A player willing to break the rules could then deregister everyone else by acting on their behalf, then forcing through a proposal giving them retroactive immunity before the rest of the players could punish them.
Another potential problem: think about my recent actions obo Murphy. I wasn't intentionally acting obo without consent there (because I still think that the Points Party scam worked); but I acknowledge that it's highly controversial whether the scam worked or not, and would expect several other players to think that my actions there failed. Should that be given a small or a large penalty? If small, isn't that effectively rewarding scams that don't work, by letting them have effects anyway? -- ais523
