I say screw the weekly bonus crap and give us back the visitor bonuses. If we have visitors, we get a bonus; if we don't have visitors, we dont get a bonus. It should be all about what we provide as a property and as hosts. Not just some whimsical "gift" that's barely enough to fill a fridge, or upsize a lot, or even buy half the items for sale in a store these days.
I'm in a mood this afternoon....can you tell

Not to be contradictory, but in TSO 'good hosting skills' have very little to do with what makes a house popular enough to get the max bonus. It should, but it usually doesn't
. I think the devs figured this out, and that's why they took out the property bonus. If the top 100 list was revamped to mean more than just how long your house stayed full (VH) and had more to do with how they rated the service they got while they were there, I'd be right there with you campaigning for the property bonuses return. As it is now though, sims don't *have* to earn it. Many do CHOOSE to earn it, but the ones that don't get it right along with the ones that do. That doesn't make for a fair playing field, IMO.
Also they'd have to turn the property bonus way down to be in line with the current economy of EA Land and TC3 since payout and cost of items is only 10% of what it was, with the exception of the cost of food.
