Author Topic: KillerCop311's Guide on how to not be a handicap on the Blockland Forums  (Read 386 times)



Hello! New to the forums? Don't know anything about the community? Well this is the place for you!
Read this guide, and you're certain to not fail on here.

#1: Read the rules.
I'm dead serious. Read the rules before you even THINK about posting on here. Go read them right now if you haven't already.

#2: Don't use emotes.
Emotes are the most annoying and most hated thing on this forums. Spamming them will even get you banned. So don't do it.

#3: Think when you post.
Make sure you're informative. If you create a topic titled "Help with game", then you're like "it crashed! what do I do?", you're more than likely to not get help, and you're going to annoy others.

#4: Read the stickys in sections.
Certain sections have different rules and requirements. Read them or your topic may be locked, or you may be banned.

#5: Don't create ARGs.
Lots of people hate ARGs nowadays. The first one had over a 100 pages, and it was interesting, but now they're getting old.

#6: Drama.
Dramas are good to release steam, but they're also a place where people can hate your reasons and your topic. If you're informative, have good reasons and proof, you're more than likely to get support, and the person you're dramaing about may be banned from the server or the forum. However, if you diss someone for no reason or are not informative, and have no proof, people are not going to support you, and people may begin to argue. Dramas are a big territory, and admins even take part. Don't go too rough.

#7: Don't be a richard.
Flaming others for no reason and being more annoying on here will eventually make you become infamous on the forum and possibly in the game. In most cases you're more than likely going to get banned.

#8: Be wise when it comes to Forum Games.
Some forum games are actually really cool and fun, however when you're doing a repeated and old idea, people tend to not participate. Get in/on the X,  Think of X and other threads are now considered things people don't want to do anymore. Try to avoid making them.

#9: Have common sense.
If you aren't being smart or knowing what to do, you're probably not going to give or get much help. You'll eventually make others angry and become more annoying to others.

#10: READ THE RULES.
DID YOU NOT READ THE RULES YET? IF YOU HAVEN'T PLEASE READ THEM.


#11: Ignore any religous preaching you don't agree with and ignore racial slurs.

Also, just ignore any religous preaching you don't agree with and ignore racial slurs.
