In golf, the best rule is the simplest: play it as it lies.

(Aside: This weekend's USGA women's open illustrated how silly drop rulings have become. Hit the ball straight and you don't have these problems, Anika dear, I was sorry your bunker shot also sucked, since I was hoping you'd win.)

So with Diablo II: play it as you find it.

Maphack is not "as you find it." Now, I will agree with you that Lam Essen's tomb should probably be in one of the six temples, chosen at random. (Though some will argue that it adds only tedium.) Maps found as scrolls? Good idea, so many of the scroll drops are just ignored, but guess what: nice idea, but it aint there. Send suggestions to Blizzard's suggestion forum, and remember that, in the immortal word of Max Schaeffer, know better than we what makes a good game. (I am giggling as I write this.)

Play it as it lies, Blizzard's tendency to act on player suggestions is low, not high, though they do act sometimes: note that the star shaped radius bug did indeed get fixed, as did the Bow Bug.
