I see old people...

★★ Guide

Is there a way to get rid of the old people around my town. I feel like I’m in a retirement town and it is getting depressing☹️

 

I tried to start rival relations with the one I could but they keep re-appearing in other areas? Am I missing something?

@GracieSeven they're not old people, they are zombies. You can only kill them with a peashooter found in The Sims 3 store. But in order to get that peashooter you need to have supernatural. But that's a lot of work, so just ignore them and give them pudding.

Thanks for your response. It’s a bit disappointing that you can’t get rid of them. If would have been bearable if they don’t have hunched backs. At least then you can do makeover. Never mind.

@GracieSeven when you go to parties, add people to your list, so click add to contacts. then they will appear around town and you can start friendships.

@GracieSeven I've made my Sims establish relationships with retired NPCs and they have been slowly being replaced by young ones.

Thank you for your suggestions. I have been doing all those, I was hoping there was an easier way. I don’t mind old people, I think it’s their hunched backs that bothers me. Not all old people have hunched backs!!!

@GracieSeven I know right! esp if you have one as your boyfriend or husband etc, and the owner retires them! They are old and hunched and when your sim isn't! Lol

ITA  Especially nowadays it feels very AGEIST  to me that EA  even throws that stigma out there.   Awhile back there was a “glitch” where the back hunch was gone - then the Devs “fixed” said glitch and added the hunch back.  
Way to stereotype a class of people- No Good  IMO

I think the main thing is that if the old people having hunchbacks is to make them look old, so you know it's not a younger Sim with grey hair.
