Don’t worry about the “improve game play” clause. Trying out stuff is completely fine! I just don’t want people recording events for selfish purpose without other player’s consent.
I mean, I could totally see someone creating a voyuer room where a camera bot will record anything going on in the room, allowing other characters to play back the events ((read the logs)) from some other place. As long as the purpose of such a bot is clear, I see no issues 
I haven’t defined them yet, but it will things like:
- No access for non-character commands such as create new characters, edit player settings, list owned characters, etc. This is for security reasons if you run someone else’s bot-code.
- Lower cost for operational commands such as go (use exit), create exit/room/area, edit exit/room/area, to allow the bot to perform such commands in a more rapid pace compared to ordinary players.
- Same cost for room communication commands such as say, describe, whisper, ooc.
- Possibly higher cost for global communication commands such as mail and message, to mitigate the impact of possible spam bots.
