Err .... where I come from, the slums are the poorer neighbourhoods, not the people who live there ..

Hmm .. my solution is to remove free will.  They always stand obediently at the oven when free will is off .

I think, in one of these threads, Maxoid Tom said that would be addressed in the patch.  The original idea was something akin to buying someone a drink at a bar ..

What I remember reading is that the relationship restriction doesn't apply to the count / countess ..

Yeah .. they tend to be memories that belong to other sims.  If they directly witness a memory-creating event, or learn about it through gossip, they gain an invisible memory about it.  They then transfer it to other sims through gossip.

If you RTFM you'll see Dr. Boris is the other half of Flying Fish Systems (FFS).

I don't think the thought bubbles have much to do with anything.  It's just random crap, generally.

Good lord .. they expect the average user to follow all that?

I hate how their first answer is always to tell people to shut down all open processes.  You shouldn't go shutting down processes in task manager, willy nilly, unless you actually know what they are and whether it's safe to do so.  And telling people to shut down their virus scanners and fire walls is just dangerous.

It's not that it is a hat, the game just treats it as a hat, since it would be a little silly to sleep or go swimming with that massive thing on your head .

I don't have NL, yet, so can't really comment on how things are working with the attraction system in place.

Personally, though, I always saw it as sort of like rock stars.  Most of them are butt-ugly with the personality of a toad, but that doesn't stop the swarms of groupies ..

Sibling rivalry .. sounds pretty natural to me.

Their motives won't decay naturally at night, but can still be lowered by objects and the like.

Well, of course they can't find this thread.  They probably can't afford the monthly subscription ..

My sims tend to stay faithful.  Personally, I don't have too much interest in destroying their marriages by having them cheat.  I do have a romance sim, though, that lives by himself in a little disco shack.  He woohoos anyone who walks by the lot .

Hmm .. I have a modified bubble blower that I downloaded from MTS2 that blows smoke instead of bubbles 

It's not unusual for sims who just had public woohoo for the first time to roll up that want.  Just ignore it, and it'll go away.

You quoted the answer to your question, eh ..

I don't think this is the right place to ask for an 'eat all you want and never get fat' hack.  JM tends to make hacks that remove annoyances and things that aren't logical.  His solution was to create a hack that stopped sims from eating when they weren't hungry.  Making them always stay thin, no matter how much they gorge, is moderately cheaty, and not the sort of thing I've seen JM create.

I really hope the author is alone in feeling that was in any way, shape, or form, objective.  I'd be pretty worried if that's what passes as objective journalism, these days ..

My sim-kids live on muffins.  Parents are too busy doing other stuff to make food for them.  Come to think of it, my sim-parents rarely interact with their kids ... 

Yes .. my Sims need to exit the stone age and purchase an answering machine.  Or how about a message pad for those stupid "Is Johnny home?" calls.

I feel so plain and ordinary, now, just having the two cats.  We had a dog, too, but had to put her down last year :/.

We took care of a friend's ferret and another friend's iguanna for a while.  They scared the hell out of me.  The iguanna hated us, would posture and attack the glass of his tank whenever we were in the room, and bit my hand when I was putting food in it's tank.

Well, that goes for any townie, really, doesn't it?
