I have a point.
Seriously, so many people have claimed to make "computers" when really they just make boxes which can fire a relay into a brick which does most of the work.

Also, there is nothing wrong with relays. Consider them electrical signals.

Hes right. Im starting my server now.

When some guy makes a computer, nobody will use it for more than a few seconds and many people will for some reason expect impossibly high standards (like high-end computer software functionality which events can't provide by default). Sadly that is the small minded approach people take to computer builds. This isn't a matter of opinion, its just the way it is.

Wh said that Iuse default events? I created an entire mod allowing my PCs to be able to have media, internet (WIP), ACCOUNTS, logon, logoff, shutdowns, restarts, start menu, realistic start ups, and more to come in V3.

This isn't a matter of opinion, its just the way it is.

Go forget yourself!

Restarts shutdowns and starts are not features. And if a feature is wip, that means you didn't actually make it.

By Internet (WIP), I meant that i made ONE website.

When Bones4 builds the Titanic, everyone wants to see it.

I don't build things so people can enjoy it, I build things to build things. People enjoying it is just a bonus.

What's your problem? Do you have to put down anything that isn't as good as something that you could make?

Lets review our options:

1) Play on fake computer in Blockland to do stuff
2) Use your real computer to do stuff

HMMM

You are a prime example of how so many people take computer builds too literally as if they are made to replace your computer. That is like saying "build a house in Blockland or live in one".

Yeah, you're completely right. Like, why would I build a stupid piano in blockland? It's not going to replace my real piano.

But really, wasn't it you that made that horrible hotel build, and then made a video saying you would "spend your spare time in it."?

What you're saying seems abit hypocritical considering you've poured your little heart into building your life and identity on blockland.

Edit: Found the hotel thing http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=134302.0
You deleted the video! What's this, a new persona you're trying out? IcyGamma mark 2? lol

Builds always feel so meaningless. You make 'em and you dump 'em in your saves. So I am building a tower, which will become my "headquarters". I intend to make this build, and sustain it for months if not years. I will host shows and events inside it, build contraptions inside it in my lab, hang out in it, and do all sorts. Over time, it will change, and grow, and be upgraded. But the aim is that, in a few years, it will have an entire history and will be more than just a build.
Why such the sudden change?

Someone mentioned starting a band in Blockland so I decided to create a playable piano since the best we had before was these weird small keyboards that use default sounds. My build served a practical use. You probably don't play a piano, but just so you know that build actually has proper tones and a playable amount of keys and functions with sustain which is quite something.

Er not sure where you are going with this. Please refer to my previous post. No hypocrisy here. ^_^

All I said there was that "shutdown" isn't a special feature. That and "startup" are technically any part of any computer, and that means "restart" is also.
They're not features.

Also, why does the list say you've made 'routers' but not 'internet'? Wouldn't serve only as a prerequsite for the other?

The post is pretty straight forward, I'm saying that you put a huge amount of time and effort building up your identity and ego here.

And I do have a proper piano ^-^
