How to turn off time-limited events
I want to do the Reaper's Rewards quest in one save but I don't want it popping up in every household in every save. How do I turn it off?

Wow, four months and 17 pages of pleading. I haven't played Sims 4 since my post a while back and only looked back in this forum b/c I saw someone had given me xp for my post.
As I said I was going to in my previous post, I did uninstall Sims 4 and all its packs (freed up SO much disk space for new games, WOW!) and I did go back to playing Sims 3 instead on those days when I get the urge to create my own little family and story.
I've seen other people posting that they were going to uninstall the Sims 4 because of these mandatory events as well. For every player that posts, there are many who feel the same and don't bother telling you, just quietly give up and uninstall.
You might want to consider taking this seriously.
Sincerely,
A former Sims 4 player
@ShellSh0ck The only reason I'm still even playing The Sims 4 is because I'm still trying to get a number of past projects redone, so I'm obviously still playing it for a very specific purpose. It's taking a while, so I'm just trying to get 'em done as efficiently as I can. If I wanted real enjoyment, I would not be playing The Sims 4 otherwise, especially now with how bloated it's become. The Reward Events have genuinely ruined the core point of what The Sims 4 is supposed to be. But yeah, you're way better of sticking with the older Sims games if you actually want enjoyment.
So unfortunately, they're doing another Reward Event on February 4 and is going until mid March, which means more "In your Face" icons and prompts, unless for some reason they decide to give us an opt-out button, but I seriously doubt they will. 😕
Ugh. Are they deliberately trying to run us off their game? I’m already on break until the overlapping festivals and underwear/shower bugs get fixed. But I guess I can add this to the list of treasons why not to play for awhile.
@Yuke2001I really wouldn’t mind if the phones were functional but as we know EA, they are not! I already have enough much better looking deco phones and don’t need any more!
@LuvMySimz I've seen CC creators make way better stuff than what EA makes. Also, for me, it feels like The Sims 4 anymore is about 'getting stuff for the game' rather than it being about 'playing the game', especially since it like nags you to buy more DLC (full-screen prompts, the shopping cart icon, etc.) and nags you about the 'Free Rewards'. I genuinely feel like I'm being ripped off by EA, especially since I'm one of those Simmers who actually paid for the game (I'm sure others feel this way as well).
