Ultima Online: Behind the Robes

Destructoid has a pair of articles that may be of interest to anyone interested in Origin history. Tales of an Omnipotent Public Servant and Further Tales of an Omnipotent Public Servant are first-hand accounts of an Ultima Online 'Game Master' working during Origin's heyday. On the subject of a player who was harassing others but not explicitly breaking the rules:

Every single shift, I would find him at least once to perform the following actions :
1. I would open his character's paper-doll, and proceed to dye every piece of his clothing, armor, and even weapons a bright and festive day-glo pink, or the like.
2. If he were riding a horse, I would dye it pink as well, and change the horse's name to "My Little Pony".
3. I would go to his in-game house, and change the inscription on the placard outside to read "Y.M.C.A. -- Public Showers."

You know, maybe never getting Privateer Online was for the best.
