One of the big things abotu your description wa that the player stil
lsolved it IN CHARACTER. A subtle but important point for an RP
environment.  if the MUD were 'real", this atctic woudl stil lwork
(charmign the brownies and getting it to say what he needed.

What i consider abuse are exploitatiosn of thinsg that are obviously NOT
part of the simualtion. A classic exampel beign, on MUDs whre when you drop
carrier yo uare instantly removed, droppign carreir if you are i n a fight
and losing.
