The "Make friends not enemies, and you will always have eyes in the back of your head" file has been moved from "Game Code" to it's proper location "Game Quotes."
The "PPRB" (Project Proposal Review Board) has rejected proposal "PPRB" (Prevent Parry, Riposte, Block) -- while the official response cites "Fine print that would promote unrealistic combat mechanics" as the primary reason, insiders allege that "Protecting the integrity of the PPRB acronym from known imposters" was also a factor in their decision.
- Recieved a Cease and Desist Order from Lucas Films / Disney. Player Characters and NPC's may no longer "Use the force" to anticipate attacks made from behind. As a result characters are no longer able to Parry, Riposte or Block these attacks.
or
- Prevented Parry, Riposte, and Block from activating when the attacker is behind you. Contrary to what Brad might say, you were never supposed to be able to block attacks with your butt.
or
- The Gods have smited the abilities of those below by banning the ability of all their creations to Parry, Riposte or Block attacks from behind. Creatures with no forward face are in an uproar over this move citing their now inability to Parry, Riposte or Block attacks and have condemned the move as elitest and discriminatory. Snakes are said to be offering support and solidarity for these creatures after a previous decision by the Gods prevented them from kicking their opponents due to lack of legs.
- Made a fix to prevent Parry, Riposte, and Block from activating when the attacker is behind you. Adventurers are advised to freshen up on the 5 D's: Dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge.

- Prevent Parry, Riposte, and Block from activating when the attacker is behind you. People will now get butthurt when things don't go their way. ~Aradune, 2017
(Although I think only VIPs will fully appreciate that lol)

But isn't it the opposite in this case? People will now get butthurt when things go their way?

Lol I guess it just depends on how you interpret which way is "their way" :P
Fixed a bug allowing parry, riposte and block from behind; not everyone has the reach of Goro.
Finally fixed a known issue allowing parry, riposte and block to be used from behind, beacuse honestly, no one likes doing vector algebra.
[Edit] added a second one
Please refamiliarize yourself with the tenets of RexKwonDo - Parry, riposte and block no long work from behind.

Porcupine defense systems deactivated - Parry, riposte and block no longer work from behind.

We all get it in the end... parry, riposte and block no longer work from behind.
"Mothers across Terminus have decided to stop passing on the 'eyes in the back of the head' ability to their children. When asked what brought on this change one mother answered 'It is easier to make your children behave when they can't see you standing right behind them.'" - Prevent Parry, Riposte, and Block from activating when the attacker is behind you.
Weapons no longer phase out when they are being used when attacking from behind. This allowed players the ability to raise their Parry, Riposte and Blocking skills all at the same time. Now those skills and weapons are working as intended especially when you don't see or know they are behind you.
Research has found that rogues have the shortest swords of all. After being petitioned by the Black Rose Union and from threats of 'how about you bend over and still tell us it's short' it was determined that in the interest of diversity that people of all sword sizes should be considered equal. Therefore parry, riposte and block will not activate when the attacker is behind you.
And in an unrelated patch note:
Series A funding achieved; the marble walls and floors at the Reckless Magician's tower are now 0.001% paid for.
