Help / Server information feature not showing IDs?

« on: July 25, 2009, 11:17:42 PM »

For some reason the server information option refuses to show IDs. I checked in options but could not find the problem. It may just be a simple fix, but I might as well ask.

Here is a picture:



This happening to anyone else, or anyone knowhow to fix it?

Drama / Whaa, Dest isn't my friend no more!

« on: July 18, 2009, 11:57:40 PM »

Ever think it is funny how people seem to overreact to the smallest things? I do, and I just wanted to share this funny little chat. So here is the story:

Today I went onto Jaden's server. I've known Jaden for awhile so we were pretty good friends. When I said, "Ok, I have to go help NWB on the clan build". Jaden and everyone in the server starting saying "Wow dest has changed". I said how them constantly saying that annoyed me and I left.

I then got a PM from Jaden saying to come back to the server, so I decided to go back to see what was up. I got this:






I also saw they had a grave saying "RIP Dest". Of course this annoyed me more so I left again. I got a PM from Jaden saying Deception said he thought I acting like "The stuff of NWB". So I decided to go back and find out what that was about. I was greeted with:











I was then perma-banned.

They then proceded to try to follow me onto the NWB dedi and flame me there to dispite "Never wanting to see me again".

So apperantly these people hate me and NWB for no reason. I also think they though they could hurts my feelings by calling me names over the internet.

Well, I personally thought that there overreactions to nothing were hilarious. And if any of the people involoved in this chat are reading this.

Grow up. The internet is not a nice place.

Off Topic / Perforated Eardrum

« on: July 07, 2009, 04:26:58 PM »

Well about a week ago I started to notice my ear was hurting. Since it wasent constant I really payed no attention to it, until Sunday. The pain started to become constant and my ear started hurting without being touched.

Since it was Sunday all the doctors offices were closed. I attempted to wait it out until Monday but the pain became so unbearable that I just decided to go to the emergency center to get it checked.

I was diagnosed with a severe ear infection. The center checked it out, put some fluid in my ear to numb the pain, and gave me some antibiotics to fight the infection, and up until today eveything was fine.

Today I woke up not able to hear anything out of my right ear. At first I thought this was normal, maybe something that would go away by the afternoon. Nope, it also started to ooze this light brown liquid. So now that the normal doctors office was open, I decided to go there just to make sure it was normal. It turns out that overnight the pressure caused by the infection was so great on the eardrum, that it caused it to rupture. Luckily the eardrum heals itself and I should have my hearing in my right ear back within 2 weeks.

The morale of this story you ask? If you think you may have an ear infection, don't wait it out. Trust me.

tl;dr- I temporarily lost hearing in my right ear due to an ear infection.

Off Topic / Foot Injury

« on: June 22, 2009, 10:42:02 PM »

Well, me and a bunch of my friends were playing some soccer outside. At one point me and my neighbor kicked the ball full force at the exact same time only to have it pop up. So we really just kicked each other. After that the right half of my foot where I was kicked hurt like hell and swelled up a bit. It hurt pretty bad for about a week but I really didn't pay it any mind.

That was roughly 2 months ago. Recently i've noticed that at some points I can still feel that same horrible pain even though a huge amount of time has passed.

Think I should see someone about it?

Drama / CaptMorgan/ freedom: The weed smoking, IP tracking, moronic 8 year old

« on: June 22, 2009, 01:23:40 PM »

Well, if you have seen the arguement that started in "freedom"'s [UWR] topic, this chat is a continuation of that. If you havent, it basically all started when I pointed out that he violates his own clan rules and he started attacking me. His only attack towards me was cursing and claiming I have no life.

The topic:
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=73171.0

Notice how he askes to join his own clan on page 2. But anyway, I was on Nairb's server when CaptMorgan joined. Nairb stated the CaptMorgan was in fact, freedom. I decided to find out what his issue was with me, here is what occured:





















This topic was posted just because his reactions are so funny.

Drama / Frank Keegan- Arrogant prick extraordinaire

« on: May 21, 2009, 10:30:50 PM »

Well, here is the story. I was helping Reformist admin his TDM server. Ref went afk and then some guy named "Frank Keegan" joined. The first thing he says is: "You know what? Servers the host DMs that also have the mini-nuke, homing vector or old-school rifle are not worthy to have me in them".

Well, I will let the chat take it from here:

Frank Keegan connected
Frank Keegan: You know what? Servers the host DMs that also have the mini-nuke, homing vector or old-school rifle are not worthy to have me in them
Destroyer: Like we care about you?
Destroyer: Arrogant much?
Frank Keegan: You should,
Destroyer: Oh my, some arrogant prick who thinks he is better than everyone is saying the server is bad, we are so ashamed
Destroyer: Get out
Frank Keegan: No skill required to kill someone with the OSR, just point and click
Destroyer: Again, I dont care
Destroyer: You dont like it, host your own
Frank Keegan: The good players are killed by loving idiots because of this failure of a weapon
Destroyer: You dont like it, host your own
Frank Keegan: Just like the mini-nuke and homing vector...
Destroyer: Btw, you claimed this server "isnt worthy of you being here", yet your still here?
Frank Keegan: But I am not playing, am I?
Destroyer: This shows me you are here purley to start arguements
Frank Keegan: I dont make arguements...I make points...and people listen to and respect those points
Destroyer: Well tell you what, I dont, and by the looks of it, noone else does either
Frank Keegan: But you just dont want to listen to fact, you just want to cling to your fantasies
Destroyer: Acually I believe everyone has their own solitary opinion about DMs and the weapons used in them
Destroyer: You are trying to say the entire DM sucks because of a gun
Frank Keegan: This isnt an opinion, its a fact, and a rule everyone should follow
Frank Keegan: If I say something is wrong, it should be removed
Destroyer: Wow, you are seriously one of the most arrogant people I have met on this game
Frank Keegan: The arrogant *think* they are better than others... I am not arrogant
Frank Keegan: I am your superior
Destroyer: You just contradicted your own arguement
Destroyer: Nice one
Frank Keegan: I said, I AM, not I THINK I am
Destroyer: But you arent, thats the thing
Frank Keegan: You wont accept it, then I'll leave you to fester in your ignorance
Frank Keegan has left the game

So anyone ever heard of/seen this guy. He is obviously either a troll or very confused.

