Am I being really niaive here? I haven't played UO, but wouldn't the
whole problem be sorted out if players with low experience could not be
challenged by those with high experience until they have achieved a
certain level which assumes that they can deal with it on a more even
basis? Basically, if a novice is foolhardy enough to challenge a more
experienced player they are fair game, but if it happens the other way
around the game engine could invoke a response that the opponent isn't
worthy of the time of day.
