Why on earth did people add a rule about event SP and posts some of us are posting as often as we can with as many characters as we can?

Yes and no.
While the questions could be looked as being subjective. They are not. While its true you cannot please everyone, being fun does not mean making everyone happy.For example.
If i hit you, I will fill good and you will feel bad. Being hit is not fun. But if you give the player ways to reduce the punishment from being hit or avoid it all together, then you give the player a way to have fun with the mechanic even though they are not the one actively using it.The best example of this that you guys do (not saying its perfect or flawed) is the critical system. It is always fun to get a crit but its never not fun to get one. It allows you to still hurt people who max out evasion(fun for you) but it does not make people who max out Acc overpowered (fun for others). Because its not guaranteed, it can be played around. And its effects are not so extreme as to make them overpowered.
Lets take a look at Mit.
It make the player feel good because they reduce the damage. The obvious counter to it is to do more damage but that only helps to a point. However the game gives you the bleed, poison, burn, ect ailments that bypass mit (fun for others). Those things are not overpowered because they cannot be applied all the time (like crits) and their damage does not scale like increasing damage does. This means that pure damage is stronger for unarmored opponents and Bleed, poisons, and burns are stronger for armored opponentsNow lets say you gave someone the ability to perma crit
getting perma crits would always apply bonus effects and drastically increase your damage output. Also you canot dodge crits. You could argue mit counters crits but bleeds counter mit and requires crit. There is no way to offset that perm advantage, and thus I would deem this trait not fun for others.
When you add an unique, you need to think like that. Will said skill make the game unplayable for other people or will it just enhance their gameplay? Will it make certain builds viable that under normal situations are not optimal? Can they be played around? Are they necessary to play the game?
... (I wish i was a game designer T-T)

I guess the question you should ask yourself when you put uniques in a game is
1. Why am i doing this.
2. Who should be getting this
3. Will this make the game more fun for the player if they had it.
4. Will the game be more fun for others if that player had it.
5. Can/Will this be abused by people in power.If you cannot answer those questions positively, then you should not have unique.

Back then, Block was technically a tank skill. Block worked like evasion but it did not stack with evasion. And thanks for reminding me about parry.
This was the best (non unique build in the game. Give or take a stat or two because i dont remember the exact limits)
2+bleed +1Stun on 1H.
3 thorns on Shield
3 mit on armor.Then have the following skills maxed out.
Battle healing
Heavy Armor (or light... as they were interchangeable at the time)
Block
ParryWith this set up alone. The most damage anyone can get off on you was 4... but it would have to be a 10 crit because of your 5 evasion. (at the time the max acc you could get without buffs was 3, 2 gear 1 skill)
max heavy armor counter max sword skill. 3 mit counter 3 dmg. Block counter 3 acc meaning only rolls of 8+ would hit. And dont forget if the enemy rolled 6-8, they took 3 damage which could not be reduced. (even if they missed). And you had like a 50-30% chance to heal up for 5 randomly every round.what made tris op was the fact that he could burn you on any roll above 5. The only way he could lose was if someone was higher level and that was because his skills were not maxed out yet.
There was no real way a dps could survive a fight against a tank.

Sorry guys, I know I haven't been around much lately, but the reason is... I'm getting married on Saturday! :D
Also, at work, I'm finishing up a MAJOR project and have been working 7 days a week.
So life has been busy, but I will return! Until then, I leave you in the capable hands of Tak and Mack!

Is there a site record for how many posts people have made in a row in one thread without finding any materials? I may try to challenge it. I'm at 12 posts right now I think.
