[Pio-temporary] Dealing with annoying disconnects

[Rob R. <rr...@gm...>]

What is the best way to handle a player getting disconnected?  The
ghost of the player stays around for quite awhile (seems like 15
minutes or so) even after the player reconnects and gets the new nick
with an underscore appended.  Is there some way for the admin to
forcibly kill the ghost?

I am willing to hack the admin console to add such a feature, if it's
desired.  Or it might be a good idea to let people change to already
taken names, if explicitly allowed in the game settings?
