I was informed of a unique bug last night, I have searched the archives
and don't see anything about this bug. The situation is if a player uses
a unused name to login with you get the following:
No such player exists.
Please check your spelling, or type new to start a new player.
If they use this name (or any unused name) aproximately 22 times it
causes the mud to reboot on it's own, in doing this the mobs they are
using to gain with repop after the mud boots again, so they don't have
to wait for the mobs to repop.
This is not a really terrible thing but figured I would throw it out
there for others to be aware of. There may be other things that this can
be abused by this.
