I went to a screenshot forum I participate in and posted there and that went smoothly. So I went back to the bug forum to again try to report a bug, and same thing happens again with the page seeming to lock up and become non-functional. 

I mainly use chrome browser but I switched to edge earlier for testing and the same problem occurring there as well so I don't think it is a browser issue.

Initially I was worried that maybe I was banned or suspended from the forums for a period of time because I had posted an update on a bug report yesterday or day before and I received an email to my inbox that said I had violated forum policy or something very similar. No idea what that was about and still have no idea what it is about because nobody has answered the reply mail I sent for that. However, I did not receive an email from EA about being banned or anything, which I understand by researching that I would if that were the case. Just figured I should mention this because I didn't have any problems posting in the bug forum until this occurred.

So I am just stumped and hope someone can help because I sure as heck cannot figure out what is going on and have no idea and couldn't find a better place to post this than here. 

LIsting this with tag of LAG because nothing else feels close to appropriate,

    Just posting an update on my problem. I figured out that if I click a link while on the bug forum main page, and then click to refresh the page, it will load whatever I clicked on. Whether it is to read a post or report a bug. This is extremely strange as this problem only occurs on the bug forum main page. Every other sims 4 forum works just fine and I have not noticed any problems when visiting other websites.

    I am finding the same issue. I have a major bug in my game and wanted to report it. When I select the blue icon to report a bug nothing happens and if I try to select anything else on the forum after that... like selecting another post within that bug forum or going back to the main page for the Sims 4 forums nothing happens and everything acts like a freezing glitch. 

    LOLOL... what irony. We want to report a bug that is breaking our games and now we can't post in the bug forums because that is broken too. It's got to be an EA thing. LOLOL
