That’s because it was specific to the browser. They should make it an account setting instead. ---

All I know is BL for BF4 is jacked up now, people are saying there won’t be a BL for BF1…is this true? I’m not playing another SWBF version that isolates you and doesn’t allow for communicating with friends. So BL for BF4 is a must to be operative. **I appreciate braddock looking into some sort of clan/platoon feed as that would be a start.** Everyone that thinks this is fine, never had a group of friends for 4-5 years on here and just doesn’t get it really. I’m not savvy enough to create something outside the game but I hope someone does in my circle of friends. The forums I don’t care about so much really, it’s BL and it’s stats portal that matter to me really. ---

I’m really like the new forum theme. But wonder if we have an option to put custom background skins in it too. That would be nice. ---

I’m not playing another SWBF version that isolates you and doesn’t allow for communicating with friends. So BL for BF4 is a must to be operative. Who know what the final outcome of this will be. Maybe they are planning on incorperating all the Battlelog features into the Origin client. ---

> [@iPLAYnFOURkay](#): > > Battlelog, for the time being, can be run in another tab. That’s not really the point. I could run TeamSpeak on my computer while playing on my PS4 but do I? No, I use the built-in VOIP… Yeah, you can still look at Battlelog in another tab but it’s a downgrade. It’s less convenient and less functional than what we had before. Say you have posted a technical thread or a thread discussing stats or whatever and I need to look at you soldier profile. There is no way for me to do that using the user interface. I have to open a new tab and go to [http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/user/No1StingerUserUK/](http://battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/user/No1StingerUserUK/) and then copy your username and paste it in place of “No1StingerUserUK” to get to your profile. That is a bit ridiculous when before it was as easy as clicking your name… ---
