We had a new wizard (Muz) who had been caught helping players cheat and was on parole. He met a wizard on another mud that was a player on GumbiMud, and offered to exchange cheats.

The wizard on the other mud was a friend of mine.

So my friend let me use his wizard to have an incrimination conversation with Muz, which I then used to remove his wizhood from GumbiMud. He asked me how I knew, and I told him I had broken into the other mud and logged all the conversations, and saw this. He believed me.

Since security on LPMuds was so thin at the time, I felt that fear was a good security model. :)

Here's some of the conversation with Muz on the other mud as my friend's wizard character:
