I tried playing the sims, but I hated having to keep them fed, send them to work, or school etc

bad enough having to take care of RL self, let alone babysit a bunch of pixels hehe

I say kill them all!!!

thats when the cheats come in handy...you can just drag up all the motives and set their aspiration to max in the click of the button....In Sims 2 that is...not sure if this works in the original.

I've actually managed to get a family of 3 sims, all the top dog in each carreer (through dragging up skill levels etc) and then managed to kill them all off....i did this in a week i think lol.

Hmm- see I differ with you there Trout - Amaranthim is as much me as it can get short of physical presence. I have never willfully done anything to endanger myself in the game though I realize that it is only simulated danger.

I have alts I have tried to be someone else - like a different personality or something- but it is always me. Other than the name, then I never end up using the alt because it feels dishonest - yeah, I am disturbed I guess.


I have willfully done all sorts of things to endanger myself in RL. Trout is 100% me, too, except he can fly, magically produce plywood boxes out of thin air, randomly turn into other avatars like dragons, robots and birds, is much better looking and thinner, and most importantly can't die. Since he can't die, I occasionally blow him up. If I couldn't die in RL, I might blow myself up, too. I have couple alts, too, but I can't enjoy them as much as I do Trout.

When I played The Sims, I could never really handle doing stuff like that. Really jes so opposite who I am.

... Well, dozens if you count the skydiving accidents (thanks for the parachute again, Lindal! ...


I'm beginning...*puff*...to think that was a mistake. Oof! Ever since I gave you that *mmmf* bloody thing, women have been asking me for them. *Whew!*

So now...*ouch!* I've had to open Lovers Leap Skydiving Equipment...*urgh*. With a *gasp* parachute assembly line.

And packing anvils into these things is just *nnnh!* wearing me out.

Although it's done wonders for my figure.

so is fire, starving and drowning the only way to kill off people on the sims? or are there others? *loads up sims 2*

i'd have to say there is deffinatly an attachment to crunch. i couldn't log on one day with him (another SL glitch) and had to use my alt for a few hours. i ended up having to log off 'cos it was making me depressed not being able to use Crunch. Odd how we grow attached to things

Not sure about sims2 but in original you could die from loneliness or if you're avatar was stuck

Ok, cheat to get the killer thing which lets you kill by whatever you want.
You can get allsorts...

When on the Neighbourhood screen, bring up your cheat bar... (ctrl shift and c i think) then type 'boolProp testingCheatsEnabled true' and press enter.
go into your household, and shift-click on the active character...choose 'spawn'... and 'Rodney's Death Creator' i think its called. Once created, you can click on it to interact, like you do with anything else, and choose from the menu of how you would like your sim to die...

easy peasy. just be careful with some of the options in the testing cheats....it can mess up your game if some of the options are messed with...its mostly self-explanatory though.

I know without cheats, you can kill your sim by fire, drowning, starvation and they can die by old age. but you can also get random occurences, like the satellite, and I think even die by flies is possible if you get the place dirty enough, though I haven't tried that one yet.

The Sims 2 plus all 5,000 of the expansion packs is the most current one, but there's The Sims 3 slotted to come out sometime early 2009 if you want to wait that long.

well...there is the original Sims, or there is Sims 2. Sims 2 has more features...such as aging and aspirations etc, and i prefer it.
either one you get, you will have to get the main one...just plainly called The Sims/The Sims 2,
then you can buy expansion packs to add onto the features...like nightlife (it opens a downtown community district and allows vampires etc) college something orother (teens can go away to college and further their career prospects) Open for business (sims can open businesses etc...)....the list goes on...
you don't have to have the expansion packs, and you don't have to get them in any order, but they wont work without the basic game...
Takes up a fair bit of memory etc too... but I have The Sims Life Stories aswell, which is suitable for laptops and you play an actual story line, while still being able to freeplay...

I havent played the Sims in a looooooong time.

I used to mod that game alot. I had a trailor park, with pet pigs. I had a dark spooky gothic castle that I & my fiance lived in (and yes- I photosourced the faces). I had a 70's Swinger/Nudist colony.

Naturally I killed off everyone.

Even tried to get the exploding yard gnomes to blow up the baby.

My fav trick was to stick a large family in a U shaped hedge, then wall them off with more hedges. Speed up time, watch 'em die, and have a nice lil' graveyard.

I had fun killing sims. Yeah, at first it seemed kind of demented and pitiful but once I started thinking of new ways to do it I got over it. :D

Well, dozens if you count the skydiving accidents (thanks for the parachute again, Lindal! You've convinced me to NEVER skydive in RL. There's about a 50% failure rate in skydiving!).

Everything you need to know about skydiving is in my life insurance policy. It does NOT cover skydiving. It DOES cover suicide. So the insurance company will pay if I die by jumping out of a plane with the intent to die with no parachute. They won't pay if I jump out of a perfectly good plane with a parachute and an intent to live.

I once had one of mine in the original sims die from being bitten by the guinea pig.

The guinea pig bit her and she got sick and died.

LOL! Ever do a "Chain Of Fire"? Thats where you set them up in an enclosed space with a fireplace and have 1 Sim light a fireplace, catch fire, and set fire to the rest of them.

ROFL!! Mmmmmm.... I love the smell of buring sims in the morning!!:D

If a sim with no mechanical skill attempts to fix a broken television, he's guaranteed to get electrocuted.

I actually cried the first time I killed a sim, but after doing it a few dozen times it got boring. It was too easy to kill them. So instead I tried to make their lives as difficult as possible.

I would create a new sim and waste all of his money on landscaping. I would leave him with no money, no house and the lowest paying job. He owned nothing but a love seat, a bookcase and a telephone. He would eventually thrive but it took a lot of hard work.

Even more difficult than that was the unemployed single mom trying to support seven children.

The problem with the Sims is that there isn't the level of creativity you get in SL. There are WAY more ways to kill an avatar - just dream something up and you can make it happen. Drowning, burning, hanging, knife throwing accident, poison apple, blimp catastrophe, botulism, sawmill tragedy, incendiary watermelon, weed whacker, killer bees, run over by a glacier, falling piano, raped by an angry elephant, stabbed, speared, gored, punctured, crammed into the dryer and spun to death, dessication, peeling, giant potato masher, the list goes on and on.


Personally, I vote for the incendiary watermelon...

I wonder if Torley has any of those. :P
