I've been playing it for years but he is adamant on deleting it.What do?
Tell him he's a loving moron.
I've seen a topic about this a while ago, tell him that Blockland is not a virus, it is a game played by thousands of people. Also tell him that addons are .zip files, meaning that if they do have a virus, it would be trapped in the file. So Blockland being a virus is a laughable accusation.
I don't know how to say this without being rude, so I'm just going to be rude. Your dad shovels coal for a living and I am a goddamn professional computer programmer. I know more about this subject than your dad. Port forwarding, if done correctly, is completely safe.
Tell him to run a virus scan to prove that it isn't a virus, then we'll see how much he knows about computers.
