How Blockland has changed FOR you over time.
Joker Card:
stuff's changed a lot. I remember when you'd join a server in v8, you'd know at least one person in that server. Things were simpler. Less addons, so less bullstuff. Then around v12 things went to hell for me. stuff load of new members, stuffty addons starting to be made, good addons started to fade away. Then all the little friends that play now all make stuffty family RP's, knife TDMs and DM's. Each stufftier than the last. I eentually stopped playing due to lack on inspiration to do anything. the last actuall build I made was in v15. Re-app for iEvent. Didn't make it in. As of now, I haven't gone on Blockland in about a month. TDM's aren't fun anymore because they all use TT, which has no set bullet. stuff's too complicated. I liked it in the old days when you could shoot a gun and actually dodge the bullet. or when you'd blow up a building and the bricks didn't respawn half a minute later.
Edit: First server I ever joined was some Bedroom exploration server. After that was USSR fort wars. and don't even get me started on USSR. They were the highlight of fun to me back in the day. Their DM servers weeere the basis of simple weapons, with a stuffload of fun and architecture to admire all at the same time.

I Remember Spamming the chat saying "How did you make those doors".
This was in v8 so you couldnt just place one. It took my weeks before I could dl addons properly.

I started playing at the transition of v9 to v10. I never understood event scripting until v12 something. I showed me how good PC gaming can get. C:

Now, I find it's just the opposite, everyone is hypocritical, they have an imaginary line of how mean you can be without cause. I find it weird because now it's not OK to be a jerk, but the community is generally meaner.

Looking back on this quote, and looking more into the community, I find it actually hasn't changed. I just slowly slipped into a different part of the forums.
The add-ons board is still what it was, which is actually a lot different than the drama board.
I think it's the switching of sections you post in over time that create the illusion of the forums changing. I find that now I am starting to post in Drama less and less, and, magically, the forums seems to be a nicer place.
So basically, I'm saying that the forums really haven't changed at all.

My first play of blockland was vanilla
Then I had things to do like school, etc.
but then I heard of a "New" building game, I was intriuged, so I downloaded it.
it was blockland
I was overjoyed with the demo (My first build was a red castle with castle walls and windows) and I soon ran out of bricks. I hammered them down and started over
I soon bought it and was interested in all the other servers
Actually, the first server I joined was "Fooly cooly's airplane server"
I learned how to not build spam, how to make vehicles (Kaje's bi-plane was the rage back then :D) and how to spray-paint bricks
from then on I learned how to port forward, host servers and stuff
