It has now been roughly 1 year since I downloaded the demo for Blockland, bought the game and joined the forum's community. Also, this thread is my 1337th post. I think I'll celebrate by talking about a story of my time on Blockland and the forum.
I found Blockland while I was trying to evacuate from the monstrosity they call "Roblox". After giving the demo a try and buying the game, the first server I went to was a crouch race hosted by someone who's name I can't remember. Something related to ice. (It might have been Freeze, but I can't remember for certain) The host gave me a warm welcome into the Blockland community.
After that day, I was encouraged to play Blockland every free hour I had. I've been to Freebuilds, TDMs and my favourite at the time; deathruns. Of course, I was having the time of my life.
Still, something was missing. A forum account. After successfully creating an account, I was eager to get into it. However, it was nothing like the Roblox forum. In fact, looking back, I realized that the Roblox forum was absolutely screwing me up, because when I made my first posts on this forum, I was flamed. Looking back now, the Roblox forum just looked like stuffe, and the Blockland forum was full of more mature people. I didn't think about making a thread about being new to the forum, because people on the Roblox forum flame you for that, for some strange reason.
After leaving the forum for about a week, I decided to give it another go. I started giving serious thought over what to post, and some of the things I said at that time started getting more mature over time. Although I'm not the most popular guy on the forum today, I am respected by a few people.
So overall, I think this game and its community is great, full of people who have actually matured. And although I am going to miss the bedroom and terrain, I am looking forward to the future shadows/shaders update. I would just like to say thanks for this community for being a great bunch. (Although there are 1 or 2 asses)
tl;dr: This game and its community is the best I have ever joined.
