Hello. I been a simmer since forever and I started a America’s Next Top Model but for sims and the winner win $50 grand prize. How can I get EA to sponsor so the grand prize can be bigger?
Thank you so very much! I am appreciative of this guide as it helps me get a custom to my capabilities of this forum as compared to everywhere else I interact on the web.
Thanks for this thread. I have hit the criteria to become a full member (25 points,15 posts) but I still can't upload a profile picture and am considered a new member. Hmm...
Hi there - newbie here! :) I couldn't find a space to submit feedback, and I also can't create new posts yet so I figured this might be a good place.
I have a notification for new members that is below the "Categories, Discussion, etc.." nav bar. In the notification, there is a link to "Forum Rules" and a different helpful getting started thread posted by @EA_Mage. The link the Forum Rules is broken for me and I am sent to a page that says I do not have permission to view it. This page is also linked in EA_Mage's thread.

Above is the link I'm currently unable to access. I'm not sure if this is a permissions issue related to my current status, or if it's just outdated direction. Just figured I'd share the perspective of a newbie! :p

Soo...You can't post threads no matter how long you've been here until you have 15+ posts or comments.
@Blue_Jay_2003, correct. This is just to cut down on the would be trolls and such as we had several issues with trolls and spammers trying to make this an unpleasant site to be on.

Oooohhh, that makes a lot of sense! I thought it was kind of annoying at first but eh, not as hard as I thought it would be, kind of helps to learn whats around the forums. Thank you :smiley:

You're welcome @Blue_Jay_2003... And congrats on becoming a full member...
I just have to note the current system is a horrible horrible horrible system.
I understand you're trying to keep things down free but it really screws people over like me who I'm not very into replying.
I do read a lot of these comments in fact I read post all the time but even though I've been on here for 3 years I still am not allowed to post my own thought... it's like telling me shut the hell up unless I participate in your conversations. I'm just not allowed to speak and no amount of time will overcome that for a person like me who doesn't prefer to reply.
I definitely believe after a week or so of being a member you should be allowed to even post one or two post, and then more over time because that's all I wanted I just want one post now and then.
that system would still stop spam but it wouldn't punish members and allow a person to participate without forcing them to reply reply reply when they simply have nothing to say. it's very frustrating
Hi my dear friend @rosemow ! I've been a full member for a while now and haven't successfully added any images yet in my posts. Let's see what happens when I try it:
[img]file:///C:/Users/mary/Documents/YouTubeFiles/Newcrest%20Hospital/Hospital1.PNG[/img]
Is this a proper image URL? It's just the location of the image file on my local PC.
Thanks for your help, Mary

@proffittm30, you will need a photo sharing site to upload your photos to and then you can use their code to share them here since this site won't accept pictures being shared directly from our PC's. Some people will use https://imgur.com/ to post their photos to.
Oh well ... and hello, first off thanks to the people who are still looking at this thread. <3
But also, this is the third EA account I had to create: my actual EA account, the AHQ account (where I have to grind XP to be able to customize my account) and now this one for the Sims Forums (where I have to grind points and comments to be able to even slightly individualize my account). This is confusing and also annoying. (And no, I'm not a computer or web newbie.) I fully understand that it's necessary to protect the boards against trolls and bots but this is way too complicated.
Also, the link to the Forum Rules in the Welcome Notification is still broken. I found the correct link but still... another user mentioned this already about six months ago! Would be nice if someone could fix this. Thanks and greetings. :)

@mamba_lev, if you're having issues with something in the game, then it would be best to post over in the thread that I will provide for you as it's a more recent thread compared to the much older ones that you had commented in.

This bug still exists. Same for me.
@Blue_Jay_2003, correct. This is just to cut down on the would be trolls and such as we had several issues with trolls and spammers trying to make this an unpleasant site to be on.

I have posted a small tutorial in this thread on how I upload them to imgur if that is the site that you want to use.
