I don't know if they get an actual bit or if it's just the tag showing (cause it doesn't always show up) when you hover over the Sim.
It usually fixes it self by travelling and other things.
Don't think I have an old save to check if they have the actual bit.
Did you never notice a tag when hovering over him ?
Went back to the bugged save again, and he has Neighbor over his name when I hover over him. Hadn't noticed that before. And that tag did disappear when I went to another lot. And it persists after being invited in.
I've also seen Date over sims' names after the date is over.
