Yo sticky that thing already

this needs a sticky

The ruleset needs to be updated

And what exactly would you have changed in that ruleset?

If you're talking something like "bonewall should be legal", there is no reason to re-write a ruleset over it.
If you and your crew play with a slight deviation of this ruleset, that falls in to the category of "special ruling" at the bottom of this ruleset.

I have no problems helping re-write a ruleset if enough of the veteran community comes in here and gives feedback on it, just the same as they did when we wrote this ruleset to begin with.
This ruleset is a balance between east/west/eu ruling and was meant to be something that the super diminished pvp community could come together and agree upon.
It was to help migrate players to east so that we had a pvp community again, rather than have players stay on different servers due to preference of differnet pvp ruling.

I do want to point out that balancing a ruleset for any game works best when the community has high population and many players are trying hard competitively at the absolute peek of the community's understanding of the game.
This ruleset was written during that era, right before DII took the nail in the coffin. So before many preference ideas are thrown out for rule balance, consider the point given.

I have however been out of the game for quite some time now and I have no idea what's going on with the direction of preference ruling in current pvp ladders "didn't realize any of this was still active".
So if any real hard ruling has changed and become stable from ladder to ladder to ladder "showing that people all agree on this", let me know.
Otherwise, I don't think it's a good idea to update this list with some deviant rule that one ladder is currently using.

If anything, I'd like to see an addition of teampk ruling added in here.
It was beginning to be a thing, right before I lost my ability to re-install DII.
I have no idea where the preference ruling landed concerning this.

With respect TSB its not what I want.
Its the ruleset that's presently being used by the current all class ladder, most of the others before that and in most of the duel games these days

Was based on Legen's ruleset

These rulesets are virtually the exact same thing. They are just written differently.

There are only two differences that I see in the list that you posted:
* Amazons may use SM
* Decrep is allowed vs. all characters, not just teleporting characters.
This is one of those preference things that slides back & forth as the years go on. Always has, always will.

Is there something I'm missing here? Please point it out if so.
Otherwise I don't see a reason to replace apples with more apples.

bump. TSBoyer needs his list stickied.
