Is Blockland the only game that uses the "ID" system?

[BlockoBlocko]

I always wonder if Blockland is the only game that uses the ID feature.

[Ad Bot]

[Doughboy]

probably not.

[otto-san]

definitely not, but idk if it's as common for the ID to be as 'promoted' as it is with BL

I've not played every game ever made so I can't be 100% sure.

But no, Certainly not. I'd assume every game sets a member to a number for easier sorting.

Doesn't Roblox do this?

When you view someones profile at the end of the url it says ID=(numbers)

but in blockland IDs are more of a big deal
idk that doesn't sound right but i dunno how else to word it

like, a lot of games have some sort of number ID assigned to players but it's usually just a long string of numbers and letters that don't really matter but in blockland you can see everyone's IDs and they're used in events sometimes and they're just more significant i guess?

does blockland and its community just ever seem way different then like every other online game to you guys or is it just me
i mean i dont play online games much and have never really used any other forums but still

[Buu]

well, theres facepunch....

Any sort of online game is going to have a database with a table of characters/players/accounts, the table's primary key could be considered an ID.
It's just that I've never seen another game with as much of a front-end emphasis on them

I am pretty sure that 99.9% "IDs" are randomly generated identification keys and there's no constant increment like Blockland's.
The only other game that I know that uses IDs based on register increment is Torn City.

I don't know, but sure feels different.

If internet was earth, Blockland Forums is like an uncharted island.

this as well

i don't know of any other game that uses IDs that aren't random long strings of numbers and letters and also has IDs that are easily visible and important/significant
