I was having difficulty with the LAN mission, connecting to ARC's main server to download the Revelation research files, and the admin had ticked me off.
So I went in to the GCD and had him arrested for Llama tampering.
I timed it so I was logging in just as he was being arrested, but it seems that even during his arrest he managed to foil me by disconnecting me from the server two nanoseconds after logging in.
I know the game isn't coded to respond to this stuff, but I'd love to see out-of-the-box thinking like that be rewarded: more social engineering aspects and such.
The most dedicated sysadmin in the world.

It would be a great idea for this game to have such an AI as to respond properly to arrests. The problem is, though, is that you could just get every admin arrested & hack without any fear of being traced & that completely takes the point of the game away. AI is a brilliant thing but you've got to know when AI becomes so realistic that the game's no longer fun.

Of course.
And I realized later- the game did actually respond! There was a new sysadmin, I had to get his voice print again.
I know too much of this would make it un-fun. However, an hour or so of in-game time where the sysadmin takes longer to respond would be good. I simply can't seem to move fast enough on that link to copy the files, and it's hard to play hide and seek when there's only two nodes.
