Unwarranted Hostility was bad for me because I was trying to make friends with the teachers for spells/recipes and one fistfight with them turned them into my enemies.
Tell me about it! One of my witches is a celebrity whose reputation plumeted from good to the worst because she was attacked everywhere she went in public, and then she also got the stinking curse from a failed attempt to make a potion. That was the first time I got annoyed with RoM, because I was planning to take magic slow with this witch, yet had to rush through the ranks to become able to brew the curse-cleansing potion. I hear that potion is supposed to be available in the rewards store, but not for me (maybe you need three curses for it to show up?), and I think it would be better if you could buy it in Diagon Alley too, but the only potion they ever sell there, at least in my game, is the one that resets the perks.
Regardless, I don't think the hostility curse is the worst of the bunch, it can at least be useful for misanthropic sims who don't care about their reputation or even want it to be bad. (My evil witch certainly had fun with it, but for some reason I made the mistake of cleansing it.) The stinking curse, though... ugh! My real-life curse is to have an overly sensitive nose that often reacts negatively to scents that other people don't mind or even enjoy, so that disgusting thing really hits a nerve here.
