In my game I have been taking notes on how the reputation system has affected my many sims. I never paid much atention to this, the only thing I noticed was that sims got a better reputation from taking a photo of others (mostly with the use of Photo Studio). Checking these stats, I find that about 10-15 sims have the "Great reputation" and about 5 have the "Pristine reputation".
But to my surprise nobody got the worst possible reputation, and only one sim has the "Aweful reputation" (no, we're not dropping any name, Judith)...
I now wonder what it takes to get the worst reputation? I have plenty of mean and evil sims, but some of them actually got a good reputation... Do the sim need to actively do negative socials on repeat?
How is this working in your game?

When I am focusing on him, I always have him use the Rude Introduction on people and I do tend to spam the negative socials when he captures someone in conversation. Right now he has five or six Sims that hate him, and of those, two are sworn enemies. I think he's gotten in fights with three of those Sims, too.
There's a list here.

Mean sims with the mischief/villain aspirations are going to have atrocious repuation rather easily, because they're actively directed to create a legion of enemies. But it doesn't really happen on its own, or because of more complex reasons.

Yes, the same thing happened to one of my spellcasters, too. She would constantly get into public fights with NPCs that were started by them, not her, and her reputation was awful within days. She was also famous, though, so that might have added to it.
I've noticed that newly created sims in my game usually start out with a slightly negative reputation for some reason.
Something wicked this way comes!

I just recently got GF and all my sims started out with a slightly negative reputation - some of my Good, Cheerful sims were even getting those negative rep texts lol. That said, I prefer that to them starting off positive since it’s easier to go positive anyway.
