Cleaning up Characters?
Insanity Prelude:
I can't delete Bella (even with the Lot Debugger) because she still has family ties to the Goths- but I resurrected her with SimPE, it should theoretically be easy to reverse the process.
I'd need to cut her relations with everyone she met since, right? And what else?
Edit: I searched the forum, and Jordi stated in another thread that spawning the kittenkiller InTeen's biological clock fixes most problems. Would this apply to Bella? If I can't undo my resurrection of her, I'll at least be careful not to breed her.

The lot debugger only prepares the sim for deletion; if you want to complete the process, read the 'Deleted 2' thread in The War Room.

However, I wonder what would happen to the playable YAs if you delete the last Uni hood -- there would be no sim bin left for them to be dumped into . Sounds like they'd get deleted, which I imagine would be a VBT indeed.

Hadn't thought of that... I don't think I want to be the person to try it and find out, either!
I would certainly make sure my backups were up to date beforehand - could always then test what happens, and if it's bad (i.e. if all YAs are deleted and not, say, grown up and sent to the hood as townies), the borked hood could be zorched and replaced with the backups. Not something to do on a whim though, I agree.

That's where I read that you're not supposed to delete Sims with family ties. :) I just wonder if I can return her to her pre-resurrected state, since all I did to resurrect her (following some clearly non-awesome person's tutorial) was set her not to be dead, put her in a family, uh, I think there was some other box to uncheck too ("Unlinked", maybe)... This was with Ye Olde SimPE, though.

It really depends a lot on whether you played the resurrected Bella. If not, unchecking whatever boxes and removing family ties, memories of relationships, etc. might just do it. On the other hand, since the Bella character is not a complete character file to begin with, it is, as jsalemi said earlier, not recommended for resurrection for good reason (you didn't know that at the time, I grant, but there it is). For this reason, it is difficult to guarantee that if you switch it back, everything will be the same and nothing bad will happen. It is perhaps less likely that bad things will happen.
If you played Bella, it is difficult to predict what type of damage may have been done. Again, it is perhaps better to de-resurrect her and stop any further damage. Play the hood until it does or does not go foom.
Someone recently suggested it was fun to start over anyway.
Never understood the fascination for Bella, but then, I didn't play TS1.
