Speculations and Theories

Many users suggested that Blockate was shut down for being a copy of Blocklr or for just being too similar to Roblox, but these claims were radical and not very credible.

Another theory is that Blockate's head developer, Fewkz, had broke Roblox terms of service and got Blockate shut down; However this theory was also not very credible. 

The most credible and believable theory is that the player-base has caused the shutdown, with many users thinking they were funny by building "items" that were against Roblox ToS, or more likely, the use of Discord Links.

Another theory is that it was shut down because of a popular game using copyrighted material from the Pokemon Franchise, although it was debunked.

According to Twitter, the Blockate team are trying to “Make The Game Playable Again”. This does mean that Blockate is going to have a comeback, what really made it not playable has not definition answer yet. We can only guess why it was gone. It came back on September 30th.
