SIM-ply Amazing

As my esteemed colleague has envisioned, there is actually a world of this type. I have personally not played it, but "The SIMs" is an online game where you create yourself a character and then live in a world with other online participants by using chat to communiate. It seems to be quite time-consuming and reports are in that there are already people "losing" themselves in this make-believe world. This is not too unlike the would-be warriors that were roaming the sewers in the late 70s/early 80s to live out their Dungeons and Dragons fantasies. I wonder if in this new game, you can create a Captain Heinous charater and go to a bar, get stinking plastered, steal a car, run over pedestrians, drive into the ocean, etc.?!

Sounds cool!
