Thread hijacking in progress: Any idea what causes blank thought bubbles?


I've seen that happen after clearing out all the gossip memories, especially on ghosts.  They'll go away as the gossip (and other memories, as jolrei said) build up again.


I also saw blank thought bubbles when I had a very neat sim become furious with the NPC-Penguin after mopping its piss puddle (even though I have nopuddlerage installed).
She would do the furious animation with a blank thought bubble surounded by flames above her head. In the same time she wanted to see NPC-Penguin ghost (that's how i found out who she was furious with) and the want displayed the star thing in the background ("power want") but no face only the small ghost.

more things to do to mess up your hood:
1. delete some sim descroption files in SimPE and don't clean up after them
2. go back and do a bad clean up in SimPE - delete their genetics file only (all recessive genetics should then be borked)
3. invite a sim over and move them in with the tombstone of L&D using the first option - ages will reset and not move
4. marry a llama mascot
5. download lots from the exchange with old versions of hacks in
6. download tons of cc, so the game grinds to a halt
7. install BV and let it phone home regularly so your game grinds to a halt or crashes
8. pick the sim who knows everyone, move his/her lot into the lot bin while occupied and put it back.
9. make a habit of saving lots while you have loads of visitors on site and your sims are in the middles of things
10. save while ghosts are out and about, then do something that causes a reset. - the tombstone for those ghosts should disappear
well I could go on.....

Interesting list of "do nots" - #3 is relatively easy to fix though by jump starting aging again with the InSim temporal adjuster (add a day or subtract a day from the affected sim's life and they start aging normally again).  Is there another way that this messes up the hood that is more invisible and serious?  I "found" this problem the normal way (trial and error, stress "error"), but after the fix it never caused problems that I could see.

4. marry a llama mascot

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I didn't think this was a VBT. The llama mascot just has that habit of reverting to old behavior like the cheerleader, cheering and, in his case, showing up on community lots in his mascot outfit.

Can we confirm?  Cos if this is true and it's not a VBT, I'm gonna get one of my simgirls to marry it.  I can always kill or re-townify the mascot when he gets too damn annoying.  Might be good for moar fight too.
