witch:
A downloadable pdf flowchart would be cool.

Orikes:
I would LOVE to see something like this.

There are quite a few technically ignorant 'kids' on another board I follow, and I can't tell you how many times I've repeated some of these things. I also can't repeat how many times someone has come back and said, "I did <insert really stupid, game killing thing here> and I haven't had any problems. You must be wrong."

Then a week or two later, they're whining because their neighborhood is acting stupid. *sigh*

J. M. Pescado:
If they say "they did it and see no problems", post Camouflage Kitten above.

witch:
I could make a cool Visio flow-chart if someone sends me the text, once it gets decided upon.

I did these things 2 1/2 years ago.  I'm still waiting for the sky to start falling.  Of course, I did them in moderation, and avoided other potentially stupid stuff, but the test neighborhood where I did them ended up being the neighborhood I played the most.

If Maxis is too fucking stupid not awesome enough to write their damn code so it doesn't have potential to break a neighborhood, there certainly are some Awesome programmers out there who could automate the process of following the Maxis code around with a pooper scooper to clean up the shit.  It would have to be someone who knows the hows and whys a neighborhood might break when certain actions are performed.  Someone intimately familiar with the internal workings of the game data.
