We all do it, even if we are just testing games out.

What is your favorite way to kill your Sims? By fire? By drowning? Starvation? Old Age?

Give your answers and tell your stories here :D

It really depends on the situation; I don't think I can say I have a favorite. Death by satellite is a good one though and you get the §1000 when you sell it off but if I’m dealing with a fugly townie, death by flies would be my method of choice. If I were offing Mrs. Crumplebottom or that useless Yenta, disease, oh yeah, disease. Electrocution if I don’t want a mess, fire if I’m feeling cruel and for those days when I’m feeling really sadistic I send them in the pool, cut their motives to 25%, pull the ladders, set the speed to 3 and go watch a movie.
 
  Sorry, can’t pick a fav :D

If I'm using the InSIM, then I like to scare em' to death. It's pretty amusing. Also having them get into the pool and removing the ladders is an old fave of mine.

Stinking Dragonfly bouquets are my new favorite method.  (if you wanna spot one and don't know how... look for the green smoke)
 
I place four around a sleeping sim.
 
He/she wakes up when the bladder motivation gets critical.
 
Of course when they're that sleepy they can't possibly go shower...
 
... so it's back to bed.... and good night. ;)
 
Works within one day.

I used to prefer drowning, until I realized what a mess a drowned Sims' ghost will leave all over the lot.

Now my default is starvation or old age, if it's an elder.

I really don’t have a favorite way of killing a sim :violent1: . But I have a favorite sim to kill I made a sim that looks like my boss. Lets just say he has died every way at least 10 times :devill:

I bet you are not alone in the "killing Sims that look like people I dislike" department.

No takers yet on the Flamingo of Doom?

heh, when I palyed sims 1 I did not know about the money cheat. So I would take my sims and have themmeet some one in the Hood. then get them to know that person very well and aske them to move in.
Then I would give them a small pool. put the roomie in it take the ladder away and wait for um to fall a sleep and drown! lmao!! That is how I got rich sims in Sims 1.
 
Now I will kill one off with the Insim. just cuz I dont like the way the act or what their kids look like. God I am mean!

I have to admit that greed mostly comes into play and I use the insim to get their relations up, age them then remove days till aging - that way I get a nice inheritance for the kids!
 
I have once done the pool and no ladders thing and did kill a servo by putting all the motives to zero

Hmm I think Nova-storms real name is Black Widow. Oh and Nova I love the sims you made I promise not to abuse them at all.


*crosses fingers* :cross:

Sim Voodoo! (thats what I call it). I always do that, I made a sim of my ex friend who I keep in a trailer and torture mwahahaha!

As for favorite killing method..gotta love the satalite of doom! (again, a name I gave the death by satalite) I am not sure why :D. I also like scaring them to death.

Whats the Flamingo of Doom?

I usually don't kill my Sims^^
If I have to do so, they drown in the pool or die from old age.

I did the torturing my boss thing with Sims 1. It was so funny to watch him pee his pants. He would cry and I would laugh at him.

So childish, but yet somehow, so satisfying.

Uhhhh, I may sound very harsh but, DEATH BY FIRE!!!!!!! I just love the screaming! *sighs*

And I was that way with sims 1 as well...only then I used fireworks in the house! :devill:

Wow, should we have like group therapy or something? :sad5:

Perhaps our game is therapy? I haven't killed any real people... yet ;)

Yup Yup, I guess in a way it is :)

Exactly. I think playing The Sims has done more for me than any shrink ever did.

i did a post on the sims2.ea.com BBS. It includes my favorite 9 ways to kill a sim. here is the link

http://bbs.thesims2.ea.com/community/bbs/messages.php?threadID=02041f83c44174d395ca4517ede655f6&directoryID=2&startRow=1&openItemID=item.2,item.43,item.61,item.41,item.23

Flamingo of DOOM! [Download] (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=5)

That could be dangerous. As we join together to torture all of our least favorite Sims, some of us could get caught in the crossfire!

