some ideas:
The Sims 3: Social Life
- More interaction with other sims
- Romantic - Family
- Friendly
- More animations
- Dances
- sitting poses/bed poses
- Ability to have "Circle of friends" where they basically do activities together and are often invited to hang around these sims and do new interactions
- yoga, body building, cooking, gardening classes that sims actually go to with friends to learn new skills faster in group
- Ability for sims to have 'stress' and 'judgement bar' which will affect their moods and how they react to other sims.
- Ability to create spontaneous events and see how your sims will react to
multiple situations (sorta like what the new console version has)
- Introducing: 'Stress' and 'Judgement' bars
Can increase by: - Rumors
- Family shame
- Failure to win contests
- Family debt
- Troubled teens / Insane sims
- Ability to spread rumors about sims. raising stress and judgement bar.
- New buildings: Church, Shopping Mall, Highschool Football/Soccer field, neighborhood gym, local fair/amusement park, Zoo.
- New social events: Sunday Church, Choir Meetings, Go shopping at the mall, Be a soccer mom and attend kids game, charity events, attend FUNERALS FOR DEAD SIMS, have weddings at church
- Introducing: Troubled teens and 'insane' adult sims. They have ability to cause chaos and bring shame and embarrassment to their whole family. They have own set of interactions and are more likely to join an underground 'CULT' with secret meetings, secret circle of friends and ability to crash weddings and church and cause a major scene as a group. Can send them to Therapy/Boot camp/Hospital treatment for cure
- Family with trouble teens or adults are more slow at learning new things and will often miss out opportunities and events to keep an eye on the troubled sims
- Trouble sims will require special attention or they will start chaos
- Normal teens can become troubled if they catch parents having affairs or if parents get divorce without going to therapy or basic neglect.
- Insane sims are born with the trait, can be half cured if they attend hospital treatment or therapist.
- Introducing: THERAPY for troubled teens, Insane Sims, Parents about to get divorced or sims that have too much stress, due to judgment and rumors.
- Introducing: Ability to get addicted [Tv, Drinking, any activity that you overdo)
- Introducing: Rehab for adults: For sims that are addicted to something, sims will judge you less after attending rehab.
- New Careers: Priest, Coach, Funeral Manager, Party Planner, Socialite, Yoga Instructor, Therapist, Circus Clown, Zoo Keeper, Rehab Specialist
- More outdoor group activies: Soccer, Volleyball, Football
- Ability to rent RV and have a camping trip with family and friends
-RV camping or Boat fishing trip
- Fair Activies: Monthly Cookoffs, Baking and Gardening Contests, Lowers stress and rumors if your family wins contests
- Ability to purchase clothes in stores at the mall, changing your daily defaults.

Example, if you had a sim that cared alot about being popular and how other people perceived them and their reputation started going in the toilet, they would constantly be stressed and turn neurotic and OCD. Or sims that have no care whatsoever what other sims thought of them could become annoyingly optimistic, then oblivious and eventually delusional if you play your sim to an extreme.
I think people would enjoy a more indepth character develop of their sim alot more too. Something that shows their sims progress throughout life, a difference between who they were starting in CAS to how they were in their last years.
Don't get me wrong, I think this is a great idea for an expansion pack, it would just need a little tweeking
-Why have all of the clothes taken from you, so you have to buy them? Don't you like having them all free in the dresser?
-I hate the bank idea. Don't people play the sims to get away from worrys like debt and stuff?
-The "circle of friends" thing is just the "Group Outings" that were put in Late Night. So if they added more
stuff i don't think they'll add a new thing.
-I don't like the family shame system and stuff. Because if your sim has a baby out of wedlock or something, then the whole town will start talking about them. And there's already a bunch of people complaining about the scandal system in Late Night.
These are just my opinions:)
-More dance animations were included in Late Night
-"circle or friends" = 'group' and 'group outings' also in Late Night
-spread rumors = gossiping, also celebrity rumors again, In late night.
-You can have funerals
-Priest and churches among other religious things will not be included in the sims 3. Your not even supposed to discuss them on the forums.
I think most of your other ideas are just way too in-depth for Sims anyway.
*Religion will NEVER be added!
*Banks? Too complicated.
*There is already a neighborhood gym..
*'Circle Of Friends' is pretty much like a group outing.
And plus, those are too many things to be added in one EP.
But, you have some great ideas in there!
Bookworm sims should be able to start a book club at their house and groups come round once a week when they recieve a new book
From what I've read in Playfish's FAQ, it's going to be just like all the other Facebook games out there: quest based, and you won't be playing in real time with your Facebook friends. Think YoVille, FrontierVille, and the rest.
Blech.
"We Don't Care If You LIKE The Game, Just As Long As You BUY The Game!"
I Disapprove (Naturally)
I Took The Pledge!
Everything besides the Church aspect. I have a strong feeling EA will not include this as it is too religious and, believe me, I believe in God, but others don't and that would mean less money for EA.
