Blockland ID



A Blockland ID, or BL_ID, is a player's identification number within the game that is tied to their registration key. Even if a player changes their name, their ID stays the same, so other players can always identify the person belonging to their ID.

Number of BL_IDs
There is no certain way to determine the exact number of registered IDs on Blockland. However, some users manually keep lists of IDs, some current. Currently, the most trusted source of ID listings is Return to Blockland (RTB). Kalphiter also has a noteworthy ID listing. As of May 2019, there are over 250,000 IDs registered. As of Blockland v19, the max is 999999. If you look in the console, you could see you have this BL_ID in Single Player.

Users that share the same BL_ID
The only means by which users can share a BL_ID is by utilizing it from the same network using multiple computers. During this, names and tags may be changed. After one logs out, these might be randomized. If users who are not on the same network attempt to utilize the same BL_ID at once, they will quickly, and exponentially gain potential of having the BL_ID deactivated.

Where can I get a different BL_ID?
Since BL_IDs are obtained for a price through official channels, it is illegal to deal BL_IDs to other users. However, Badspot, the owner of Blockland and thus within his rights, sold ID 10,000 in Spring of 2009 for $20 through eBay. Attempting to sell a BL_ID may result in deactivation of the ID, as well as the primary owned by the user.

Stereotypes of BL_IDs
The highest BL_IDs are looked down upon, as they are considered the newest users and such possibly a nuisance due to their inexperience with the community. This can be false in some cases, and partially true in others. As such situations occur in a wide range of situations, older users tend to decide against giving notice to such arguments unless directly influenced. It should be noted that some users having high BL_IDs could possibly be older users requiring new IDs for one reason or another. However, it should also be noted the some users with high BLI_IDs could be trolls attempting to avoid blame.
