The solution here would be to make the various detection spells
not as common as they are in nearly every diku mud. Ensure that potions
of detect invis, sense life, detect object, and other such rampant
silliness are not common. A long time ago, a certain mud I used to be on
had _no_ invis potions at all, and the spell was caster-only, so only mages
could make use of invisible items.
