Hi Crin,
First of all, sry for my english :) normaly I dont post in an english forum but my bug is making me crazy :) It is the bug that flair mention in his Post. My Sims are learning very quickly every skill. It seems that the bug comes if you play a game longer, but it comes every time. (I think the reason is save/load but not sure about that) First i tested it with an exsisting game and had twallans mods installed.(Mastercontroller and Overwatch). Than I started a new game and it was the same.(after 12 hours playing or so). I unistall twallans mods, because i think they where corrupt, and started a new Game. Helps nothing... after some hours playing the bug comes. So i reinstall sims3 and make a new Game(without any Mods). Nothing changed... after some hours the bug comes again. I think the bug didnt come abruptly. The Sims are learning faster and faster.

I am having the same issue - a teen who joined the drama after school club went from 0 charisma to 6 charisma :shock:

Like rabbito, I thought it could be mod-related, so removed all my current mods (Twallans, some of shimrods and bluejenjitsu - the latter two mostly no autonomy or 'decrease chances of...' mods)but the same thing happened in the no-mods game after 6 saves (approx 12 hours of (non-continuous) play).

1. Are you using any Custom Content or mods ? - yes - Sims Store stuff and a lot of other CC, and Twallan's, BlueJenJitsu and Shimrods. However, the error shows up in both modded and unmodded games.
NOTE: I now manage my CC with CC Magic - in case that has any relevance. (I still load the game through the EA launcher, not CC Magic, though)
2. If you are using mods, are you using any of the 'big ones' like Awesome Mod or Twallan’s mods? - Yes - Twallan's
3. If you're not using mod, did you never use them or did you take them out for the EP (as you are supposed to do) - took mods out and cleared caches, disabled all CC
4. Did you update the mods you put back with a compatible version ? - Yes. (11-3-13 update - currently completely unmodded. AAARGH!!)
5. Do you have University Life or just the Patch ? - Now have University Life
6. Which Patch Level are you at ? - 1.50
7. Did you start a new game or are you playing an existing ones ? - Started a New Game (completely new sim and also with a family that I had saved from a previous world)
8. Did you transfer an existing Sim over or are they new/Pre-Made ? - Tried with both new and transferred sim families
9. What town are you currently playing ? EA or Custom ? - EA - Bridgeport/Appaloosa Plains; Custom: Jericho
10. What is your Operating System (Mac, XP, Vista, Win 7) - Windows 7
11. Do you have the download or DVD Version of the game. - Disc Version
12. Issues seen in Homeworld - not (yet!) in the University 'hood.
