The Sims 3 has some really idiotic burglars...

Burglar shows up in my Sims house and steals something... the cheap sofa chair in the living room. Sitting not too far from it is a desk with a computer on it. I certainly hope this isn't a bug too...

    It's not a bug.
    I have had the most expensive TV in my sims house and the burglar took a cheap shower. :lol:

    Nope not a bug. Just very sim'esque!

    Next time the burglar will leave everything and just grab the toilet!

    It would be pretty bad (for the burglar) if he swiped a full, clogged toilet from a Sims home...

    I've played for ages, and for some reason, not a single burglar has come to me... ***

    yeah it took a long time for my first burglar to come. but then it seemed after that i got them alot.


    they are also more likely to rob you if you have a big house/fancy stuff

    You have to play using sim-logic. :D

    You see, that wasn't really a cheap sofa. What your sims thought was a value-price sofa was actually a valuable heirloom. The burglar, knowing the true value of things, went for it instead. :lol:

    I have been reporting the exploits of one particularly canny burglar in Bridgeport. Check it out here:

    They are dumb. I had the same one show up at my sims' house every night for a week, even though she got caught every time, they have an alarm, and the mother of the mother of the family beat the snot out of her at least once. You'd think she'd figure out to find a different house by now.

    The burglars are pretty stupid. Of course, the police officers that show up are also pretty stupid as well. Once, after a burglar stole my sim's trashcan, the police officer showed up and said something along the lines of "unfortunately the burglar got away," but he (the burglar) was standing like two feet behind the police officer... it's like "jeez, maybe if you'd turn around you'd catch him!"

    I had one yesterday break into my farm, not farmhouse. He stole the husbands truck. The husband beat him up, but the thief got away with the truck.

    Wow... maybe if I wait a few generations I may be visited by smart burglars. But by then the house I'm playing will have an alarm in every entry room and at least one of my Sims will have the "Brave" and "Athletic" traits... :)


    maybe... :?
