What do YOU do with your platinum people?

The first Sim ever to die in my game was Herb Oldie. It was a solemn moment, even though he had hula girls and a platinum gravestone. I did not save the game.
Well, King Charming bit the big one night and I did save and it sucked. :'( Son Duke and grandson Prince were beside themselves with grief. Was a little teary myself.
I keep telling myself, woman, this is the way you play a generational game, you have to move through the generations.
I did like the insurance money though. I don't play with money cheats anymore and it was a nice boost.
Wonder how much money Daniel will be worth to Kaylynn, she could use some cash. ;)

Yes, they are just pixels, but isn't it funny how attached we become *sigh* :)
I second that. When I first bought TS2, I had somewhat of a Legacy family I was playing, and I had a difficult time letting the first generation mother just age to an elder! Oh, and when she died ... well, I nearly couldn't play the family. I was crushed. They had grandchildren and great grandchildren and now she was gone and she had been the most beautiful sim in her younger years and her husband was equally as handsome. Yes, you get very attached to them.

I'm so attached I just let all the generations keep on going. I play with aging off, and I have sims who are still at the adult stage, yet have great-grandchildren. I think the lack of certain age groups makes it too hard for me to go through with the aging. It's confusing the way I play, but I still have fun.

But isn't that a nice fantasy world? :) I can't remember how old they let people get to in Star Trek, but I'm thinking it was 130 or more. What a nice world where Great-Grandma is still young and vital. I can see why that would be so much fun to play.
I'm irritatingly realistic when it comes to my Sims, in a non-realistic Simmish sort of way. I have two generations of Sims smushed into "adult" right now, due to liberal use of Elixir with my first gen of adults (no, not the Elder stoop! no, no boobs dragging on the ground!)...and I'm going to need to let the first gen Sims turn into Elders soon or it will make me batty.
My first gen is really 40-50 in my mind, and the second gen 20 to 30...but really, most everybody is 29 days to Elder. With a third gen about to go into University...it's time for the rest of the crowd to be moving up. I just can't have everybody mushed together.
I hate the draggy boobs more than anything. :P Just 'cause you're 65 doesn't mean you can't afford a good bra!

Hear, hear. Have they never heard of underwires?
