What, you mean something like this over at the D2\LoD side of things?

I use to believe that bliz as a videogame company was very weak in one regard. Whenever they see a local problem, they smash it down with a global solution.

I also believe that 'bliz logic' is a slight form of insanity that is the unfortunate but unnegotiable price for their great strengths like extremely polished execution and little to no game crashing bugs. (Why else would they ignore some fairly major gameplay bugs, yet tweak and 'fix' others that did not really need it. 'Fend' in D2\LoD is still wonky, yet a fix was made for the Anya personalization quest reward?!)

I still believe in the second, but maybe not so much in the first. Looking at some of the replies on that link, I really wonder if maybe some of those players deserve what they get, whenever a bliz patch that's heavy on the nerf mallet and light on the logic hits them. The problem is, -I- can also get hit with whatever they deserve.

And just to make sure I'm reading you right. What exactly do you mean by 'proper' fixes? Most of the gameplay bugs you mentioned already has been mentioned by players a while back. Some even iirc, gave detailed account on how they managed to fix it. It would be great if bliz fixed them with no side effects, but I'm not optimistic given their track record. Other things however, sounds more like wishing bliz would enforce a personal idea of how the game should be played.

Wishing bliz would take a more active stance on cheating is one thing. (Though considering the age and structure of this game, and the fact that their focus is on whatever their current project is, they'd probably be happier if no one bothers them about D1.) But to me there's nothing illegitimate or cheating about say, twinking. Or for that matter, being a jerk of a player, or something like Player Killing.

I'm not talking about twinking from a cheated source, or griefing to the point of criminal harassment. I'm talking about your average jerk like human behaviour that falls under benign a-holism. Which is probably most of us on any given day (well maybe just me), but there's no rules that says you have to have manners or decency to be a legitimate and non cheating player.

So while I wish this project great luck and success, I think the more important criteria is the original poster wish to find players with a mature mind set, or at least of similar mindsets along with no cheating. That I think, will probably foster longevity more so than just an imo an overly strict set of rules over legit play.
