GR, you completely ignored what I said.
Read it again.
There, now that THAT is out of the way, let me explain something. Sure I want people I know, but I would also like the option of actually having some random people show up that I just might want to make friends with, or perhaps visit some random town. Mostly, I'd like to visit some sort of central "hub" where people talk to each other and can decide who to invite. It could be a trading port too, so that in-game item trading can happen on a pretty fast and exciting pace. There's no way you can say that would be a bad thing.
Remember my quote, and you will see any complaints about wrecking up the towns is made completely moot by incorporating a VERY simple little option.

Quote:I hardly want anyone ruining it. However, at the same time I would like to invite anyone I choose a lot more easily than basically swapping IP addresses. Why not simply add an option to "lock" or "unlock" your town? At the flip of a switch, you can make your town visitable by strangers or just not shown at all on the list of available towns.

"On two occasions, I have been asked [by members of Parliament], 'Pray, Mr. Babbage, if you put into the machine wrong figures, will the right answers come out?' I am not able to rightly apprehend the kind of confusion of ideas that could provoke such a question." ~ Charles Babbage (1791-1871)
