"_____'s Spirit is Fading Away" Message. What is this?

https://image.ibb.co/mQCChb/Screen_Shot_2017_11_08_at_11_46_05_PM_2.png

I've been getting dozens of notifications all of the sudden, saying that random Sims' spirits are fading away. Some of them are old family members, but some are random people I've never seen or heard of. I keep googling this and I can't find any mention of this anywhere.

It seems related to the recent patch that changed how culling works, but I can't be sure, as I haven't played the game in 6+ months. It's also worth noting that I have my culling limit set to 150, and it says I only have 62 Sims so far, so I have no idea what's going on.

If this is the game's way of clearing all the ghosts, I'm fine with it, because my world is currently overrun.

Thanks!

    Bummer! That said this thread is well over a year old and we ask folks try and avoid necroposting in threads (see my signature for an explanation). I'm going to be closing this conversation now.
