 My god, did you really just request people come forward to change the system and eliminate twinks by justifying your own twinkdom? I think the first and most important thing we can do is to lead by example. Play as if you're being watched by someone every single time you're on. Someone might be hiding in the room with you, someone might be watching the room from another room and someone might be snooping you? Several facets of being watched. You mentioned how large the virtual playerbase supposedly is and isn't accounted for codewise...well, obviously, why would that matter since it isn't being accounted for RP wise by some individuals. It's wrong, totally wrong. Saying that you were abusing code because it was easier for you IRL or somesuch is nonsense. You cannot justify abusing code for your own personal gain. Some muds will ban you for such things. If you really want people to respect the mud, respect the players and respect what it is that Fourlands is trying to accomplish, much less the guy who created the code, you DO NOT ABUSE IT. That's just so wrong on every level. When I brought it up I thought perhaps it was a matter of someone slipping in oversight...knowing that you knew better and intended to do it and didn't care...my god...that's awful. This isn't a flame by any stretch of the imagination, this is me pointing out that you called for players to inform everyone of twinkish action and getting called on it yourself.

I feel bad for you and I hope you learn SOMETHING from this.
