What is the point of the "challenge to be kind" option?

I completed the positivity challenge (first one I have actually participated in tbh) and I have all the posters which is nice, however, as far as that I don't see what it adds to the game. When I use the challenge to be kind on another sim it doesn't do anything. It doesn't give a moodlet nor does the target sim do anything "kind". I don't know maybe it's my game but all it adds is any extra trait to the sim who completes it. Maybe I'm wrong. Can anyone shed some light on this?

    Seriously I wish they would've just added these motivational posters to the game permanently instead of in a challenge that lasts for one month.
  • With the challenge now over, there's no real point in the option and wished it would unlock the challenge aspiration at least. So to me, it doesn't do much of anything interesting whatsoever. Sims are already too nice for their own good honestly.

    I finished the challenge but haven't really played much since I finished (US Thanksgiving and all that) so I'm not sure if Sims get an extra moodlet or maybe some extra interactions or boost to making friends.


    I think when I get off work tonight I'll try it on a random sim and see if the friendship increases more. I tried it on my sims husband, father and a friend of hers and got nothing.

    Well I cheated my way through it with UI Cheats just to get the posters. :p

    This explains the Kindness Ambassador trait. I never called Millie back to receive the trait though because my sims are already kind. :)

    Thanks for the link. I really just wish it did a little more like when you challenge someone to be kind they say something or do something kind for someone else or it could be like getting a curse from jungle adventure where you talk to a sim and it spreads from sim to sim.

    The "Challenge to Be Kind" interaction makes the other sim act nice for a while: he/she will clean up, pick up the trash, tutor children, favor friendly interactions, etc. It's similar to how scientists and vampires can force other sims to clean, but with further beneficial effects.


    Ahh okay... I might just have to use it more often to see that because it wasn't doing anything for me.
  • I think the pomposity challenge could have made more sense if it was possible to be meaningfully evil as a sim in game without resorting to mass murder of sims as a player. Which doesn't affect how evil your sim is, anyway.

    I tried to do this, but I couldn't figure it out. I got one picture out of it.
