What exactly causes the blank Want/Fear slots?
ZephyrZodiac:
Well, I suppose the car could cause it. But your explanation sounds pretty good to me, Mokey.
Hook:
I've seen blank wants twice.
The first time was on Meadow Thayer. I used a cheat to get her into a family, and she'd often show up with blank wants. This didn't bother me.
The second time was today. I invited Marsha Bruenig over for a swim (got tired of her calling on the phone all the time) and afterwards resurrected her. For a couple of Sim days she would have one or more blank wants or fears. She's in college now, and hasn't had the problem in a while.
For what it's worth, Marsha is a reasonably attractive young adult. Just add a bit of makeup and she looks really good. She also has high neatness, so she gains a lot of cleaning points going around the dorm cleaning various toilets and showers. She's also very active, but for some reason seems to drain energy more quickly than other Sims, and recharges slower while asleep. I spent §9,000 on the resurrection so she doesn't have odd personality stats.

OT, but is with her obsessive phone calling? I grew her up and sent to to Uni, with the hopes that she would grow out of it but it seems as though age has made her problem even worse. She calls any Sim I have that has ever met her, whether they are friends or not. I thought maybe it was because she had a high outgoing personality, but she only has 2 points. Normally I just use the phone hack and turn off the phone but I'm trying a legacy neighborhood and I'm about to feed her to a cow plant if she doesn't cut it out. She's the only Sim in the neighborhood who will call without a good (or at least some) reason.
Hook:
Pescado calls this The One syndrome. In any given neighborhood, there's always the same Sim that calls your sims if they know each other. Marsha keeps getting calls from the Orlando child. In another neighborhood, it's one of my playable Sims that calls everyone.
If anyone has ever met Marsha, she will pester them on the phone all the time. I haven't played another house since I started playing her, so I don't know if she still calls everyone.

It's like the one they all want to watch through the telescope - if you don't have Mortimer, then they all pick on someone else. I don't have Marsha in my game and it's, as you say, one of my playable sims that does the phone calling, and again one with a retiring personality!
