b4: "Some players have had poor grasp of computer systems and grew lazy in logging and haven't been able to get into the game because they forgot the username/password combinations they used that had been stored for them."

s this a justified reason to change the login system? & does that constitute a good reason for loyal, hardworking, dare I say Paying players to lose their accts? I'm not justifying loss of login creds but at least we should get a warning or something prior to institution? I have even forgotten my own personal acct log passwords & even emails due to relying on subs for so long to reduce constant login, logouts - it's just convenient, logical & efficient.

I don't know that it is (or isn't) a good reason as far as EA is concerned as they haven't shared the reasoning with me (or many others it seems).

I would like to review the specifics of the ToS. Anyway, I'm not arguing, I'm just trying to understand so we know what we're dealing w/. The question is why the change & why now? It's diff't when you are an active player vs. someone who isn't active or has never played & even more diff't when you have multiple accts in whichever form that may be, but yet even more drastically diff't when you factor multiple servers which most of us have & I would say EA likes & even encourages. In other words, convenience would be an important factor for EA to include in it's all-around design of the game.

Why now, I've no idea and it seems no-one else does either.

But let me back up. When you say 'transfer' that sounds more like a sub than 'give full acct' to someone. And no way can EA or anyone else block sub or choice of. We would be true **** to sign over all our rights of our personal virtual property, esp. a paid for (funded) acct, due to a biased ToS designed only to protect EA & not the player. But I see what you're saying about 'controlling player' & setting the security secrets of an acct & you are right, that is true. Thanks

Subs should still be working, no new login required if the sub hasn't been cancelled.
