Maxis agrees with Laurenke

This will sound really dumb, but I have to ask: How do I find out my user ID number on the Maxis board?
(Yup. Even after I typed it, it still sounds pretty dumb.)

If you go to your SimPage, and look at the url, the last thing in the address is your id number.

Last thing I read, you are supposed to be attractive to someone who is different to you but not too different. The current philosophy is that you choose someone whose sweat smells different to you but who has a symmetrical face shape of the same race as you. (people of very different races may have divergent genetics, in which some of the genes have translocated, and this can result in offspring that are retarded/ deficient as a result of chromosomes crossing over and genes being left out) If someone has an abnormally asymmetrical face it implies that they are a) deformed, and therefore may have faulty genetics or b) they have walked under a bus as a result of stupidity/ poor reflexes or that they start fights and then lose, in which case their genes are also likely to be undesirable. It might be a freak accident and not their fault, but evolution doesn't work like that.
I have never seen a human being with black skin and any eye colour other than brown. Hair, eye, and skin pigmentation are all a result of production of melanin. Melanin production can vary slightly between different parts of the same person, but large variances are improbable. Albino people cannot produce melanin and have blue eyes, white skin, and colourless hair that looks pale blond. People with white skin never have pure black hair (not the really black sort that has a bluish tinge to it like Asian hair). Only people with pale skin can have ginger or blond hair and blue eyes. Blue eyes in my experience are extremely rare as this is the result of having no eye pigmentation and is recessive to everything else. Grey eyes and what people describe as being green have varying amounts of melanin, followed by hazel and then brown, which is the full pigmentation.
The NPCs that the game creates are all minging (IMHO) because they mix up incompatible features and hence the black-skinned man with blue eyes and a blond mullet who loiters in a repulsive tracksuit outside the house, urinating on the topiary and eating out of the dustbin. Even the ones with plausible skin/hair/eye colours are ugly because the archetypes are all ugly and don't look like the races they're supposed to represent. I don't know why this is because the playable characters in the game aren't plagued by faces with the eyes too far apart like hammerhead sharks and huge lips like startled guppies (well, apart from Dina Caliente (or whatever her name is -- the one in the dress with blonde hair), whose face is the stuff of nightmares). I use Pescado's No Townie Regeneration hack with my own neighbourhood, and blitz the character files and neighbourhood entries with SimPE before making any characters in it.

the mother was from Nigeria and the father was English, but the twins (monozygotic) were born one entirely black African in appearance, the other blond, blue-eyed and pale-skinned. Evidently a very rare form of mirror-image twins!
I read a story like that in Teen People magazine years ago... The mother was caucasian and the father was Jamaican...I think the twn daughters were fraternal though...but they looked the same just different skintones...people didnt believe that they were twins or even had the same parents...
