Hm, I see. That really is a shame. I do hate to say this, but if this is the only way that the death calls can be implemented, then I don't think I want them. They really do make the game unplayable for me. Like I said before, my Sims are in a constant state of sadness now. Whenever I think I'm finally about to get rid of that moodlet, BAM, there's another death call that stacks it right back up to two days again.
There just isn't any fun in having my Sims be so sad 24/7. Seriously, they're always so sad that they can barely even function. All they want to do is cry, often causing them to neglect their needs. It's even worse when the toddlers somehow get these calls, which shouldn't even be possible to begin with, because there's not much you can do for them to wear out their sad moodlet.
I might make a poll. It would be interesting to see how the community as a whole feels about the calls.
