I have a cooking club where one of our functions are to cook food. One of my club members invited me to his house. I directed my sim to cook something, and I was soon yelled at and got an inappropriate behavior notification. How is this inappropriate if the whole purpose of the club is to cook food at eachother's house?I can understand if some stranger off the street walked into your house and started cooking, but if you have a cooking club, friends, or family, shouldn't there be exceptions?

I remember this kind of thing drove me nuts in the sims 3. Especially when the person you're visiting is an extended family.

Doesn’t Sims 4 have something like that as well?(apart from the fact I agree with you this shouldn’t happen in the first place when in a cooking club)

The inappropriate feature makes me nuts. My Sim had a super crappy birthday because his girlfriend's sister jumped on him for trying to make his own birthday cake. I'd even tried hiring a caterer and he made some sandwiches for everybody but I'm not convinced he ever even TRIED making a cake. He sat down on the couch and jabbered while my Sim's birthday timer tanked.

This was a bug that was supposedly fixed a few years ago. I guess it's back.

Yeah it’s annoying. My sims can’t shower or sleep at their friends house which is weird because if they’re your best friends you wouldn’t mind, but I didn’t know you couldn’t cook either.
But for some reason random sims coming in your house, using your personal computer, watching your tv, or swimming in your pool is not considered inappropriate!

All Maxis need to do is get your Sim to question the property owner "ask permission to cook" and that would get round the issue. Would that be possible? It's only manners isn't it - in his house? :)

That might solve it. But I liked it the way it was when the game first came out. I'm their god. This series is a god game to me. If I want some of my subjects to use the house down the street then I should be allowd to do it. I'm god of the game. If I want my Sim to use their friend's stove so be it.

I have a mod on both games for that very reason. lol Other than that, I'm not sure if there is any way to actually stop them from reacting like that.

Could you possibly make a clubhouse for your cooking club on a public lot? You could build a cooking clubhouse and just categorize it as a park or art gallery. I've done this with other clubs, like having my painting club at a public art gallery. And it's very reminiscent of the "exclusive" club houses from the Sims 2.
