A permanent ban affecting mass XBOX players in CHINA
Hello, I am creating this post to report a mass permanent ban on thousands of XBOX players in CHINA, as we received permanent sanctions for 'coin distribution', for most of us never engage in such behaviour, or any other behaviour not allowed by EA's terms of behaviour and user agreement. Although there is no server in China mainland, there are still lots of dedicated FC players in the past many years, many of us spent more than 10,000 US dollar in this game. Since 1-2 weeks ago, many of XBOX players in CHINA were suddenly banned for "violating the User Agreement.", and received another email for 'Coin distribution' one week later. Many of us have submitted more than 3 appeal to request a full review of account activity, without action cancelled on our account. During the first appeal, EA claimed cheating was the reason for the ban; during the second appeal, the response shifted to selling gold coins; and during the third appeal, it reverted back to cheating. Isn't this contradictory? Our accounts are filled with FC Points bought with real money, a carefully built squad, and countless hours of investment. We play WL, rivals, complete SBCs, objectives, and normal manual trading around late January and early February, we never bought or sold coins, never used bots or automation tools, and only performed normal gameplay activities. Chinese players should not be treated in this way. We request a human review of our account activity, and cancelling the action taken on our account. You can also see more details about this issue in this post, where many Chinese players report the same issue: Xbox FC26 Mass “Coin Distribution” Permanent Bans | EA Forums - 13165186 One community manager agreed to flag that post for TOS team, while still not cancelling our ban. In Chinese forum Baidu Tieba, many users also post the same issue, with screenshots below with translation.
Petite Alsace collaboration - Open for participation!
Happy New Year and welcome to another Sims 3 community collaboration hosted by Hidehi2 , Sandraelle and soocoolsim ! Introducing Petite Alsace inspired by picturesque Strasbourg, Colmar and Ribeauville with a dual French and German blend of charming, flower-laden villages and half-timbered homes. We anticipate the completed world will be a lovely addition to your game. Experienced creators (Intermediate+) are invited to join us in creating builds to add to the base world. If you love decorating but building isn’t your forte, let us know and we'll try to build a shell for you. Everyone can experience Petite Alsace taking shape by downloading the base world and installing builds as they become available. Please keep an eye on the "News and Updates" post for milestones and links to new creations as they become available. Constructive comments throughout this event are also welcome, so don't be shy. Without further ado, onto the details below and come join in the fun! LOT LISTINGS Map A: Colmar (Medieval, half-timbered houses with flower-filled balconies) Map B: Ribeauville (Pastel, half-timbered 15th - 18th century houses) Map C: Ribeauville Outskirts (Farming area) Map D: Strasbourg (City area, mix of old and new buildings) Map E: Avenue du Rhin (Wine region) Map F: Route de Alsace (Rural area) CLAIMING OVERVIEW Download the empty Petite Alsace base world created by the talented Hidehi2. Take a look at the available lots using the Map posts as reference (see links above). Indicate you're on board and sign up for your first claim by replying on this thread with your chosen map lot reference # (eg A8). I will update the lists with claims and add download / media links when builds are completed. Every two weeks (around the 1st and 15th of the month) a new claiming period starting with a 'Claiming Day' post will begin. During this period, if you join the collaboration or have a build in progress on Claiming Day, you can claim 1 lot. For ongoing participants, if all previously claimed builds are completed and (no cc) download link(s) submitted by Claiming Day, you may claim up to 2 lots. BUILDING GUIDELINES Please stay within the theme of each map area and overall Alsace inspiration. You have creative freedom otherwise. Inspiration links at the top of this post may be helpful. All / any EA Expansion Packs, Stuff Packs and official Store Items can be used. Free EA Store Items are OK for use. Note: Some are no longer available for download so use at your discretion. NO third-party Custom Content is allowed. Please Custard Check your exported file before uploading to double check. We highly recommend play-testing your build before uploading to ensure no routing concerns and users can enjoy as intended. Do test placement of your final build. This helps identify any potential issues (e.g. windows / floor tiles out of place). To do this... export your build, save your game, delete the existing build, then replace with the exported version from your library. Take a careful look around and fix as needed. It will be useful for players if the Petite Alsace lot address is included in your build description on the Exchange, albeit optional. Do take the time to put your best foot forward to make your build(s) shine inside and out. Just be cautious about using a ton of clutter since that can add to lag when playing. Each build will be showcased with credit in video walkthroughs on YouTube once the world is completed. Once your build is available on the Sims 3 Exchange, please post a reply on this thread including: name of build / map reference and/or address / download link / cover picture / custard screenshot confirming no 3rd party custom content included. Optional! Link to additional picture site / thread. SIMS / HOUSEHOLDS This collaboration focuses on builds since the final world save file will be unpopulated, however we are happy to link to Sims / Households created for Petite Alsace. Petite Alsace builders can submit Sims / Households for their completed claims as well as Townie use. All / any EA Expansion Packs, Stuff Packs and official Store Items can be used. Free EA Store Items are OK for use. Note: Some are no longer available for download so use at your discretion. NO third-party Custom Content is allowed. Please Custard Check your exported file before uploading to double check. Once your Sim / Household is available on the Exchange, please post a reply on this thread including: name / map reference or address (or identify as Townie) / download link / 1 cover picture / custard screenshot confirming no 3rd party custom content included. Optional! Link to additional picture site / showcase thread.

I won the playoff h2h event Super Bowl a week ago and still have not received my reward for winning. I’ve talked to 5 EA reps that tell me the company is aware of the issue but it’s been 7 days and they haven’t made a single post about it and every rep just tells me the “game team” is working on it. Not sure what’s so difficult about giving people who grind out a PvP H2H event the reward for winning the Super Bowl. I’ve contacted them on X too and haven’t received an answer. FIX THIS EA SPORTSPlayers and toxicity
Hi, I've been playing this game for a long time and I'm quitting because of the referees' ridiculous offside calls and the toxic gameplay. Also, there are a lot of cheaters live-streaming and selling cheats on TikTok. I sent you a toxic player; there's a video from before this one too, they keep sharing it amongst themselves and we can't enjoy the game.S7 Towers
Why is it EA can't even get the scoring point system correct in these towers? For example, in the first 10 challenges. It says you get 3 points per TD. Nope, it's 1 point. Now SOMETIMEs you get 3 points per TD but it seems random. Same for the last 10 challenges. It says 9 points per TD? NOPE, it's 6. Because of their screw up it makes the challenges EVEN HARDER!!! Not to even mention Valor Team XII has multiple MULTIPLE MULTIPLE players rated at 99 on both offense and defense! UNREAL! I don't know how anyone can defend EA at this point. ETA: Apparently you get more points for a running TD as compared to a pass. Regardless, it would be nice to have that NOTED IN THE CHALLENGE REQUIREMENTS!! But whatever, my point about EA still stands!
