With free reign? I would be a fair, but zero tolerance GM kind of like this:


1) I would issue a one-time warning to anyone who is racist, sexist, homophobic, or insults the staff either in game, on the forum, or on IRC. If they continue, I would IP ban them and permanently delete all of their characters.

2) I would flag the most inappropriate names in game. I would tell them that they have one chance to come up with a better name that isn't against the rules, and if they fail to do that I would put their character in suspension until they write an email with a new appropriate name and an apology for wasting a volunteer GM's time. I would have to be more leniant than I usually would though, or the server's population would be around 12.

3) I would go through all of the most stupid petitions and suspend their characters indefinitely, until they again write an email explaining why they were giving the volunteer staff of a free game a hard time, and why they wont do it again in the future. If the give a fair reply they are free but with the understanding that their one get out of jail free card is now used. If they continue to be stupid I would IP ban them and delete all of their characters.

4) I would work through the backlog of petitions from reasonable people and try my best to resolve their problem.

If I had any time left over after that, I would arrange some fun GM events and I would start work on a jail system that I saw on another server, to help deal with the above points in the future.
I hope to whatever god may be out there that you are never put in charge of anything.
