For the sake of realism and roleplaying i think it would be great if you couldn\'t just walk through each others avatar. is this possible? I ask this because... well imagine, there you are walking along the road when in front of you three toughs block the way, they tell you that there is a toll, pay up or go back, currently you just walk straight through them before they\'ve even finished typing, however the scenario changes if you can\'t simple walk through them, do you pay? do you fight, do you turn back?
Our intrepid adventurer is now a bit peeved who does he call for? The authorities of course. The Watch, we should have a City Watch, miscreants can be reported and Watchmen dispatched to make an arrest, Watchman can be either NPCs or even PCs who have joined up, Watch houses around the city hold pictures of those criminals still at large, another job opportunity for those who wish to become bounty hunters.
As for punishments, Death for the more serious crimes (PC is wiped for ever) and has to generate another.
Incarceration (the designers will have to develop either a prison environment/building where the bad boys and girls are chucked)
Fines for minor crimes such as petty theft
Exile from certain cities within the world (forced to move elsewhere or take up the life of an outlaw)
just a thought really
