I have played MUDs where this was necessary and found it extremely stifling. I may sway that way though more than the average player because although I do not play MUDs solely for the purpose of pkilling people it is a part of the mudding experience that I grealt enjoy (more so than roleplaying). On the other hand I could see where there could be rules where you could/would be punished for pkilling someone who their was obviously no RP reason whatsoever. (ie. A paladin kills a cleric of a goodly god and loots their eq)
