    I hoard attractive townies.

    Does anyone else do this? I mean, it's not really creepy, but...

    Whenever I see a townie in passing who is attractive, I "collect" them. I throw them in the sim bin and keep them for safe keeping, to provide attractive babies for certain Sims in the future. Once their work is done I delete them.

    Okay, so it sounds a little bit creepy. :lol:

      I use cheats to control them when I see them then enter CAS mode and save them there for later. So I guess I kinda do the same thing.

      At first glace i pictured you having a normal looking house and then you go into the basement and there's about 20 of em' all complaining of something and peeing on themselves. :lol: .. (Yeah I'm weird, best not to question what goes on in my mind.)

      I tend to download a bunch of Sims without CC from this site if i see someone with a decent looking avi Sim.

      Not with townies so much but with NPC's like the Paparazzi...oh YEAH! I had a Pap following my sim around everywhere and then one day I looked at her and thought, "Hmmm...wonder what she would look like with a different do and some better clothes." Turns out she was a complete and total knockout!! I saved her to my bin. After that, I pay very close attention to bartenders, paparazzi, dancers, and anyone else that I think may have genes good enough to mix in with the superior genes of one of MY sims! LOL

      I don't hoard them but if they're ugly I edit them and make them cute.

      nah man, my sims NEVER have kids, unless they get into a fight, then they get the daughter of whoever they got in a fight with pregnant, regardless of what the daughter look like :lol:

      All of my townies have the exact same face. :-( But I do have one in my Sims bin, so I suppose it's like having all of them.

      That's why I hate Sunset Valley :wink:
      I prefer the attractive Twinbrookers and Bridgeporters.

      I do that, too :lol:

      I doubt my collection surpasses yours. I only snatched around 7 sims so far. And whenever I tweak someone (like Bella since she's hideous without corrective surgery) I save those to the bin as well in case I have to start over a save.

      I should go on "My Strange.Addiction" for this.

      Collecting townies is like collecting Pokemon. And these are the pretty ones.
      I've captured at least 30 townies.

      I thought you meant you "knock" them on the head and they wake up in your sims basement or something..

      I don't, I don't actually pay attention to my townies. Well I notice the ones with bizarre dress-sense, you can't not notice them :lol: I can't really say any of the townies are attractive in my game, but they're not weird looking either they just look normal (but dress weirdly).

      This is what I do. My avi is a 6th generation townie in my current game.
