Accountability would go out the window with a significant increase in players (ROBLOX levels). Right now, we are such a tight-knit community that we can all watch over one another and hold each other accountable for each other's forget-ups. Games like ROBLOX and GMod with their millions of players don't even have things like the Drama board to regulate its player base. If someone does something bad there, it gets forgotten and they don't learn from their mistakes. While that may be mostly true here as well, the Drama board does convert some jackasses into good people. With a massive increase in players would come a STAGGERING increase in bad players, and it would be difficult to keep track of all of them.
The notion that development would skyrocket substantially is also flawed. Sure, there are a few diamonds in the rough, but think about how many among us are noteworthy devs right now in this community. Taking cues from ROBLOX and GMod, you could easily expect what Carlin called children; "A few winners, a WHOLE LOT of LOSERS." Also, keep in mind that most of the """""development""""" in these games is repeated copies of previously-made work. Blockland filters that out. So what do you get really?
It would be awesome to have a few more dedicated players. The levels you're talking about, though, are WAY too much for a game/community like this.
i mean to be fair, having a drama board to "regulate players" is a pretty weird idea in the first place, and it kinda only spawned from the fact that blockland was a small enough community that it made sense to have a place to publicly place grievances with specific users. tbh there really isn't much of an in-game reason to have a drama board because we have ban and kick functionality that works fine; the only other time it'd be useful is if there's some exploit goin around or smth, but even that can be disseminated by other means (general discussion topics for instance).
also idk what you mean in the second part. if you have more users capable of creating content, more content will be made. there's literally always more useless mods than outstanding ones no matter which game you're talking about. regardless, there's zero downside to having more people creating content. people who make stuffty mods today can make great mods in a year or so down the line, and if you have more content creators in the community, you automatically have a higher chance of people creating new mods that people actually want to use.
