Share Your Culling Story

I've already posted my sob story more than once on the sim culling issue but I support ANYONE WHO KEEPS BRINGING IT TO LIGHT. Maxis made a big deal out the steps they took to manage the actual sim culling while doing everything in their power to devastate relationships through the same method. I had my sim go out and make friends with everyone in town and the next sim day only the two people he was living with were still listed in his relationship panel- EVERYONE ELSE WAS GONE relationship wise! AND there's no reason why save Maxis being afraid their engine will crash otherwise. Sorry, but how much more can go into the game if that's the case and do I really want to play with SOLELY EIGHT sims and that's it- no rotation, no extended friendships or family? No, I don't. Do I want to re-introduce myself EVERY DAY? No, I don't. Do I want to have to constantly turn to mods to rescue the Sims from Maxis? No, I don't.

Anyway, my rant. Good luck OP with this thread staying anywhere people will see it. Most likely it will be banished to "Feedback" momentarily.
