this isnt possible to do in blockland
I know, i forgot you couldn't edit drama posts, but i think that if you are gonna do something like that, it needs to be way more structured.

I think what fuels the same servers being always up is the filter by playercount button, I would bet if that was removed servers would start seeing alot more attention from people actually looking.

it would also make it impossible for servers to gain more players, such as a server like heedicalking's

im pretty sure freebuild is the most creative :/

You motivated me to start learning how to script and stop being a lazybones

there was SOME creativity with maps but now that there isn't any it's kinda up to your imagination and building skill

Oh god not this again,
Alright let me just say this *I haven't read through the topic fully but anyways here goes*
Creativity doesn't mean a good server, it just means how you look at it, a server can be utter stuff but have good effort put into it, if you think just because these servers are hosted extensively means its any less creative, just look at some of the RP's MERP'S etc, hosted by people, they spend quite a bit of time to make the maps for these things,
Just today i was hosting my RP map WIP and my friend "Cookies and cream" linked this to me while saying "We should stop hosting RP's all together" i am gonna spend a quite a bit of time working on this map just to make it top notch for the community to enjoy, please next time you talk about creativity think about creativity as a whole and not as a 1 sided thing,
Thank you and have a good day.

1+ to the stupid thread pile i guess. also
i think the same thing is happening to steam now

Ley me tell you it's not creativity that had left minds. It's that's there was no spark to start the creativity. Nobody is going to build on that same long slate that they've been doing for the past 3 years. It's large and empty and they don't feel encouraged. Maps really did create a fun environment that people felt that spark of creativity. Now I definitely not saying maps being lost gives us no hope and here's why. (insert buzzfeed logo here)


For the past 3 days I've been hosting a free build based around a city floating in mid air. I've been seeing people old and new come on to build. I knew that if I created a great environment for people to collaborate that they would really enjoy building and I'll say that a lot of people have. My server spiked to the top of the list on all 3 of those days in the busiest part of the day. There was 40 people on my server at one point. That's not very common for blockland at all. It got a bit hectic but I managed. I had friends who helped me keep it under control.

It also seems like that people also make rip off of gmod and tf2 gamemodes and they suck compared to the original. Sadly I try to make a new type of game and after weeks of finishing and hosting it dedicated. I only get like 3 ppl every hour. That's why I don't host anymore.

I agree with everything but dogfights. There generally fun minigames that pop up rarely, and everyone does them different. one person even EDITED a mod of a stuntplane, and added guns to it.

ya talking stuff
how do mini empires even work they seem to be the equivalent of children on a playground getting into a fight over if their invincible shield stops the other guys super attack
