This whole stairs issue is irritating, always has been. When will they learn to share the stairs so that we don't need to put two sets of stairs in their homes and hope that they can use them? 

I think a want should be added for toddlerss: "Learn how to walk on stairs"
That way, they'll be trained before they become adults in the fine art of stair walking and we won't have to listen to them complain all the time.
Or maybe, if simB can't get up the stairs because simA is on them, he should sit in the corner with a dunce cap on for 1 sim hour?

S'ok. Those gardeners have no class anyway; they eat lobster with their gardening gloves on. 

Not that we actually CARE if townies are in the dorms 


Technically, they can want a car since they are able to live in homes as well as dorms on your campus, and you can build all you want on those.

I had a romance sim want to get engaged to another and at the same time, their fear was to get engaged to said sim.

Here's a little bug for any Maxoids lurking...

Easy to reproduce: From a sim's University dorm, ask another sim out on a date (a sim who does not live in the same dorm). Go downtown, have your date etc. and ask them to come home with you. When you arrive back to your dorm, University will display the 'There aren't enough rooms...' message and kick a townie out to make space for your date.

Don't you mean udder destruction? 

C'mon people, it's a game. You see them, you ask them to leave.

Stop it, you're making me hungry.

Let me clarify: I meant that the interaction seemed awkward due to it having the same events occur when a sim takes a stranger out on a date.

*hands you some flowers*

Or how about being able to ask your wife out on a date. lol, OK, it's not so funny but the interactions at the end of the date are a bit odd as your wife will treat you like your were someone else, compliment you on the date and then go out the back door to place flowers on her own doorstep.

The biggest aesthetic annoyance for me is that I cannot park in the street. I have to delete a large chunk of my home (only on the left side) to place a driveway. I can understand how this might affect the school bus or the car pool, but it makes me a little batty.

Speaking of cars, it's comical when you have two in the driveway, send one to work in his/her car then park the other in the driveway (thus blocking the garage). When the sim comes home from work, they will magically appear in the garage instead of sitting in the street honking and screaming obscenities at the sim who is parked in the driveway.

Another thing that irks me is the fact that sims need to drive to get next door or across the street. Wouldn't it make more sense to "Walk Next Door" and while you're at the lot, "Walk back home"? I mean, sims walk by my home all day long.

As far as I'm concerned, you take your chances with her.

This is, after all, a dating service (so to speak). Pleasure and romance sims can utilize her services in a very usefull way when they have the the '100 Dates' or 20 woohoo's LTW.

Has anyone tried to befriend her and see what the results are? It seems my family sims have the best luck with her.

I prefer the 'fall asleep in your food' manoeuver. 

I can't be sure but it happened to me twice. It seems to be from other sims who are dead trying to call.

I had one sim who knew just about everyone in the city. Many of his friends died and I noticed that after time, he was unable to use the phone (or do anything else for that matter). Autonomous actions were fine, but user commands would disappear and he would 'jump' from place to place. I figured it was the lot and moved him into a new house but he was still 'broken'. I removed all of the phones and no luck. I had to kill him 

Am I rambling? Yeah. I have a backup of the neighbourhood with the broken Sim in it but I doubt you want that.

Is that what caused that? That drove me nuts trying to figure out what the problem was. 

Oh, and here I thought I was going senile. There seems to be more detail and somewhat better color handling. Maybe you're not imagining things

I only seem to have this problem when teens come over. Inviting them over earlier in the day is fine, but it seems any time after about 8 or 9PM is a no-no.

lmao! That happened to me as well. Of course, we shouldn't be surprised should we? I mean, they were RUNNING with SCISSORS! 

I'm off-topic *hides inside a stuck kicky bag*

Interesting thread. I can't say that I've had any of the problems collected here and my neighborhood has hit 1,030 packages (more dead than alive). I can only assume that Pescado's fixes are just that: fixes. 

Lovely - Once again my sanity is saved from the silly decisions made by Maxis developers.
Thank you.

Perfect! There are so many silly obsessions in this game and that one was quite annoying.

Now if only we can take care of sims obsession with musical instruments and wanting to get tips from family members. It's as if all sims aspire to be the Partridge Family
