My original account is 19569. I proceeded to get another account for my other computer, which was 22702. I'm pretty sure that I got better known and liked as 22702, along with doing cooler stuff. |

Especially Barn's point is vital. Because, then you can for example become anonymous by just changing your name. Also, how would banning work? |

I think OP meant in a more 'judgement' fashion than the practical gameplay reasons. I do often join servers and randomly screenshot a whole bunch of BL_ID's before I spawn. And whenever soemone is an idiot, I screenie his BLID. But lessee... --- Quote from: Sheath on April 05, 2012, 03:41:40 AM ---Demo mode won't really teach you how to build with its brick limit, or teach you how to fight against real players. Nor to understand community / server etiquette. The ID argument is not an insult. If I see a 34k preaching to me about how Blockland is even though I've been playing for several years, I will bring their ID up. But there is a limit, I wouldn't say anything it if was a 15 - 20k because they would have been here for a year or two, too. It has a legitimate usage, and it also has an illegitimate usage (for petty insults or deflection). --- End quote --- Hangon now, I did learn to build well within the demo's brick limit. I used lots of addon brickpacks back then to ensure that I got the best build for my limited brick usage. And I have a theory on how to bypass the brick limit in the demo... I will laugh so hard if it winds up working. Demos did teach me how to fight against real players, because I would do almost RP-like 'imaginary games' with myself and try to predict what the other would do in any particular situation and how I would counteract that. I also learned how to shoot a target while I am moving, while the target is moving (through bot events), and both. It was pretty darn useful. I also learned events, often to make small event-rigged deathtrap builds. And randomly richard around. Randomly richarding around wound up teaching me a whole lot about the game. And why no-chatting matters: You're either antisocial, or havent' figured out that you hit the T key to chat. Except in fast paced action servers, in which case it's completely understandable to avoid typekilled. |
