Back in 2009,
Maze24 showed me and some of his friends (It's Steve/Stevie and Me) blockland at his birthday party
I was in awe, watching him Drive a racing go-kart around in a river map with horrible water physics
Once I left his house at the end of the party
I immediately got blockland, didn't even try the demo. Our IDs are 3 apart (10100 to 10103)
I think he got blockland for his birthday, not sure where.
anyways;
I started playing, making spammy towers of windows and 12x6 plates before I stumbled upon
kmoulox, a long lost friend of mine.
He was french, and taught me how to install mods such as FFC, my first Add-on to download
Then, I took off downloading add-ons left and right on my Super slow Windows XP machine
Up until 2011, I kept using that machine, before it became so prone to bluescreens that I had to get a new PC, the one I dedi host off of now.
I remember my Maze24 and Stevie telling me "Get RTB, It's so easy", But I guess I wanted to be different and didn't get it for a month. Then, I backed up my add-ons and downloaded RTB, nervous of the changes it would inflict. Luckly, nothing bad happened and hosting got a bit easier. (I was using IGSO by FLCL because it was awesome). I still have my first add-on and my first copy of RTBV3.5 with the old IRC chat. Apparently the people on the #chat channel there know about blockland, but ignore people who mention it, or ban people with the name "Blockhead"
Now, here I am, creating mods and accepting requests!
This is probably my favorite game, and I'm glad that I learned about it early when I did.
These years have been great, and I've learned plenty about everything.
repost dis if u cry evertim
TL;DR - Maze24 showed me blockland at his birthday party and I got it when I went home
I have seen blockland ads on some websites, but I feel that if there was a commercial on one of those popular TV Channels (Disney), TONS of people would buy the game.
