Driven to Cheating (Anecdotes)
This is intended to be a humorous anecdotes thread, not a list of cheats etc. It's aimed at those who normally don't cheat, but at times are driven to it. What happened in your game and why did you ...

I thought about the necroposting rules before adding this comment.
This is a thread for humorous anecdotes about cheating. That is what I am posting. I see it hasn't been used in a while, but the alternative is to create a new thread for the exact same thing with only the one comment in it, which would be redundant and moot. The new thread would also be lacking the relevant funny comments from previous posters. So do I start a new, boring near empty thread, or revive this one? I'm reviving.

For those who haven't seen this thread for a while (or ever), this thread is for humorous anecdotes related to cheating. It's not about the ethics of cheating, pro and cons of cheating, whether you cheat or not, it's for the funny things that happened in your game that have driven you to cheat, generally when you normally wouldn't. Now on to my funny story. Please post yours as well. I'm dying to read them.

My Sims are on their first trip to Egypt. One of them is working the "Three Relics" Adventure Chain. She's up to "Into The Fire" to harvest 5 Flame Fruit. I think there is enough time to finish. I may have to 'Teleport' (aka cheat) to get her to the delivery location before the vacation runs out (but that's not a humorous anecdote). She just arrived in the garden spot with all the Flame Fruit. She picked two at the bottom of the stairs from one plant ready to harvest. There was only one plant to harvest in the main group. She has four(4) Flame Fruit, but she needs five(5). She can sleep there (she is getting tired) and harvest more when she gets up. Oh wait. She goes home at midnight. I resorted to NRass / Debug Enabler / Options: Ground Vines / DEBUG: Next Growth State for one of the plants. Now she has enough to harvest and deliver before the vacation runs out.
Are there exceptions to the necroposting rule?
Absolutely! Some discussions don't really 'expire' because they are open-ended or even timeless. If you follow the tips in this thread, you'll be able to decide when it's okay to post in an older discussion and when it's not.
