IRE players are just like any other MUD players. I don't see how you can try to somehow discriminate against them and say the ones who enjoy PvP in IRE are different from other PvPers on other games.
Most PvP MUDs try to limit scripting because:
A) That's the intuitive thing to do.
B) Because not all players will want to or will be capable of scripting and hence that will lead to a drop in population.
While B is indeed factual, A is simply assumed. I don't know about another MUD that benefits as much from scripting as IRE MUDs do, however the players who come to them for PvP (and they are a large part of the demographic) do enjoy them as such and will actually defend the way combat works, scripts and all. The pleasure a player gets from scripting and then putting their script and their skill to the test is different from what most people think of when talking about PvP MUDs, but it isn't irrelevant.
