On the other hand in RL yuou can usally hear fomr where the voice comes, 
in text chat you can't. FOr the people, not LL, handling the most of the 
abuse greifing an other stuff, and the most common problem in any 
roleplay group Drama, text logs where names aint unique will be a 
terrible mess to sort out. They wil case new drama's as well.  All sl 
roleplayers I know think this is about the worst they heard off EVER.
