Of course it's realistically possible. Pausing multiplayer games is not new.
Abused how? This isn't even a game that tosses you in a map with fifty randoms; you
choose who you play with. If people use pause in a way that doesn't suit you, then the same as anything else about their playstyle that doesn't suit you, you can just...not play with them.
Pausing the game and then quitting to "cheat" death.
Well no, the abuse Cyzax was alluding to in the post I was responding to was explicitly named as being due to "pausing it for everyone". So assuming that PvP is not really the focus of the discussion here, 'cheating death' is clearly not what they meant.
('Cheating death' is also a non-issue with respect to pausing; people can already Alt-F4 out of the game if they want to)
