So I obviously went offline for a while. I figured the blogging life wasn't the life for me, but then I realized it didn't have to be about my life. Just views and what I'm doing here on the Internet.
Over the time while I was away, I have obtained a growing passion for the game Blockland which is pretty much a more realistic, reasonable and mature version of Roblox. It has better graphics, a better community and more possibilities. You can browse the forums and look at other peoples' work, and be amazed because nothing you'll ever see on Roblox will amount to it. I love the games' interface, the way building and other such events work. It's simpler and more conservative, but the shit they do to the game and the community is total bullshit. The game lags at random points, the brick count can't safely go above 3000 and the FPS goes to shit whenever there's more than a few hundred on your screen. The community is full of four year olds that think that bullshit IMA FIREN MAH LAZOR fad is the most hilarious thing they've ever seen, begging people to get you stuff is the way to go, and building something yourself is unheard of. I have total respect for the game but not at all for the community. You get curious as to what's popular and what people are playing that might be fun and you run in to shit like this and you die a little inside. People get their stupid little work they didn't even create on the front page, and they realize people want to see this shitty games, no matter how cliche and stupid they are. You can go to the Blockland forum Gallery and witness great works, some of the greatest that beats even what Roblox players are even capable of doing and you find stuff like this that makes you want to shit your pants. The servers are massive, the community is skilled and helpful and it's just a wonderland of good experiences.
Also, a public service announcement, punch anyone who thinks there is a war between these two games. Both games have their pros and cons. Little kids from Roblox somehow believe that simply because they only play Roblox that it's better. Fuck you. You're just stupid. Give up on your life because you're never going to mature.
And of honorable mention, I just want to note if you play Blockland, you guys need to keep up with IcyGamma's new "radio show" - Blockland on Air. It's an idea almost everyone creative on the internet has had, creating and maintaining something involved with media, only it's done very professionally and well here. You can view his blog here. He currently only has a few episodes out but they are very entertaining. He brings in people of reputation, normally, and interviews them. He asks them what they think in general, key concepts about the game, important matters, and occasionally he simply allows random people to join and see what they all think. It's pretty cool, in my opinion. This concludes this shout out.
If you have any suggestions or ideas for future blog posts here on Caution; Thinking, feel free to throw me some. Looking forward to talking to you again soon.
