Just wanted to say thank you for the responds from the helpful on a more clear picture here. As a few posters did not understand, I knew what the general plan was with move/merge and such, however the concern was stemmed from the post yesturday when said "until cities are empty". That is what left me off balance, was like a news flash from an unfortunate issue happening.
Bottom line was, do I need to leave my established home, pick up the items that means much to me.. and become a refugee in time of merging war.
I'm good with fact I can continue establishing my new creations in EA Land, been actually alot of fun being out in the world with the others. Running a lot, majority of your play time tends to make you a hermit. Your home becomes your every clicking way in the world and yes, you tend to miss out on alot going on in the community. You also miss meeting many that has no interest in your current lot attraction.
I totally enjoyed other night being a temp roomie for a money lot. The guests were fantastic in helping, and I loved the "busy". It was like getting a piece of chocolate to satisfy that sugar crave! So with this said, and now convinced my elder sims will be safe, just in hibernation for a bit... I will continue to enjoy my "simmie vacation" until all comes together like a puzzle being completed.
Again, thank you all who gave clairity on this issue.