Name: Frank Keegan

Drama / dax468

« on: May 17, 2009, 05:08:26 PM »

This kid is hilarious. He believes Ephi banned him from every server and is threating to sue Badspot for it. Check out his hilarious arguement:

http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=68892.0

This of course tempted me to see this other posts, just as stupid:

WHo CARES ABOUT HIS NAME

if you stand on bricks they fall on floor and if you try to wand yourr own bricks them it says "yourname"does not trust you enough

THEN YOU SUCK EGGS!!!! 

WHAT??? THEY ARE ROCKETS!

Drama / "Rate the above user's _____"

« on: May 13, 2009, 05:42:05 PM »

This seriously needs to stop.

Whats with the increased amount of "rating" topics? At this moment their are currently 6 topics about rating the above user's whatever on just the first page, and some are about completely pointless stuff. Maybe 2 of them are ok at best, but the others are just loving stupid and made by idiots who want to feel special. Ex(s)-

http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=68448.0
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=68445.0

And if anything is worse than that, their is the wave of complete morons who try to make fun of these topics unknowing that they are adding to the very thing they set out to make fun of. Ex(s)-

http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=68501.0
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=68451.0
http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=68426.0

Finally, the people who make topics, to attempt to stop the topics...
Yes folks, it sounds just as stupid as it is. You try to tell them to stop directly in the off-topic section. Which again, just adds to the topic count. Ex-

http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=68502.0

Note: All of these topics were in the first 2 pages in off-topic.

In the first 4 pages I counted a total of 11 topics relating to "Rate the above user's ____". That is completely un-necessary. I personally think Badspot should start counting these topics as spam, because that is just what they are doing.

So I am finally posting an attempt to stop them where it acually belongs.

Seriously, their is enough of these topics/joke topics. Just stop...

Drama / "Dont post here if your not in ___!"/"Dont flame me!"

« on: May 09, 2009, 02:32:19 PM »

Seriously, I cant seem to figure out why people think that posting "DONT POST HERE UNLESS YOUR IN THIS CLAN" or "DONT FLAME ME!" will stop others from posting. Its not like you have any power over who posts on your topic.

By making a topic, anyone is entitled to post anything they want on that topic unless it violates the forum rules. In fact, posting something like that often makes people do the opposite of what you say just to piss you off.

So honestly, there is no point in saying it. Because if you do, people either are not going to listen, or flame you more.

Gallery / [NWB] Community Islands Build- [IMG HEAVY]

« on: May 02, 2009, 12:38:56 PM »

Well one day me and the other NWB leaders were discussing what to put on our new dedi. We decided to make an island build were anyone could come on and build an island with anything on it.

We have had this theme running for about 3 weeks now. We have had many people come in and make their own islands. In the end their were 35,409 bricks on the server.

Below are pictures of just some of the islands people came up with. Keep in mind, I cannot show pictures of all the islands, their would just be way to many.

The builds:





Lighthouse by Randomguy


"CV Islands" by Garth


"Shappeh's Getaway" by Shappeh


By Builder


Made by Shinokatana and Crypto717


Made by Harm


Made by Subzeroten

And for the lulz

Pictured: Destroyer, Harm, rAndOmCaPs, Randomguy, and Builder
        Boat by Nomible Wren



The builds will remain there until we think of another theme. So if you would like to go see any of the builds before we clear everything, you still can.

We hope you enjoyed the pictures and hope you can join us for our next themed community build!

Off Topic / 5 alarm fire, uncle's house destroyed, D:

« on: April 27, 2009, 04:20:00 PM »

Well, yesturday I walked out front of my house and was suprised to notice huge amounts of smoke coming from nearby. I decided to bike over their with my friends. Once I got there I noticed roads closed and firetrucks everywhere. The amount of smoke was amazing, it was able to fan out to about 3 blocks. But the main thing I noticed was the main fire was on my uncle's street.

The houses on that street were half houses, so the fire was easily able to spread. It managed to completely destroy the main house were the fire started and work its way to my uncles half house. The fire started when an outdoor grill's propane tank exploded. Think about it, 1 grill destroyed 5 homes.

My uncle is ok. But their were 7 firemen injured and the one house owner was injured. The fire overall did $750,000 in damage.

News story:

Drama / What happens when you destroy some idiots bricks

« on: April 25, 2009, 02:16:18 PM »

Well today I joined the NWB dedi to make sure it wasent going into chaos, I proceded with using the "/clearspambricks" command like I often do. Apperantly "anakin skywalker"'s bricks were affected by this. Here is what ensued after his bricks got cleared:

*Note: It says in the rules that the clearspambricks command is used often and that you are recommended to use a baseplate.*



Here he begins his rage on me:


Notice him saying he didnt even read the rules:


I love this part, him threating to "kick my ass":




And finally, him trying to play it all off when I mention im posting this on forums. His choice? The "angry german kid":


Hope you enjoyed as much as I did.
