Different stuff has been suggested for competitive ET many times. There were always flamewars about major changes, sometimes admins introduced things people were against and it turned out to be good, sometimes much wanted changes weren't done. Mostly things went well and after some whining at first people got used to it and the world went on.
But there are still many people who wish for certain things, such as the pro mode and similar stuff. These changes probably won't get introduced, because there is also a big number of players who are against it, so I came up with a weird idea.
What if a new set of rules with major changes would be introduced, but wouldn't be obligatory for all players. Kinda like fair-play in football. You can follow it if you can and it is sometimes rewarding, but nobody forces you to do so.
For example, some kind of a pro mode, pro league has been mentioned many times. We could make a set of rules for this mode (like no arty, no mines, rtcw rof, etc), make a match config and then inform other clans we are interested in pro mode by puting info in our clan details on CB. When 2 such clans would challenge one another, a pr0 config would be used, but otherwise clans would follow the basic set of rules if facing a clan that doesn't support pro mode.
Or another suggestion - some people hate mortar, lets put in in our clan description and look for other clans who do the same and then play matches against them. If mortar doesn't get permanently banned, at least you can play half of your matches without it agains people with the same opinion.
And so on and so on, the options are limitless, but i don't want to take it too far, right now i just want to know what you think about the big picture.
