Quick Post
Im updating drivers on the server, found some missing ones that may help with stability. As a result as of this message and probably 30 to 45 minutes from posting the computer will be tied up and the server down.

You say hello, I say 'why is that bit of gravel on top of your house?'
Hello to all the members of SNG(goodgodthisnameistoolong)X2GTHDR! This is ShiningRayde, or Tyler to those who know me, and as mentioned previously, I've been appointed Land Manager. I did this mainly through bribery, but also due to my prodigious skills in design and construction. Or, you know, half-assed talent.
My job, as outlined by Roboto, is primarily to sniff out the corruption of the poorly designed, and either discuss with the owner ways to improve upon the structure - either in aesthetics or simple theme - or to recommend deletion.
Don't mention it, hold your applause.
However, first, I would like to draw your attention to a video that I've enjoyed, that should help some of you who don't know what to do to make things pretty, get your craft-legs on.
X's Adventures in Minecraft: A little about Design
And, to follow that up, three wonderfully done videos, time compressions of impressive projects. They average about 6-10 minutes in length, and are just incredible. Big props to Firedragon and BruteAllMighty (God, I hope I got the names right. You guys talk fast D:)
Episode 1: Asian themed Temple and Zen Garden
Episode 2: Valley of Heroes
Episode 3: City of Arches, Roman/Greek Theme
With these videos combined, you should start to have some crazy ideas in your head, like showing off awesome buildings in awesome places. And that's good! Get out there, and show off something you've learned. Make a new house somewhere, and be proud of it.
And I'll come along, declare it an eyesore, and burn it all to the ground.
Again, don't mention it.

Land Manager
(ShiningRayde's position does not specifically mention burning things to the ground. Any threats of burnings should not be taken seriously and are probably because you're bad at taking sarcasm. Please see your doctor immediately for a pill for the massive amounts of butthurt you're going through.)

New Author
We have ShiningRayde as a coauthor on this blog now. He is taking on the specific title of Land Manager. We still have some problems going on with non-themed building going on in the Forest Town.
What this means is that he will be in charge of making sure people do not cause massive land scarring, and do not build giant phallus objects across the world. He will also be in charge of deciding what stays and goes in community areas, with my blessing.
He is also a great builder, and is a great resource for helping to decide what to build in community areas, and has a lot of great ideas. So feel free to ask him some questions.
