High level NPCs affecting the game world

So... how do you deal with the 'uberest' NPCs in your campaign? Limit NPC level, keep high level NPCs busy with 'broader' problems, transform high NPCs into gods or demigods (& ship them off to another plane in the process), what?

This was also a good reason for our group to get into a lower-magic campaign. I like powerful heroes in the campaign, but at the same time I want to limit their ability to influence it.

Note that without teleport, easy scrying or instant long-distance communication you have put some serious reigns on high levellers. They can't deal with threats they don't know about and can't get to threats without actually traversing the intervening space between them. Now you've just dealt with 90% of the problems HLers create in the game.

Cheers,
