Only if that is not the defined control structure in the game. Player
structures on the order of, "Do what I tell you to do or I will kill
you," are overly simplisitic, but do work.

Quite. I try to moderate a little more subtley than that the rest of
the time. If I'm good, you'll never notice what I'm doing. Its only
when I really screw up that I end up having to stomp my virtual foot,
pout and whine.
NB. I used to moderate one of the noiser FIDO echos, as well as a
couple programming conferences on RIME. Tried to moderate ILink's
C-Lang but got beaten out by the better man. Generally this means
that I actually know nothing about this sort of thing, but like to
think I do.
