NickJS Wrote:The following report has been passed on to the appropriate team. Please keep in mind that there is no guarantee that a future patch will be released and also if one is released, none of these issues are guaranteed to be addressed. We are also well aware many of you would like a Ladder Reset therefore it was not included in the report. If one is announced, it will be posted on our websites and most likely in this forum.

GodandRock Wrote:This patch isn't going to happen. I'm pretty sure the next patch will take quite a long time to come, observing that Blizzard launches a yearly patch for D2. Most of those things are faaaar-out. Blizzard isn't going to work on so much new things for D2, they are already pretty busy with other stuff. So don't expect much of that stuff to happen...