Removing ladders from the pool is the one I always used to use, even in The Sims 1 =P So cruel, but an easy way to kill someone off

Thanks for the link Sims Mod Lover.

Oh boss man sim. SAY HELLO TO MY PINK BIRDIE FRIEND !

:violent2: :violent1: :barney: :muahaha: :axed: :spanish: :violent3:

*lays down on psychologist couch*

Why no Doc I don’t think I have a problem if HE was your boss I’m sure you would use the Flamingo of DOOM as well

I love the Flamingo of doom!  Oh that is one of the greatest downloads I ever found! LMAO It gets a lot of use in my game!  I have to say my favorite method of death is running with scissors... because it is never certain if they will get injured or not.. but when they do its just funny to watch!

I love having elders die of old age cause I get bored of them :evil4:
I'm not really a sim killer but when I get bored of a sim and he/she is married to a really hot sim I tend to go to the dark side either by starvation or drownation because I'm not in the mood to break them up :twisted:

Drownation?   :rofl:

Tactful.
 
I looked here first:
 
 
Location: The Netherlands

he he... well it wasn't my intention to write drownation but I thought it sounded nice with starvation :B

I love to set my sims on fire. Watching the torturous death is so much fun. I vote that they add an option in future expansions so you can make the sim bleed to death. It would be so fun to watch as all the blood slowly drips out of their bodies.

P.S. yes I realize I'm sadistic which is why I play the game in the first place. I have never killed anyone in real life though. The sims is a nice outlet for my anger.

^Oh! That would be soooooooo cool! They *really* need to do that...It would work so nicely with my dungeons......:devill:

*Micco reminds himself to make the sim of his boss he has been putting off...*

At the moment, my favorite killing method is out-of-water drowning.

It looks cool when a Sim sinks into the driveway or lawn (although, I killed so many people today that my poor Sim has has multiple nervous breakdowns).

I usually don't kill my own sims but any other sim that comes and steals my newspaper or kicks over the garbage can gets put in a hole in my backyard to rot. I even got Father Time down there once but for some reason he never died.. and you can't woohoo with him either. Useless! :smt113

I just can't kill my sims,i seen one die by fire and a couple by pneumonia and i didn't like it.it was to painful for them and me.so old age is the way to go for me?:smt109

Well, my favorite methods of offing sims are about the same as a lot of people's favorites.  Since someone made an electric chair and posted it on MTS2 you can scream, fry, idiot, fry, as you send a heck of a lot of volts through an unwanted sim, or you can get one of those things that someone else put on that site, from the Harry Potter set, that can make it so that you can light someone on fire, their ashes would be all that's left.  Death by drowning is a bit messy, because of the body, but in the sims game, as dsoon as someone dies, their body fades away.  Making your sim a vamp, then put them outside and removing all the doors to let them fry in the sun is a quick way to off an unwanted sim as well.  With this method, if there's only one sim in the house, you can build up a new family to take over that house as well.

I really enjoy putting the sim in the pool and removing all the ladders.  There is something satisfying about watching them swim round and round looking in vain for a way out!

Morbid I tell ya......I love it too..LMAO!:rofl:

Fencing them in is a runner up to the pool death.  The more drawn out and painful, the better!

I am suprise nobody mention any of those, though I rarely kill Sim (I feel bad and go back to neighborhood without saving)  I did a few test and here are my 3 best:

1- Death by electrocution, I find it hilarious and it is definitely my favorite
2- Death by Cow plant, fast and it gives you an extra (milk)
3- Maxis scissors, when I get tired of a sim I put that pair of scissors on the floor, if the sim picks it an survive I delete them until I get tired of it again and place them back on the floor.  Fast and easy way to kill a sim.

Another option I like is scared to death by vampires. :)  Poor sims are peeing theirselves out before it happens, they don't often die of it unfortunately.

One method I am shocked does not exist (at least I've never seen it) is murder. I guess since the game was rated Teen that would be a little too extreme.

