So what's the deal?

I and many others here have got some serious questions about the forums, the lack of professionalism, and the need for information that is not being communicated to the users.

Are we not allowed to discuss SecuROM or DRM at all in the forums anymore?

What is the situation with the silent locking and deletion of topics going on? Shouldn't there be a standard?

Is there somewhere in particular this topic should be discussed?

Can we get moderating team leads that communicate with their users?

Never forget what's going on here today. You'll want to include that in your decision making should you chose to buy another product from EA and/or Maxis.

We are happy to support healthy exchanges on the forums. And people will only get banned for breaking the rules.

Discussing DRM is not breaking the rules - and as long as it is a civil conversation, it's cool with us.

There's a thread about online accounts at: http://forum.spore.com/jforum/posts/list/2897.page

Please feel free to discuss DRM there - we'd like to keep this to a few posts so that people who are here to talk about the game don't have to sort through all the DRM posts. This thread will be locked - so feel free to post on the other thread.

Thanks.
