Are sims supposed to be able to make donations without being prompted by the player? It's only happened twice, and it was the same sim both times. Very annoying because every time the sim has done it, she wiped out what little money the family has.
Sims will no longer autonomously donate money to charity.
- But they still feel good about doing it.

I made an account here purely to say I have this problem too and it's driving me insane!
I (very generously and not only for her blood) moved in a townie that didn't have a place to live on the map. She has the good, outgoing, and cheerful traits so no harm, eh? I should have known she'd be trouble when the very first action she did on her own free will was donate $100. =.=
I didn't want to play her as a Sim, so I have free-will set to max and I let her do her own thing almost 24/7 and she will use the computer to donate $100 at LEAST every other day. I've only recently started taking a note every time she does it, and she's done it just 12 times since I've started taking note just yesterday.
She now lives locked in a 12x10 room with a tiny bathroom and a cooler to survive on because I've had it. =.= Please don't let this bug get forgotten!
Edit: I have no mods installed.
I am adding a "Me Too" just in case this is a bug, but I have always thought it was intentional. Granted, I have not had it in the extreme that seems to be happening in this topic...
I think I have had sims donate autonomously maybe a half dozen times (unless they are super sneaky and I don't see the pop up notification about it). Every time they have donated a negligible amount to their funds and traits do not seem to be taken into consideration. Also, I had one geek who would donate autonomously, then turn around and autonomously hack the Lothario Trust Fund (which always made me laugh).
Yes it's still happening. My sims just donated $1000, which was over half of her household funds.
