Neighborhood Shifting-The Horror-or not!
mappam:
Interesting - thanks.
I may Bin (move out) a couple of families and see what happens - but leave the rest of them. There are a couple of houses I would like to tinker with.

I personally will stick to wantonly evicting and deleting unwanted townies as I replace them with other more suitable sims. I expect I will find out whether this is a bad thing to do. I realize it's a bit like finding out about fire by sticking my hand into it, but sometimes a bit of experimentation is needed, I fancy.

Until I can create my own 'hood from scratch, I don't consider any instance to be my real game. It can't be mine if everyone else has a Riverview or a Sunset Valley, even if I've bulldozed all the lots and have different families living there. So if it gets bunked up, no loss.

Have you noticed the odd living arrangements Storymode tends to create? In an attempt to fix a bug with the radio, I had to go from house to house to remove radios from households I am not playing, and I saw things like 4 and 5 people living in a one bedroom home.
I also am kicking myself for not disabling the BUS killings of Sims. One of the sims in my family has been chatting up this other sim for a while. She calls him up and asks him to meet at the park to hang out. She gets there and then I see the "Grady Effman has passed on, old age comes for every sim, blah blah.." message. Thing is..Grady wasn't elderly. I am not even sure if he was an adult, he could have been a YA. I removed his grave from the mausoleum in hopes of seeing him one night and finding out what happened to poor Grady.

I now don't think that the deletion of townies is a major problem. I have deleted a number of my sim's former friends (including workmates, one of his bosses, and a girl he was hitting on), after moving MATY sims into their houses and evicting the townies to the clipboard. They just vanish from the relationships panel as if they never existed.
