There does seem to be a problem with the Blockland master/auth servers at the moment - I don't know what's up but it's taking ages to reply to the auth requests from the RTB server. That'll explain why things seem to be really slow at the moment.
Any chance if this being included?

Yep I'll definitely consider that - it shouldn't be a tough thing to add.
To bring back one of my suggestions from the aforementioned thread - Could have a separate tab in the brick selector just for props. Not sure how the categories or sorting would work, maybe by author or something.
Would be nice if people could store props locally, too, maybe also accessed through the brick selector. Might be useful for people who make something they can easily place but don't want to upload, kinda how you'd use Duplicator saving. Could be done through private prop uploads, but the reason I bring this up is because I'm worried RTB might experience some unexpected downtime or maintenance and suddenly everybody's building efficiency drops by half. Some risks present themselves in allowing people to upload directly from client to server but I doubt it could be much worse than it already is, especially with some configuration options made available to the host.
I'll definitely give it some thought. I can see the value behind being able to save and load your own props without having to upload them but it does complicate the loading process a lot too.
about RTB buffet, will players need administrative status to be able to load those builds into the server, or will anyone be able to?
Ideally anyone would be able to load them into the server but that obviously makes spam and abuse an issue. There would be some control for server owners to make it harder for people to abuse or to disable it entirely I think.
