Since Business Perks and Vacation Benefits aren't written in description but instead, written with its own words, each of the benefit here must be rewritten as well. Nikel Talk 11:11, January 19, 2012 (UTC)

Actually, it looks like Vacation benefits are written as descriptions. Business perks aren't, but each track has its own page in which they are. I think we can leave it as it is. Dharden (talk) 15:54, January 19, 2012 (UTC)
Whoops. I should've checked before I talked. Hmm... probably I was just daydreaming... Sorry, then I'll leave it as it is. Nikel Talk 02:50, January 23, 2012 (UTC)

Clarify?[edit source]

I don't remember for sure, but I think I was the one who wrote about the animation of abduction with Astrowonder Telescope. I guess I interpreted it wrong, but the way I read it, it states that the animation of the Sim during an abduction will not play if they use that telescope. What I was saying is that the object animation itself will not play, as in pulled up and down; that telescope will stay static/frozen, unlike Farstar e3, which has an object animation (being pulled up and down by the Sim).

So my question is... Should we reword the statement, or is it clear already? Nikel Talk Vote! 12:57, March 9, 2013 (UTC)

I think it's clear enough for the time being. I'll look at it again after I've had some coffee. Still early AM here. Dharden (talk) 13:16, March 9, 2013 (UTC)

Grilled Cheese Aspiration Benefit[edit source]

I don't know why but when one of my Grilled Cheese Sims ate grilled cheese when they weren't hungry, and they had unlocked all their aspiration benefits, instead of getting fatter (at the usual pace, or a slower pace), their fitness level went up, rather than down.

This is the first time I've had one of my Grilled Cheese Sims eat grilled cheese since unlocking their aspiration benefits. But is this supposed to happen? Are they meant to lose weight from grilled cheese rather than gaining it? Because the context of the article suggests otherwise. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 10:14, July 14, 2015 (UTC)

I know that Sims with this benefit do not get fat by overeating, which is what it means by bottomless stomach. I'm not sure about becoming thinner because I have never really checked it that closely. -- Icemandeaf (talk) 03:19, July 22, 2015 (UTC)
I have no idea why it happened or how it happened, but the result was the Sim eating grilled cheese when they weren't hungry, got fitter, almost as if they were working out, even though they weren't. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 03:23, July 22, 2015 (UTC)

Sic Templates Readded?[edit source]

May I ask why my edits removing the [sic] templates were reverted? I removed them because I thoroughly read through the paragraphs, and I saw no errors except where I left them. Mariaw (talk) 04:14, October 3, 2017 (UTC)

If I don't get a good reason for it being reverted other than "they were there for a reason", I'm going to revert it back to my edit, because I have read these sentences over and over again, and I see no errors whatsoever in the spots where I removed the templates. Mariaw (talk) 04:43, October 3, 2017 (UTC)
Alright well the first question is, have you checked to make sure that what is written in the article is how it is spelled in-game? If so, then I don't see any reasons why they can't be reverted back. ― C.Syde (talk | contribs) 05:21, October 3, 2017 (UTC)
I didn't even think to check in-game. I will, but I can't right now -- it's really late and I am too tired to check the game. I will tomorrow, though. Mariaw (talk) 05:26, October 3, 2017 (UTC)
"Your recent" and "You still" don't have a space between them and the period prior (Check the diff carefully). The [sic] is there to show that it's not a copying error. —k6ka 🍁 (Talk · Contributions) 10:59, October 3, 2017 (UTC)
Oh, okay. I didn't notice that the missing spaces were the error. Thank you for the clarification :) Mariaw (talk) 15:23, October 4, 2017 (UTC)


Points[edit source]

Is it possible to get more points to spend on the categories or are you just stuck with what your sim has in game? (2601:1C2:4E01:4503:B184:A012:E3E2:EB6 (talk) 23:06, March 2, 2018 (UTC))

You will accumulate more points as your Sims get older. The accumulation is slow, so you can't get it in, like, just in a matter of days. Nikel Talk 07:12, March 3, 2018 (UTC)
