In explicit answer to Mehdi Keddache's question about whether this
happens....the answer is YES. I was a co-imp on a great shadowrun MUD, but
some f&*king dickhead broke into the computer, ran a program on the server,
and ate all the bandwidth. The sys-admin then spent 3 hours fixing it, and
decided to shut the entire site down for good. The worst part, is that
there were two Great muds on that site, effectively shut down for one
breakin.

Yes.....this does happen.
