Constant notifications for likes/dislikes?

I'm a bit confused. My sim went to the gym and was working out and every single second I would get a notification for each townie asking if I wanted them to like/dislike rock-climbing or fitness. I'm so confused shouldn't' the pop ups only come for your active household? Why do I need to make a decision for every single sim in my world????? I want to sit down relax and play I don't want to micro manage every fricken sim in the world. Is this a bug??

  • It's happening with random (unplayed) townies as well as off-the-lot played sims for me :/ So definitely not just a played families problem. I got a "likes fitness?" pop-up for one of the random generated townies who were currently jogging around my neighborhood...Hopefully they fix this soon. These pop-ups are gonna become as annoying as phone calls if not...

    Thank you!
  • last night I was surprised to receive pop ups about linking fishing from a random sim in the game. I would like an optionto turn it off .

    Glad I’m not the only one experiencing this. I played the game the other day and in about 10 minutes of gameplay I had about 6-7 notifications. I play rotational but have a lot of sims. It seems very excessive. I think the pop ups should be for the household you are playing.
  • I got a pop up too about the likes and dislikes but I believe I only got the notification once. It happened when one of my other played households stopped by the house of my sim that I was actively playing at the moment. My played household sim started to randomly do exercises and that's when I was prompted to either have her like fitness or not. I played for several real time hours and that was the only pop up I received. It seems to be that players only get the notification when their played household sim is in the area and doing something that triggers the like or dislike. I didn't receive any other pop ups from random, unplayed sims.

    Yeah I marked unplayed but still got it and I'm getting it for random townies too.

    You are welcome I haven't tried it yet but I am sure coming from a creator such a 83bienchen it will work perfectly as intended.. :)

    I get notifications for almost every sim in the game — and I have only a few played families.
    That sims may be in “favorites” tab though, but I got a pop-up for Dina Caliente and I doubt very much I'd favorited her.


    Same, that's why I had to come in here and search for this topic to see what I can do about it, because it's definitely peeving me off! I'm only interested in notifications for the active family that I'm playing (I'd just as soon not have the notifications at all, tbh). I can see there are some hints above regarding settings and mods, so I will go and have a good look at everything.

    Thanks everyone.

  • I'm happy @SimGuruJill addressed it. Let's hope it's fixed soon :smile:
