How Do You Feel About An Online Sims Game?

I just wanted to say I Voted "Yes".... but here's my suggestion how it could be done if possible. If they could make it where we can host our own world like how Minecraft has it, than it gives us the player the control of who can be in our world and EA could also have their own site of servers that players can join, but know it won't have much in restrictions in who is in the world. These worlds should have a limited amount of players in each world with a rule set of what is allowed and if a player hasn't been log in for certain amount time, than know they'll be removed, so new players can join. This idea of online play should be optional, but still have it where we solo play as well.

I think the only way I would accept an "online game" is if it were optional to play whether I'm connected or not. I would be fine if they made it optional for you to invite your friends to your world, but I don't want my friends to have access to my world beyond scheduled meetups. I would also be ok with there being a handful of community lots that players could choose to visit for online social events. However, it still has to be optional, and I wouldn't want those community lots to be my only option for getting my sims out of their house. I would want normal community lots populated by NPCs that other players can't visit in my game and wouldn't require an internet connection.
