Shouldn't there also be a question mark after, "Who cares if you differ"?

It doesn't exactly take a computer scientist to tell Win7 and OS X apart at a glance.

No, because it was a statement, not a question. No one cares what that moron neorufio says. Are you suggesting otherwise? No? Thought not.

I do agree with disagreeing with neorufio, and his mansplainin ways. Isn't he supposed to have a rabid brony avatard?

He did get voted one, and then he applied it himself, so there was no punishment application. I think one of those lurkers who donated ought to step up and use its money for evil, instead of all this "I am just a lowly lurker and I don't need thanking" bullshit.

Dude, you didn't recognize the difference between Windoze and mac in this one person's screenshots. Who cares if you differ. I feel like someone needs to slap an "unreliavole" label on you.
Right, because the only person to give a correct assessment of the problem is unreliable. I corrected your statement, by the way. There is no reason to have duplicate files in places where they're not doing anything. Skadi was giving unreliable information, not I.

Oh look, here is a screenshot of my perfectly working config.


I didn't realise the OP was using the mydocs method not the install directory method.

Do we need to consider putting NeoTard in the Dome?

Isn't the install directory method outdated?

Is there any disadvantage to using the new method over the old method? Does one way make the game run slower/faster than the other way?

I didn't know you could still use the old method. But apparently since some here are using the old method, I assume it must still work.

The old method still works fine. Pescado uses it, and I never bothered doing it the new way. The old way seemed easy enough for me anyway.

The only "advantage" it gives is that it is the "official" way that EA promotes, and there is more support for troubleshooting it if you've fucked it up.  As far as game performance, etc., there is no real difference between the two setups, if they are set up correctly.  I do think the new way is a little more convenient for the casual gamer, since it involves messing about in the Documents folder, as opposed to the game installation.

Ditto, etc.

Never seen the reason to change; if it ain't broke, why fix it?

I also hate being forced to use the juvenile 'My Documents' folder for anything, purely because I'm stubborn that way.

I fully reserve the right to P&L if EA one day forces everyone to use the My Documents setup.

I would be far happier if they'd stop sticking crap into the My Docs folder. Leave all the game info in ONE PLACE damnit.

Pandering to the lowest common denominator. So many people have trouble even finding the My Documents folder that they don't trust them to go looking in their Programs folder.

And then you have people like my brother in law who not once but thrice destroyed his Windows by deleting files because he didn't recognise the name and that meant they were virus's.

Now I am imagining the Poofs' My Documents folder is like a tarderdome with a bunch of docs in it going "neener neener".

Linux is superior to both Windoze and Mac, anyway. As to the Brony avatard, there was much debate as to which picture I was to be given. To simplify things, I created an animated GIF including all the supplied pictures and even added the lovely Ugg that LaButt awarded me with.

I didn't realise the OP was using the mydocs method not the install directory method.
Nothing in your post changes the fact that you were still WRONG.

There isn't any disadvantage, but I naturally eschew it because I continue doing it the old way, BECAUSE I AM OLD AND I HATE CHANGE.

Grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I cannot accept, and the wisdom to hide the bodies of those I had to kill because they pissed me off.
