IMO you shouldn't disallow this Admin, don't give in to them. I am no fan of unfair pvp but if you put shackles on every aspect of the game you will start losing players. The whole 'outside buffing' is different from player to player, if you run into someone that thinks it's fine just get someone to help you out yourself. Or even better, get 5 people to help you and just cut him the hell down. They want to play like that? Overpower them, get clerics, bards, warriors, warlocks. It's not hard, just make a few friends.
