Or at least you need a way to control nagtive behaviors. The big problem ist that in teh RealWorld (TM) actiosn have long lastign consequences. Inetrnet game showever are basivly anonymous. I cna be abutthead and it doesnt cost me a damn thing. If you get everyone to ostracize my character, I can roll another up. TThe RealWolrd(TM) has police and al lkidns of toher artiffical, freedom limiting stuctures to allow a society to function. How do you do this in a MUD/ if you don't do it, do you midn that a few idiots can quickly tear down an entire society (I sure do.) JK Jeff Kesselman Snr.
