Call Family Bin Sims?

[anillee]

I apologize if this is the wrong place to post this, but I've searched this site, MATY, MTS2 and even did a Google search to find out if there is a way you can call Sims in the family bin.  My deal is I have more than a few Sims that I don't want to play at the moment, but I don't want to have the Sims I am playing not be able to call them (the infamous "so-and-so doesn't own a phone).  I have been buying cheap houses for these sims and sticking a phone in there so I can contact them but now my neighborhoods are getting cluttered.  Any help or tips would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks

I would say set the ones you dont want to use as townies then you could call them and if you ever wanted to play them you could get them back.

Thanks  I didn't know you could do that.  Just did a search and found out how to do it.  Thank you again