I was playing with InSIM and set everyone in the neighborhood as my lovers (It was a mistake. I meant to make them just friends.). Every time I kissed one sim, anyone who saw would come running and slap me around for cheating on THEM. Do this enough times and a few human beings would go mental.... or postal. So why wouldn't sims?

Yeah... I wish it could have been included, but I think your right that it isnt there because of the teen rating

YET.......

in the sims 1, my favorite method was "the Guinea Pig Of Death" or lighting a firework inside a house (which how i got rid of Motimer Goth lots of times in sims 1). in the Sims 2, i place a grill inside a house and have the sim (either Mortimer Goth or Dustin Broke) light it on fire and watch them die. and thre is the famous cowplant (usefull for elimating townies, or getting townies to move in with help of the "Grim reaper phone")

The swimming pool trick has been an age old fave since the origional sims games, though fear and disease are cool. I usually use the satallite if I am poor as mentioned above it gives you money and so thats always nice. I never use old age, if I am going to kill off an old person I let them die.

I Used to drowning them, But now that I have OFB I just put them in a inclosed room with no way out and make Servo go crazy.

Ooooh servo going crazy?  I haven't tried that one!!!

*runs off to kill some sims*

old age
because of money))

I personally like putting lots of sofas, cowboy chairs, and a fireplace close to said items and watching everything burn.
:brushtee:

Oh, the satellite for sure.   It's quick, violent, and funny as hell.  And its worth simoleans.

Well my LEAST favorite death was accidental.  I was doing a Challenge and writing the story for TSR.  It was Xmastime and I had those electrical reindeer out on the lawn.  Well one of my Sims touched one and got electrocuted, caught fire, and in the end TWO of my Challenge Sims had died and 3 were so traumatized there were psychiatrists all over the place...including the one for ME.  I went back to a saved game and removed the darned things...
I was furious..an Xmas decoration kills a Sim?  I really howled on a forum about it and someone sent me a pic of a Sim p'ing on the reindeer after a slight electrical jolt.  THAT put it in perspective LOL.

I don't kill Sims often...it makes me feel bad too.

In Sims 1, I wanted to keep a house and get rid of the Sim.  She had a little dog.  So I drowned her, and then the dog owned the house.  You couldn't KILL pets or move them out ..so it was all for nothing and I spent hours trying to kill the dog. :error:

Wow the dog owned the house that's great XD But no one to feed him! Wouldn't the dog just like, die of starvation?

My favorite way to kill a sim is with shaklin's vampire hack.  I just take my vampire downtown and have him drain a sim to death.  Then he takes the tombstone home and gets to see as many ghosts as he wants! (Since my vampires tend to be knowledge sims.)

Now shakiln has a hack that allows vampire hunters to stake vampires and  kill them and that is cool too. *evil cackle*

If it's a Sim I like, then I'll use the quickest one I know. But usually I like to drown them muahaha.

Haha, you guys are so ruthless! I get way too attached to Sims and I feel bad about killing them. So if I *really* want a sim dead I just wall them up, put it on fast speed, mute the volume and then go do something else so I won't have to watch. It seems so cruel!

I remeber when I killed about 20 sims in one day via pool. :) But that was before I knew they would PEE all over the place X.X I would have the maid come by and she would stay as long as she could and there would STILL be have the dribbles all over the lot. This made me very angy. So, now I perfer all the other methods of death, excluding drowning.

Suicide. By satelite. Clean, fast...and you even get money sellling the satelite hehehe

Fire...definately. They dance around screaming! I'm sick...Oh well.

Hey, at least we can kill off our sims and have fun with it and not get into any trouble using the various methods of homicide on our sims.  It's better than going after someone in real life, and with the Sims, you don't get thrown behind habrs for the rest of your life like some of those depraved and murderous people out there who just couldn't stop killing.  The biggest thing I've ever killed IRL is a freaking spider.  But this just lets all of us who like killing things off do it in a safe environment where we can let the full fury of our anger out on a sim and deep six him/her.

