Sims are obsessed with cleaning

I'm talking about sims who don't have the neat trait also. It probably doesn't sound that bad but it's extremely annoying to me because I pay to have a maid come every day, and I'd rather my sims spend their time doing other things. But literally a second after a puddle forms on the floor or a sink gets dirty like three of my sims automatically get it in their action queue to mop the puddle or clean the sink, even the child sims! I'm thinking seriously, what child is going to choose to go mop up a puddle over playing a game or watching tv?

This seems to be a recent occurence also, so that makes me think it may have to do with the recent patch or something (either that or my game is just really buggy right now lol).

  • Only thing i hate is fact desk or vanity table there be no dirt on it but they go clean it..that's annoying part.
  • I just noticed mine were very tidy today. But I like it like that. -shrug-
  • Yes, I've noticed my non-Neat Sims, all Sims really, cleaning a lot more recently. Even Vlad took out the trash before he left when he came creeping around to snack on my Sim. Her bedroom door was locked, so he couldn't get to her, but he stuck around to play Sims Forever on her computer, put away a book, wash a bowl and take out the trash. lol

    It really doesn't bother me that much though. Except when they happen to break a sink or toilet, stand and whine about it and then mop the floor over and over and over instead of fixing anything first. *rolls eyes*

    Yeah, my non-neat sims are obsessed with mopping in particular, which is pretty annoying during thunderstorms, I tell you what. It extra irks me when a Squeamish sim goes out of their way to clean stuff, and then get crabby they did so. It's like ... dude, you have a maid for just that reason, you have no one to blame but yourself.
