XR-7:
I'm sure this isn't the first topic like this, but didn't want to bump something ancient. Post how you came to find Blockland, notable Blockland events you've witnessed/created, up to now. Here's mine:

I joined Blockland near the end of v10 (late 2008) when I was twelve. My dad had found it somewhere online and got the demo and said I could check it out. After twiddling around with it for about a month or two (Kitchen was my favorite map), I decided to split the cost of it with my brother. I didn't do anything but Single Player for probably the first month and decided to play online.
My first long-lived Blockland name was Oliver Hagamy (name of a Lego guy I used to have). My brother played under the same name, because he didn't care to change it. I did what many new players do, I hosted Family RPs and default TDMs (got pretty successful for those types; about 14 players; also was the last time I ever hosted servers). After playing several servers and noting all the strange bricks that I didn't have, I got RTB add-ons about three months into having Blockland.
On March 08, 2009, I got in big trouble because of something I did at my church (got grounded for a week). I only remember that date because the next day, a pastor I used to have was shot and killed in the middle of service (http://www.foxnews.com/story/2009/03/09/pastor-killed-2-hurt-in-illinois-church-shooting/). I didn't really make a big deal about playing Blockland because I forgot about it. About a month later, I wanted to play it and couldn't find it. My dad had uninstalled it and scrapped all the add-ons I had gotten. I didn't play BL for a long time afterwards.
A couple years passed, I moved two different places, life moved on. In 2011, I found some old Microsoft Word documents where I had written some old add-ons down. "Oh yeah, Blockland..." I looked into getting it back. Dad wasn't helpful, so I taught myself how to install everything all over again and got back into it. After resurrecting my old key, I saw "Oliver Hagamy" and thought, "Wow..." I renamed myself to my permanent name, XR_7. My brother got into BL again and called himself SCG '98 (Skig now).
By this time, I was pretty unsettled on how to behave on the Internet. I would bother people on Pecon7's Boss Battles and the RTB General Discussion most often. I decided to start a forum account on June 10, 2012 (got perma-banned on June 11).
Not long after being banned, my desktop computer crashed and quit working altogether. My dad got a Windows 7 HP laptop, which is what I use now. Five months later, I re-installed Blockland. I had shaped up better, and most people had forgotten what I used to do (only been mentioned once since then). Other than buying my own seperate account like two weeks ago (don't share with my brother now), nothing much has changed.
