    Oh yeah, just switched to Eastern Time Zone from Central a month ago and still getting used to it. I'm so used to Pacific being two hours behind me, not three. o.o

    Hmm... The double spoiler thing isn't working there... Sometimes it reveals sub-spoilers, sometimes it reveals all spoilers... I'll have to rework my Ultimate NPC Making guide there...

    Well, it’s here! @EA_Cade were images supposed to transfer? I’m just seeing Imgur links. Maybe it’s because I’m on an iPad???

    @MrPlumbob It's not just you, image links do not work.

    And the Sims 3 forum has no sub-forums! I'm not gonna ask for a lot, but atleast maybe a general forum and a creative forum.. to start with.. ;)

    Well that's... different.

    Looks like images didn't work after all. The interface is going to take some getting use to.

    I’m also hoping for TS3 sub-forums later on. 🤞

    Ugh! How do I get to the last post in a discussion? I don't want to read through posts that are five months old. Clicking see more over and over is annoying.

    I want to see unread posts. Is that going to be a thing?

    Also, no avatars!

    Sorry to be so grumpy.

    @Sprottenham yeah. Biggest thing I wish, is that sims 4 creative corner had subcategories. I do see a “tag” option, so maybe that’ll help? Not sure what it’s for yet…

    @BariSaxy that was one of the first things I checked. Maybe, hopefully sometime in the future???

    Click on “most liked” on the forum thread, and change it to “newest”. That’ll put the newest post at the top. Kinda miss pages though.

    Nobody post in List of Traits in The Sims 4 discussion yet! I'm waiting for the spam timer to be over.

    Just one post and you're on the timer.

    Ah, isn't it a fantastic message?

    A tag option may be a way to organize things, but I still think that sub-forums is going to be a lot cleaner! Story telling threads at the very least should be in their own sub-forum and not lumped together with everything else!

    Hi everyone! If you've had issues with images migrating over, I've found by editing the discussion, copying the link that's been left in the post, clicking the camera and selecting insert picture from image URL and pasting the link in there it works immediately. Not sure why, also some of my posts have images and some don't but I'm just going to edit as I go. It's so strange seeing things from March as the most recent! :joy:

    there's a limit on how often you can post? how many minutes?

    Yup that's real cute. Only Heroes get avatars.

    I don't think I'll ever be a "Hero" on EA forums, so there goes that plan.

    I don't know. At one point it took seconds, and now it takes more minutes.

    I can't use spoiler tags in replies too...

    Underneath the first post in a topic there is a dropdown list, with options for Most Likes, Newest and Oldest. Select Newest and it will reorder the responses from well, newest to oldest. Not ideal, IMO, but it works for the moment.

    @EA_Cade Thanks for the link to the new Forum.
    I think everything new requires getting used to and I will probably spend some time getting to know the new EA Forum. However, there is one thing that immediately catches my eye and surprises me.
    How is it that almost everything is sorted by 'The most' such as Most Recent, Most Viewed, Most Replies, Most Likes. It is of course very nice for those who already have a lot of followers and likes, but for someone else it seems like a killer. On a forum like X, you're practically invisible and dead if you don't have a whole bunch of followers. I'm afraid the same thing is going to happen here.
    As I said, it may be because I can't find my way around yet, but I need to voice my concern out loud and hopefully become wiser.
