Is it bad that Blockland is an ongoing joke in my class because I try to get people to play it but when they look at blockland.us they say it looks like Minecraft and/or Roblox, and whenever I don't do my homework (this was once or twice in the whole school year) they say I was too busy playing Blacklund.

show them the forums

especially off topic and drama

They're clearly idiots that we don't need anymore of. They're laughing now, but once they try Blockland they'll never leave.

Exactly. Seems to be a trend of "This game is a knock-off of X" since Minecraft came out!

it's well-justified, i think, but just not well-informed in this case.

there are A LOT of minecraft clones. and the name "Blockland" is extremely suspect because it's rather generic and refers to blocks. obviously it's impossible for the accusation to be true for blockland, and a good bit ridiculous as well.

There's no justification for stupidity.

i don't think i've ever heard something more profound

There's no justification for stupidity.

you're right, but there's justification for suspicion. even if the suspicion is mislead, which there isn't justification for.

[.:FancyPants:.]

There's no justification for stupidity.

adding to what otto's saying
not sure i'd call it stupidity, but rather bandwagoning

aka (and most people know this term already) if you're hating just because your friend started hating, that's wrong.

[GhostStar]

[RarwMuffinz]

Could you show us some of the trading cards?

Will the steam release still use the documents>blockland system? I don't want to redownload any add-ons or move any saves/screenshots.

bandwagoning is inherently stupid

I think it'll go into the steam directory, judging on his multi-user post.

You won't have to redownload any add-ons if you just move them like you move your saves/screenshots. Which will take less time than it would to transfer your key to steam in the first place. Drag and drop isn't hard kids.

If this is even too hard, make a shortcut to the BL Steam Directory.

With Steam Keys, will users have to be online in Steam in order to be online in Blockland?  What kind of comparability will there be for communicating with users who do or do not run with steam opposite of you?
