It seems fairly unlikely that it is appropriate. Force fields are 
parameterized to reproduce a range of behaviour of a certain classes of 
chemicals. To understand what these are, you need to read the primary 
literature for that force field. There is no reason to suppose that a 
force field parameterized to reproduce (say) condensed-phase properties 
of peptides should be effective at modelling either infinite graphene, 
or gas-phase ammonia. It might work, and similar things might have been 
shown to work, but that's your job to prove and/or read about.

Only if you can demonstrate that it's doing a good job. For starters, 
does a simulation of gas-phase ammonia using these parameters reproduce 
density and diffusion constants? Is an infinite graphene lattice in 
vacuum stable? Otherwise any paper you wrote might be rejected out-of-hand.

I can't say.

Yep, that's right. The segfault was probably indirectly a consequence of 
integrating large opposing forces on these atoms. A small perturbation 
in a position might now result in a large change in net force, a large 
displacement on a frozen atom, and the whole thing goes up in 
silicaceous smoke.

Yes and no. Position restraints are good for giving things a gentle 
nudge to stay where you've put them. The textbook usage is that while 
equilibrating a starting structure into an ensemble, you don't want it 
to move much. Then once you're happy with your equilibrium ensemble, 
then you remove the restraints and see what really happens. However, if 
you're using them to smash something flat that really doesn't want to be 
flat, then you run the risk of integration problems as above. The fact 
of not wanting to be flat indicates that the model physics is severely 
broken, as Dallas has observed. You need to work out how and why it is 
broken, and once you fix the real problem, restraints or freezing might 
not prove to be needed.
