I can confirm a little something here. Story progression has been set to off since a little time after starting the game. Recently, I moved in a family I made into a house on edit town mode, never switched to them. Saw them walking about town for about week. My kids met their kids at school. Then, I check the newspaper to see that they've moved away.


WHAT?  How could EA stuff this one up so badly?  What's even worse is that it sounds like a feature, not a bug.  The moron at EA who decided to include this "feature" needs to be fired.

DigiGekko:
I know. I didn't believe it myself at first. But sure enough, they had left. I don't know why it would matter whether or not I actually played them. I put them there for a reason. It shouldn't matter if I make them active or not.

Scotty:
What an asinine feature.

Zazazu:
It probably just runs a random roll among households for possible eviction. Anyone but the family you are currently in is included.

Week Two report:
Wedding report for the family in play (private home exchange in pjs is an extravagant ceremony? Ok...)Pate family moved to neighborhoodBrandie Pate and Marco Carbone marriedFrio family left neighborhoodBaby announcement for family in playPate family moved out (that was fast)Bennie born to "Working Friends" household
Going slower right now, but that's because I'm raising three toddler boys at once. I'm hating that maternity leave is enforced, and on the mother only. Way to be sexist, EAxis. My workaholic has to stay home with the babies, while the father goes to work.

That explains the missing ONE and ONLY Friend my starting sim lost.  This will also play havoc with any future planning on which family I might like to marry my spawn into.  Who's to say they'll even be there when my now teenage son grows up?
