That's an interesting way to handle things, Arsenal. I'd never heard that before. I will concede that there are characters unimportant enough that it really doesn't matter what happens to them, or who controls them. Further, content introduced by a player really should be their responsibility and their privilege. If you can get to a point where people are posting responsibly, then it shouldn't be much of a problem to allow limited NPC control...to a point.

I haven't tried that yet. Maybe I should.