Call me weird, but I have never killed off a sim....Lol there are some good ideas here tho.

I felt bad even beating up regular citizens in the GTA game..Well there was this one uhm callgirl who laughed! She laughed I tell ya!!

For some reason I just never had the urge to purposely do it, and I am no saint by far. Altho I am getting close to that guy that keeps kicking over my trashcan!! Bastage!

and i say let there be fire

I sometimes let them drown in the pool.  

I do use Insimentator to kill them, actually if you click on the sim, it would say something like "Person or My Status" and then Suicide.

I have downloaded a gun for a sim to shoot another sim and have yet to test it.

I used to like running with scissors--I like how random it is.  However, I appear to have picked up a bug--they will pick up the scissors and then immediately place them back on the ground without having run.  I'm glad I read this thread, it reminded me of the satellite--that ought to work about the same.

I have used the hack suicide by Flies. That was fun. And the drowning is fun to watch too. I have never tried by satellite. Usually I just delete them...lol.

satallite

I have a computer just for my sims just like  Dusty101. I've done the drowning thing, the starvation thing, and by accident the fire death. Now I just let them die of old age, I felt so guilty killing them.
However once in a while I create my sister-in-law, and starve her to death, it's long and tortureous, just what she deserves. OMG I'm bad.

I loved locking my sims in a room with the skunk in Sims1 - and watch them dir from the stench. Anyone try it yet with S2? Everytime I see the skunk is when I'm playing one of my fave families that I don't want anything to happen to!

I kill off all Sims with the cow plant.  The one you can download with a hack, not the career one you earn.  This is dangerous as sometimes I forget the cow plant needs to eat when I invite over sims I created and want to keep.  As soon as I greet them they go straight for the plant.  I can stop them if I catch it in time and call them over but if I don't I have to make a decision whether or not to let them be dead or restart my game.  Depending on how long it's been since my last save and which character was accidently eaten helps me with this decision.  You also get a glass of nectar of life to drink each time a person gets ate, which really helps you out if you want to keep your person young cuz they don't have to be in a good mood to drink it.  

Be careful if you have a nanny, she always goes to the plant and grabs the cake.  Maids, gardeners and ungreeted townies never do.  So just be sure to feed the plant before you go to work if you have a nanny or put it in your inventory till you want to use it.  

I kill all ugly townies with this as well as sims I have made that breed with another custom made sim and just don't produce quality genetics.  Basically, ugly people.... not allowed.

I play a whole town, so I just consider this population control.  I have built a retirement home where I send the old folks to wait out their days once the children are all off to college.  All my sims go to college unless I created them as an adult.  I play, on average about 12-15 students in my own dorm/house I built at the campus.  Everytime one or two graduate another one is in the bin ready to tak his place.  I alternate playing all my houses in my custom created town.  I don't let anyone marry unless they have 3 attraction bolts for each other.  KEEPS ME BUSY!  FOR SURE!  Wish I could have controlled my own children this way!

I generally use the "I am dead" token under SimPE for Sims not in my stories.

See my photo story, Murda - The Trickle Down Theory of Murda (http://www.insimenator.org/showthread.php?t=34009),
by vita4all, under Sim Stories (http://www.insimenator.net/forumdisplay.php?f=167), here at Insiminator.

How to use the I am dead token with SimPE.
You need some familiarity with SimPE, and try only one change at a time if you're not very experienced.
Open SimPE.
Click on file at the top left, then Open.  
You want EAGames/theSims2/Neighborhood/
and then your neighborhood.  Pleasantview is N001, Strangetown is N002, Verona is N003, etc.
Click on the N001, or N002, or N003_neighborhood.package.
Click on Sim Description, then your Sim.
Click on the icon that says Other.  It's to the right of the Business icon.
Click on Memories.
Click on dropdown menu that says Create new... on the far right.  
Click on Tokens, then click on the word Create.
A dropdown menu will appear below.  Scroll to I am Dead.
Scroll to I am dead.
Click commit to save, then save again and the upper top right of your screen under File before you exit SimPE.
No more Sim, or being bothered with ghosts or tombstones.  
The beauty of this is that you don't corrupt your game, like you might if you delete a sim.
You can also go back to SimPE and remove the I am dead token and get your Sim back.


