Good: Had hours worth of completely pointless entertainment, found out about a ton of games through the forums, learnt of Steam, got a number that now suffixes most usernames I own in a lot of stuff (6743), $20 became my final investment into LEGO, gained patience and creativity through building (yes, patience. A few years ago I couldn't concentrate on anything).

Bad: Spent so much time on this that I could've affected my school grades (It erm...didn't. I hit top grades in most exams), distracted me from life (again, probably not a bad thing).

So yeah, nothing bad :)

Also:

- Made friends
- Lost friends
- Made enemies
- Kept enemies
- Had a massive argument with Heed (such fun :P)
- Practised typing (the forums require it)
- Forced my dad to purchase better internets after I over-used it
- Wasted time
- Wasted more time
- Filled up about 1/8 of my old computer with save files and screenshots
- Lol'd

'Nuff said.

this game changed my life for worse-- it got me to teach myself how to script and now I'm stuck with the responsibility of that weapon pack

but in all seriousness it's just a game to me

It changed my life too.

From the type of music I listen to, to how I manage things, and meeting new people across the country, or yet ANOTHER country.

Thanks Badspot.

I'm leaving posts are bannable

But really now, he does deserve many thanks, and probably some apologies, too.

I wouldn't know anything about the internet without this community, and without this game my life would have gone to a completely other direction.
I'm not sure if it's good or bad.

Still, thank you, Badspot, for creating this beautiful game and community that we call Blockland.
