Opening this thread to allow discussion of this announcement.

Andy99TradeZ · January 10, 2019 1:58PM

Alot of those threads that were on the main pages will be alot quieter now

Azof · January 10, 2019 2:00PM

Poor change IMO. A lot of us have been on XCC for years and dont really care for FUT much at this point but more the community aspect.

You're still welcome to discuss whatever you like (within the rules), just in a different forum, the discussion doesn't have to stop.

But having the FUT forum to discuss FUT seems logical to me.

I understand that but were the few OT threads really that disruptive?

People have been chatting about fifa and OT in tandem in xcc since before I joined forums in 2011 and its never caused any real issues so why change it now?

The OT section has always been dead in the water, maybe whoever made this decision will think it will revitalise it but I dont see it.

Antparry92 · January 10, 2019 2:15PM

Ridiculous. So all the lounges are now being moved. Great. Make them even more obscure so new guys won’t join in

C’mon Azof, it’s too logical and works to well for their liking

Look how few people have read the rules on xcc, sub 1k views on the thread. Even less people are going to read about these changes an it is just going to create more work for the mods who seem inadequate as it stands at the moment

Shshj · January 10, 2019 2:25PM

Such a silly and pointless change. So many people have left the forums over the last few years for various reasons such as this. It may not seem like such a big deal but like others have said, OT and real football discussions have always been a part of the XBCC and it has never caused issues?

There's a very good sense of community in the XBCC thanks to the diverse subjects of conversation. General discussion, real football etc. have all gone to ❤️❤️❤️❤️, mostly thanks to trolling kids who make pointless threads and mock each other constantly. Making changes like this will only accelerate this forum's decline.

Have already said this. Are they going to moderate every non FUT post in the XBCC section.They’re gonna have so much work on their hands or they’ll be banning all the old/guys that contribute a lot to the forum. It adds so much to the forum having people talk about football along side FUT

Bobb · January 10, 2019 2:26PM

Bad change

Chubbs · January 10, 2019 2:30PM

Really going to ruin the community aspect that so many enjoy about the FIFA forums.

Ryno · January 10, 2019 2:44PM

Can't wait for those threads to die. Congrats guys! Great choice

Summer69 · January 10, 2019 2:48PM

I don't like this change so im against this move

Currieman · January 10, 2019 2:48PM

Awful, awful decision.

Chubbs · January 10, 2019 2:49PM

Every thread in XBCC is now locked for me. Anyone else getting this. I mean it doesnt say its locked but it wont let me reply.

Same, checked GD also same.

Its probably so they can move all the threads over to this graveyard without interruption

Should be fixed now, can you check again? @Scutch @Andy99TradeZ @Antparry92 @Noo @Azof

Scutch · January 10, 2019 2:58PM

Yeah fine now mate. @EA_Andy

We're just working on some permissions at the moment across the forum so you may see this happen a little. Shouldn't take too long.

Maybe listen to your customers for once

not a single poster above thinks it is a good change

SupaNoodle1990 · January 10, 2019 4:40PM

Most people including myself won’t bother going to other sections of the forum, so this change will kill a lot of good threads.

There’s a reason a lot of us stay in our section. I only ever leave XBCC for the football league thread, and that is a rarity.

Davisto · January 10, 2019 5:09PM

Why try to fix it if it ain’t broke
