Um, why? I'm a much bigger player than admin and I've seen this
attitude before but I don't understand it. Why penalize a player
for the inadequacies of a programmer? The player is doing EXACTLY
what he's supposed to - it's the game that is behaving improperly.
Why not just take off your belt and whip the server? (Or, more
appropriately, the programmer. :)
