Horse Ranch - Ranch Hand is stealing art!!

One of my Sims at my ranch is a painter & has been decorating their home & barn with her art. I've noticed is seems to go missing. It isn't in the family inventory or anyone else's inventory. Then I saw it... the ranch hand swiped a painting off the wall & it seems to be gone for good. Anyone else have this happen? Is it a bug or part of the game? Anyways, someone is about to be fired!

  • I don't mind the klepto trait per say, but find it is way too common. I wish there was more or less common traits. I mean erratic and klepto would be very, very rare traits in real life, so it should be in game too.

    Also I wish there was more to do with the trait. If your sim has it, and get caught trying to steal, they fail. But when Angela sees her sister steal the tv she can't even argue with her about it. There is no 'catch in the act' or 'yell at for stealing' or 'fire for stealing'. I would love such an interaction, especially if it meant you could also get your stuff back. Then there would be gameplay attached to it, now there is no gameplay around it at all, which makes it just annoying.
  • I need to start paying closer attention. I can't recall anything being stolen from my sims.
  • @JAL Agree! There is even a "return stolen item" interaction, so it seems one could have an interaction that had a chance of prompting "return stolen item" on success.

    ...Although, swiping can't succeed if another sim is in the room. Are you sure Angela saw her sister swipe the tv? Or do you mean she's angry because she saw her sister unsuccessfully try to swipe the tv?
    I feel like either scenario does demand some kind of response...
