The House Phone Only Rings When...

Anyone else ever notice that the house phone only rings when an elder dies from old age? At first I thought it was just that certain household, but as I started creating new families, it was still the same. Is it like that for you guys?

This section of the board is not for asking questions.

As for your question, I have no idea.  I switch off the house phone so that none of the phones ring.  Incoming phone calls distract my sims from whatever it is that I told them to do (and yes, they do still get opportunities with the phones turn off).

KingBooker:
My fault, I wasn't sure what section to put it in. Is it possible for this to be moved in the "The Horror, The Horror" section?

J. M. Pescado:
I'm not clear what the use of the house phone is, since everyone is has a mandatory cellphone.

Ooh, I think you just added some strategery, ironically enough.  I didn't know you can get opportunities when the phone is off.  I guess it does make sense, since you get opportunities even if you don't explicitly answer the phone when the opportunity rings.  I'm definitely turning the phone off now.  Thanks for the tip.
