Good luck with that! :-) Because I tend to always do the same in Sims and can't force myself to try something new/unusal I just decided to kinda do a "challenge" which is complete every single lifetime wish in Sims 3. I just got a list with all the wishes of all ep's and their goals so I can just pick one for my families offspring, generation after generation. Besides that I will try to get some achievements and badges from the Sims 3 website.
My current family adopted. Which means random traits. He's a Mooch. I have no idea what to do with him. I just keep ignoring his Mooch wishes. But I have resisted the temptation of using a cheat to alter his traits. I suppose I could look it up, but he's totally playable otherwise, since I've controlled his other traits as he's aged up.
@Jahnna, You're talking about in game gifting that arrives in your Sim's mailbox, right? Because I think @horseygirl24 is concerned about email in real life.

@JoeJude16 you might want to try needle point you can use bigger stitches with needle point so it might be easier on your eyes! Of course the picture is usually already drawn onto your cloth so it is a bit like going from drawing your own pictures to coloring in a coloring book but it still it might give you a bit of the same satisfaction! There are also a bunch of fancy type of stitches that would probably be just as hard on your eyes as cross stitch but if you stick to a simple straight stitch I think it should be ok! I don't know exactly how they would compare because I could only get into needle point I didn't like making all those Xs that you have to do for cross stitch! Also something about the cross stitch charts always made my eyes go funky I think it had something to do with my dyslexia!

Also, I wanted to ask, how do people generally thank those that gift them? Just send a message on here or...?
Hi! Please do not send me gifts... I did not realize it sends you emails when that happens! I do not want more emails
You can turn that off but you won't see the messages prople leave and also some peoples names on herr are different than they're on the sims 3 website. But yeah, on the sims 3 website in the notification settings you can turn the email alert off.
I can't seem to find a way to shut off email notifications that works.. I can't find a notifications settings. Went to My Page > My Account & Settings > Email Preferences and the page that the "here" button leads to does not work. You can still see the messages without recieving emails, since they appear in the "my messages" section.

That's a shame. It doesn't work for me either. Seems like it cannot be disabled then. But what's the problem with receiving emails? You can just delete them afterwards, they're for notification purposes only.

@Jahnna and @horseygirl24, the controls you are looking for aren't on your Sims My Page. At the top of this forum page there is a gear icon on the left of the Search field. Click on it and you'll get a drop down menu for Preferences and Sign Out. Click on Preferences and that is where you should find email and pop up notification options. I think this is what you are looking for.

She means the emails that tell you that you was given a gift by somebody. You can't turn that off on the forums.

Ok, I was clueless. I just figured it was in there, didn't actually look at each line, since I just have them all turned off. But, we get real emails from gifting? Like in our gmail or yahoo accounts? I haven't gotten any.
(And I got carried away being all excited about he picture thingy)
Anyway, I do get carried away sometimes when I'm trying to be helpful. If I was a bit of a sledgehammer I'm sorry. I meant well.

No need to be sorry but yeah you usually always get an email with what you was gifted and by who and the message if they left one. It goes to the account you registered with on the Sims 3 website. Only on 2 occasions did I not get the email but besides that every time.

So, having dissed Sims 4 earlier, I have now reconsidered because of the upcoming city/apartment expansion that may take away some of the cramped feeling I got playing those tiny neighborhoods. We'll see. But that's another forum.

But that's also only gonna make a change for so long, probably not long at all, and then you're left with the same feeling of "emptiness" most players suffer with.

The truth is we all know EA will NEVER come out with anything that will surpass Sims 3 in variety or playability.

Yeah, that's why I'll either never play the sims 4 or I will wait until I can get all eps and stuff packs extremely reduced once they're finished with it. Until then I will forever stick with Sims 3.

It was a very busy weekend, so I haven't been able to update my wishlist much . But thanks for the gifts @simgeek79 I really like them! Top 5 updated
Sorry to hear to have problems with your eyes @JoeJude16 My mother has the same issues, she also sticks to aida now and can watch a computerscreen about two hours a day before they start tearing so she can't see much anymore. I must say I'm not really fond of linen and use aida myself. I have a new pattern of two peacocks with their beautiful, colourful tails, I will use aida too for that one. Have you tried a magnifying glass so you don't have to strain your eyes so much?
Congrats on your first picture .
I wasn't sure what needle point was @Teanias so I checked youtube. It reminds me a small bit of something my grandmother got me started with. I actually learned crosstitch from her after the needle point-kind of thing. And those patterns can be annoying with all those tiny symbols for every colour, you are absolutely right!

No they're not but you're off cheaper if you buy the content that's only available for the gold version and then the standard version.
