Usually if someone is having trouble with somethings, even with some instructions, there are nice people willing to help. Here I can see it's mostly people who just get kicks out of seeing people struggle. It's extremely immature from women in their 40's.
Nice people? Hell, you wandered into the wrong place.
You've been given the answers you asked for, but you don't like them. Tough shit. Life's not far. This is not the site for moronic excuses like 'not being good with computers.' If you're not good with computers, you shouldn't be asking how to do advanced things with them. If you want to do advanced things with them, learn how, or hire someone to do it for you. I'd be happy to, for $100 a hour plus traveling expenses.
Oh, and I guess I'm really immature then, being in my 50's and all.

I have realized that.
Not all of my questions have been answered, like how to find all the tour guides so I can prep them for delete like the tutorial tells me to do.
I think I may have figure out the real problem though. I sent one of my sims on a vacation to Twikki Island and got him flirting with the Witch Doctor ( you can do 'feed a bite' and once they fancy each other you can do everything else) and eventually marry the guy/have him move in. So I did this... it asked me if I wanted to move in Mrs. Crumplebottom or the Grim Reaper or the Hula Zombie or any of my dead sims or Bella Goth with the Witch Doctor, but I declined. I think having the witch doctor in one of my families is something making my game run bad, because that's about the time I remember it starting to run bad. Also, after backing up my Sims 2 folder I moved the family with the witch doctor in it to another 'hood via the move occupied house thing figuring I'll start anew in this neighborhood, since the other one was looking grim, and play my favorite family in the new 'hood and go from there. Well the new 'hood ran slow...
So I think my real problem is the Witch Doctor since you aren't supposed to have him playable in your families. It makes sense too because I didn't spend $3500 building this computer so a small band of tour guides could slow it down. Witch Doctors do voodoo shit though so you never know. >:(
Anyways, I don't know what the lot debugger is, or if it's even different from debug mode. I've tried to search high and low on this site to figure it out so I wouldn't have to burden you people with a question, and while it is mentioned a lot on the site, I cannot find out what it is and/or how to use it.
Because of this I'm stuck on the first line of the tutorial, in my quest to delete the Witch Doctor.
And age and maturity are not directly proportional, however I don't have any reason to think you are immature, you seem very logical to me and your post wasn't full of personal attacks and insults you expect to hear on the 5th grade playground.
And witch your luck did not help me :(

Have a look through the bv folder for all bv hacks. The Director's cut has all hacks. Each zip has an rtfm in it, explaining what it does. Most hacks also have a thread on this forum. Search by name.

If you can't do the flirting with NPCs in 'normal' way (not the one that was introduced by later EP), you are not supposed to move in/marry them. EA test new EPs only with Base Game, so some EP-specific features are often glitched. (Like OFB perk "Head for Numbers", which made the game crash when you try to call vacation NPCs.) AFAIR, Feed a Bite was introduced in NL, so it's not surprising that the interaction is glitched with BV NPCs.

This is a well-known VBT. NEVER move occupied lots into lot bin. NEVER move occupied lots between the hoods. You'll irrevocably corrupt your new hood. DO NOT delete family in the Sim bin.
Search the forum for more information, and read around the forum MOAR, especially this War Room and various stickies. If you don't even know such basic things, you're not supposed to try this tutorial in the first place.

I just play the game, you know. I never thought it was necessary to go online and search for what you can and can't do in a game, because in most of the games I've played (and there have been a damn lot) they are made well enough where it's not necessary, and anything you can do is ok.
Thanks for letting me know these things. I never would have thought moving an occupied lot would damage things. Seems very irresponsible of EA to not warn you about that while you're doing it.

I have figured this out, that I am far from capable of doing this tutorial, however, I need to do it... hence why a lot of people here seem to hate me.
Thanks for the link, witch.
