    My sim keep taking her own stuff but it does not go into her inventory. I do not have the Sharing is caring on so yea needs to be fixed ASAP. She is not a Kelpto either.

      She is taking her own things to recycle. Have her recycle something at least daily and she will stop.

      What kind of stuff do they autonomously recycle? Stuff from the inventory or stuff in the house? And is it tied to one of the new traits?

      Mine took her own tv and pet food bowl before I noticed, which were in the house, It's the recycler trait, I forgot what it is called but the text does warn you that something will happen if they don't recycle.

      I have found that if my sim gets tense she will constantly try and swipe her own things , which is so bloody annoying

      Who came up with this stupid idea needs telling that annoying things do not make a game better

      I had to remove that recycler trait. If this is the result, I will never use it again. This trait is officially going into the list of traits I never, ever use because they’re either annoying or entirely useless.

      I will use the trait but I will make sure they have a recycle unit and supplys.

      I am glad that they are trying to make traits have noticeable effects but this is definitely not one effect I want. In the next patch they need to completely eliminate this aspect of the recycler trait. I like it other than that. They also need to tone down the incredibly annoying "Sharing Is Caring" NAP or maybe have a popup that has sims ask if they could take something and perhaps offer you another thing in return? If I were the developers that is the way I would have approached these neighborhood plans. I'd have user-directed decisions based on the themes of the plans.

      I SEE SOME OF MY PROBLEMS NOW! LOL Check the plans that were voted in by sims. Sharing is caring will make sims steal even though they normally wouldn't.

      I dont like some traits because of their effects, for example there is this one in ts3 that made sims walk around in their fancy formal clothes almost all day and it just made want to tell them to chill down a bit, but i am sure there are others who like these "annoying" traits XD I just avoid the traits i dont like.

      Maids tend to swipe things too a lot.

      This sounds so horrible, at this point I won't purchase the pack even if it goes on sale as this would kill my interest in the game completely,. Heck, even if it was free I would not put this nonsense in my game.

      Hope they tone down the stealing soon.

      i'm having this issue with sims who aren't kleptos and with the NAPs all forcibly turned off and every lot i have is still getting stripped bare every time i visit it, so waiting for a patch is probably the only safe option here lol

      Heh went too a library and the npcs kept stealing the bookshelves. And the computers.

      Every time I see a thread about Eco Living it makes me so happy I did not buy it. I'm all for traits that have a impact but as I seen here on this thread "recycling" bookshelves being actively used in a library or a working tv is just weird now if a object is broken or laying on the street or in a dumpster this would make sense but just randomly swiping everything just shows how little thought went into this pack and it shows.

      I liked your title, lol. Dora would be horrified over all this swiping. I'm glad I trusted my instincts and didn't buy this pack.
