So what are "the new ruleset agreed on by the community"?

So I randomly come on SRC to find my runs from over 2 years ago suddenly rejected with the reason:

"Does not live up to the new ruleset agreed on by the community."

What exactly is this new ruleset and decided by who? I didn't see much info in the forum here and there's no discord to my knowledge? Seems kinda shitty to not just make a separate category and just flat out reject my runs out of the blue which have been there for 2+ years.

EDIT: Okay so its to do with prebuilt houses and already unlocked stuff, still don't see where this was "agreed on by the community", I certainly didn't have any input on this despite having runs here from way before a lot of the current community even started running the game.

Again make a separate category for prebuilt houses/unlocks since you even have a Cheat% which I'd consider even less legit.

Hey Aaron,

First of all, I apologise that I didn't contact you beforehand. That is my mistake as mod for the game.

The ruleset has been updated for all the categories and was agreed upon by the community on Discord (https://discord.gg/aTws5BZ). The Discord has been a sticky post for more than two years at this point.

Since we don't want like 100 different categories, we decided to change the rules for the category instead of creating a new category. There has been an argument for creating a Legacy tab where runs that were previously approved but no longer fit into the category can go. This would be to not make it seem like someone cheated or something like that. It hasn't been decided yet but feel free to join the Discord and let everyone know what your opinion is on the matter so we can make a smart decision.

An argument was made for allowing prebuilt houses etc. in Freeplay as long as it its own category. No objections were made to that idea so that has now been implemented, the rulesets updated, and your runs re-approved for the correct categories.

Okay sorry I didn't see that link for Discord, for the record you can add that to the sidebar on the left if you Edit Game.

Anyway thanks for the update.
