If a person has sufficient active volition to continue submitting the set of messages to the PF that eir houngan asks for, eir right of participation in the fora is violated by any method that prevents this. But to have such a right protect eir zombie status, the person would have to want to continue being a zombie badly enough to put ongoing effort into it. (Note that a rule which makes non-zombie status a condition of playerhood would not prevent persons from posting to the fora, and playerhood is *not* an r101 right, so if formalized that would be a valid way of minimizing the impact of zombies on the game.) - teucer
