On that note, I've also left some key parts of adding these to a working MUD out. You could add what I put here, and it will compile fine, however it wont have any affect. This is another safety net, if you aren't competent enough to implement these without the few details that are missing... then it isn't safe for you to have them because you could not properly prevent them from abuse.
[DISCLAIMER] That isn't rudeness either, just simple fact. But if you felt abused by it, you don't have my apologies. Sometimes the truth hurts, and I am a very blunt person. I don't have problems with the truth, and if you do, it really is your problem.
