I like this idea. The problem is that EQEmu needs a command console in game for it to be viable. Not just text but literal windows and visibility tools to see the under works of the game. Then the Client would need to have a paging ability. For instance the way the database works now while efficient to players would be horrible to a EQEmu Admin.
What you would need to do it divide the database among zones rather as a whole. Meaning that gfaydark would be its own whole database with all the tables that we have now. Then an individual roll back so if some idiot comes in and spawns some super god in a newbie area a single EQEmu command (Not usable by "gm" class players could reset the zone to an earlier point.
Another problem is object spawning. What about spawning my forge. As far as I can tell it has to be done at the database level. Making a new command that will spawn in placeables would be useful to a wiki server.
I understand the problems that the EQEmu staff would face. I run a fun little server with my friends and for the first couple of days all they did was spawn in items and summon uber creatures. But after they grew up they actually deleted there characters and played without uber commands (Besides the occasional goto when lost etc). I think we would defiantly see idiots. But with a little time and caring they would be eradicated.
