OK, so why would I want this mess?
VaVe:
I'm still unsure about the game.
While I do enjoy some of the new features (traits, laptops, better inventories etc) the whole game is starting to feel like a chore. Do I like my sims achieving their lifetime wishes? Yes. Is it worth the hours of gameplay to get them there? No.
Also I don't like the way that the lots work, it feels like a step back ( I know that's been said before).
There have been a few good points though; killing the Goth family was prticularly satisfying. I also like that charisma can be built though interacting with other sims it seems more natural than talking to a mirror.
Pico:
I could say that, in a way, this game was built for me. I did not like rotating in TS2 so from the very beginning I was looking forward to "one family only" play. I hated loading screens and there are none now. There are many new elements that do enrich gameplay; there are also some bugs and some stupid - though mostly understandable - design flaws (like the "immaculate conception" problem) but on the whole, I can't say anything really bad about TS3. I don't even miss hacks - cheats that came with the game are quite enough for me ATM.
So why do I prefer lurking on forums (which I have been doing for a long time here)
instead of just catching the most important news and hurrying back to the game? Like some other people in this thread I don't know for sure. I'll just say that it does not feel sexy like TS2 did, and I am not talking about skins or interactions from adult sites. I guess it's a lot of small signals that one "reads" mostly on subconscious level and that all add up in the end, making the game unattractive for some of us.

One problem with going to another floor to eat... I seem to remember that distances were counted as if everything was on the same floor. If you wanted to put a table on another floor, it had to be far away from the others or it could get chosen in preference to a table on the same floor with the Sim.
That's why I said the distance part didn't always work: kitchen/eating cantina was on the far left side of the building, but the tiny table downstairs was on the right side (serving platters on the left of the cantina tables). Logically, even considering everything on the same floor, he never should have done that. And my two cleaning sims don't have time to go get that plate, too much to do already. Annoying. Well I generally don't mind for that but on communities and home shops there's no time for such things and the fail must be stomped quickly.

It could be the fact that nearly all the sims have pudding faces. Or the unusual amount of obese sims. I don't know, do you?

Growing fruit = All your fruit goes into your inventory! Where you have to manually put it in the fridge, one by one.
There's a tab on the upper left corner of inventory items with more than one in the slot. Grab and drag that to the fridge and it should move all of the type at once.

OMG! Thank you so so much for that info! I thought there had to be a way, just hadn't figured it out! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