By the way, you'll be amazed at the memories your Sim has that don't show up in the game, particularly around gossip.  It'll be tempting to add memories for some of you as it was me, such as Sim A met Sim B when they haven't so you can speed up a story.  I found this freezes my Sims if they haven't really met.  Once they meet, however, you have a lot of freedom.  My favorite is that you can click on Relationships and change their relationship scores with another Sim so they'll like/dislike each other more and you don't have to work so hard to get your story going.  This is useful in getting rid of crushes and love that you don't want (or do want).  If you increase their score to around 50, you don't need to bother clicking on friends or buddy, because when they meet again, they'll automatically have those happy face bubbles indicating that they've become friends, and that's fun to watch.

Definitely satellite to the head! The other ways take sooo long. For people with no bladder control and no stamina to speak of, sims can tread water for a long, long time.

Death by flies, for sure. Though it would be interesting to see sims freeze to death when Seasons is released...

I usually kill them all kinds of ways to make my storylines seem better...like burning the whole house down to kill everyone inside and around.  

But for quick deaths I use the Insim and make them die by sunlight (or whatever...its the vampire death anyway - they dont need to be vamps)
Or Ill pretend they ate poisoned food and have them die of "sickness"

My sims in general have a very short shelf-life.  It's like a soap! Everyone dies at some point, and then some just get brought back later on if the story needs them.

hhahahahahahaahhahahahahahahahahahahahhahahaha.


DEATH TO THE SIMS!!!!

i officially love this forum.

*dies laughing*

My preference is old age. I kill off all my Elders right after they have their anniversary party (if they even have a spouse), because their families get insurance when Sims die of old age.

generally (at least of late) I dress the sim in question in an "I hate paysites" t-shirt - and seal them in a bit of the foundation with a wine cask like Poe's "The Cask of Amontillado" - it makes me happy

that is a good idea, i tryed to do te same thing but i put him in the basement and made the basement into a lake, but it was superdeep, and he starved to death, and no-one knows what happened!

Sometimes, I dont kill mine instantly.I rather see them suffer the long process of starvation, no toilet etc. I also get a kick outta watching other sims in the house doing there usual activities and watching some of my sims eat right in front of my victim who's just about near death. :D

God you guys are mean :laugh:

All my controllable sims are too nice in one way or another for me to want to kill them. Although I'm still tempted to try out shaklin's vampire kiss, I just hope the conflict between that and JM's fixes isn't either bad or existant at all (pseudo-conflict).

Something I have to say at this point though:

1) I don't understand the "population cull" theory to be honest. It's not like they're physically removed from your 'hood, there's still a character file cluttering up your system.
2) If you guys are that bothered about ugly sims/townies, why don't you just find some nice face replacements and give them a facelift? :oogle:

To those of you doing it just for fun though, that's fair enough ;)

I rarely kill my sims, even those i hate. its the cow plant execution. Its great for non messy marriage breakups. then have their lover resurrect them. If a sim really annoys me to much, or too many people in the hood, I did cull once. That was hard. So i wantch NH size. Also, i like even the sims I hate, they make the game funner.

Make the watch educational documentaries!! bwahaha

Cow plant!!

Two words: Cow Plant.

But flies are fun too.

I love using boolprop and having my sims drown in the lawn xD

explosion or implosion

how do i get the death by flies?  i haven't seen it yet, and would like for it to happen

I think you get death by flies, by a sim walking over trash that has flies. It rarely happens. But my favorite way to kill a sim is freezing.

