In one case there was a prior promise.  The admins by stating a rule
set or by not stating that a commonly assumed rule set did not apply
(doncha love being damned by assumption?) have made a promise to
their players that certain things will be true.  When they turn out
not to be true, its little wonder that players get upset.
