About BlockCommmunity
General information and history
BlockCommunity is a project aiming to create a 3D multiplayer sandbox game extensible with Lua, supported by a community site with features such as asset sharing, clans/groups, a collaborative wiki and a discussion forum. BlockCommunity was created in July 2009, over 2 years ago, with a website launched in September 2009. Since then, we've progressed a lot with ideas, comments and feedback from various users and staff, and lost and gained staff and users.
Our staff
We have 14 staff members located in different places and timezones in the United States and United Kingdom. BlockCommunity does not have a single physical address or office. We have 2 main classes of staff: moderators, who police the site to keep it clean and civil, and administrators, who work on the website or game.
