Look- The Forum resides on the EA server, which is run by Origin, which doesn't read it.
FIRAXIS has no access to it.

Mostly it has to with html being activated. There is a bad tag or something in one of the threads and it throws everything off. It doesn't hurt anything, though, so it's no big deal (I would rather have html and double threads.

It must be in one of the titels,no? How can a tag in a linked page mess something up?
Or is it just the way the threads are stored?

Lord knows about the mechanics. The only reason I know that this is the case is that I've had discussions with other UBB administrators before about this. The "solution" was to find the offending topic and nuke it and then turn html off.
Does the Game forum have this many double topics?

Yeh, it sure does.
