Author Topic: "Building" Lessons  (Read 3568 times)


The fact that you think you need to teach people to build a certain way is questionable.
That's like the exact opposite of what he is trying to do.

i don't want to make videos of this because the way i'm teaching requires me to go 1 on 1 with the person.

You could separate videos by episodes. Each episode would be equal to one session of Blockland where you were teaching people, and each episode would be divided into clips. Each clip would be the segment where you were teaching someone.

I will come, I will learn anyway possible.

My building style is......not as good as I would like it.

It's a good idea, but it's very hard to pull off.
I have done something familiar once before, and I hope you succeed where I failed.

i'm not trying to teach people to build a certain way; i'm trying to get them to start their own style and not rip off of blueprints or pictures. please read the post next time

I said nothing about ripping off blue prints or pictures. Giving ideas and tips is good, but from your other posts/topics on the building subject, I have a bad feeling about your methods.

And for the record, I did read the entire OP.

i know you had not said anything about ripping off blueprints or pictures - that was an addition - but what I meant was, i'm not trying to force a style onto them; i'm trying to get them to create their own. my gallery topics were just my preferences, and i never tried to force it on to anyone

i feel that your posts are biased against me due to my rude comment about your ballroom.





i'm thinking of having lessons on saturday 4PM PDT

As I said before, based on your other posts I don't think that you can pull this off. My opinion has nothing to do with your comments on my builds. It has everything to do with how I see you as a potential teacher.

i actually agree with nobody

plus i think it's insanely stupid that you're not making videos, even if you are going 1 on 1 you could still record it

I seriously don't think you can record something like this. It needs finesse and an understandable dialog between the apprentice and the teacher. Videos are often rough, and you also can't ask a question to a video. This is why 1 on 1 is needed.

I don't think people understand what mrc is trying to accomplish with this. You can't really teach with videos.

I'm gonna nitpick that last sentence
you can teach via videos
you cannot teach building via videos.

If I had a recording program and an editing program,

I could do some building tips videos. Using less bricks, diffrent ways to build walls, mirrors/shiny floors and stuff like that.

Though most of this could be done using pictures and words.

The most effective and efficient way to teach people how to build is to run a community build server with moderate regulations that oversee the skill development of all players.

Another way to do this is by developing a gamemode that relies on building skill for prosperity. (an architect or civil engineering job in CityRPG.)

Building. yes

what bullstuff

i learnt how to build a (real) wooden deck off of a video of someone showing another person. If i can do that, people can learn off of him showing someone else how to "build"

How thick is your head?

He's not doing this to teach them "how to "build""