I think someone said the sim has to step over a dirty plate that's buzzing with flies. Mind you, I've noticed sometimes the sims themselves attract flies if they haven't washed for a while (eeww!), can that eventually kill them then?

Hmm...I'd have to say sickness or death by flies.

Yeah, nannies are the stupidest of the stupid. I put a fence around my cow plant and locked the gate but I forgot that locks don't deter nannies. So of course the nanny gets eaten. Fortunately, a new nanny arrives to take her place so I don't have to worry about social workers showing up ... except new nanny heads straight for the cow plant before I even noticed that she was on the lot. Bye nanny! Fortunately, a parent arrived home right after that.
 
I kept the dead nannies around because the knowledge sims in the house want to see ghosts but the nanny ghosts never pester them, they pester the kids and keep them awake all night. Even the dead nannies are pains in the butt.
 
I killed a nanny with flies once. I built a little room with windows so I could watch. Put in a fireplace, dirty dishes and the nanny with moveobjects on and waited to see if she would set herself on fire, starve or die by flies first. I could never get her to light the fireplace but the flies got her before she starved.
 
In case you haven't figured it out, nannies are pretty much the only sims I kill on purpose. One townie (Quinten McCauley) got cow planted before I built the fence but I brought him back as a zombie because one of my sims had a want to zombie-fy him. He's actually more attractive as a zombie. I eventually moved him out to his own place and play him every so often.

Hmmm?, I really hope he's not a member of this site - but my 'Simon Cowell' Sim came to quite a nasty end... :(

Let me explain, there was this after show party and he had a few drinks (as one does) - upset a few people!. Ended up getting thrown outside - only to be abducted by Aliens, zapped by Servo and finally splatted by a fallen Satellite in the morning! - luckily thou' the 'Twins' are okay and the extra money came in very handy when Servo needed to be repaired!. ;)

Being devoured by flies and crushed by a satellite are my favourites...though I'm still yet to try out the hail fatality.

Cow Plant, defiantly the Cow Plant. B3 Getting spooked to death is good aswell.

A machine gun I downloaded.

My fave is death by drowning or death by fire something about such powerfull elements consuming my sim and killing it makes me all tingly inside. XD Death by sattilite is fun to but takes so long luckly Insim speeds it up XD.

Yeah that's one of the quickest ways to kill off a SIm... I've used that method a couple of times, but really don't like killing a sim off even a nanny. Unless I teach my sims to cook right away, they have a habit of starting fires in the kitchen and burning themselves to death...

Well since seasons came out, its seems the hot tub is top of my list. with two methods of killing sims, lightening and fire but before seasons it was the cow plant.

I like the satellite.I made a cemetary plot on Pleasantview and moved sims in.If they got too whiny I would take them out.I have 20 graves now.

I happen to particularly enjoy death by satellite and death by flies.

Paladins aslt rifel and Lilith Plesant she donr them all

lightning. gotta love ut when they are in a swimming pool and its raining and then WHAM! Floaty to the bottom. I'm very evil but thats my favourite way mwahahahaha

So many new method exist for killing sims since I created this topic that I am glad some people are mentioning new ones and still others are sticking with the "classic ways". :D

None i actually like to keep my sims alive

When they are just flat out freakish jerks I drop a Satalite on the sucker, so the survivors can sell it!

Umm old age? I don't kill my sims.

I have to go with electroction. I love the way the ghosts still have the blackened hair and clothes.

I haven't killed any sims on purpose, and whenever I see that a sim is about to die, I exit without saving. But when I want to torture some sims, I use fire, because I like to see them jump up and down and hear them scream.

either fire or sattelite but once i tried to kill Tiffany Zarubin and she just wouldnt die. 2gah

definately death by satellite poor mofo's don't even see it coming muahahahahahahahahahaha. >:D

They smile, point, and *splat*!! Squished sim. I'm having loads of fun with this. Don Lothario has lost two wives to this so far; I have him plead, he wins, they catch him cheating, they boot him out. He's next. ;D
