The question presented in this poll is simply, "Should we start a Make Blockland Great Again movement?" Details come later, this is just to see if we could have the support to begin one.

I think the fact that school shooting simulators are the top servers some days, we're a little past making this game great again.


Well it needs some type of advertising, updates regularly, updates that have some actual impact, good impact,hair and hats, some good ded servers, and something like irc chat

Oh indeed; this poll is just to see if there's a demand for a movement.

and all of this wont happen. just because you guys bought badspot's game doesnt mean he has an obligation to update it when just coming up to 10 years old. the community runs the game now.

badspot does not own the engine the game was made on so it cannot become open source

Damn, that sucks.
But isnt there a difference between opensourcing the game code and the engine code?

the game code is already practically open source - the few encryped source files (.dso) have even been partially or fully decompiled. modders can already do everything - what's preventing progress is access to the modified engine so we can write new functions or .dlls (more easily) or modify the base game itself that take advantage of inaccessible engine functions or modify existing engine functions to work differently

the inherent problem with this is that theres no way to make such changes official and having some sort of process would require a lot of time on badspots end to read code written by modders. more likely than not, the community would become fragmented over whatever unofficial versions there are, and the few malicious users have the potential to give bl a bad rep by writing versions that are literal viruses


Glad we're all having a civil discussion here.

we need to have good relations with roblox
Also, make blokeland great again

Does anyone still care about Torque? Maybe Badspot could just go "Hey, guys who made torque, can I release this?" and they'd say yes.
