What stops people from using such stupidity is: the players.

If a judge in a realm I am in banned someone for wearing stupid socks or 
having a bad haircut, I would personally organize a protest campaign to remove 
that judge from power. It may not work, but you can bet that by the time I was 
done, that judge would be regretting the day he decided to do something so 
stupid. I would like to think that there are other people that have the same 
opinion, and would do the same.

(And, no, I don't play in realms where wearing a pink tutu (or is that *not* 
wearing a pink tutu?) will get you banned. That kind of nonsense isn't for me.)
