You know, I think it may have gone down for maintenance or something. As I was trying to search for something Sims related and the site just didn't come up for me.
This part of the site -
https://www.thesims.com/ works fine, but when you try looking at the forums, it just spins for awhile and then I get this message:
Something has gone wrong.
We've run into a problem and are unable to handle this request right now.
Please check back in a little while.
-----
I tried looking at their twitter -
https://twitter.com/TheSims to see if they mention anything and I'm not seeing any message saying down for maintenance.
Looking at EA Support's Twitter -
https://twitter.com/AskEASupport and finding no message about EA Sims Forums down for maintenance either.
So I'm not really sure what's happening.
