10 000 blocks max.?

Post by Kittle »

So I read on the builder worlds the maximum blocks to use is 10 000? However I saw a build using 1 842 885 on Builder35.

So is it a rule or not?

Also, not trying to be rude but the server's staff is not very good. Most of them ignore me all the time. Only a few veterans and ops ever answered to questions/comments I've had... Comparatively, the masons and architects are always glad to help me.

No, 10000 limit means maximum surface area as marked on the ground, not the volume of your build.

To my understanding the 10,000 block rule was put in place to prevent Builders from reserving massive spaces for themselves, and then never using the space. So long as the space is used, there is no problem afaik.

No comment on the staff rant.

It isn't a "rule", it's a "guideline" that you may choose to follow or not, however if you choose not to, we may just choose to remove your rank. It's about respect for space, not banning you if you have 10 001 blocks.

I also take slander against our ops VERY seriously. If there is a problem that you would like to specifically address, then please PM with the pm button at the bottom left of this post. If you were just slightly frustrated, please watch what you say. Respect goes both ways.

Volume does not = area. If you had measured around the builds perimeter im sure your figures would have been more accurate.

Not trying to be rude? Im sorry, but how is this not? Many ops are either busy or caught up in operation duties. We cant be at every builders beck and call every minute of the day.

Well to be fair, I'm also fed up of builders calling vets to look at their builds for advice... it's not our build! Do it yourself!

On topic: It's just the blocks placed

Wtf? You could just say "sorry not interested". There is nothing wrong with asking advice. Calm down.

Okay, I'm not necessarily angry, just fed up, and I don't like turning people down, and if I do, I pass the burden on

We are all here to build, and to share our creations with others. May I ask what it is that you are so busy with that you cannot bear the burden of sharing?

Granted, I build myself, I don't pester others though, if I do, inform me about it
