What is going on with Origin??? I am trying to login but it is telling me to create an account when I already have my account. What do I do? Do I need to contact EA?

That's happened before, but it shouldn't be anything to worry about. The servers are just down again, when it comes back up you should be able to sign in with your original account.

Still happening here.

You've almost got to admire someone who posts an add me message in a thread about how Origin is down and no one can add anyone.

I know, right? That kills me. Do people even bother to read the content of the message before copy/pasting their "add-me.?" And you know what it does? Ensures that I will never add them because they didn't post in one of the thousands of add-me threads already here.

FB is good for some chuckles right now. The natives are getting out the pitchforks and firing up the kilns to get the tar going.

I'm annoyed but since I expected it, I'm not as ticked off as I was yesterday. Just even more determined to not spend a single penny more on this game.

Yep same here for me

Look guys, this is the third day in a row at almost the same time this has happened. You should by now know this is going to keep happening because they are not fixing the problem. They are patching it.

So spend money at your own peril, just don't whine about it because you knew it was buggy. Also, adjust your way of playing to work around these issues.

Or keep stressing yourself out.

After yesterday, I had a major game playing adjustment and now it's not that big of a deal. What we have learned is that if you don't do anything drastic or stupid that your Springfield will be there waiting for you later tonight.

I got really ticked off yesterday when people kept saying "relax", my husband knows to never say that around me because nothing gets my Cuban blood flowing hotter than somebody saying relax when I'm in the middle of a tantrum (HAHA).

So I won't say relax but I will say just shake it off and figure out a way to keep playing while working around this issue in the future.
