You're so stupid lol.

This is hardly a look into the game, let alone a theory. This is just a disguised rant about how popular, fun servers get more players than others. Hint: they may actually be some fun to play on. Seriously, if you want to get players make your server have some sort of replay value.

Why should off-topic be forbidden? That's handicapped. It's there because people may not want to discuss Blockland 24/7, per general discussion. You're not making a groundbreaking post by listing out problems that others have many times before you, you pretentious forget.

Also, that logo leads me to believe that you're twelve.

I hate it when people call Help dead. Help is beautifully uncrowded. I can monitor the Help board once a day and never have an unread topic go to the second page. Most help topics can be solved by just one competent reply. The Help topics that require more work are usually unmolested by the majority and are just conversations between the people who know what they are doing and the people who need help. Basically, the reason Help seems to be dead is because it is effectively and relatively idiot-free.

Ya know what? I'll be perfectly honest, your right. You pissed off me and countless others beyond belief but there is some truth to what your saying. The forums are hell for the most part but that's not what I'm pissed about. But i want to start off by saying that you didn't "bash" blockland, you "bashed" it's community which is a BAAAD idea. I've done the WIP test many times and you know what? same thing happened. People joined asking where the build was. But ya know what else? I asked them if they know what WIP means. They all, every single one, said no. Accept for a couple who came saying they wanted to help. When i told them ("WIP means Work In Progress, It's not done yet and not ready to be played") almost all of them left accept for a few who stayed and freebuilt. You have to keep in mind that a lot of the community lately, not all but a lot, are kids and they've just never heard some text whatchamacallits before like WIP. Now moving on to the "top" servers. Again, right, most of the time its the servers with the most people that, in turn, get the most people. First of all you can't just go and say that that's what everyone does because i don't do that at all. I go to the servers with one or two people in them because i feel bad for them because they have noone to play blockland with on there servers, and there almost always happy i came to keep them company. Second of all, building on what i said before, of course the more populated servers get more people! Because people don't want to be alone! They want to be with other people, and where in blockland is better to do that than in a popular server! It's basic human nature to want to be with other people, because back in the caveman days, say someones taking on a wolf. Alone, there screwed, but with alot of people, they'll beat that wolf with ease. That instinct to stay around other people remained in our DNA and we still feel that we have to be around other people today, not everyone, but most people. Not to mencion we also have an instinct to conform, do what everyone is doing so we don't feel like outcasts, so we feel like we fit in and are accepted, because i don't care who you are, deep down inside you do want to feel accepted and loved. And if your going to insult people for that, go to hell. But at the same time, like i said, there is truth to what you said, despite that instinct to be around others, conform, and feel accepted and loved, all of us, as a community, need to go to that server with noone in it or just one or two or a few people in it. Make them feel important, make them feel loved.

Give it a try, you might like it.
