When you press C and look at the Active page, you can see some worlds that are pretty repetitive. Some popular examples are the ffthe following:

These are just some examples of repetitive Blockate worlds, and we highly suggest for you not to make one of these. Our goal here is to make Blockate less boring and repetitive and bring new things to the table, Andwhich ifwill youpull wantmore visitsplayers towards Blockate and nothingkeep else.the game alive. Try and think of an original concept, something nobody has thought of before.

One way to make your world more attractive is by adding a thumbnail! The thumbnail must be made by you, or a friend! Why can't you just pick a decal that's in the library you ask? Well, because people tend to join worlds that have custom thumbnails, and it shows that you're putting effort into your build,.

Having a good moderation team is essential in making a unique world. You can't just give people permissions to build because they're your friend, or they're begging, you're going to have to interview them first. Maybe make them send an application through google forms, your choice. Making a world on your own is quite hard to do, and also takes a lot of time. If you want help from people, but don't want them ruining your world when you're offline, you can !perm them, and then when you leave, set them back to visitor. That way, you can get help from people without risking your world.

If you're going to try doing this, you need dedication. You need to make sure you won't get bored of building. You can do this! Keep building! There is always some part in your world that could use re-painting, updating, fixing, smoothing or whatnot. Keep adding more stuff, as that will show others you are serious about your world and that you put a lot of effort into it.

Blockate has been really stale lately. Not a lot of good worlds are on the active page, and players are getting alotloads of Blux just by making lazily done worlds. Blockate needs to be better again, and we need to inspire others to think the same.
