Blockland needs some viral advertising.

Not really. I mean, we do not all want to be labeled just another ID do we? If the community gets large then that is how it would be like. In every server we join we see a familiar face. If the community were to get to large, There would always be some new person in a server than you wouldn't really want to get to know, cause you know you might not ever see them again.

I'm not sure how this is a problem. You could always add them on RTB.

There are some reasons to like a small community. And some reasons to want a larger one. For both of them, there isn't really a selfish reason on either side. People who want smaller communities Prefer the ability to know each other and see their friends on a different server upon joining. and we all know we do not want to be labeled as "just another ID".

This part right here makes it seem like a selfish reason itself. "We don't want to be seen differently" is a pretty bad reason to not want the game to be more successful.

on the large community thing, I say that if we have more people then maybe some of them will get off their asses and make add-ons we ask for instead of going "nah I'm lazy" when we ask for a proper lantern item or a brick that's commonplace when it comes to LEGO.

how Lego sets have been designed very lazy with new large odd bricks to replace the 10 classic that could have been used, or stickers... all to save money on production and ruin the Lego aesthetic.
Lego isn't about building things with bricks anymore, they have become a model to assemble. and every set has at least 1 unique forgeted up brick that simply exists to save production costs.

i say Legos pre-2000 are where its at.

I get that, but what the fudge does it refer to when it comes to marketing Blockland? Does it mean banishing add-ons? Do we build classic LEGO builds?

i  think he meant just to compare our game to oldschool lego. as lego alienated a lot of hardcore lovers with the new bullstuff.

Again, what does this actually mean? What do?

I think he means that Blockland could be marketed as a game where you use your imagination to build stuff. Unlike LEGO nowadays, which just has just become "too simple". In Blockland, you can build epic stuff with (almost) unlimited bricks. The building system is much more advanced than minecraft, with more customization due to different bricks.
I think we should target teens that kinda want to build epic stuff as seen on Brickshelf or Mocpages, but at the same time want a game where you can hang out with friends and fool around with a good DM from time to time.

If any of you decide to shoot up a school say Blockland made you do it.

I know that there is no excuse for some Lego behavior, particularly the Friends line, but I feel like there are a bunch of sets that have mostly if not all perfectly good pieces, and I get by fine. I still buy a kit every once in a while, and get a bunch as presents.

sounds good... I still don't get how one would market Blockland in such a way though. I can't remember any classic LEGO ads
I guess one could like... make like a thing and it says "build your own stuff for only $14.99! or something space butterfly
How would one not market it like classic LEGO? Show off too many add-ons?
