I know all of these suggestions have been mentioned before, but please reply any way and let me argue for them before the thread gets locked. I would love to play blocktlava, but they are very off putting to me joining.
1 - Shorter rounds.
I read the other threads, I read the read before post, but its still the number one off putting thing about block lava. I have read that its works here, since this place has been around forever but for me its super boring.
A player build a house, cave, etc. And then sits in it for 25 minutes jumping and typing anything into the chat box to not get afk kicked. It would be more inviting for users if the lava last 5 or 6 minutes. Enough time to get to the walls off the house, and test if it was good or not.
Lava survival is not freebuild, It should be about surviving, trying to build a house in 6 minutes that's good enough to survive the lava. If you make windows, a bed and a shower then more power to your great job.
38 minutes till end of round.... really? and its the weak lava that doesnt eat blocks and last 25 minutes? yawn. bye.
but but but... they will get too many cocos? What are they going to do with the cocos? buy controller rank? Its not a problem, and if it was then raise the store prices
I know its be said many times before, but many people have come and gone because of it. I dont want to sit around for 25 minutes in my box making beds and waiting for the idiot next to me to grief it. Yes I know there are shorter rounds, but 15, 20 and 25 is way to long. Sometimes I just want to play for 15 minutes! If you log in, 15 minutes to round end and its all ready flooded for 10 minutes, well what can I do?
Suggestions - 6 minute build time, 6 minute lava.
2 - Small maps
The maps are huge, and it takes ages for the lava to get there. Such as paradise is way too tall. you could half the high of that place. its 64x64x64. 50x50x25, use adminium if it has to be square.
A small map would let the lava get to the houses quicker, and you might get to meet some friends rather than run off to some far corner.
suggestion - 50x50x25 , or 64x64x64 with half the high blocked by adminium.
3 - afk time.
6 minute aka kick. that's not long enough for some afk activities. If your server was full, and you needed the slots, then I expect one of the 30 members on line would have a rank high enough for kicking.
suggestion - after 4 minutes - 'player is AFK'. Then after 20 minutes, auto kick.
4 /b
well not so important, but I'l add it to the list. just to know who built what, so I can say thank you or, hey whats this!

I know these will have been said many times before, but that's for a reason. I really want to play in this community, but I dont think I can stomach playing on the classic lava with rounds that long. I want action, and a scramble to build quickly with an adrenalin rush of oh no here comes the lavaaaaahh!
So, I have made that suggestion.
