I don't know if anybody else has thought about this yet, but uh, what will happen to the forums when v9 comes out? Let me show you.

You get on your computer, and check the blockland forums for some mods, since you haven't been on in a while, you realize that there's a new topic in the general discussion for blockland forum, it's titled, V9!!! You go to flame the person, thinking it's another topic about hurrying up the release date of v9, but when you enter the forum...There are eight-thousand new topics! Ranging from ZERO EM GEE!!! V9 IZ AWOOT!!!!!!! To questions about how to use the wrench events system. People, this is a warning.

Badspot would delete or move a considerable amount of them, I bet, if that really did happen.

Didn't happen when Retail itself was released, won't happen now. People will be too busy playing.

There was just one simple thread by Badspot himself linking to the dl for Retail's release, everyone just shouted out random stuff in the topic.

The main Blockland page states when there is an update out. You have to be pretty damn ignorant/stupid to miss it.

Switch-Blade · June 23, 2008, 03:25:50 PM

So I guess no one got the point of the topic, oh well.

Dilt · June 23, 2008, 04:55:12 PM

Badspot would probably delete them. They'd be basically spam in this case.

the real question is what happens to the Add-ons, Maps and Saves when RTB for v9 comes out??
what will happen to my site and blockland.org??

will the number of forum topics decrease as the need to visit to check for add-on or map updates / releases decreases.

the RTB system would seem to be helping and hurting the community from this outlook.

no one needs to be told anywhere. don't the damn game update itself?

we may never even know :o
hell we might already be into v10 as we speak.

General Omega · June 23, 2008, 06:27:02 PM

I would still want a fresh download so the game will not be glitchy.

It checks for updates when you start the game, it automatically downloads them but you still have to manually click the install button.
