The Better Mod, All-in-One Reloaded, Block Land Mods and Return to Blockland.[edit]

Wrongfully speedied, rightfully unspeedied, but despite protestations of editors I think not notable. Google for "The Better Mod" Blockland gets about 50 unique hits, including mirrors. I would simply merge and redirect, but (a) the mod is already mentioned in Blockland and (b) it's tagged as disputed anyway, and I would not know how much is valid. In the end this is a large article on a very very trivial subject with no apparent claim to wider importance. Just zis  Guy, you know? [T]/[C] 15:09, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Addendum JzG's comments above apply only to The Better Mod: I've extended this AfD to cover All-in-One Reloaded, Block Land Mods and Return to Blockland per my comment below. I do not think any of them have enough independent interest to support an article, they should be either deleted or merged into a stronger article. Additionally the editors who raised the DRV were concerned that their mod was being treated in an unfair manner by proponents of rival game mods: in the interests of fairness I think it befits us to consider the related game mods side by side. --- Charles Stewart(talk) 16:43, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete, per nom. Any legitmate info on this should be mentioned in Blockland. PJM 15:21, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Merge into Blockland or a new Blockland game modifications. --- Charles Stewart(talk) 16:16, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comment - Other game mods exist, eg. All-in-One Reloaded, Block Land Mods, Return to Blockland. Can we expand this AfD to cover these? They should be treated together, I think. --- Charles Stewart(talk) 16:19, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
    • Following disucssion with JzG, AfD extended. --- Charles Stewart(talk) 16:43, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

dUMBELLS: RTB was only partly responsable for this, the admins have the word and should have the word.

I fail to see how RTB is even remotely responsible for this. Mocheeze 00:06, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete covering the whole lot, would also accept merge for any that are not already in Blockland. Just zis  Guy, you know? [T]/[C] 17:19, 9 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Delete TBM creators won't allow anyone to remove POV, or talk about it in the article's discussion. Mocheeze 00:06, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete as per nom.Blnguyen 00:37, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete All as discussed by Charles Stewart. The children that started this little fetish did so out of spite, so their trivial comments about small free game should be removed and more or less relegated to the discussion section of the Blockland entry. Probably with a few links to actual working pages in the mods section of the entry as all legitimate information about a mod would be listed on thier website. Furthermore, these elleged POV comments about TBM are not simple POV, they are unfounded, unresearched, and untrue. Put an end to these childish cock fights, delete the lot of them.

  • Delete All per Charles Stewart -- Thesquire (talk - contribs) 06:08, 10 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete All a game mod would have to be really really notable to get its own article. Counter-Strike is one of the few examples. Since the host game Blockland is pretty marginal itself, I can't see mods of it having articles. I dint even think there's much here worth merging.

  • Delete as per norm. MCP seems to think if he is going down, he'll bring everyone else down with him. That is uncalled for.-EnCarnate 02:19, 11 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete All I say delete it all, and then link to the blockland forums, they can get there mods or whatever there. I fail to see the purpose for all mods to have wiki pages, it seems like pointless advertising to me. Rotondo -
    • LOL nice sneaky comment there Rotondo "link to the blockland forums".MCP 03:20, 12 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • RTB dislikes TBM with there huge community and over shadows them with this delete shit NOW ME FOR ONE, HATE THESE STUPID hypocrites who do that so RTB lay off TBM and we will lay off you alright.by: ClavaTon the really pissed off lad. Translation "Come on RTB, don't you think everyone has had enough of all this jelousy and hate? I know I have."
