ps im a genious take that haters

Oh. Sorry, I didn't know. hahaha, sure you are

now you do. the mispell was on purpose

I didn't hate you at first. You were just sharing an idea; a bit arrogant to name it so early, but that was ok. But now... No. Oh, and your username isn't very nice either.

Meh. He's young. I admit, I used to be a bit like him a few years ago.

whats wrong with my username?!
Yeah personally I'm not insanely angry with your method, I just generally don't like the way you presented it, the way you handle yourself, and the way you articulate. You cross me as an arrogant kid no older than 15 who's too lazy to type a little more. I'm not saying I spell perfectly, or talk to perfection, but I put at least a little effort into my posts, especially if I'm posting a new idea like a method. Also just by the words below your name, I can tell you're not my type. And hint;
An all caps "yo moma" type response taking this way to personally doesn't help.

All right I'll try to articulate better but its hard- I'm a very slow typer. Also, I'm only 12 if you want to know. Sorry if I was arrogant; I didnt mean to be. I've had about 30 people in total down rate my vid so that pissed me off... but Il try to improve. What's bad about how I presented my method?

PS the only reason I say ''Location: why should i tell you'' is because I dont want anyone to know where I live. My mom doesn't want me to tell that to strangers.
 
I will try to explain this as clear as possible.
This method is simple. It's not the fastest.
It uses a fewer amount of moves, this
doesn't necessarily contribute to speed.
You don't need to really hate on him.
Naming it that early was arrogant.
I would rather use Freestyle block building.
Freestyle Blocking building is based around the
concept of just building blocks in the most
efficient and fastest way. I use Fridrich though.

Well, as dbax0999 said, you could've just put nothing. A cursory look around the forum would reveal that plenty of users don't even have a location given. Saying "why should i tell you" just makes you look like a jerk - people reading the thread aren't implicitly asking "what's your location?" and expecting an answer, so telling them "I won't tell you where I live" right off the bat does nothing but give a bad first impression.

Honestly, when people are giving you bad responses, I think it is more about your attitude than about your method. If you really are 12, well done for discovering something new (to you) on your own, even though the cubing community already knew about it. It's just that the way you presented it - immediately naming it after yourself, asking that everyone who watches the video subscribe to your channel, providing only a 10-minute video when you could've posted a quick text explanation that would take less than a minute to read, spamming the topic instead of being calm and/or polite, saying outright that you're a genius (whether it's true or not) - caused many people to want to flame you rather than objectively looking at your method. If you're new to a community, you have to give a good first impression, because that's all people will know about you when they make the decision on how to respond. Being polite and helpful goes a long way.
 
Two things. It's "block," not "bloc" you mean.

Are you claiming your method is block-building?
I fail to see how it's significantly more block-building than Fridrich.

As far as I know, most methods considered blockbuilding have work by extending block parts or creating entire new blocks at each step. Your method builds a column (I wouldn't really call it a block instead, due to its characteristics), inserts 4 edges, and continues.

But that's debatable, nd perhaps Kenneth has something good to say.

Not much, it is as always; nothing new to it, most methods are already explored by me and many others. Block building is neat, it saves turns and can be done in many ways. But the problem with it is, as said above, the look ahead, you need to find more pices for each operation. Using F2L you only need 2 at the time, for most block methods you need 3 or possibly 4 and that is slow to find. My average is about 10 turns more for F2L but it is still faster than any block method I know.
 
What's bad about how I presented my method?
First impression is important, and you screwed that up. Even before your message and video. You had the thread title in all CAPS with several question marks and exclamation points (fixed that for you). I'm sure that this YELLING ticked people off right away. You don't enter a new community and start screaming HEY EVERYBODY LISTEN UP HERE I AM AND I'M IMPORTANT. You just don't.

Then you failed to provide a concise and textual description of the method. Which is quite annoying because we really don't want to watch a ten minutes video just to probably find out you have nothing new or interesting to offer. Plus I believe many of the sheep replying "Or you could use Petrus" thought your method *is* Petrus, partly because the first "Or you could use Petrus" kinda suggested it is, and partly because of the missing description of what it really is.

All that set the direction and then you became a victim of wannabe-cool haters. Although you did spam back quite heavily. I found both sides quite pathetic and deleted 135 junk posts in this thread, by far a new record (for me, at least).
