you don't see it. but blockland is being discussed by their community. their admins and developers, in game by players and on their mod/fans sites.
and many of them demo the game here. even if its lot of hate talk, they cant hide the things they like about our game, even if they wont admit it to each other.
for all you know, their developers are considering many updates or changes to the game, or engine because of blockland's influence. not that it helps us really, but this is how everything in the world improves. the 2 immature community's have no effect on each other, other then building a stigma to scare away people from trying both games.
who knows, maybe roblox will make a new version like blockland did, on a different engine and with all sorts of the things you guys like. and could be the leading game that makes us favor it as the awesome sandbox. and thx to the competition for encouraging it.
hell, we were not even aware of retail blockland till it was near release lol. they could have projects to.
yes we loved 0002, but it was far unstable compared to current roblox, nothing is stopping that game from taking a step up also. but if they arnt pushed by any games it could never happen.
just because they arnt competition in our market don't mean, as a sandbox game in general they wont try to keep up with things,
