What's Your Stance on the "Jetway"?
(1/4) > >>
Man 2:
In Blockland, there are four convenient ways to get from one story to another:

* Stairways
* Ladders
* Elevators
* TeleportersThis third option, the elevator, has long been a frustrating and tedious thing to build and event (Teleporters as well, but that's for another time). Some people build hollow shafts with doorways at the different floors, for players to access via jetting. Some would argue that it's naught but an excuse not to event, but then again, some might argue that protesting the use of jetways because it's not "realistic" would be like saying that stairs aren't appropriate because humans are not supposed to use their feet. If someone were to create a realistic, human environment and disable jets, that would be a good cause to not use jetways and instead create a different way to travel from floor to floor.

I do not object to the use of a jetway, because blockheads are not humans, they are LEGO minifigures with a lawsuit-avoiding design and have the ability to spout fire from the soles of their feet in order to fly, and should use this ability in everyday life.

I don't know, perhaps you think I'm some sort of crazy person for bringing this topic up. What do you think?
Night Fox:
It doesn't really matter to me, but I do prefer to walk up a set of stairs.

Adopt non-conformity, it will make you less of a "crazy person"
GenaralSkar:
Reason I hate jetways are because they are annoying. Most people that build them have a space that you can barely fit in and a small space to land on making it very hard to actually go to different floors.
Nymethus:
Or you could just remove the walls and it would be even easier! After all, it doesn't have to be realistic, right? I mean, they're just blocks! Hurr durr!
