They just wont die!
shesim:
As it so happenens, yesterday, I accidently turned all the needs red en before I knew it she dropped dead and there was the reaper already.
Mazza:
You can't kill them off by starvation if they have the unlucky trait either. In fact you can't deliberately kill them in any way if they are unlucky.
Oh der ironics!
Orange Indigo:
The aging thing is obnoxious like that. Apparently the game thinks its doing us a favor by having elder Sims live long past their expiration date, but I can't say I agree.
I've noticed that most hand-reared Sims live well out into their 100's, for the 90-day life span, or 60's/70's for the 50-day life span. When Sims are only living to 50 elsewhere, it's obviously very frustrating to have the Sims on your home lot living to nearly 1.5 times the life span. As far as I know, it has nothing to do with how well-treated these Sims were, and making them Vegetarians/Marathon Runners doesn't seem to have much effect. I've found they outlive their welcome no matter their traits/hobbies.
Use debug mode to drag their hunger all the way down. I did this to an unwanted boyfriend of a Sim, and he fell to the floor instantly, no countdown. Or, if you want an old age ghost, do what Georgette suggested.

If a Sim who can't temporarily die by starvation has their hunger fall below this value, we assign set it to it. Example: Preganant Sims and Sims on the world lot. Value: -95.0
Forgive my stupidity. Do you mean to tell me that pregnant Sims cannot starve to death?

No idea, I just accidentally bumped into this line in the XMLs and I quoted it here (typos and all) because I've seen the topic before. It's certainly in the code. Whether the game uses it, or whether it's used for the things they stated, I cannot tell - I don't seem to have a luck with XML mods, as the things I modify somehow never do what I intended them to do :) Maybe the code works for something else, not the examples they put there... or, it might only work for the sims in labor - after all, they can't do anything while "the baby is coming".
Korochuun:
You know, for some gosh-darned reason I completely forgot all ideas of cheats when I was trying to kill them off. Maybe a part of me just likes sticking two people in a room and watching them slowly die..
God. Should I be worried?
