The recent thread on Zoid's magic trick confirms what we all knew:

- the more successful players don't think that rules apply to them.

- Advisors (mods)are powerless, limited to their preferred "behaviour monitor" role

Given that site traffic has more than halved since formal rules were introduced, you have to ask, why bother having them??

I much preferred Ryan's "fickle finger of fate", where he occasionally stepped in and neutered someone.

OK, he hasn't got the time but a couple of anonymous mercenaries could take that job.
