im confused about blockland now. I see posts called posts your picture and it shows grown men and women. Then I see a thread about legos
and i can t tell if you arent still playing with them?
Don't know if this is just baiting (but w/e if it is), but it's fine for adults (or older teenagers) to still play with Lego. And it's hardly surprising. We are players of Blockland. Pretty much our one shared interest is that we all seem to like Lego style bricks. It's not weird at all for the older members to still have a passion for playing with Lego. It's hardly as if we're all discussing Lego Duplo.

Heck, it's probably more likely for older members to play with Lego just because they're likelier to have jobs and money to afford it.
Damn, Lego is expensive today.

Do you have a problem?

I've invested thousands of dollars into my LEGO collection, and I use it mostly to help with games design classes (it's much easier to prototype a board game than code one up, and using LEGO to design the world, characters, objects etc is really easy). I find that also building the LEGO sets takes the edge off. I don't have to be massively creative, I can just relax with some calming music and watch somebody else's awesome invention being built up from the ground. Sometimes I'll do stop motions or arrange my sets to make interesting collages.

People have weird interests. I personally think LEGO is less-weird and a lot more healthy than many other hobbies...

What are grown men and women supposed to do to kill time?

Have love?

Diseases, accusations, and potentially unwanted children.

Watch movies?

Unless you really like it, you won't want to watch the same movie twice.

Collect stamps?

Why collect stamps when you can collect LEGO?

IIRC one of the dragon heads has a hole in it that's 2 studs deep and you can lose a 2 stud axle in it


if you can put it together without flexing any pieces, then you can take it apart.  Some of those LDD models from earlier couldn't even be assembled by hand.

holy stuff thats what those are? i thought they were just weird little ramps so i'd stick them on the clusterforget ships i used to throw together
I could've used those u sik forget



These obviously are two little squares stuck together. you can take them apart y'know. (I've done it ONE TIME, then failed the rest)
