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.
--- Quote from: Dr.shoe... on March 25, 2012, 09:14:16 AM ---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.

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?
Bisjac:
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?
