Official rulings
- Note that the first ability can affect any kind of creature, but the second ability can affect only Slivers. Both abilities can affect players. (2007-02-01)
- Abilities that Slivers grant, as well as power/toughness boosts, are cumulative. However, for some abilities, like flying, having more than one instance of the ability doesn't provide any additional benefit. (2013-07-01)
- If the creature type of a Sliver changes so it's no longer a Sliver, it will no longer be affected by its own ability. Its ability will continue to affect other Sliver creatures. (2013-07-01)
