Dang, sounds like Teambuilder is absolutely messed.

 

Maybe it would be easier to just release something brand new at this point.

 

This is crazy.

@raiderman15  Gaia Flash Framework is used to design sites with Adobe Flash player, it is not an alternative flash player to Adobe.  It is open-source and free to use framework created by Steven Sacks to design websites easier with Flash player as an alternative to paying someone like Adobe themselves for licensing to use their framework.  So basically, EA went cheap, or rather free, for the Teambuilder website and used the Gaia Flash Framework to create Teambuilder with dependencies back to gaiaflashframework.com.  When Steven Sacks let the gaiaflashframework.com domain expire, which happened at the beginning of Sept. 2018, it caused the Teambuilder website to quit functioning properly because the coding was dependant on that domain.  If you look into Steven Sacks, you will find that back at the beginning of Sept. when his sites went down he was asked on his own forum about NCAA 14 Teambuilder going down because of gaiaframework.com going down, he explains that the domains expired for his websites and specifically stated that the websites would have to be recoded.  So Gaia Flash is still available open-source but it cannot be coded with the dependencies to gaiaflashframework.com like EA did.   EA has a 3rd party company working on the issue to recode the Teambuilder website.  We do not know who the third party company is, nor do we know if EA hired them and is paying them or if they were actually given the rights to the Teambuilder website, there is mumblings that this might be the case.  All in all, we have no idea about the third party company, nor their relationship with EA and/or the Teambuilder website.  In EA's defense on using Gaia Flash Framework instead of paying for a license, we would never given this a second thought or cared, or for that matter we probably would have never even known, that they were using this if the game would have continued to have new releases.  EA was actually working on NCAA 15 until the lawsuits were settled, even after that they honestly thought they were still going to release 15, then talked about 16 still after 15 was canceled.  I'm betting they would have switched to a different framework when Gaia Flash Framework was known to be shutting down.  Who knew back in 2013 when this Teambuilder site was made that in 2019 we would still be playing NCAA 14?  In normal circumstances this game would be old news by now and no one would be playing it, we would all be playing NCAA 19 without a second thought about the Teambuilder website for NCAA 14.

I know that everyone is having the saving issue, but I just wanted to make sure this is what everyone is seeing when trying to look for their own team or public teams: (open file)

@KadeIsBeast27 guess what it’s been down for months and it will continue to be down because it’s never being fixed... the advisors keep saying it. [Removed by CM, no politics please]
