     Most servers have limitations on what’s acceptable for wardens and guards to do, but that’s mostly to prevent RDMing

Applies to game genres such as murder mysteries where there may be valid reasoning for attacking suspected players, as the aim is to purge the game of players tasked as being "murderers" before they can kill the remaining innocent players.
