A :corollary might be, imagine if you let the first hundred people to log on :to your Diku have level 55, or gave the first hundred people to log onto :your TinyMUSH a wizbit. Basically, the people who join the MUD first get to :define the MUD's shape and direction. I think that's a good idea, even outside of the detailed and controlled worlds. New MUDs often have problems getting that initial set of players - that kind of incentive is one way to try it. If your system is fool-proof enough (hah!), why not let it be wide open?
