Well, then we have to organise the ranks of power, and what sort of power is given to whom. The problem with these sorts of projects is that you are giving power to someone you have never seen in real life and may not be able to trust etc. which really comes to question it. Also, I know many games with corrupt admin, or admins who ban people for a minor incident but one that concerns the admin in question etc. We would really need to think up the procedure of choosing admins. Mods are more understandable, since, they have less power but can do something when they are needed to. It might be possible to choose some very good admins who can be trusted, but many mods with the power to report incidents which simply sends a snapshot of all activity within the previous 60 seconds say, and the admins can look in to it so that we would not have to cross the issue of admins in each time zone.

Also players might lie or exaggerate about one other player's behaviour. Him getting banned undeserved.

Like this:
Evillplaya: "Mr. Admin, Player-X stole my loot! Lot's of times."
Mr. Admin: "Player-X shall be punished" /kickban Player-X
Player-X: *Fading to the world of the banned* "Nooo I'm innocent! Aaaaaargh!!!" *Lost his character*
Mr. Admin: "Evillplaya, give me 2k GP and I'll forget this"

But ofcourse, players should be bannable.

People steal. Its a part of life... if someone takes something from you that you wanted, confront them. I have had serval people steal from me. 9 times out of 10 if I asked them to give it back and they complied. Only one or 2 has ever cussed at me for asking. Somehow they thought I was in the wrong. I killed the monster by all rights thats my booty. In the spirit of sportsman ship if I have extra somethings that someone wants All they really have to do is ask. Don't steal PEOPLE! lol :P
Have A Happy Day!
