Paraphrasing what Gordon Walton said at a GDC lecture, "Ban > them by the hundreds." (referring to troublemakers, particularly 'hardcore > gamer troublemakers). Ok, What could a single person do that would warrant a ban. I've = read the many things this particular person has done via his TFC memoirs = or whatever you might call them. It seems this person spends a bit too = much time online and may take your worlds far to seriously. Since this = person lives in your world they try to impose changes as they would in = the real world. They want to make the world you offer them more = realistic and fair. So if this person is doing nothing more than speaking his mind then = maybe your MUD, your programming, or your mind is not ready to accept = the idea that many people regard your MUD as their world now and not as = an escape or past time. Just as AD&D became lifestyle for many people, = I've seen chatters engross some college students completely. The = banning or kicking of their account sends them into utter depression. - Justin Rogers, CEO DigiTec Web Consultants _______________________________________________ MUD-Dev mailing list MUD-Dev#kanga,nu <A HREF="http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev">http://www.kanga.nu/lists/listinfo/mud-dev</A> </PRE> <!--X-Body-of-Message-End--> <!--X-MsgBody-End--> <!--X-Follow-Ups--> <HR> <ul compact><li><strong>Follow-Ups</strong>: <ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00745" HREF="msg00745.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Trouble Makers or Regular Citizens</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> J C Lawrence <claw#cp,net></li></ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00742" HREF="msg00742.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Trouble Makers or Regular Citizens</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Par Winzell <zell#alyx,com></li></ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00738" HREF="msg00738.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Trouble Makers or Regular Citizens</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> "Todd McKimmey" <rufus#wombatgames,com></li></ul> <li><strong><A NAME="00737" HREF="msg00737.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Trouble Makers or Regular Citizens</A></strong> <ul compact><li><em>From:</em> Matthew Mihaly <diablo#best,com></li></ul> </UL></LI></UL> <!--X-Follow-Ups-End--> <!--X-References--> <!--X-References-End--> <!--X-BotPNI--> <UL> <LI>Prev by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00734.html">RE: [MUD-Dev] Gamasutra: Online Justice Systems</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by Date: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00736.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Gamasutra: Online Justice Systems</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Prev by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00749.html">[MUD-Dev] Meta: Questions about the MudDev FAQ</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Next by thread: <STRONG><A HREF="msg00737.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] Trouble Makers or Regular Citizens</A></STRONG> </LI> <LI>Index(es): <UL> <LI><A HREF="index.html#00735"><STRONG>Date</STRONG></A></LI> <LI><A HREF="thread.html#00735"><STRONG>Thread</STRONG></A></LI> </UL> </LI> </UL> <!--X-BotPNI-End--> <!--X-User-Footer--> <!--X-User-Footer-End--> <ul><li>Thread context: <BLOCKQUOTE><UL> <LI><STRONG>Re: [MUD-Dev] RE:Troublemakers and their M.O.</STRONG>, <EM>(continued)</EM> <ul compact> <LI><strong><A NAME="00799" HREF="msg00799.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RE:Troublemakers and their M.O.</A></strong>, Chris Jacobson <a href="mailto:fear#technologist,com">fear#technologist,com</a>, Thu 30 Mar 2000, 19:24 GMT </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00802" HREF="msg00802.html">Re: [MUD-Dev] RE:Troublemakers and their M.O.</A></strong>, Lovecraft <a href="mailto:dave#darkages,com">dave#darkages,com</a>, Fri 31 Mar 2000, 01:02 GMT <UL> <LI><strong><A NAME="00805" HREF="msg00805.html">RE: [MUD-Dev] RE:Troublemakers and their M.O.</A></strong>, Tess Lowe <a href="mailto:tess#realtimecontrol,com">tess#realtimecontrol,com</a>, Fri 31 Mar 2000, 15:47 GMT </LI> </UL> </LI> </ul> </LI> <LI><strong><A NAME="00749" HREF="msg00749.html">[MUD-Dev] Meta: Questions about the MudDev FAQ</A></strong>, Jon A.
