NPCs may be used to substitute RC actions (e.g. warpto) where possible. These should be secure (e.g. account and guild checking on the serverside). NPCs should not be used to substitute RC rights if they can’t be made secure.
No no no no no!

The RC functionality is more than sufficient; there is no need to waste time reinventing these things because it just makes it more complicated when globals are called in to look at staff or security situations. I can't tell you how annoying it is when people reinvent the warpto and it either stops the global warpto working or people who are not removed from RC properly end up with warpto rights they shouldn't have.

Servers should be prevented from reinventing these things wherever possible, not encouraged.
