Well I'm glad you asked actually because I didn't want to get into the specifics but since you brought it up...

...this basically.

But I'll admit, you caught me in somewhat of a fib. The perpetrators aren't banned as far as I know, though they might as well be. The singular admin who codes the game, instead of adding new and exciting features, had to devote his time to adding countermeasures to protect new players from their abuse. In the end, it was really too little too late. The abusers could no longer spam-kill newbies endlessly but it didn't matter anymore, there were no more newbies left to spam-kill. They left out of boredom or sense of accomplishment maybe, but even if they were to return the extent of their abuse hopefully couldn't be repeated.
